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!’

How’s your “love walk?” It is never too late to turn it around. Start today! 🙂
Bottom Line: “Love one another as I have loved you.” Love, Jesus
“Then said Jesus to His disciples, “If any man will come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for My sake shall find it.”
Matthew 16:24-25
This scripture trips up many because they want to live with one foot in the Kingdom of God and one still in the world. To truly follow Jesus you have to completely turn your life and all it entails over to Him. Many can verbally express that Jesus
Are you discouraged? Have you held on to a vision for a very long time? Do you wonder if you heard clearly so very long ago?
It can be easy to limit your sight to what you see right in front of you. It can be easy to let the spirit of defeat weigh down your own spirit. Do not go there even for a moment as that can take you on a downward spiral. Bring every thought captive at the onset!
Lift up your eyes from where you stand. Enlarge your scope beyond what you think you see in
In reading the Bible this morning I came across a scripture that I want to share with you.
For it is written:
“Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written in it; for the time is near.”
Revelation 1:3
First and foremost, the promise of God is blessing to those who read this book of the Bible.
Second, not only must you read the words but also hear them. Head knowledge alone is insufficient. Recitation alone is insufficient. To hear them is to let them go
You know those people who get all involved in other people’s lives and business? Decide not to be that person. Keep your life simple. Focus on your own walk and that of those you are responsible to lead and guide. Leave the rest to God for only He fully sees their heart, motives and situation.
You only see an infinitesimal portion of any situation. To think you know it all from that very narrow vantage point is to operate from a perspective of pride at its fullest. Stay out of it. Judge not. Work out your own salvation!

The Kingdom of God is established in this season as the remnant stands. Those with ears to hear: Arise!
Knowing a lot of facts simply means you know a lot of facts. Knowing God’s truth…therein lies wisdom. Seek His truth!
Some people go through life not considering the impact that their words and actions have on those around them. They do and say whatever works for them at the moment with little regard for others. In their mind they are righteous, yet they can leave a trail of devastation behind them.
Do not be that person! Consider your words. Put the needs of others above your own. Show compassion. It is not about what you may perceive has been done to you. It is every bit about how you respond and what you carry in your heart. It is after
In reading 2 Corinthians today about Paul’s thorn in the flesh some things occurred to me. Much speculation has been made over the centuries about what his thorn may have been but all you really need to know is that something challenged him ‘in the flesh’ that God did not remove. He asked God to take it away three times. I often marveled that he only asked three times. How often do you ask for a challenge to be removed from your life? I know I certainly exceed the three time pattern or request concerning the challenges in my life!
