Keep your mind focused on eternal things of lasting value. This life is but a vapor. Material things have no long term worth.
Following the “worldly crowd” to “fit in,” whether in or out of church, does not set you apart for Kingdom purpose. Set your priorities on things above.
Let Jesus be your pattern to live by in this season. Follow Him daily and stay ever close in relationship with Him to hear His direction “for such a time as this!’’ If Jesus Christ is truly Lord of your life you have been set apart. Live accordingly.
Do you ever feel that you cannot take one more thing? Do you find yourself at the tipping point between OK and over the edge? You are not alone. Everyone at some time experiences this. The key is do not park there and do not live there.
Living in a hyper-vigilant state is more and more prevalent today. Many live with chronic health conditions, PTSD, financial challenges, relationship challenges, etc. Whatever your particular challenge may be, never lose hope.
1) God can heal and restore.
2) God can turn around for good what was meant for harm.
In Esther’s Warriors Ministry, we began in 2012 ‘praying the states’ for healing for our Nation. Queen Esther went before the king to intercede for her people. We go before the King to intercede for our Nation ‘for such a time as this’ (Esther 4:14). We pray for each state in the order of admission to the Union and will continue. Our Nation more than ever needs consistent, diligent prayer cover state by state.
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,

How often do you lean on your own understanding of a given situation in your life? You think you see all the facts, all the players and ultimately the best solution. We only see in part. Actually, we see only a very, very small part.
If you truly follow Jesus Christ as the Lord of your life you will learn along the way that to wait for His direction is always the best course of action to take. At times, that course of “action” means seemingly no “action.”
It can be very frustrating in the natural to wait as we
Some folks live in a continual swirl of drama, never taking a moment to rest. For some, drama is a way of life. It can be generational. It can be territorial. Whatever the root cause, it is detrimental.
Choosing to live your life drenched in drama negatively affects body, mind, emotion and spirit. The constant stress wears down every single aspect of your life. Heart disease, cancer, diabetes, mystery illnesses and more are skyrocketing in these days. Although there are many other contributing factors such as poor diet, toxic chemicals, lack of sleep, excessive reliance on electronic communication, etc., embracing
Today in the United States of America we commemorate the life and legacy of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Dr. King was first and foremost a Christian and a Pastor. During his journey of impact on our Nation he took a non-violence stance. Sadly, many like to represent him as a proponent of violence and a welfare system that holds people captive for generations. Nothing could be further from the truth.
He was for equal work for equal pay for all. He stood for bringing folks together not dividing this great Nation. His “I have a Dream” speech has

Faith is knowing without doubt that God can do what He says He can. Trust is required. The outcome is priceless!
For it is written:
“God is not a man, that He should lie, nor a son of man, that He should repent. Has He said, and will He not do? Or has He spoken, and will He not make it good?”
Numbers 23:19
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all (emphasis added) your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.”
