Prevailing Words From the Apostle 1st Lady Lisa Jones The Poet’s Corner (and more)

Dr. Mark T. Jones Sr. First Lady Lisa Jones

Apostle / Founder Manifestations Worldwide, Inc.

Manifestations Worldwide Vision

Our vision is to teach the end-times church of the essence of kingdom life, and to communicate deep, spiritual truths 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 coming 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 latter rains.

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

Apostle`s Prevailing Word

Crave for God! As a young man in ministry, I was ordained and given the privilege of serving in many capacities, which in essence served to give me a "360" of how ministries operate. I also watched as some people in the church jostled for position, longed for prominence, and struggle for prestige, WHILE ABUSING AND MISUSING OTHERS. Interestingly enough, none of those things concerned me. My commitment, my focus, and my only craving was, and is for more of Him! Out of the madness, on July 12, 1996 at 12:03 am, the Lord spoke to me, "Learn wisdom from men's mistakes, there is a lot that you will see, that I do not want you to repeat".

From this God given, sobering account of what was happening in ministries around me, God began giving me the basis for effectiveness in life and ministry.....

CRAVE GOD ONLY! To my sons and my daughters, who are aspiring to become something wonderful, lose that aspiration, and CRAVE GOD ONLY! To those who lead with me, and are tempted to become inebriated by your position, stop the madness, and CRAVE GOD ONLY! To those who watch us, who are wondering what life and ministry is all about, never desire to be like us, never desire to be where we are,

never desire to be known for anything other than this, THAT YOUR DELIGHT, AND ALL OF YOUR CRAVING, WAS FOR AND OF THE LORD! Dr. Mark T. Jones Sr.

Ladies Accepting Deliverance & Identifying Enemy Strongholds with

First Lady Lisa Jones  WOW 2008 HAS COME TO A CLOSE BUT NOW IN 2009 WE MUST REALIZE THAT LIFE STILL GOES ON! MANY HAVE ASKED WHAT IS IT TO CHRISTIANITY IF WE CAN'T DO SO MANY THINGS TO HAVE FUN, MY REPLY HAS BEEN “TO THINGS LIKE WHAT?” AND BELIEVE IT OR NOT BELIEVERS MANY BELIEVERS ARE SAVED BUT ARE WALKING IN THE MINDSET OR HAVE THE HEART OF THE SIN NATURE. IT'S SAD THAT THE ENEMY HAVE CAPTURED THE MINDS OF SO MANY TO CAUSE FRUSTRATION BECAUSE WE THINK WE CAN'T HAVE FUN AND ENJOY THE FREEDOM THAT IS GIVEN TO US. MANY REFRAIN FROM COMMITTING THEIR WHOLE PERSON TO THE LORD BECAUSE THEY CAN'T DRINK OR CLUB (THE THINGS THEY THINK IS FUN) YEAH WE CAN ADMIT WE ALL THOUGHT THAT THIS LIFE WAS BORING AT ONE TIME OF ANOTHER. BUT THE OPPOSITE REMAINS TO BE TRUE. THE WORD OF GOD DOES GIVE US BOUNDARIES TO THE MANNER IN WHICH WE SHOULD HANDLE OUR FUN JOKES: MATTHEW 12:36 TELLS US THAT EVERY IDLE WORD THAT A MAN SPEAK THEY SHALL GIVE AN ACCOUNT OF THEREFORE IN THE DAY OF JUDGMENT.IN OTHER WORDS DOES THE JOKE I TELL SPEAK IN SUCH A WAY THAT THE HOLY SPIRIT WOULD BE GRIEVED, DOES MY JOKES CAUSE THE STUMBLING OF ANOTHER BELIEVER BY LEAVING IMAGES OR THOUGHTS THAT THEY WILL HAVE TO WAR AGAINST. CAN THE WORDS OR THE CONTENTS OF THE JOKES BE USED TO THE UP BUILDING OF THE KINGDOM?

 FUN IN MY MARRIAGE:  HEBREWS 13:4 MARRIAGE IS HONORABLE IN ALL, AND THE BED IS UNDEFILED BUT THE WHOREMONGER AND ADULTERERS GOD WILL JUDGE. MARRIED FOLK PLEASE STOP ASKING ABOUT PORN AND POSITIONAL PREFERENCES. PORN OPENS THE DOOR FOR ADULTERY AND COMPROMISE.IT CREATES IMAGES THAT YOU HAVE TO WAR AGAINST IT HAS A STRONGHOLD OF LUST THAT YOU CAN'T SEEM TO FLEE FROM. MANY SAY THEY WATCH IT TO LEARN TECHNIQUES TO PLEASE THEIR SPOUSE{LIES YOU TELL IT IS A ADDICTION THAT YOU CAN'T BREAK FROM}. IF YOU HAVE PERFORMANCE PROBLEMS ASK GOD TO HELP YOU SINCE IT WAS HIS IDEA FOR INTIMACY IN THE RELATIONSHIP. SIMPLY THIS THE BEDROOM EXPERIENCE IS THE RESULT OF THE FUN THAT A COUPLE EXPERIENCE BEFORE IT'S TIME FOR THE SEX ACT. FUN IN GENERAL: (CLUBBING, DRINKING, DANCING) PROVERBS 20:1 WINE IS MOCKER, STRONG DRINK IS RAGING AND WHOSOEVER IS DECEIVED HEREBY IS NOT WISE MANY WILL CONTEND TO SAY THAT IT ONLY TALKS ABOUT BEING DRUNK, BUT IT TELLS US THAT WE SHOULD NOT BECOME DECEIVED IT HINDERS OUR ABILITY TO TO ABLE TO OBTAIN WISDOM FROM THE LORD. HOW MANY TIMES HAVE YOU DRANK AND SOMEBODY TOLD YOU HOW IGNORANT YOU WAS OR BETTER YET YOU REGRETTED SOMETHING THAT HAPPENED BECAUSE OF A SIP FROM A CUP. CONDEMNATION SETS IN MAKING ONE RUN FROM THE PRESENCE OF THE LORD LUKE 1:15 FOR HE SHALL BE GREAT IN THE SIGHT OF THE LORD, AND SHALL DRINK NEITHER WINE NOR STRONG DRINK AND HE SHALL BE FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT EVEN FROM HIS MOTHERS' WOMB. YOU ARE A CHOSEN GENERATION A ROYAL PRIEST HOOD BUT YOU WILL NEVER EMBRACE IT BECAUSE YOU WILL NOT ALLOW YOUR SELF TO BE CONSECRATED FOR THE PURPOSE THAT GOD HAS REDEEMED YOU FROM THE BONDAGE OF SIN. DRINKING TAKES AWAY THE PURENESS OF THE HEART OF THE BELIEVER, JUST AS IT WOULD THE UNBORN CHILD IN THE WOMB OF HIS MOTHER. .

PSALMS 150:2 PRAISE HIM FOR HIS MIGHTY ACTS; PRAISE HIM ACCORDING TO HIS EXCELLENT GREATNESS THE DANCING THAT WE DO SHOULD BE FOR THE PRAISING OF OUR LORD. BASICALLY HOW YOU DANCE DEPICTS WHO YOUR MASTER IS IF YOUR DANCE IS SEDUCTIVE AND PROVOCATIVE THEN YOUR FLESH IS IN CONTROL

 THERE ARE SOME "WORLDLY" DANCES THAT HAS BEEN QUESTIONED AND SOME ARE NO HARM BUT WE HAVE TO BE MINDFUL THAT ALL DON'T SEE IT THAT WAY. SO IT GOES BACK TO NOT CAUSING OUR BROTHER TO STUMBLE IN OUR FREEDOM .DANCING WAS A SIGN OF VICTORY IN THE BIBLE OR FOR THE ONSET OF WARFARE. THE ENEMY PERVERTED THE CONCEPT MAKING US FEEL LIKE WE CAN'T DANCE AS UNTO THE LORD BECAUSE OF THE MANY DANCES THAT THE WORLD HAVE TAKEN FROM THE BELIEVERS AND MADE THEM THEIR OWN. THE FOCUS OF OUR CHRISTIANITY SHOULD NOT BE ON WHAT WE CAN’T DO. YOU LOOSE OUT ON THE THINGS THAT WE CAN DO. GOD SAVED US FROM SIN IN ORDER FOR US TO HAVE LIFE AND LIFE MORE ABUNDANTLY. IF YOU ARE MISERABLE BECAUSE YOU ARE A CHRISTIAN DON'T MAKE THE PEOPLE AROUND YOU MISERABLE BECAUSE THEY KNOW THEIR LIMITS. MANY GO FROM ONE EXTREME OF LIFE TO THE OTHER THE KEY IS BALANCE. WE HAVE TO LIVE BY OUR OWN CONVICTIONS FROM GOD. HE WILL TELL YOU WHERE YOU ARE OUT OF HIS CHARACTER IF WE LISTEN. OUR FUN SHOULDN'T BE A HINDRANCE FOR SOME ELSE TO BE ABLE TO SEE CHRIST IN US.

 OUR FUN SHOULD NOT CAUSE US TO COMPROMISE  WE SHOULD NEVER GRIEVE THE HOLY SPIRIT IN OUR FUN OUR FUN SHOULD NOT CAUSE US TO LOOK LIKE A HYPOCRITE TO OUR FAITH

Join First Lady Lisa the 2nd & 4th Thursday of each month at 7pm. for L.A.D.I.E.S. meeting! (at the Center)

The Poet’s Corner “Possessing the Spirit of The Writer”

Sis. Jennifer Cole 2008 Leaders Appreciation When you are a leader you become an offering. Leadership is a gift, it is transforming. Leaders leave a long and lasting legacy, That's why you give only your best, you see. Leaders you are as a spiritual house- Your head is the roof which covers the rest ~Your mouth is the main door from which those words enter and exit ~ Your eyes are the windows with a clear vision towards others ~Your nose is the kitchen from where you smell all the diversities of life~ Your heart is the family room where you gather and communicate ~ Your hands are the directional posts pointing from within ~Your feet are the foundation they contain the ten commandments~ Which enables you to walk out your calling ~ We see that Leadership is not about you ~ But about those that are fostered into your care ~ Leaders you are amazingly humble ~That 's what keeps you molded together ~No matter what your unable to crumble ~Being driven by an awesome man of God, Leaves no room for the devil and his clad ~ We see your willingness to strive not just for us ~But to manifest His love to those yet to be known ~It's neither here nor there ~But in your leadership that's what we all share ~ Leaders you are living proof that our God is an equal opportunity God 1Cor; 12: 4-6 There are diversities of gifts but the same spirit ~There are differences of ministries but the same Lord ~ And there are diversities of activities, But it is the same God that works all in all.

Thank you all for your Leaderships in this our house without each and everyone of you the work would be incomplete.

Featured Couple in the Spotlight

We arrived in Tampa, July of 2003. We didn’t have a church home and weren’t able to find a church that agreed with our spirits until I, (Debra) was introduced to Leola Tillman. Being the woman of God and CFM advocate that she is, we began attending CFM, May of 2004.

Our marriage was mess because of past family curses and dysfunctions. We couldn’t agree much at all about anything, as the small issues always became a big thing. We’ve had to face spiritual strongholds and powers of darkness that would come to us seasonally. Finally we decided to identify, confront and combat those demons through the power of prayer. As we sat (and continue to sit) under the unadulterated word of God (coming through God’s man servant) and then by submitting our lives to the Lord, we have been delivered and set free from the bondages that previously held us captive.

As we attended various services at CFM, Apostle Mark would be speaking on subjects that we found ourselves discussing prior to Sunday services. This continued to happen for weeks and we knew that this was no coincidence (we would actually say to one another “we were just taking about this”) but a confirmation of our calling to covenant partnership. We knew that this man of God was being used to provide answers to questions that we were seeking God for.

Greg and I learned to be submissive and accountable to God first and then to one another as husband and wife. The concept of oneness is now finally becoming a reality. “Praise God!” We would like to thank Apostle Mark and First Lady Lisa Jones for answering the call upon their lives as well Assistant Pastor Eddie Boles and his wife Gail for leading by example and being open books regarding their past lives and marital experiences. In so doing, we as a married couple have been able to answer the call of God regarding our marital relationship. By God’s grace and your anointed leadership and examples that you all have provided; we have overcome the adversities and obstacles of a broken marriage into a vibrant, whole marriage.

Minister Jeanette Bowser Greetings my fellow Sisters and Brothers in Christ.

I am Minister Jeanette Bowser. I have been given the gift and the pleasure of becoming teacher and choreographer of a group of renown young ladies better known as D-vine & Destiny young ladies ministry and dance group.

Most of the young ladies in this group are members of the Center for Manifestation Worldwide however, in order to be a part of this group it is not mandatory to be a member, but it is a necessity to be submitted to the Lord. My purpose for this group is to teach young women what the Word of God has to say to the end-time church. The young ladies are able to conversate about their daily lives and my position is to teach them how to apply the word to whatever situation that might occur. Since this is the Christmas season, we have been discussing the birth of Christ, and what his birth means to all of us. We are an ever-learning church, so we are continuing to learn more each time we feast where the table of God is spread.

D-vine & Destiny has been in existence since July 2002. We have been constantly growing every year with young ladies that range in age from 5-55 that enjoy the Art of dance. Upon entrance into the group, they are made aware that this group is not just about dancing only, but it is about learning the word of God. These young ladies are very excited about expounding on the knowledge they are aware of concerning the word. My part is to listen and to explain the intricate details of those things that they are seeking wisdom about, therefore, we mix it up with part word and part dance to make us all whole. Our relationship is like the sign of INFINITY. We are one. We are a never-ending, circle of Christ-like beings that are a part of the body of Christ.

Our passion is to dance before the Lord with our whole heart. Over 9 years ago, my desire was to praise and worship before the Lord, but I was not allowed to. I know how it feels not be welcomed to do a thing that is passionate to you and you are not allowed to do it. Now I have the liberty to be free to dance. This is why anyone who "will" let them come, they will all be welcomed to be a part of D-vine & Destiny. Age, size, and clumsiness doesn't matter, we will accept you just as you are.

We (D-vine & Destiny) are not just dancers or performers, we are worshippers. Through our worship in dance we seek to set the captive free. We endeavor to minister 'you' right into the presence of God. We desire to dance with pure motives, not to be seen of men, but to praise God with our entire body. Every movement has to be seasoned, that it will not offend, but edify who we are. As we lose ourselves in each moment, we are also minister to the Lord. Our will is to be humbly submitted even in our dance and that is why we are called D-vine & Destiny.

Our names were divinely inspired from God. Destiny's fate is to become D-vine meaning holy: belonging to or proceeding from God. Amen.

Temple Maintenance Ministry Emerson & Leola Tillman

New choices for the New Year The food we take into our system should be fundamentally one with our body. There is no reason why the food we eat should harm us.

We cannot overeat or eat the wrong things and expect to have them agree with us. There is a Spirit within us which will guide us into a proper diet and we are housed in a physical body that speaks to us daily to alert us of problems deeper than simply a “bad feeling.”

According to John 16:13, “Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will show you things to come.”

Since each is an individual, the intake of food is an individual responsibility and we should adopt an individual approach. Although there are basic health principles we should adhere to, there is no cookie cutter solution to proper health.

Your food should agree with you, and you should agree with it. This agreement should be based on what you know about the foods you choose to eat and what you know about your particular body. – For many of us this is much. With resources such as the television, internet, commercials, health magazines, etc. it’s hard to escape the knowledge of what we should and should not do concerning our health.

What has happened today is that man has meddled so much with our food that it is literally void of nutrition. Remember the primary reason we eat. It's not to fill our stomachs or enjoy the taste but rather to feed the cells of our body with the nutrition necessary to carry out all of the functions for a productive life. We were created to be healthy and vigorously energetic. Anything short of that is not normal.

Life is a precious gift we can't afford to waste. While it is true that all of us will eventually die, by living a healthy lifestyle we can lengthen our lives and greatly increase our chances of a long and healthy life.

To your Health and wholeness!

Evangelist Yvonne Hamilton Invasion Team Evangelistic–

“He Makes ALL THINGS New” Apostolic Admonitions & Proclamations Spoken on December 31, 2008

Endeavor. Endeavor to make this year meaningful. I admonish you, to not allow your time to be used frivolously. Listen. I admonish you, don’t allow anyone in your life who waste your time. Your assignment requires fervency. This next dimension that you and I are walking into, it requires diligence. Listen believers, be consistent in the things of God. Commit your heart wholly to what the Lord shows you.

Some of you, listen to me, some of you had to make some really hard decisions. Because there are certain situations in your life right now that have been draining you. And the reason they’re draining you is because you stepped beyond the grace of God in trying to deal with them. Some of you are going to have to make radical changes in your home, and what you are going to have to change is somebody else’s address.

You need your peace back. You need your space back. And so now you’re going to have to make the hard the hard decision of giving them the left foot of fellowship.

See you’ve got to know when you have gone too far. I’m telling you right now, for some of you, this is so divine for you because you’ve now become an enabler, it’s time to close that door. The Lord has purposed to do great things in your life, you see, and so now you’ve got to make sure that you tie the loose ends down, there’s another way you can say it…cut the dead weight. You can’t run with dead weight tied to you. Amen?

There are some you, listen to me; there are some of you the Lord this year I’m telling you the Lord is going to begin to reward you greatly for your sufferings. (Are you understanding what I’m saying?) Your sufferings are going to make so much sense to you as you begin to enter into the joy of this next season. (Are you understanding what I’m saying?) But now here’s the thing, learn from what you just went through.

Learn from it. Some of the stuff the devil didn’t do. YOU did. Because you didn’t recognize that there is a time when you hold ‘em, and there is a time when you fold ‘em. But learn from your mistakes believers.

Don’t allow this year to be characterized by the last one. Recognize what the Lord has purposed to do in your life and why the Lord has positioned you where He has positioned you. Make “full proof” your assignment in the things of God. Magnify whatever the Lord has set in your hands and your heart, magnify it.

Make it big. Look at it closely so you can attend unto it and do it. Some of you need to decide that this is the year that the Bible is going to govern my house. Some of you need to decide to be somebody’s daughter over somebody’s momma. And right now to be an obedient daughter is better than being a passive momma. I’m telling you the Lord has purposed this season to be a season like no other for you. But you are going to have to attend to the things that the Lord has revealed unto you. Begin to position yourself for all that the Lord has been speaking to you….

We are getting caught up in the vortex, that I believe is pulling us into the dispensation of the fullness of times. This is the age of grace, the dispensation of the age of grace is coming to a close, so that what you don’t understand is this…there’s some things that God, if you can receive it, God is putting a ‘hurry up’ on them. It’s not going to take as long as you thought. There is some stuff God is getting ready to do for you free. You can’t be picky, I know you want to work for everything, I know you want to earn it. But there’s some stuff getting ready to happen for you and it’s gonna happen free of charge with no strings attached.

This is what is going to be different from other seasons...”No strings attached.”

The person that God uses won’t hang a round for credit. Not gonna hang around to try to make you pay them back for what they said God told them to do. This has nothing to do with you, as much as it is that God doesn’t lie. Those things in your heart that you know have been divinely inspired, He’s putting a hurry up on them. The Lord says what I do, I do speedily, quickly. That which the Lord has purposed is going to manifest itself. There are some that won’t like how quickly things are going to happen. They’re going to mad because you didn’t have to go through the process that they went through to get where….they’re some folk that are not gonna understand it and they are going to sware you don’t deserve it. And all you’re going to be able to say is “Yeah, you’re right, but HE promised it and He’s not a man that He should lie.” And they won’t realize that it wasn’t really suddenly, but He has been progressing you in your spirit and He’s been preparing you for this. And He’s been breaking you for this.

You had to be quiet when you wanted to run your mouth, you had to stay by yourself when you wanted a bunch of people around you. And you had to be isolated, when you wanted a lot of friends you had to get by yourself so God could clarify your ways and order your steps. It make look “suddenly” to those around you, but it’s been a progressive work of the spirit. You see, He’s made you better, so things have to get better. Since you’re right, things have to get right. …”But it shall spring forth suddenly”…the Lord is making good on His words, and He is using you to facilitate end time agendas and purposes. Why not YOU? If He’s going to do something great, why not me? Amen? If He’s going to touch the ends of the earth, why not your hands. If He’s going to release an anointing that shall shake the nations, why not my life? Believer’s this is the year you rise up and realize that it is in fact the year of Divine Completion. And the work of the Lord, like Paul said, “the grace of the Lord it hasn’t been in vain.”

All that you have been taught through the trouble you’ve gone through, it’s not in vain. This is the year the Lord reaps the harvest out of your life that He intended by allowing you to be planted in some situations you would rather not have been in.
