  1. They speak more about their children than of

  2. the Lord. I don't have time to seek the Lord

  3. because I'm busy with my children. And their

  4. life of prayer Sick is dry. And you see these

  5. mothers. I've seen them. That when the children

  6. grow up and leave, they're dry. And Jesus is

  7. not in them. And they don't have life. Because

  8. they made of their children an idol. And others

  9. is their spouse, and others is their worker.

  10. And others is the clothes that they wear. They

  11. live to buy because they want to cover up with

  12. their clothes the insecurity they carry inside

  13. when the only thing they have to do. His goal

  14. before they're created, who has the capacity

  15. to remind them all the time who they are in Him.

  16. Esther, being a young woman, being a young girl,

  17. she was that type of young lady. It's about the

  18. Lord. It's about loving Him without reservations.

  19. And this young girl, so tremendous, speak to

  20. us about the kind of woman we have to be in this

  21. season. This book of Esther. Reveal so much of

  22. the Lord. Three things that it reveals of him.

  23. And I love this church. And I believe we can

  24. all identify with it. They know how to deal with

  25. the government of the nations. They put them

  26. on and they take them off. You didn't see last

  27. year when they entered into a place and they

  28. said, Jesus Christ is the Lord. You have to go

  29. to that small place next to here. Because the

  30. God places and removes kings. He who exalts himself

  31. will be humbled. He is God. He is God. Above

  32. all government. Wait. Why do you fight? Why do

  33. you put horrible comments on social media? Why

  34. do you frustrate yourself? Because you're fighting

  35. the flesh. We don't fight in flesh. We fight

  36. in the spirit. Esther. Esther. Esther. didn't

  37. begin to fight with Amon. Amen. This was in fasting

  38. and in prayer to the one who had power to deal

  39. with the governments of this earth. You, woman,

  40. young or old, have a power of the spirit of God

  41. within you. That made you to be born again. By

  42. the finished work on the cross. Which opened

  43. up the way. So you can go before him. Instead

  44. of fighting through social media. Pray. So that

  45. you can see how the Lord is going to hear. I'm

  46. gonna give you a tip. Do you know why many sisters

  47. don't pray? For two reasons. Because they don't

  48. believe that the Lord is listening. Listen to

  49. what I'm saying, they don't feel like they deserve

  50. for the Lord to hear them. The Lord eventually

  51. involves the emotions, but the majority of the

  52. things in Christianity, in the beginning emotions

  53. are not involved. That's why he left faith as

  54. a lifestyle. The righteous by faith will live.

  55. And the measure we begin to give ourselves without

  56. reservation to the Lord, by the power of the

  57. Spirit of God within us, what at the beginning

  58. we didn't like, eventually, Eventually it defeats

  59. by obedience to Him. So there are many things

  60. that many of you haven't done. Because you're

  61. waiting to feel. I'm gonna wait to feel until

  62. I want to forgive. I want to wait until I feel

  63. like. That feeling like, feeling like. The Christian

  64. life at the beginning is the majority of faith.

  65. Ask a man or a woman of God that walked with

  66. the Lord for a good time. And you'll be surprised

  67. to know they did many things without feeling

  68. it in the Lord. The Lord Jesus himself gave us

  69. an example. Luke chapter 22. When he went to

    Luke 22 chapter mention

  70. the mount... of the olives before he went to

  71. the cross. And he said, Father, Father, let your

  72. will be done in mine. And his own flesh for a

  73. moment he didn't want to obey. But he overcame

  74. the will of his father within him. And he says,

  75. if this young lady, she lived like this, the

  76. second thing that you see in this book, the love

  77. of her people and the full capacity to preserve

  78. her people, because as much as Amen tried to

  79. destroy the people of God, he couldn't. He had

  80. power, he had influence, he had money, he had

  81. laws, but he couldn't. Because what the Lord

  82. loves, God preserves it. And this life and in

  83. the next, what is not in the will of God for

  84. that beloved is his church. When you understand

  85. that the Lord loves you, And that He keeps you

  86. and preserves you. Even sadness tastes good.

  87. Because you know that the Lord is in the middle.

  88. Where is that in the Bible? Romans chapter 8.

    Romans 8 chapter mention

  89. Those that love the Lord, all things are for

  90. good. Even though that makes us cry. Even though

  91. that will hurt us. Even though what gives us

  92. suffering. The Lord will always turn it to good.

  93. There's no thing that you go through. Nothing

  94. is eternal in this life. Everything will just

  95. pass. Ecclesiastes chapter three. Time to cry,

  96. time to laugh. Time to work. And time to rest.

  97. Everything has a sign. And what you understand,

  98. that that beloved of the Lord, that everything

  99. that you're going through now will not stray

  100. you away from the Lord. Will not apart you from

  101. his love. First because you're... You're given

  102. up on, but you know that the Lord is working

  103. in that within you. Are you understanding? And

  104. the third, what you see in the book of Esther,

  105. and I like this, her divine grace to choose someone

  106. so fragile like an orphan child, but in the hands

  107. of the Lord, She was a strong tool to bring to

  108. salvation an entire people. What's so fragile

  109. than an orphan child without money? And the Lord

  110. says, her. She is who I'm going to reveal myself

  111. to her life. And the measure of the revelation

  112. of God in her is what gave her the capacity to

  113. be the type of woman she was and be used by the

  114. Lord to save the people of Israel. Be where the

  115. Messiah would come from. Don't despise yourself

  116. Don't despise yourself Don't despise yourself

  117. Don't despise yourself Don't despise yourself

  118. Don't despise yourself Don't believe in the enemy's

  119. lies that speak to your mind everything that

  120. even today the enemy has spoken to your mind

  121. because he speaks to the mind the carnal mind

  122. not the spiritual mind because the spiritual

  123. mind understands what's true and what's a lie

  124. when you start to believe things that are not

  125. in the Bible You begin to operate in what Paul

  126. said in Romans that it's a fleshy mind. How do

  127. you overcome that? With the help of the Holy

  128. Spirit, with the truth of his word, Paul said

  129. in Philippians 4 -8, everything just, everything

  130. just, all that's pure, all that's good, everything

  131. that's a good name. Si hay virtud, if there's

  132. a virtue, si algo digno de alabanza, something

  133. worthy of praise, en esto. In this, in this,

  134. in this thing. No, I can't do it. Is that in

  135. the Bible? No, Philippians 4 .13 says I can do

  136. all things through Christ who strengthens me.

  137. You don't know how many times I have to speak

  138. to myself. And remind myself of what the Lord

  139. says I am. The good circumstances that I've gone

  140. in my life are so strong. They're so difficult

  141. and made me cry. So much that I have to live.

  142. I have to live my life and remind my life of

  143. what the Lord says about my future. Tonight you

  144. have to let go. El Señor me mando esta noche

  145. que tiene que soltar. The Lord sent me tonight

  146. because you have to let go. The times that we're

  147. living with are so tough. When you read the church

  148. of Acts, it was the primitive church, where the

  149. Lord begins his church. When the church is born,

  150. when the Lord goes to the heavens, And he gives

  151. the command to his disciples. The church grows.

  152. Amidst a political convulsion. in the middle

  153. of a human and satanic persecution. And that

  154. is where the bride rose up with the power of

  155. the spirit with glory. The bride of the Lord

  156. is not only on the cloud and with skirts church.

  157. The wonderful church, that bride, will go through

  158. problems, will go through circumstances. But

  159. to that young child, the circumstances didn't

  160. break. And do you know what impacts me of Esther?

  161. Is that they didn't change her. There are sisters

  162. that have a better job. And now they think they're

  163. the last coke of the desert. There are sisters

  164. that once were single and now they're married.

  165. And before them, they were always with the Lord

  166. and now once a year. The Lord spoke to me, not

  167. here, that there's a lot of false Christs. False

  168. Christs. Where is that in the Bible? In the book

  169. of John, 1 John chapter 4, Paul speaks about

    1 John 4 chapter mention

  170. false Christ. Jesus Christ in Matthew 24 speaks

  171. of false Christ. We have to be sure that the

  172. Jesus that we're worshipping is the true Christ.

  173. And the only way to know is through scripture,

  174. by the power of the Spirit of God. So the book

  175. of Esther, you get to know with the Lord how

  176. he uses that young lady. in such a marvelous

  177. way. And he makes us understand that he doesn't

  178. give an exception to people. It doesn't matter

  179. where we're coming from. It doesn't matter what

  180. we have or don't have. He is seeking a bride

  181. that's given up of herself. A bride that is giving

  182. up to herself is obedient. A bride that doesn't

  183. obey is not a bride. Worship without obedience

  184. is not genuine worship. John 4, 4. The Lord seeks

  185. worshippers that worship in spirit and in truth.

  186. We have everything. That's what we have to walk

  187. close to the Spirit of God. King Cercis, whom

  188. the Lord allows this young woman to get married

  189. to. A young lady that was consecrated to the

  190. Lord. because for her to have that character

  191. of God in him and Jesus in her, she had to have

  192. grown in Jesus. Where is that in the Bible? Mordecai

  193. was a man of God. He's who raised her and taught

  194. her the ways of the Lord and to this beautiful

  195. young girl. The Lord in his perfect plans and

  196. eternal plans takes her in a way where she has

  197. to marry a king. That even though he was a king,

  198. the Bible speaks that he was prideful. He was

  199. very powerful. Because he governed an entire

  200. region. He was a man that exceeded. He did of

  201. everything. We saw in the Bible that he was very

  202. wrathful. He would get mad. He was mad. He was

  203. mad all the time. That didn't have value or respect

  204. for anybody else's life. Look at what type of

  205. man he was. When Amon gives the order to annihilate,

  206. he says, okay, sign it, go. He didn't care. He

  207. was a terrible man. And this man. The Lord had

  208. already planned that Esther would marry him.

  209. This man makes a decision with them to throw

  210. a party. And you know how long those feasts lasted?

  211. Five months, 180 days. And in the last days of

  212. the feast, in Esther one from 10 to 12, that

  213. he was happy. The word happy means that he was

  214. drunk. And it occurred to him to call his wife

  215. Basti. to show everybody her beauty because the

  216. Bible says she was very beautiful but for a reason

  217. the Bible doesn't mention she refuses to go before

  218. the king and she disobeys publicly and because

  219. under the counsel of her counsel they dispute

  220. her They remove her as his wife. And that's in

  221. Esther chapter one. The Bible doesn't mention

  222. why she refused to go before the king. But one

  223. definition that the historians give They say

  224. that she refused to be an object. That after

  225. 15 years, 15 months, men that were drunk and

  226. lustful saw her as an object. that definition

  227. makes sense because when the king calls her he's

  228. in the middle of the feast and when you read

  229. chapter one you see that there was wine everywhere

  230. for whoever wanted it and this man gets mad and

  231. he removes Vashti and so then the council I don't

  232. have time to go into that. But then the council

  233. brings up a story of Cerces to put a decree out

  234. for women to obey their husbands. And that wasn't

  235. a question of obedience. That was a question

  236. of dignity. Because back then, the women didn't

  237. have any value. But when Christ came, He gave

  238. you and I the value by His blood. That's why

  239. you can't be walking around with rejection. You

  240. have to stand up and begin to walk like what

  241. you are. And this young girl lives in the only

  242. world that she knows, which is the house of her

  243. uncle, her cousin Mordecai. And when they pass

  244. that decree, they take her against her will with

  245. a whole bunch of other young girls to the king's

  246. palace. And this is where she's introduced to

  247. this type of element, to the king. Any of the

  248. single women would like that? She's introduced.

  249. She's deprived of everything. She's removed from

  250. the only family member she had. They take her

  251. to an unfamiliar place to prepare her under an

  252. intense process of beauty. And many of you probably

  253. say, oh, I want to be there. But that was a diet

  254. and restriction. Para después presentarla delante

  255. de un hombre extraño y despota y orgulloso. whom

  256. she had to have sexual relations with, and she

  257. was a virgin, and if the king didn't like her,

  258. she was then taken to a different room where

  259. she'll be there for the rest of her life. Look

  260. what kind of circumstances she's confronted with.

  261. But then here we start to see who Esther was,

  262. who the Lord had formed her within. And this

  263. young girl amidst those circumstances had already

  264. taken the decision since she was little of the

  265. type of life she was going to live. You have

  266. to make a decision. There are some of you that

  267. are found in the valley of decisions. And I stayed

  268. in the middle of the message because I want to

  269. minister. But the times that we are living in...

  270. are very delicate times. There are times of preparation

  271. of the bride. One of the marks of the preparation

  272. of the bride is to be ready for the Lord. Jesus

  273. said without holiness no one would see the Lord.

  274. Not everyone that says Lord, Lord will enter

  275. the kingdom of heaven. It's necessary for the

  276. Lord to work in us. I'll give you a word that

  277. the Lord gave me a few months ago, at the beginning

  278. of the year. For me, he said, we're in a season.

  279. Where he said, Diana, you have to do three things,

  280. you and your family. He says, you have to. The

  281. first thing he said. And now where? You have

  282. to allow me to prepare them for the persecution

  283. that's coming. The persecution is going to come,

  284. church. We're in a season of preparation in the

  285. spiritual and in the natural. But persecution,

  286. we're not going to be able to avoid it. You,

  287. mother, have to prepare your children for the

  288. times that are coming. But you, you're not consecrated.

  289. How are you going to give to your children? Most

  290. of the things that we are now that we're adults,

  291. most of it comes from our fathers. So there are

  292. three things. One, we have to allow him to prepare

  293. us. In the book of Acts, the bride was persecuted.

  294. She was accused. And the Bible says that the

  295. latter glory will be greater than the present.

  296. The glory is not only the glory of His presence.

  297. The glory is what carries the glory. Because

  298. the Lord said if the world didn't love you, he

  299. didn't love me, he won't love you. If the world

  300. doesn't love us, what are we trying to do, trying

  301. to please the world? Oh no, I'm in the world

  302. with you. But I don't walk with the world. I

  303. don't dress like the world. I don't speak like

  304. the world. I don't try to please the world. The

  305. Bible says that the Lord lived among them. And

  306. he was among sinful people, but he never ate

  307. or did anything that they did. So the preparation

  308. of the bride is to prepare for the persecution.

  309. In that time when the persecution comes here,

  310. because in the Middle East and Asia and in Africa,

  311. they're already in that. The only nation that

  312. persecution hasn't come is the U .S. And it's

  313. gonna come, Brian. And we have to be prepared

  314. with a life that's fully given to the Lord and

  315. it's a glory that's gonna be within us now. Number

  316. two, we have to prepare economically. What does

  317. economically mean? To learn to live by faith.

  318. To learn to live by faith. And that requires

  319. of you being administrator of the finances. This

  320. is a time where you should try to get out of

  321. all debt. No, I have to exchange the car all

  322. the time. Who are you showing off your car to?

  323. If that car is going to put you into debt, why

  324. are you getting yourself in a new car? Who's

  325. an example of the church? Jose. Joseph, when

  326. hunger came, Joseph was prepared. He was the

  327. first minister of finances of the Pharaoh in

  328. Egypt. And when the hunger comes, that's tragedy

  329. and ministering through a dream. He kept the

  330. people of Israel again. We have to be prepared

  331. to be able to live by faith. The financial problem

  332. that you may have will not turn you a slave to

  333. your job. You have to be a servant to the Lord.

  334. About three years ago, the Lord said to me three

  335. years ago, and I would do it, but not all the

  336. time. He says, I want you to seek me again with

  337. your forehead on the floor. And on your knees,

  338. everything that you seek will be when you're

  339. on your knees. And you will lack nothing. Church,

  340. the preparation is a preparation of faith. The

  341. problems that you're going through is not for

  342. you to stay in the problem, but to learn to live

  343. by faith. is to learn to live by faith. Because

  344. when those times come, you will be ready. And

  345. what others may take you to make the wrong decisions,

  346. crazy decisions, you're gonna be maintaining

  347. faith with a clear mind, knowing who you believe

  348. in. And the Lord that delivered you today will

  349. deliver you tomorrow and the day after. So the

  350. way to prepare is believing in the Lord and obeying

  351. him. So that when those times come, we will not

  352. drown. With those that didn't learn, so we're

  353. gonna grab them by the hand and tell them, here,

  354. I'm gonna show you who is the fountain of life.

  355. And number three, the Lord spoke to me. And he

  356. said, this is the time. Like never before. We

  357. have to pray so that I can manifest in this nation.

  358. Because if you notice the lack of his presence

  359. is great even in his church. And only the Spirit

  360. of God has the power to penetrate those profound

  361. areas in our heart and change us and transform

  362. us. Why? Because He was the creator of the human

  363. being. This nation needs an awakening. Esther,

  364. when she was shaken for a moment, And Mordecai

  365. tells her, go speak before the king. She said,

  366. there is only one law. He who presents himself

  367. without him calling him. You'll be beheaded.

  368. Do you know what the word Mordecai means? In

  369. the Hebrew, means worshiper of the living God.

  370. Who wants a cousin like Mordecai? And Mordecai

  371. tells us, remember how you grew up. Remember

  372. how you grew up. Some of you have to remember

  373. them. That God of the glory. You need to wake

  374. up and stop. You need to stop dreaming and you

  375. need to wake up with an abundant life of Christ.

  376. Because when he forgave the adulterous woman,

  377. she was lustful, immoral, immoral. But the Lord

  378. says that she went to go seek water and the Lord

  379. spoke, there's a fountain, a living fountain

  380. where you will never have thirst. Why do we have

  381. to be prepared to love Him and walk with Him?

  382. But so that we may also do something. When Mordecai

  383. tells her, and she tells him that there's one

  384. law, she said, don't think that because you live

  385. in the king's house, you're going to be saved.

  386. You and your family shall perish. If breath and

  387. end, and restoration comes from another place,

  388. you will perish. And who knows if this time,

  389. the Lord has lifted you up, church. Woman, the

  390. Lord has called you from the womb of your mother's

  391. womb. could have been dead. Others could have

  392. been in horrible situations. Remember where the

  393. Lord took you out of. Do you remember when you

  394. came to the ways of the Lord? Do you remember

  395. when you were worshiping him in secret? When

  396. you wanted to speak to everybody about this Christ

  397. of glory? Remember wherever you would walk you

  398. would carry the glory of the Lord and you didn't

  399. care if people spoke to you or didn't speak to

  400. you? Do you remember when your problems weren't

  401. as vague as they are today? Do you remember when

  402. you would walk with joy? The Lord said many They

  403. lost my joy. He says when I'm the fountain of

  404. all joy and all laughter. The Bible says in the

  405. psalm we will be like those that dream. And our

  406. mouth will be filled with laughter. And our tongue

  407. of worship. The Lord wants you to remember. And

  408. you know the Bible says that those who grow near,

  409. He will grow near to them. The only thing we

  410. need is one step. Lift up your hands, but for

  411. real. Not with your mind wandering. For real.

  412. It's true. Lord, I am here again. And it's enough

  413. for Him to fill you again. Church. You are a

  414. part of that church. For such a time like this.

  415. So that you may be alone in your home. With your

  416. children. With your family. With your community.

  417. With your job. In your office. In your school.

  418. In your home. Where you live. in your neighborhood

  419. you become that light again and you arise again

  420. with that Christ of glory that you once knew

  421. but for that you have to rededicate your life

  422. and make the decision to leave again that whatever

  423. it is that In some of you, maybe it's a hurt.

  424. In others, maybe it's an offense. In others,

  425. maybe it's a problem. Or maybe a need. Or maybe

  426. a member of your family that you've been praying

  427. for for 20 years. Whatever it is, church, you

  428. have to give it to the Lord. Because the bride

  429. that he's coming for is a bride that's filled

  430. with him. says that the abundance of the heart

  431. speaks the mouth. That bride, that like us, sir,

  432. the problems don't overcome her, church. And

  433. that young lady in which she is, she came back.

  434. When she realized that she could die, she said,

  435. Mordecai and him. But when Mordecai reminded

  436. her who she is, in her God, and who was the God

  437. that she asked, and what God was there, she came

  438. to. And look what the words say. She said, tell

  439. the people to pray and fast with you. And I will

  440. go with my servants to pray and fast. And I will

  441. present myself before the King. And if I die,

  442. then I come. That's how Pastor Carolina lived.

  443. That's why nothing could defeat her. Not even

  444. death. Not to her or anyone else. A generation

  445. of witnesses that You decide what you're going

  446. to do with your life. You decide what you're

  447. going to do with the invitation of Jesus. To

  448. be the bride. For him to be the bridegroom. The

  449. bridegroom is jealous. He doesn't share his glory

  450. with anyone. The altar only has room for one

  451. person. In the people of Israel, the altar only

  452. one person. Oh Israel, your God only one. The

  453. commandment is the same for the church. Mark

  454. 12 .30 says you will love the Lord with all your

  455. heart, with all your mind, with all your strength.

  456. Today is the day that you have to make a decision.

  457. And if you take it, to rededicate your life,

  458. then everything that has separated you in the

  459. heart, the Lord will cleanse you and he will

  460. remove you from your life. from this day. And

  461. each day that you seek him, the Lord will be

  462. working more and more and more until you see

  463. yourself and you won't be able to recognize yourself.

  464. And the only thing that you and the people will

  465. see is that Christ of glory that has loved you

  466. till death. Close your eyes. I want to make a

  467. calling. It's a night of rededication. Tomorrow

  468. all day there will be a conference. Close your

  469. eyes. But some of you have to rededicate your

  470. life again. I rededicate my life every day to

  471. the Lord. Every day I rededicate it. Every day

  472. I wake up. And I rededicate it to the Lord. Yesterday

  473. is gone. Tomorrow is not. It's not sure. We only

  474. have today. What is the calling? If you tell

  475. me Diana. There are areas in my life that I've

  476. restrained from the Lord. There's areas in my

  477. heart that are dry and need to be brought back

  478. to life by my Lord. There are areas in my heart

  479. that are not fully given to the Lord. I love

  480. him, but I don't feel it. I'm not given to surrender.

  481. I'm not surrendered. And I want to come back

  482. to my original calling, which is to love the

  483. Lord, to live for Him, so that then in a time

  484. for such as this, He will do everything that

  485. He does.
