You May Believe in Me, But Do You Believe Me?

ESTHER’S WARRIORS MINISTRY

How well do you know Jesus?  Is your knowledge of Him simply that… knowledge…intellectual awareness of Who He is historically and according to church doctrine?  Take some time to ponder this one.  Sometimes when we have been taught something or have grown up with something we do not question that information.  We take it in and let it stay just where it is.  We do not go deeper with it.  The information is just that…no more…no less.

Is your awareness of Jesus simply a familiarity with all you have been told or read about Him?  Or, do … Read the rest

I Am With You Always, Where Are You?

ESTHER’S WARRIORS MINISTRY 

I pray this finds you well and prospering in what the Lord has for you.  As spring offers new growth and a fresh perspective may you walk in that fullness with a renewed hope for the plan of the Lord for your life.  May you hold His promises in your heart (it is always a heart issue), knowing that He is ever faithful to perform His Word to you in His appointed time.

When Jesus gave his disciples [which include us if we are His followers in this time] the great commission He said:  “All authority has

The Many Facets of Being a Good Steward

 ESTHER’S WARRIORS MINISTRY

May you enjoy a blessed Earth Day today!   Earth Day started in 1970 to bring an awareness of the need to be good stewards of the planet.  The Lord has entrusted each of us with a portion of this earth to steward.   Take a little time today to think about how you could better oversee what He has given you.

When Christians speak of stewardship the conversation most often centers on money.  Certainly the Lord entrusts us with a financial portion of His determination and we are called to make sure that we handle our share with

Let Unity Reign In Your Heart

ESTHER’S WARRIORS MINISTRY

Blessings as we begin Holy Week!  This is considered the holiest week for believers as it begins with Jesus’s triumphant arrival in Jerusalem; includes His most humbling act of servitude when He washes the disciple’s feet; the last supper with His followers on earth before His crucifixion; His suffering and death on the cross and His glorious resurrection from the dead.  It is a week like no other in history lived out by the Son of God to die for our sins and set us free if we choose to follow Him.  Wow!  Take a minute and … Read the rest

He’s Got It, Let It Go!

ESTHER’S WARRIORS MINISTRY 

I pray this finds you well and prospering in God’s perfect will for your life.   Spring has arrived and this year we are seeing record high temperatures in much of the country.  Weather patterns are shifting with unusual tornado activity in areas not thought of as part of ‘tornado alley.’  Please keep all in our Nation who are battling natural disasters and loss of loved ones in prayer for restoration and safety.

What exactly does God’s perfect will in your life look like?  There really is a difference between living in His permissive will or living in … Read the rest

Fill The Bowl!

ESTHER’S WARRIORS MINISTRY

 Blessings!  Did you remember to set your clocks ahead last night?   The term ‘spring forward’ always amused me as we actually lose an hour of sleep.  I don’t know about you but losing that hour can take the spring out of your step until your body adjusts!  The good news is that spring is well on the way and brings a season of new growth and renewed hope.  Life seems just a little bit better when flowers begin to bloom and the earth comes alive with the smells and sounds of nature.  God’s palate of color far … Read the rest

A Lenten Reflection

ESTHER’S WARRIORS MINISTRY 

This week we celebrate President’s Day in honor of all Presidents
in our Nation’s history.  Who do you admire most as President?  A February 18, 2012, Gallup poll indicated that Ronald Reagan ranked number one.  In his inaugural address on January 21, 1985, he said, “May He continue to hold us close as we fill the world with our sound…one people under God, dedicated to the dream of freedom that He placed in the human heart, called upon now to pass that dream on to a waiting and hopeful world.”  May He continue to hold us close … Read the rest

Open The Door To Your Heart

I pray this finds you encouraged with the potential of the year that lies ahead as we come to the end of this first month.  The concept of first fruits means that what we do in the beginning profoundly affects what follows.  As what we hold in our heart (and it is always a heart issue) will manifest in our life it is critical that we check our heart  often and clear whatever does not line up with God’s best for us.  We have purposed this first month of 2012 to put God first in prayer and in reading the Read the rest

Aligning Your Heart Through Prayer

Blessings to you as we walk together through this first month of 2012 seeking God and His very best for us in the coming year.  Last week we looked at the low percentages of Christians who read their Bible.  I pray
that you felt moved to put time in the Word as a priority in your life.  In the season we are in in this country we must be washed in the Word.  Do not ever forget that in the armor of God the Word of God is the only offensive
weapon.  It is, “…the sword of the Spirit, which … Read the rest

We Hold This Truth To Set Us Free

 

 

I pray this finds you well and seeking the Lord in this first month of 2012.  Last week we discussed some things you can do to refocus and reorder your life to attain the fullness He died to give you.  To purpose to pray, to read the Bible, to forgive, and to work on your relationship with Him are crucial to having a victorious walk with Him on your life journey.  We each have desires of our hearts for this season.  Keep ever in your heart (and it
is always a heart issue) the words Jesus speaks to … Read the rest
