Dear brothers and sisters in our Lord Jesus, part of the growing repentance remnant, cleansing as His Bride, getting ready for His soon return as our Bridegroom,
On Monday March 6 many worldwide will join God's Chosen People in honoring Esther, during Purim. We learn in Esther 2: 7 that she didn't have a mother or father to raise her; her uncle Mordecai, a Benjamite living in Shusan, did so. He must have planted strong Biblical Truths which she further developed in her twelve months' preparation (Esther 2:12) before being taken before King Ahasuerus.
Esther is a model for us today in every nation. It's time today to prepare, to cleanse with the Holy Spirit, to repent, to become a clean vessel for the Lord to move through in facing the pagan leadership all around us which wishes to do away with us. In Esther 5:1,2 english translations say: "Esther put on her royal robes and stood in the inner court of the king's palace...So it was, when the king saw Queen Esther standing in the court, that she found favor in his sight..."
My understanding is that the Hebrew translation says: " Esther put on the Kingdom." And the well known verse in Esther 4:14 is better translated: " And who knows whether you have not touched the Kingdom for such a time as this!"
She touched the Kingdom of the Living God in her humility, her submission to the Living God, and her boldness. All that moved God's Hand to save the Jews. Now we too, have to submit, to cleanse, to be bold as His vessels, for His Kingdom to move through each of us. Read this powerful Book of Esther again. Can you and I put our names there in place of hers? The Holy Spirit is immediately available to help us remove old sin strongholds, replacing them with His Word, His Almighty Kingdom.

Every day we receive requests for funds for food and medicine from pastors preaching repentance who we determine have real needs. We help as we can. The requests exceed the donations. We look to you: no church, no denomination, no other ministry is behind us. Do please pray, and give cheerfully as the Lord leads. Here's a current need:
Dear brother Jeffrey,
Greetings,
After a very successful "Uganda Kneels" with people repenting in
tears,the enemy is pushing hard against me.
We had 22 local church denominational representatives including Roman
Catholics priest ,Anglican pastors, Baptists and Pentecostals. There
was repentance, fellowship ,unity and good food. Six government
officials joined us including Police head in that community.Nothing
like that had ever happened before. God's pressence was real and two
families of church leaders got united. It was powerfully.
However,all that came at a cost.Up to now I still have some costs to
meet.The enemy tried to block funding.Not only for the seminar but
litetally everything.The hospital has zero medicine and yet we have
300 children to take care of, the bills have piled up,the car has
developed a gear box problem needing urgent fixing or I cannot move.
It seem the enemy wants to ground me in ministry inspite many open doors. My sponsors in ministry nolonger respond appropriately.
Therefore,I am taking days before the Lord in prayer with fasting. I
am always grateful for your prayer and financial support.please stand
with for basic medicine.About 1.2 million (usd 350 is needed urgently.
May God bless you

Luke 8: 2-3 lists those who ministered to Yeshua/ Jesus "from their substance." Those women are a great model of giving today; we don't know how much each gave, but each is now recognized eternally in God's Holy Word.
Question: Do you identify with those mentioned in Luke 8:3? Are you able to provide from your substance, your finances, as a Luke 8:3 person today to advance His gift of repentance? Whatever the amount, if you give with a cheerful heart, fruit will abound to your account.
Getting ready for His return,
God bless you,
