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,

~On this weekend take a Sabbath rest. ~Jesus is the Lord of the Sabbath. ~Rest in Him!

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
So many today are “hearing from God.” What they purport to hear ranges from inconsequential things to major life changes. If you are hearing make sure it is God. There is another who speaks also and delights in leading God’s children in the wrong direction.
First of all, make sure what you are being told lines up with Scripture and the true nature of God. God would not tell you to do something or go somewhere that did not line up with His Word and His character.
Second, test the S(s)pirit you are hearing. Ask if it is the Spirit
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.”
How is 2018 treating you so far? There are already tremendous shifts taking place in the atmosphere. Doors are opening suddenly as other doors close on issues and circumstances that no longer serve a purpose.
Let those doors close and do not look back. When God opens a new door, walk through it with grace and anticipation. Know that His very best for you awaits you. God knows exactly when and how to open new vistas for you. Let Him. Release your hold on things to Him. Let Him move you forward this year in His perfect will and perfect
