Shabbat (Sabbath) means to stop work and to be refreshed. Sabbath creates a space to be given new life and energy. Shalom is God’s perfect peace. Shalom is the absence of agitation and discord.
“I go before you always…come follow Me and I will give you rest.”
Live in My Shalom.
Breathe in My Shalom.
Walk it all out in My Shalom.
My Shalom is all encompassing…it is all enveloping.
Father God we come to You today with repentant hearts as we begin the new week. Touch our lives with Your grace and heal every broken place.
Seal us with Your Holy Spirit and anoint us to hear and follow His lead each day. Be the Balm of Gilead to touch and heal each heart shattered by life trauma. Make every crooked way straight in each mind tormented by fear and anxiety.
Cleanse us with the blood of Jesus to arise fully restored
Father God, we come before You today and stand in agreement for the coming week. May Your grace guide us ever in Your will. May Your peace resonate ever from us in the presence of others.
May we live this week and every week in complete thanksgiving for Who You are in each of our lives.
We thank You for travel mercies for all journeying to be with family and friends this Thanksgiving Day. Keep us safe under the shadow of Your wings

For those of you who are not on certain Social Media sites, I publish “Short Takes” every day. Below are the takes for last week. Also are included links to short posts “From the Archives of Esther’s Warriors Ministry.” I pray they bless you and keep you striving toward a full Kingdom walk ‘for such a time as this!’
God Bless,
Michele

~Dream big! It is your life. Cherish your vision. With God all things are possible. God bless your day!
Father God, We thank You for all who have served our country and all who continue to serve today. We pray hedges of protection around them and their families. We pray that You will be at the forefront of every battle leading the way and being their rearguard.
In accordance with 2 Chronicles 7:14, let us each come humbly before You with repentant hearts and seek Your face that You will hear from heaven and heal our land.
On November 11 each year, we celebrate Veterans Day in the United States of America. This day is set aside to honor those who have served in our Armed Forces to keep our country free. This holiday has undergone several changes. In the eleventh hour, on the eleventh day in the eleventh month of 1918 a truce or armistice took place between the Allied nations and Germany. Armistice Day was originally established to honor World War I veterans. In May 1938 November 11 became a legal holiday.
In reading the commentary about the Atlanta Falcons/Washington Redskins game from this past weekend, there was a question asked of Redskins safety Clinton-Dix. Sunday was his first game with Washington and even though the Redskins lost this one he said he appreciated his new teammates. He said he liked that the Redskins had “a culture of accountability.”
I could not help but think about Christians today. It is more than clear that we have diluted if not lost our “culture of accountability.” Used to be we would be held accountable to stay focused in our walk.
In accordance with 2 Chronicles 7:14, let us come humbly before You with repentant hearts and seek Your face that You will hear from heaven and heal our land.
Let us stand strong in Your grace.
Let us lay down our weapons of division.
Let us unite to arise as Your Army to take back the territory.
Let us press forward in the name of the Lord.
We pray this in agreement in Jesus’ precious name.
