Dr. Mark T. Jones

Apostle & Founder

Manifestations Worldwide Inc.

Very often, people of purpose and destiny fail to leave an ineradicable mark on either society or mankind, only to retreat

to the heavens without maximizing their God-given and intended potential. Dr. Mark T. Jones, Sr. is not only maximiz-

ing what God has deposited in him, but he is also empowering the people of God to fulfill their purpose on the earth. In

this season, he is a voice for the voiceless. His messages compel the attention of those who seek to discover their pur-

pose in life and launch their destiny.

Christian Celebrity is perhaps the most contra purpose term that I have ever heard of.

The bible says that the Master of the universe, made Himself of no reputation, taking on

the form of a servant, and humbled himself even unto the point of death, while doing so

in complete anonymity to manifest the Father’s will of creating a way of redemption for

all mankind.

Yet it seems that in the church, some people take great delight in pumping, pushing, and

flattering man’s ego to his demise. Making of him a Christian idol in the church. Refus-

ing to see the humanness of the broken vessel being used by God, until God allows

something to happen that is rather distasteful, either in actuality or in perception.

It seems only then, do we scurry back to an appropriate way of reasoning about one an-

other, and only then do we examine our own proclivity for failure.

It is my prayer that the church will learn to enjoy the fellowship of the Spirit, the beauty

of brethren dwelling together in unity, and the sobriety of respecting the varying roles

and assignments in the body of Christ without allowing IDOLATRY to seep into our

midst.

Lord grant us the glorious grace that causes us to walk humbly and to choose

SIMPLICITY

Many have heard the old saying “when life gives

you lemons make lemonade”. But a new one I will

add is “when life gives you lemons squeeze the

juice in the enemies eyes”. Many of us have gone

thru things in this journey of our existence and

wondered how can or will I ever recover from it

and how can apply this to the purpose of God in

my life.

2co 1:3Blessed be God, even the Father of our

Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the

God of all comfort;

2co 1:4Who comforteth us in all our tribulation,

that we may be able to comfort them which are in

any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we our-

selves are comforted of God.

2co 1:5For as the sufferings of Christ abound in

us, so our consolation also aboundeth by Christ.

2co 1:6And whether we be afflicted, it is for your

consolation and salvation, which is effectual in the

enduring of the same sufferings which we also

suffer: or whether we be comforted, it is for your

consolation and salvation.

All of us want life to be better or want to be con-

vinced that it will be. When God looks over our

life will he find us still dwelling in the painful

place that he knows that he healed and delivered

us from, the place where we are no longer in cap-

tivity to the things that once had us bound, from

the painful things that have happened to us or will

he truly find in the place where we are comforting

others.

Satan has from the beginning of time have been

trying to maim or disfigure us in order to keep us

from resting in the perfect will and peace of God.

Mt 15:30And great multitudes came unto him,

having with them those that were lame, blind,

dumb, maimed, and many others, and cast them

down at Jesus' feet; and he healed them:

Mt 15:31Insomuch that the multitude wondered,

when they saw the dumb to speak, the maimed to

be whole, the lame to walk, and the blind to see:

and they glorified the God of Israel.

Because of the “LEMONS” have you ever felt that

you were not good enough to serve God or for God

to use? Do you ever look at some of the lifestyle

choices you made and feel inadequate? Are you

struggling in an area of your life right now that

causes you to question whether you are valuable to

God or the people around you. Rahab is a key ex-

ample to remind us that no matter what your cir-

cumstance or mistakes or even your inadequacies

were God will honor whatever steps of faith we

take. Yet, if we think about Rahab's life, her faith

shines even brighter. She is an outcast, a prostitute.

Rejected by society, she still trusts that the Lord

will not reject her.

GOD USED THE “LEMONS” FROM RAHAB’S

PAST MISTAKES AND HER CHARACTER

FLAWS

What will he do with the lemons of your past?

DON'T LET YOUR PAST KEEP YOU FROM

GOD’S BEST FOR YOUR LIFE

So again what ever lemons satan has dished at

you , remember God can make lemonade.

"WHEN LIFE GIVES YOU LEMONS"

The Poet’s Corner Possessing the Spirit of a Writer

Sister Jennifer Cole

Discontentment is a negative feeling

It leaves you in a state not so appealing

All your fun and pleasures are taken

Causing you a sad awakening

It comes to steal, kill and destroy

Your every dream it shall deploy

It's only by God's mercy and grace

That you are sustained through the maze

Uncontrollable emotions is the flow of the day

While life threatening shots are being fired

Dodging the bullets with the word as we pray

Oh lord to you I come weary and tired

DIS. is a negative activity from the devil

CON. is the follow up strategy to get you on his side

TENT. is what he builds to cover you with his lies

Then his desires are played out in your life exactly how he

MENT it to be.

So Lord we pray that in your love we stay

Give us humility and temperance all the way

That in only YOU our hearts will be CONTENT.

DIS-CON-TENT-MENT

Hi! My name is Donna Dorfer, I am from Syracuse,

N.Y. I moved down to Florida 11 years ago to go to

bible school and I have been here every since.

I started coming to CFM about 4 months ago. I learned

about this ministry through the television broadcast.

From the first time I came, I felt the presence of God. I

had been looking for a church home and it didn't take

long before I knew I had found it. I love how warm

and welcoming the congregation is and how free they

are to worship. Each week as I come to church, I feel the layers peeling off and my

mind being renewed. I am amazed and blessed by the variety of powerful gifts the Lord

has placed in Apostle Mark! His love, humility and self sacrifice is a great example for

me. I loved the teaching series about the finished work of Christ. I need to hear it again

and again and know it is foundational for life and ministry. I will begin attending the

Deliverance Team Training. I do not know all the reasons God has brought me here but

I do know His plans are always good and I am looking forward to all He has!

~Presents~

HEALTHY CHALLENGE COOK OFF “So, You Think You Can Cook!”

The Healthy cooking sample day was a success.

Participants had a chance to “Taste and See” that a typical

meal that is normally prepared in an unhealthy way, could be

prepared healthy while maintaining the taste and flavor.

The first CFM cooking team had a chance to showcase their

healthy cooking skills and explain to the participants how

they prepared their meal.

The participants had a chance to sample the meal and evalu-

ate it in four categories: Taste, Presentation, Creativity, and

Educational Crossover.

~ Elder Emerson & Leola Tillman

Hello CFM family! I had a wonderful experience with the CFM healthy cook off. I tasted some wonderful but simple dishes that were 100% healthy and surprisingly very tasteful. As some of you know, I have been blessed to find a ministry that teaches eating and liv-ing healthy from God’s perspective. Temple Maintenance Ministry at CFM is on the move and doing just that. Since I have been here I have already lost between 65-80 lbs. I am not telling the pounds until I have reached my goal. But as a result of their diligent efforts to teach us how to be healthy I have been able to do great things to help my eating hab-its. I learned on the day of cook off tasting that I can eat healthy and enjoy it. I had two helpings and did not feel full or stuffed. But was very satisfied. Full course meal and a wonderful desert. Big ups, God bless to all who shared their recipes. Now I have a new full course meal and desert to add to my new life style change of eating healthy and lov-ing it. To the CFM TEMPLE MAINTAINTANCE MINISRTY “thank

you” (STAY ON THE WALL) - Vincent Shannon

To the Temple Maintenance team as well as the Wonderful chefs that prepared the first

round of the healthy cooking challenge. The dishes were wonderfully prepared. I enjoyed

the presentation of each individual. Truly it was an honor to be received as one of

your taste testers. I learned that if I take the time and do the research every meal I enjoy

can be cooked so that it is healthier and more beneficial to my body. Thank you so much,

I know that as you continue your challenge it will only get better each time.

Blessings,

Sister Juana Mapps

Sings of Maturity

In this series, Dr. Jones teaches

the believer the importance of

being rooted and grounded.

Have you ever needed your car fixed or your home air conditioning unit serviced? Have you ever needed to speak

to a lawyer, or see a doctor? Or are you an accountant, a computer technician, or are you a landscaper?

"It's in the House", ministry can connect you to someone who provides these services. And the amazing thing

about, "It's in the House" ministry is, the providers of these services are a group of Christian people willing to ser-

vice with honesty and integrity and won't take advantage of you.

"It's in the House" is asking CFM

family to be part of this great min-

istry. How? If you are an account-

ant, lawyer, technician, mechanic,

or have a trade, please sign up at

the welcome center or drop your

business card in the glass jar.

We look forward to hearing from

you and can't wait to share your

skills and services with others

Who are you? Stop take a couple of minutes

from reading any more of this and try to hon-

estly answer this question…

What’s your answer? Hard question to answer

huh? Not that simple. This question has reso-

nated in my spirit for the past couple of weeks

as we get geared up to teach this new series to

ESO.

It seems that as I thought of this, parts of me

screamed in disappointment or anger because

what I saw was not what I see in the scriptures.

Then other parts where tormented with the

thought of what I would have to give up in or-

der to look more like Christ. It was a battle of

the mind in the very sense of this thought.

I was listening to a song written by a rap artist

named Da’Truth and he poses this question to

the listening audience:

“If the Bible was re written and the writers put

me in it, I wonder how my life would read?”

Now ask yourself that, what would people

think? Would you be the David or a Golioath

in a story that others will read and be inspired

or disgusted? Would you be the Hero or the

Villain? Would you have a story of faith or

unbelief? Would you be generous or full of

greed?

Psalms 139:14 (NIV) “I praise you because I

am fearfully and wonderfully made; your

works are wonderful,

I know that full well.”

I praise God yes because even though I am dif-

ferent he still loves me. The problem I have

with this verse is God made me “Fearfully”

that is a word that is to mean in reverent awe

of God. Do I exemplify this to the world?

When I am in Wal-Mart do people get awe

struck because of their interaction with God as

they pass me by?

It goes on to say that I am “Wonderfully

made” as if I am perfect… God made me per-

fect and beautiful. Think about a car, just be-

cause its paint job is nice doesn't make it a nice

car, the engine that moves it must be good and

all things that work with it that make it a Car,

must be working as good as the paint job

looks. If not it’s a heap of metal and nothing

more.

When God made us He made the engine first

and that’s the wonderful part the outside ap-

pearance is just a bonus. Do I within myself,

set the example that was left when He made

me? Am I truly worthy of being “Wonderful?”

We all are to be what God wants us to be but

are we being that? Find out this month during

this new series.- P. Al

This is the season to

Manifest…..

Marlesia Dr. Jones, Lady Lisa, Mark Jr.,

Our Vision

Proverbs 29: 18 “Where there is no vision the people perish.

Our vision is to teach the end-time church of the essence of kingdom life, and to communicate deep,

spiritual truth in a simplified manner.

The center for Manifestation was released from the heart of God to be a refreshing force to the body of

Christ. While the central theme and essence of this ministry is to prepare the way for the second com-

ing of the Lord Jesus Christ, in part this purpose is accomplished by retraining the saints as to what

their God given roles and responsibilities in the church are. It is also the vision of this ministry to

bring healing and deliverance to those who have been hindered from moving into position for the lat-

ter rains.

This is the season for the manifestation of the sons of God!
