August 10, 2016. God said to me, "I am about to bring a total roll over in your life. It is essential that it takes place in order for you to remain spiritually strong and powerful against the devil." We see this in the rollover of the waters in deep lakes during the year. Water at the bottom of the lake is cold, heavy, dense and needs oxygen. God has designed roll over to bring oxygen to life forms.
John 10:10 (ESV) "The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly." Ras Robinson

August 10, 2016. At one time forgiveness seemed elusive, but you didn't give up. You kept forgiving time and time again every time the hurt popped into your mind. You are on your way to forgiving 490 times as Jesus instructed Peter not to forgive just 7 times, but 70 times 7. Peter had questioned Jesus on how many times one must forgive. By the 490th time, if you need that long, you will have forgiven from your heart and that is your goal.
Matthew 18:21-22 (ESV) "Then Peter came up and said to him, "Lord, how often will my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? As many as seven times?" Jesus said to him, "I do not say to you seven times, but seventy-seven times." Bev Robinson

August 10, 2016. Timing is very important in the scope of how things are delivered. At the perfect time God the Father sent His Only Son Jesus to the world for redemption of lost souls. So too, you've been sent by God the Father to redeem the time and space for people all around you. Wait patiently for God's timing for you to be obedient with your words and deeds by prophesying what He is saying now.
Psalm 27:14 (NLT) "Wait patiently for the Lord. Be brave and courageous. Yes, wait patiently for the Lord." Kevin Robinson

Ministry to Children in the Philippines
We are very proud of these 5 college students. Ronavil, Sharmine, Marbe, Lyndie and Wendy are sponsored by FCM. They come from very poor families and difficult situations at home. All of them have known what it feels like not to have enough food to eat and experienced a lack of even basic needs. When they were sponsored, it gave them hope that the future could be better than the past. There were still hardships of poverty to overcome, but now they knew they had a chance to escape the poverty and to help family members. They have worked hard to get an education.
Ronavil is studying Business Administration. She says, "Hardship is not a hindrance in going to school as long as you will persevere and trust the Lord. As you can see me now, it made a big difference." She is very thankful to her sponsor.
Sharmine is also studying Business Administration. She is also active in her church, serving as a praise and worship leader and a youth leader.
Marbe is studying Business Administration and also ministers as a praise and worship leader in her church. When she was younger, there were times there was not enough food for everyone in the home to eat. It was not unusual to find that she had given her portion to younger siblings, going without food for herself. She often does laundry for neighbors to earn money for her expenses.
Lyndie too is studying Business Administration and has started a small business of her own. She sells cosmetics to help pay some of her expenses. She is very thankful for her sponsor. She could not get an education without you.
Wendy is studying Information Technology and is a big help to her church with technology needs. She is also part of the worship team. She is thankful, first to God and to her parents, her sponsors and to her pastors. She is diligent and resourceful.
Some of these girls have been sponsored since elementary school. Without that support, they could never have come this far. Along with them we are thankful to all the sponsors who make impossible things possible.
If you would like to contribute to helping disadvantaged children like these get an education and escape the cycle of poverty into which they were born, there are links below to assist you.
