FGBMFI – God's Agenda
Richard Shakarian

God's Plan for You

Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. 

Be encouraged – God's plan for you is safety, abundance, provision, blessings, health, and for you to be a winner of souls – and shine as the stars forever and ever. 

Recently we received a substantial gift from one of our brothers.  He gave this gift even though he was in need.  He was trusting God that his miracle would be in his seed.  Here's the story:

Dear Brother Richard,

Within 24 hours of sending the love gift, we received news from two US companies that they want to use the service of Heritage Medical Ltd, to market their products in Europe, Scandinavia and the Middle East.  It's an encouraging turn around.  The blockage on Rachel's visa was lifted and she arrived in LAX on Saturday, the 8th.

Thank you for your prayers and I want you to know that Yvonne and I are praying for you and Vangie.  You probably have one of the most difficult yet rewarding ministries in the world.

Don Mounts gave me a copy of your book, which I found to be very inspiring.  You have a great perception of the grass roots problems and I found that the book was great motivational material to getting in line with God's will.

Thank you for your prayers and your friendship.
Love, Lynn

God loves you and He has a miracle for you.  Begin to trust Him in your giving, in your witnessing, and in all of the important things of your life.

There has been a coldness and therefore there will be a sifting, but it is God's plan to release the anointing to warm our hearts once again. 

The Miracle is in your seed.

FGBMFI -Tsunamis, Hurricanes, and Earthquakes
Richard Shakarian

Around the world people are asking if these are the last days-or God's judgment-or just global warming. 

This latest hurricane, Wilma, is the most powerful Atlantic storm ever recorded with gusts of 175 miles per hour and sustained winds of 145 miles per hour.

The two previous storms that hit America did so much damage that 478,000 people lost their jobs.  The other day the earthquake in Pakistan killed more than 50,000 people, and dislocated hundreds of thousands.  By the way, a Christian Pakistani man and his company supplied the fresh water that was needed by all of these people. 

Don't forget the Tsunami that hit Indonesia and other Asian nations with devastating force.  Statistics published in March 2005 put the number of dead and missing at more than 300,000.

If that is not enough, now the world is now expecting the deadly Bird Flu.

Rabbi Yitzhak Kaduri, a leading Kabbalist, says – More Disasters Coming

He also said, “Jews must come to the land of Israel to receive our righteous Mashiach (Messiah), who has begun his influence and will reveal himself in the future.”

THIS IS A TIME OF SIFTING.  It is up to each of us to search our own hearts and put our life in line with our Lord.

Recently there have been prophecies by men who in the past have been extremely accurate.  These prophecies predict more calamities for the world and for America. 

I received an urgent email telling us to pray for California. 

Rabbi Kaduri has spoken repeatedly about the final redemption and believes we have entered the period of history where the Messiah will be revealed.

FGBMFI, this is the time to comfort and pray for all who have been affected.  Yes, we can see that the World is getting ready for the Harvest of 20 Centuries.

Let us bring the World to Christ.

FGBMFI-Divine Design
Richard Shakarian

God has a beautiful master plan.  Yes, a divine design for every individual, every family, and every nation. 

The Supreme Court-
Several years ago, in Washington, D.C., I walked up the steps of the Supreme Court building.  I passed those incredible columns and placed my hand on the big, ornate front doors to pray.

Immediately, the Holy Spirit gave me a message…This court will discipline the Nation. 

It was 50 years ago, in the 1950s, when the Supreme Court turned away from the original Constitution and began social engineering along the secular humanist lines.  For 50 years we have increasingly suffered as child pornography is held up as a free speech right while children in school are denied the possibility of praying to almighty God.   Children not taught the difference between right and wrong and teaching the 10 Commandments is out.

I have patiently waited, because it was over 15 years ago when the Holy Spirit gave me His promise that the court would discipline the Nation. 

We are now in a new era when this prophetic word can finally come to pass.

Pray for America, and pray for the Supreme Court.  Pray that all the changes necessary will be made and that those who focus on the original Constitution will be appointed and bring an end to all of the loopholes that have fostered so many vices.

Thank you for your prayers.
Richard Shakarian

FGBMFI – Mission to Mexicali
Richard Shakarian

Vangie and I just returned from an incredible trip to Mexicali, Mexico.  It is the business center for NW Mexico with 100 major international corporations. We were received by Juan Melendrez, one of the most important men in the state of Baja, California.  He is the top political elected official for the party in power. In this position, he says who can run for political office and who cannot. 

Juan was saved just two years ago when Jimmy Hughes and a Fire Team from Fresno led by Mike Quintana and Rey Mejia brought this anointed team to Mexicali.  During this Fire Team, and the one a year later in which I participated, many businessmen and government leaders have come to Christ. 

They were so blessed that they came to the World Convention where God greatly expanded their vision. 

Our trip was blessed from beginning to end as the Madera family took Vangie and I under their wing.  We found ourselves witnessing to governors, mayors, union leaders, businessmen, ranchers, leaders of religious denominations, and also ministering to the poorest people, some in wheelchairs, in their little homes with holes in the roof. 

On the way home Vangie and I played the incredible prophetic CD's of Kim Clemnet as he spoke and prophesied at the World Convention.  It took three one hour CD's to hear the full extent of these powerful prophesies.  There were prophesies for four generations.  Prophesies for FGBMFI, for myself, for our grandson, and for many many of our leaders and people in the audience. 

We felt we were under this incredible anointing for the entire 3 ½ hours it took drive home. 

The International is going to be doing some very great things in Mexicali.  Later we will announce the incredible opportunities that have opened to us.  You will be astounded.

If you would like to bless these wonderful children, buy a backpack or several and fill them with pencils, notebooks and school supplies.  Send them to our International Headquarters along with $5 for transportation and we will get them to the children.

PRAISE REPORTS

NIGERIA -  Dear Brother Richard,
God Bless you for the email I just received from u.  I thank God for the wonderful testimonies coming from the World Convention.      Sis Adaugo Okorocha

GERMANY – When a doctor prays.  Dr. Harald Fauser is an internist in Landshut, Bavaria.  He says, I increasingly offer to pray for my patients in my practice, with encouraging results-healings, as well as miracles in other crises such as financial and relationship problems, joblessness and so on.  One woman came into my practice suffering from heavy pain in her right arm.  The diagnosis revealed no form of physical illness, but when I asked about the situation in her life she told me about her complicated marriage.  I sensed God prompting me to tell her that the symptoms would vanish if she would vanish if she would forgive her husband.  In prayer she put her husband in God's hands and experienced a strong touch from God. 

CENTRAL ASIA – There were many healings and baptisms in the Holy Spirit.  A lady came in a meeting with a swollen stomach full of water and cancer.  The next day she was completely healed and the stomach was totally normal.  Some saw Jesus walking around the meetings and touching people.  Thirty six people gave his heart to Jesus.

EXCELLENT FIRE TEAM IN INDONESIA
Good evening Richard.  The “Fire Team Outreach” in Medan, Indonesia was very successful.  Our brothers in FGBMFI at Medan were helpful, organized and operated with the sweet spirit.  The Lord had given us the same vision as Nicaragua.  The churches and FGBMFI work very well together in Medan.  All the pastors wanted to hear about the vision and we received favor to bring the message to the flock.

Meeting were scheduled at businesses, universities and university Christian leaders, a college, hospital, drug rehab center, churches, hotel, restaurants, FGBMFI meetings for all the churches, FGBMFI Banquet Rally, etc.  Many received salvation, the Baptism of the Holy Spirit, good teaching, healing and deliverance.  God touched thousands of people.  Gedeon Esurua joined us for two days.  He greatly added to the ministry of the “Fire Team”.     Douglas Raine

MOZAMBIQUE
The new Government in Mozambique is communist and anti-Christ.  Registration of religious organizations is deliberately complicated and any meeting without police permit is seen as anti-Government.  Despite this, the men are resolved, indeed, five people set out for this meeting, two were turned back at the border.  The three men having been richly blessed have resolved to attend the launching of the Executive Chapter in Swaziland.  Indeed, both Swaziland and Mozambique are requesting for an expanded ALTS on our next visit.               Mike Adegun, National Director Nigeria

Hi Richard,
Thanks for the e-mails.  I am always happy to hear from you.  The memories of your father are great.  Our sons, too are remembering their father.  They sent 6 pallets of water to New Orleans yesterday in memory of Leonard.   When they do something they say they are trying to do what Dad would have done.  Just as I am so blessed to see this, it is so great for us to see the heritage your father has left for you. 
Love in Jesus, Carol Riebold

FGBMFI – MEDIA BIAS AGAINST CHRISTIANS
RICHARD SHAKARIAN

THIS IS AN ALERT FOR CHRISTIANS,

THIS IS NOT A POLITICAL COMENTARY BUT A STATEMENT ON THE MORAL, AND POLITICAL VIEWS PRIMARILY OF THE USA MEDIA, ALONG WITH MANY ACTIVIST RADICAL JUDGES AND SOME LEADING POLITICIANS IN LEAGE WITH THE HOLLYWOOD MOVIE ELITE.

Wisdom; there is a fierce cultural battle raging against Christians and against God. 

Yes, every nation has its good points and its bad points,
But did you ever wonder where all this hate came from.

The Hate President Bush Campain….

Did you ever ask yourself why – The HATE Bush campaign started long before the terrorist action in New York, and before the war began. Yes even before he was elected.

If you live in America you know that the moment he announced that he is a believing Christian - the media began to use the word hate. They characterized him as stupid, a throwback, and a Neanderthal among many other unflattering descriptions.

Many believe this unending hate is because he is a Christian, he prays, and he believes in morality.  This makes many with a different agenda very unhappy.
Oh yes, I am sure he would tell you he has made some mistakes – but the constant hate pounding of the media reveals their motives.

FALSE STORIES
Recently in Asia, while watching CNN I saw the heart wrenching story of a man in New Orleans who was strongly with tears condemning the president and the federal government for letting his mother die even though rescue was promised every day for a week.  Yes, it was a heart wrenching story - - BUT THE STORY WAS NOT TRUE.

CBS, The New York Times and other formerly honest sources of news have been caught
In lie after lie by running anti Bush and many anti American stories that either were not true or they only told a narrow one-sided version of the story.  They have lost the confidence of many Americans.

TONY BLAIR  - referred to in THE FINANCIAL TIMES OF LONDON
September 17, 2005

Blair ‘shocked' over BBC Katrina coverage
   By Joshua Chaffin and Aline van Duyn in New York
   Published:  September 17, 2005

Tony Blair was shocked by the BBC's coverage of Hurricane Katrina's devastation of New Orleans, describing it as “full of hatred of America”, Rupert Murdoch, chairman and chief executive of News Corporation, revealed on Friday night.

Mr. Murdoch, a long-time critic of the BBC who controls rival Sky News, said the prime minister had recounted his feelings in a private conversation earlier this week in New York. 

THE TRIUMPH OF SECULAR HUMANISM OVER GOD IS THEIR ADGENDA

In survey after survey the elite media believe exactly the opposites to the average American.

If  95 percent of Americans believe in God – than only 5 percent of the media do.
In category after category the percentage is the same.
In order to change the society – they know they cannot do it by the vote of the people –
So these unelected media and activist judges work hard to discredit the God fearing – and the traditional way of American life.

What they want….
No moral judgment of right and wrong
No 10 commandments
No nation under God
God out of all government, and his name erased from public view.
No public prayer
Those who read scriptures against certain types of sin even in church – should go to jail
No patriotism
A world government
They are against a strong America
Against Israel
Against Christianity
Against Christians in public office
Against morality

They want a secular humanist government – along the most leftist and socialist pattern
They want you and your children to remember God no more.

WISDOM
So when you see the news and all that hate - let God give you the wisdom to discern the truth.  Remember if these forces get their way – YOU MAY BE NEXT.

FGBMFI-Crossing the Equator and the Dateline
Richard Shakarian

God is greatly at work in Asia! 

Ron and I just returned from the FGBMFI Asian - African Convention in Bandung, Indonesia.  Our travels also took us to Singapore, and through Japan. 

God used Gideon Esurua, of Nigeria, tremendously by giving him a vision to bring the African brothers to Indonesia.  The result was a great delegation of Africans who had an incredible impact on the brothers of Asia by breaking the long-standing cultural barrier.

What a joy to see Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, and others of the 53 African Nations impacting
Asia and its 22 Nations.

We thank God for our tremendous brothers in both these quadrants of the world.
And we especially appreciate the work of H.B.L. Mantiri, President of Indonesia
and Bunmi Adediji, President of Nigeria

Many of the top businessmen of Indonesia are part of the FGBMFI. They have a real vision to reach the top people.

Many leaders gathered for our meeting from around Asia, including Bert Lotilla with the delegation from Philippines, Komo Antakon with 30 people from Thailand, Gerry Kibarabara from Kenya, Roland Benz with a delegation from Germany, and many representatives from Malaysia, Singapore, Hong Kong and a Fire Team from America. 

In our travels throughout Asia we enjoyed the famous Asian hospitality.  Together we had great times of Fellowship and prayer.  All of us coming together as Christian brothers set a wonderful high standard of blessing. I am sure each one of us was greatly enriched and encouraged. 

The Governor of Papua paid the airfare, which cost $500 each, for 129 Papuans to fly 8 hours from the furthest reaches of Indonesia to Jakarta.  I have never met such humble, wonderful people as these. 

I know that God loves them very much. They said they are from the end of the world, but God even loves those who are at the end of the world.

The Governor of Papua gave an invitation for me to come along with our men to his Province.  The details will be worked out and we are looking forward to a great time of blessing for that Province and those wonderful people.  This will include meetings in a 50,000-seat stadium, meetings with the government, meetings with top leaders, and a love link fire team to those in outlying villages.

I really enjoyed ministering to the convention and also to the churches, both in Jakarta and in Singapore.  We saw vision greatly enlarged, barriers broken, forgiveness given,
And healing poured out. There were many new commitments of people in the marketplace to let their light shine even from their offices. 

SPECIAL EVENT

There will be an Asian Leadership Summit with the International President to be held in Manila, April 19-20, 2006, just ahead of the Philippine National Convention which will begin the next day. 

The summit is for the top 20 leaders of each Asian Nation as well as all others who wish to attend.  We are specifically looking for ALL National Officers, ALL National Directors, ALL Teachers and ALL who direct areas or ministries in FGBMFI to attend.

With the incredible new things that God is doing it is vital that at least 20 or 30 leaders of each nation attend.  It is up to all of us as leaders and those who hold any position of responsibility in Asia to come and receive first hand..

This Summit event will be the most important event in Asia during the year. 
We are asking all who are in any capacity of leadership, teaching or ministry in FGBMFI begin praying that God will prepare their heart, and give greater vision.

Our thanks to all the men, and especially our host, Ardian Kristanto.

FGBMFI - HOLY LAND DISCOVERY
Richard Shakarian

The chief archeologist of the city of  David, Jerusalem  showed us his brand new discovery.  All of us on the FGBMFI Holy Land tour were thrilled to see the actual pool of Siloam and to be in the very place where our Lord Jesus healed the sick. 

I know you wont want to miss our upcoming Holy Land – Rome tour March 15-26

Recently the DRUDGE REPORT carried the following article about the pool of Siloam.

Biblical Pool of Siloam is Uncovered in Jerusalem
Tues. Aug 9, 2005  00: 09:33 ET

Workers repairing a sewage pipe in the old city of Jerusalem have discovered the biblical Pool of Siloam, a freshwater reservoir that was a major gathering place for ancient Jews making religious pilgrimages to the city and the reputed site where Jesus cured a man blind from birth, the LOS ANGELES TIMES reports.

The pool was fed by the now famous Hezekiah's Tunnel and is “a much grander affair” than archeologists previously believed, with three tiers of stone stairs allowing easy access to the water, according to Hershel Shanks, editor of Biblical Archeology Review, which reported the find Monday. 

“Scholars have said that there wasn't a Pool of Siloam and that John was using a religious conceit” to illustrate a point, said New Testament scholar James H. Charlesworth of the Princeton Theological Seminary.  “now we have found the Pool of Siloam . . . exactly where John said it was.”

A gospel that was thought to be “pure theology is now shown to be grounded in history,” he said.

The discovery puts a new spotlight on what is called the pilgrimage to Jerusalem, a trip that religious law required ancient Jews to make at least once a year, said archeologist Ronny Reich of the University of Haifa, who excavated the pool. 

“Jesus was just another pilgrim coming to Jerusalem,” he said.  “ It would be natural to find him there.”

The newly discovered pool is less than 200 yards from another Pool of Siloam, this one a reconstruction built between A.D. 400 and 460 by the empress Eudocia of Byzantium, who oversaw the rebuilding of several Biblical sites.

FGBMFI – FLASH - 500,000 People Homeless-New Orleans
Richard Shakarian

Around the World lets pray for the people of the Southern states hit by hurricane Katrina.  In Mississippi alone at least 110 lost their lives. 

New Orleans, known as an open city along with oil production and shipping handling 5,000 vessels a year, is being fully evacuated. 

Its early history goes back to the Spanish then the French and finally America under the Louisiana Purchase. 

Across the South an untold number of people are suffering.  We feel fortunate that we have not heard of any of our FGBMFI members being lost. 

We a preparing a Fire Team.

We will come from all over America, Latin America and other Nations to reach out to those who have suffered so much.  The Fire Team announcement will come later after the floods subsided and the people have returned to their homes and businesses. 

In the mean time let us pray that the people will find comfort and their hearts will opened to the Lord. 

FGBMFI – HEALING FOR EVERY PART OF YOUR LIFE
Richard Shakarian

I thought you would enjoy some of my favorite - Healing Scriptures

  “When he had called unto him his twelve disciples, he gave them power against unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all manner of sickness and all manner of disease.”
Matthew 10:1

“And a great many people came to him who had with them the lame, blind, dumb, maimed, and many others; and they laid them down at the feet of Jesus, and he healed them. So that the people wondered to see the dumb speaking and the maimed healed and the lame walking and the blind seeing; and they praised the God of Israel.”
Matthew 15:30-31

“He healed them all.” Matthew 8:16-17
“He healed them all.” Matthew 12:15
  “He healed them all.” Matthew 14:36

FGBMFI -EARLY DAYS WITH DEMOS
RICHARD SHAKARIAN

VANGIE AND I HAVE JUST RETURNED FROM AN EXTENSIVE TRIP IN COSTA RICA. THE BEAUTIFUL FOLIAGE AND CATTLE AS WELL AS THE BLUE PACIFIC REMINDED ME OF EARLY CALIFORNIA.

I THOUGHT YOU MIGHT ENJOY A DESCRIPTION OF THE EARLY DAYS WITH MY DAD DEMOS AND GRANDFATHER ISAAC.

I REMEMBER THE WONDERFUL TIMES TOGETHER ON THE DAIRY SURROUNDED BY THE COWS, THE HAY, AND ALL THOSE PEOPLE WHO CAME BY  BECAUSE THEY HEARD THAT GOD WAS ABOUT TO USE MEN FOR HIS GLORY.

MY DAD WAS MY CLOSEST FRIEND. WE SHARED MANY WONDERFUL DREAMS AND VISIONS TOGETHER. HE WAS THE MOST HUMBLE, MOST KIND, AND MOST GENTLE PERSON I HAVE EVER KNOWN.

MY FATHER INTENSELY TOUCHED MY LIFE. WE TALKED OF THE GENTLE LOVE THAT CONQUERS SIN, STRIFE AND ALL THE WORKS OF SATAN.

WE TALKED AT LENGTH ABOUT THE WORK YET TO BE DONE. THE MILLIONS OF MEN TO BE UNLOCKED TO GOD'S FORGIVENESS, AND OF THE MILLIONS OF BUSINESSMEN SITTING ON THE SIDELINES NOT KNOWING HOW TO RELEASE THE GIFTS AND TALENTS THAT GOD HAS ENTRUSTED TO EVERY MAN.

DAD AND I TALKED TOGETHER OF THINGS YET TO COME. TOGETHER WE SAW A DAY WHEN MILLIONS OF BUSINESSMEN AROUND THE WORLD WILL RISE, NOT BY BRILLIANCE OF MIND, BUT THEY SHALL RISE TO DO THE WORK OF THE GREAT HARVEST WITH THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT IN A NEW DIMENSION.

THIS GLORY WILL NOT FALL UPON THE PROUD OR THOSE WHO STRIVE.
IT WILL CONFOUND THE WORLD BECAUSE IT WILL FALL UPON THE HUMBLE OF HEART, AND MEEK OF SPIRIT. GOD USES HUMBLE MEN.

THAT WHICH CANNOT BE ACCOMPLISHED BY THE MIND OF MEN WILL BE FULFILLED BY THE SPIRIT OF GOD THROUGH THE HUMBLE.

FGBMFI - CAST YOUR BURDEN UPON THE LORD
RICHARD SHAKARIAN

PSALM 55:22
CAST THY BURDEN UPON THE LORD, AND HE SHALL SUSTAIN THEE: HE SHALL NEVER SUFFER THE RIGHTEOUS TO BE MOVED.

PSALM 61:1-5
HEAR MY CRY, O GOD; ATTEND UNTO MY PRAYER.
FROM THE END OF THE EARTH WILL I CRY UNTO THEE, WHEN MY HEART IS OVERWHELMED: LEAD ME TO THE ROCK THAT IS HIGHER THAN I.
FOR THOU HAST BEEN A SHELTER FOR ME, AND A STRONG  TOWER FROM THE ENEMY.
I WILL ABIDE IN THY TABERNACLE FOR EVER: I WILL TRUST IN THE COVERT OF THY WINGS.SELAH.
FOR THOU, O GOD, HAST HEARD MY VOWS: THOU HAST GIVEN ME THE HERITAGE OF THOSE THAT FEAR THY NAME.

PSALM 62:1-2
TRULY, MY SOUL WAITETH UPON GOD: FROM HIM COMETH MY SALVATION.
HE ONLY IS MY ROCK AND MY SALVATION: HE IS MY DEFENCE; I SHALL NOT BE GREATLY MOVED.

PSALM 63:1-4
O GOD, THOU ART MY GOD; EARLY WILL I SEEK THEE: MY SOUL THIRSTETH FOR THEE, MY FLEASH LONGETH FOR THEE IN A DRY AND THIRSTY LAND, WHERE NO WATER IS; 
TO SEE THY POWER AND THY GLORY, SO AS I HAVE SEEN THEE IN THE SANCTUARY
BECAUSE THY LOVINGKINDNESS IS BETTER THAN LIFE, MY LIPS SHALL PRAISE THEE.
THUS WILL I BLESS THEE WHILE I LIVE: I WILL LIFT UP MY HANDS IN THY NAME.
V. 6-8
WHEN I REMENBER THEE UPON MY BED, AND MEDITATE ON THEE IN THE NIGHT WATCHES.
BECOUSE THOU HAST BEEN MY HELP, THEREFORE IN THE SHADOW OF THY WINGS WILL I REJOICE
MY SOUL FOLLOWETH HARD AFTER THEE: THY RIGHT HAND UPHOLDETH ME.

REVELATION 3:21
TO HIM THAT OVERCOMETH WILL I GRANT TO SIT WITH ME IN MY THRONE, EVEN AS I ALSO OVERCAME, AND AM SET DOWN WITH MY FATHER IN HIS THRONE.

FGBMFI-UNUSUAL PROSPERITY
RICHARD SHAKARIAN

Unusual prosperity and great personal blessings are being reported by many following their attending the World Convention.

One of our members report:
During the Convention, he committed his business to the Lord.

When he went home, his voice mail was full of calls from his customers.

In the next two days, he did as much business as he had previously done in 2 ½ months,
And he has not yet even had time to call back all the customers that called for orders

PRAISE GOD – GOD IS FAITHFUL

ANOTHER REPORT

One of the Ladies of the Fellowship is in the real estate business. She is always coming to the International events and she is always giving bountifully.

In the few days following the World Convention,
LOOK WHAT GOD DID

She sold 2 houses with the combined value of well over a million dollars. This is an incredible price in her area.

She also listed a third house for sale with a value of more than $400,000.

GO FORTH AND PROSPER

GOD WANTS TO BLESS YOU

Use Gods formula - ASK - SEEK - KNOCK

THE ANOINTING AND PROPHETIC WORD WAS SO POWERFUL AT THE WORLD CONVENTION, THAT MANY PEOPLE SAY THAT THEY HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED THIS BEFORE AND THEY HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE IT.

FGBMFI MEN AND WOMEN – BRING YOURSELF CLOSE TO THE ANOINTING OF GOD. KNOW FOR A CERTAINTY THAT GOD WANTS TO BLESS YOU. KNOW THAT GOD WANTS TO USE THE WEALTH OF THIS WORLD TO ESTABLISH HIS KINGDOM IN THE HEARTS OF BILLIONS OF PEOPLE.

FGBMFI - PROPHETIC DIRECTION AT THE WORLD CONVENTION
RICHARD SHAKARIAN

ONE WORD FROM GOD IS ALL WE NEED.
BUT HIS PROPHETIC WORD
WAS POURED OUT ON THE PEOPLE LIKE A GREAT RAIN

WITH NEW POWER - AND DIRECTION - TO ALL THE WORLD

The spirit of the Lord God is upon me, because the Lord has anointed me to bring good news to the suffering and afflicted. He has sent me to comfort the broken-hearted, to announce liberty to captives and to open the eyes of the blind. Isaiah 61:1

Everyday God used his prophets to give the fellowship and individuals a special word. Hundreds of people receive healing, business direction, personal direction, and a special word from the Lord just for them individually. 

SOME HAVE EVEN RECEIVED NEW BUSINESSES SINCE GOING HOME

The great hall of the Convention was filled to capacity and by Saturday night there was an over flow crowd.

GEORGE FOREMAN
The former world heavy weight champion gave an incredible testimony. Even though his mother knew God, George ran the other way. He is physically huge and tough and always had money in his pocket. He thought he didn't need God. Following a fight, he was laid out on the table and had a near death experience. It was actually a double hit from God. A near death experience coupled with stigmatic signs of blood flowing from his body in the same places that the wounds were made in Christ's body.

He got up from that table BORN AGAIN, and is now working for the Lord.

OUR NEXT GREAT INTERNATIONAL FGBMFI EVENT:

Let us open our hearts to enable our children and grandchildren to become the great men and women of God that He wants them to be. They are in the vision.

FGBMFI - TAKING THE TERRITORY
RICHARD SHAKARIAN

When Joshua crossed over to take the Promised Land, he marked the territory. He built a monument of 12 stones to mark the crossing.

Joshua said; all the people of the earth might know the hand of the Lord, it is mighty.

Today, we are marking the world with the powerful testimonies of changed lives. In addition to all of our chapters, events, fire teams, and conventions. We are also moving in other mighty ways to affect the whole world.

Just a word some of our special outreaches, that you will be hearing more about later.

On each one of my last several International trips, I have ministered in:
YOUTH RALLIES, AND HEALING RALLIES

Each of these meetings have been well attended with a few hundred up to 3,000 people.

The result has been a landslide of salvation.
And, incredible physical healings

FGBMFI - LADIES
VANGIE SHAKARIAN

Welcome Ladies of the Fellowship!

We welcome our ladies from around the world to our great 2005 Convention. We believe this Convention will be a very special and powerful time in the Lord. We are expecting breakthroughs for the Fellowship and also in your individual lives. I believe this will be the beginning of the incredible things the Lord has told us. We are living in this amazing time just before the return of our Lord. What an honor to be working for Him. This Convention will be a great time of blessing and fellowship with our friends. We have great things planned for the ladies.

Ladies Tea - Wednesday 1:30 pm in the Window Box
Come join us for a wonderful time of informal sharing. This is a great time to get to know one another. The price is $20. There will be finger sandwiches, scones and sweets for you to enjoy.

Hospitality Room - 10 am-5 pm; Thursday-Saturday; Window Box - 2nd Level, Coordinator - Barbara Bignold. Every one is welcome to come and have a blessed time of fellowship over a cup of coffee or tea.

Ladies Luncheon - 12:30 on Thursday - Imperial Ballroom.
This is always a glorious time. Dr Beryl Dixon is our speaker. This woman of God forsook the political arena where God had placed her for the past 8 years to pursue the call of God on her life. While being elevated to great heights as a member of the House of Representatives, and special government executive positions, Dr. Beryl became a powerful demonstration of the ability to be “In the world, but not of the world”. She also ministers in the prophetic. I know you will be so very blessed. Don't miss this great luncheon.

Intercessory Prayer Room - All day in the library - 2nd Floor. Dr. Benjamin Idayi is a great intercessor and will be in charge of the prayer room. Prayer is vital to any meetings. Praise God we expect breakthroughs.

So you see there are great things in store for you. This is going to be a glorious week of blessings. We desire to see each of you blessed in every area of your life and family.

With much love,
Vangie
