EDITORIAL –
You Go Where You Look...!
 INTRODUCTION
One of the main physical things that helps me to remain sane is riding
my motorcycle. When I climb on that 'beast' and get on the road, it doesn't
matter where you're going - it's the journey that is important! I love
to ride the beautiful back roads of New Jersey, through the wheat fields
and horse farms. Riding really blows the cobwebs away; it helps me unwind
and restores my soul.
LOOKING AHEAD!
However, when I first began to ride seven years ago, I didn't dare get
on my big cruising bike until I went through two riding courses first!
It was there that I learned a very simple but important principle - you
go where you're looking!
Experienced riders would really labor to convince us to keep our eyes
as far ahead as possible along the course we were taking. Our natural
tendency is to look down immediately in front of us for any imminent
danger. However, doing so can have a high risk of you stumbling and
crashing! On a turn or curve, you have to look to the end of it, and if
you do, you will get there smoothly, with any immediate threat only
deserving a cursory notation. In other words, if you look far enough
ahead, it takes care of everything between here and there!
TWO REALM PRINCIPLE
As I am fond of saying, "first the natural and then the spiritual" (1
Corinthians 15:46). The principle of 'you go where you look' is
just as important in the spiritual realm as the natural.
 In relation to vision
for your future, wherever your eyes are, that's where you end up! God
has a vision for you to attain to and a destination to reach. How you get
there is important! If your head's hung down and you're looking at the
ground, you will lose sight of your destination. However, if you're on
the move, keep looking as far ahead as you can.
DON'T WORRY, BE HAPPY?
Don't worry so much about tomorrow - it will make
you too short-sighted and you might stumble and fall. Jesus exhorted us
this way in Matthew 6:34, "Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for
tomorrow will worry about its own things...." He didn't tell us to
forget about our future or destination, just not to be too concerned
about 'tomorrow!' Keep your eye on the prize further ahead...
after you've finished the race.
"I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the
faith" (2 Timothy 4:7).
FEEDBACK...
Hitting a
Bull's Eye
 Hello
Jeff and Melva - You recently visited my church - New Life Church
in Poland, OH. I really wanted to thank you personally for the work
you are doing and let you know how much your individual messages meant
to me.
Melva, I attended your Saturday morning conference on Israel. Wow is all
I can say! I never truly understood why it was so important to lift up
Israel and our government leaders in prayer daily. I do now, thanks to
you, and have been trying to spend some real prayer time on those things.
And Jeff.... Wow! Did you hit a bull's eye with me. I couldn't agree
more with your point of view on changing up how we bring the ministry to
people where they are. I had, in fact, been struggling over that very
thing, and your talk gave me such clarity and inspiration.
So thank you, thank you, thank you to both of you. You were such a
blessing to me, and know you will continue to be to others. God Bless,
Kim Lambert

 Hey
there Jeff, This is Melissa from Peckville Assembly of God (aka
Video Announcement Girl). I just wanted to say thank you for your
encouraging messages and the time you spent with us at Peckville. Your
message on taking a risk financially for God really hit home for me. My
fiancé and I are entering something totally uncharted... we are buying a
home and will be getting married in about a year! Your message really
helped me realize that God blesses me in so many ways each and every
day, and that by stepping out and taking that risk financially with my
tithe and offering that God will provide exactly what we need. I am sure
you pray for millions of people each and every day, would you please
keep us in your prayers as well? (It would be greatly appreciated!) So
again, I just want to say thank you and am praying for you and Melva and
your endless journey to see God's will be fulfilled. God Bless."
Melissa Cure, Peckville, PA

"Clinically Dead" Boy, Who
Miraculously Survived Drowning, Saw His Great Grandmother in Heaven
(Teresa Neumann,
www.breakingchristiannews.com)
(Lychen, Germany) — After a drowning mishap, three-year-old
Paul Eicke has made news in Europe, saying he spoke with a family
member in Heaven before miraculously coming back to life.
According to a report in The Daily Mail, the boy had fallen into a
pond for several minutes at his grandparent's house in Great Britain
before being found. (Photo: Bild.de)
 Doctors had just
given up on resuscitation efforts when — three hours and 18 minutes
after he had been brought in — his heart started beating
independently.
Professor Lothar Schweigerer, director of the Helios Clinic where
Paul was treated, said: "I have never experienced anything like
it... this is a most extraordinary case. My doctors were close to
saying 'we can do no more' after two hours of thorax compression.
This was because the chances of survival had gone and the little lad
must have been brain dead. But then suddenly his heart started to
beat again... it was a fantastic miracle."
"I've been doing this job for 30 years," he added, "and have never
seen anything like this. It goes to show the human body is a very
resilient organism and you should never give up.'"
Even more remarkable, Paul is quoted as saying that while he was
unconscious, he saw his great grandmother Emmi, "who had turned him
back from a gate and urged him to go back to his parents."
Said Paul: "There was a lot of light and I was floating. I came to a
gate and I saw Grandma Emmi on the other side. She said to me, 'What
are you doing here Paul? You must go back to Mummy and Daddy. I will
wait for you here.'"
"I knew I was in Heaven," he continued. "But Grandma said I had to
come home. She said that I should go back very quickly. Heaven
looked nice. But I am glad I am back with Mummy and Daddy now."
Back home in Germany, Paul reportedly has no sign of brain damage
from his ordeal. Source:

FOUR ESSENTIAL
MESSAGES AVAILABLE THROUGH FMI...
All Now Available to Download on
MP3
NEW! Turning
the Hand of God
Can we turn curses into blessings? Nineveh’s
repentance turned God’s hand - He’ll turn curses into blessing;
He’ll turn your life around; He’ll turn your city around. Learn how
to change the worst circumstances that life could throw at you into
great opportunities for victory!
Learn how God is working for victory right now!
NEW!
The Chosen
Most are invited, but only some are picked
out of the crowd. Is it our free will or God's election? God calls
everyone and gives them the power to respond - but to be chosen, we
must respond to the call, using the power God gave us to take on the
character of Christ.
Learn how to know what you were chosen
for!
 Multiplication
In Our Generation
Part Two
Once we are mature as Christians and able to reproduce spiritually,
the Father is looking for the fruit that He expects us to present to
Him. Pursuit of our own spiritual growth at the expense of
evangelism brings glory only to us, when much fruit of souls brings
glory to the Father, and all our prayers are answered!
Passing the Baton
Half
of the world's 6.5 billion inhabitants are under 20 years old.... A
global youth culture is forming, and Christians must learn to adjust
to it. Some are already claiming that the church must be completely
re-invented. The newly-forming youth culture depends less on
scientific and rational thought and tends more toward seeking to
experience spiritual things personally. Those seeking spiritual
experiences will be disappointed by a church offering only
information about God.
