In this live stream, speaker Shakeeta Torres reintroduces herself to her audience after a two‑month hiatus, outlines the purpose of the session, and shares the trajectory of her personal and professional life. She recounts her spiritual surrender in 2008, the subsequent church hurt and personal trauma she endured, and how those experiences propelled her toward a dual calling as a Christian leader and licensed therapist. Shakeeta describes her varied ministry roles—usher, prayer team member, dance ministry leader—and expands the definition of Christian leadership to include any position of oversight within a faith context. She explains how she integrated her therapeutic training with her faith, opened a private practice in 2017, and now mentors other Christian therapists. Drawing from her own healing journey, she identifies common struggles among emerging and established Christian leaders, such as perfectionism, imposter syndrome, communication issues, and mother‑wound trauma. She announces upcoming resources: a free November webinar, the launch of her Christian Leadership Academy (later renamed Empowered Purpose Academy) in January, and related books and coaching programs. Throughout, she emphasizes the necessity of intentional healing, accountability, community, and prayer for leaders to be effective and whole, concluding with a heartfelt prayer for Christian leaders worldwide.
Chapters
Good evening. All righty, so here I am. I'm live on Facebook, Instagram, and on YouTube. So welcome, you guys. Welcome, welcome, welcome. Um, as you guys are coming in, I'm going to go ahead and just, um, say who I am, reintroduce myself, okay? Because I have not been live in— it's been a little over 2 months, you guys, almost 2 months now. And since then, I've, you know, gained new followers. I've also got new people on my email list too. And so welcome, thank you guys for being here. If you're coming back to watch the replay, please put in the comment section hashtag replay. Or if you are getting on right now, be sure to let me know where you are from, whether you're on Instagram, Facebook, or on YouTube. So I'm excited to be back. It has been, I feel like, forever. Um, 2 months is not a long time for some people, but for me, going from going live almost every week, um, to now going live, you know, after 2 months is a long time to me. So the last live I did was actually a word I released, um, called War in the Thunder. And during that time, um, it was so much going on in the spirit, and the Lord had me release a video and a word about how he was coming. He was coming, things were getting ready to happen. And my God, my God, you guys, so much has happened in just the past 2 months, okay? Um, you know, as I said before, you know, the ministry, the body of Christ, um, governmental stuff, music industry, it's just a lot, you know, one thing after another. Um, but the Lord has warned us and prepared us for this. And so I've just been busy, focused on my assignment and what God has been asking me and calling me to do. So again, uh, my name is Shakeeta Torres. I'm a speaker, I'm an author, a licensed therapist, and a life coach. Okay, and so let me go back a little bit. So during my time away, I've been busy with family, busy with ministry, busy working, and doing so many different things. My family and I caught COVID in the beginning of September. It took us almost 2 weeks to recover from that as well. My kids are back in school, so we got schoolwork to do after, um, after they got out of school, so much more, right? Activities, all of the above. But I have been asking the Lord, I'm like, okay Lord, so what's next? What do you want me to focus on next when it comes to my own ministry and business? Okay, and so I had this, uh, feeling in my heart that was heavy on me, like, go back to the beginning, go back to the very beginning of when you first started, you know, your social media platforms. And my first platform I did was actually on Instagram, okay? Um, and I had to go back. I'm like, wow, God, you had me really, you know, talking to Christian leaders, okay? And the core of my ministry and business has always been heal on purpose for your purpose, specifically those who are called into Christian leadership. It is so important. And so, you know, even then I didn't actually move on it right away. I kind of like wrote it down, but I began to receive so many confirmations through my business mentor, through my best friend, through my husband, like, yeah, I feel like God is telling you to go there. To go there next, right? Kind of go back to the beginning. So you guys can see that I have been posting like reels, um, about, you know, Christian leadership, healing from perfectionism, imposter syndrome, and so much more. So I did do a Christian leadership series, uh, last year around this time. It was a 10-part series, okay? And from that, um, I created a workbook to go with that series too. But I am doing something new as well in this season for Christian leaders. Okay, so with that being said, tonight is going to be more of just allowing God to have his way and for me to really speak, um, what's on my heart, the things I've seen, share with you all a little bit more about my journey, um, you know, all that good stuff. So for me, um, I can't really pinpoint— well, yes I can. So I gave my life to God back in 2008, okay. So in '08, I mean, I said, when I say I surrendered, I surrendered. Because prior to that, you know, I had, you know, got involved with church before and ministry before, but I will always backslide, meaning that I would go back into the world trying to do my own thing, you know, thinking that, you know, that the world had much more to offer me. And I actually ran from God for quite a while. And so, you know, one day, you know, one of my friends on my job at the time invited me to come to her church, and I liked it. It was amazing. But I can just feel this pull, like this God pulling me. And, um, as I continue to go, I, I already knew that, okay, God, you about to pretty much yank me up. And he did. He did. Because I could still hear God's voice. I, I would still hear from him. I would still have dreams and visions and things like that, but I wasn't fully surrendered to the Lord, okay? Um, and so when I got saved in '08, you know, I fully gave him my whole heart, my whole everything, okay? And so from there, um, the Lord begins to deal with me about healing immediately, immediately, okay? Because I was a part of a ministry called Fivefold Ministry where, you know, it was normal for us to see miracles, signs, and wonders. It was normal for us to hear God's voice, um, to hear prophecy, right? That was heavy on the gifts of the spirit. But when it came to actually healing mentally and emotionally, that was not talked about pretty much at all. Okay, so here I am in a ministry and I'm going— I'm growing spiritually like exponentially. Okay, I'm growing. All right, and during this time I was also getting ready to start grad school to become a therapist eventually. Okay, so the program that I was a part of was a part-time program. I was actually working full-time at the time as well. My husband and I were actually, um, just about to get married, and so much more was going on, right? God was doing a great work in our lives. And so I've definitely experienced my own share of church hurt, of disappointment from leaders, uh, but now moving, you know, fast forward to today, I recognized that it was necessary for me to be where I am today, it was necessary for me to be able to be equipped and to be able to have my own story to back up what it is that I'm able to do today, okay, which is help his people to heal on purpose, okay. So while, you know, I was in church and coming up, you know, I've noticed so many different things with people, you know, poor communication. It was just like spiritually was great, but when it came down to dealing with people in the natural, like one-on-one, in the group, It was just— it was chaotic, to be honest. It was, it was chaotic, okay? But that's my truth, all right? So, um, from there, you know, the first thing I did in ministry— I was a, um, I was an usher at first. So I was an usher. I loved it. I was just so excited just to be able to serve y'all. I just love serving. I love serving God, you know. I enjoy serving God's people, you know, with boundaries, of course. I'm only one person, um, but I did that first. Also, um, over time, I ended up being, um, my aunt's armor bearer. Um, I joined like the intercessory prayer team, so I'm heavy on prayer. Um, I used to lead a dance ministry, um, a mom dance ministry— not a mom, but I was a part of a mom dance ministry. But then the pastor asked me to be over a dance team. That was amazing. It was powerful. It was just, uh, everything. Um, and so I've served in quite, you know, a few roles when it comes to, you know, leadership. And serving is not always being at the forefront. A Christian leader is not always at the very forefront, like on a platform like this, right? You could be leading an usher team, you could be leading, you know, um, praise and worship. It's so many different ways in which a Christian leader serves. Not just pastor, just not, you know, prophet, teacher, apostle. It's not just those things, you guys. It is, you know, what God— it's like pretty much overseeing people. If you are overseeing people in any capacity and you profess to be a Christian and you leading them with Christian values, then you are considered to be a Christian leader. Okay, and so with that being said, fast forward, you know, I serve here and serve there. While I was in school, at the same time being a babe in Christ, I recognized that I had a lot of unhealed trauma. So me becoming a therapist and then also allowing God to do a work in me you know, at the same exact time, it was expedited in a sense, right? So here I am in school studying to be a therapist, but at the same time I'm building my relationship with God. So as a babe in Christ, I was hungry. I was hungry. I was in my word all the time. I was, you know, I had this like incredible encounter with the Lord time and time and time and time, even to this day, time and time and time again, the Lord keeps showing himself to me So this is why I serve so faithfully, and this is why I'm so obedient, because God has given me so much grace, you guys. He has been so good to me. He has blessed me tremendously. Do I have trials still? Absolutely. But I have— I have to persevere and push past, you know, my own stuff to continue to run my race and do what God's calling me to do, even at times I don't feel like it. That's human, right? It's anybody. It's working at your job, it's the same way, right? So what I've noticed is that I said, Lord, I said, I've been hurt by many people, and I don't want to be that leader to hurt other people as well. And so I was very intentional about my own healing journey, meaning that, you know, I was reading books, you know, I went counseling myself, um, you know, I was spending time with the Lord, journal— I journaled a lot, and I still do to this day. I journal a lot because that's how I communicate with God. This is how I'm able to really, you know, interpret some of my dreams that I have. I'm able to really see, you know, how I'm feeling and to get stuff out, right? Because I take in so much now that I am a leader that I have to be able to have my own outlets as well. I do have my husband, I have my best friend, you know. I don't have a therapist right now, but I've had a couple in my past, you know, two 2 or 3 in the past that were amazing. So I've done my work. And so what I've noticed is that we have so many people who are emerging Christian leaders or who are existing Christian leaders, and they are spiritually gifted, they are anointed, they are powerful in the Lord. They can preach you down, preach the house down, they can teach, but they're broken. They're so broken, and they lack you know, confidence. You know, some of them honestly can be very arrogant, you know, and the list goes on. And so, and fast forward to 2017 is whenever the Lord, um, had, you know, pretty much told me to open up my own private practice as a therapist. So before that, I was working for another company for about 5 years or so. I call that my training ground, where, you know, I was counseling all kind of people from all walks of life, from all different religions,, you know, denominations and so on and so on, right? Like, honestly, I, I can counsel anybody, but it's— I can counsel them, it don't mean I'm called to them, if that makes sense, okay? So long story short, you know, I went into my own private practice, and, you know, I asked the Lord, I said, Lord, you know, who are you calling me to? Like, what's my niche? Like, how should I, like, market myself? And he was like, I'm calling you to the body of Christ. I'm calling you to help them to heal, you know, mentally and emotionally. And he also told me not to market as much. I've marketed myself on a few platforms, but to heavily market myself, he told me not to do that because he was sending the people to me. And that was hard because I'm like, it was going so slow. But again, that also was like training ground for me too, to be able to really learn how to combine my faith and my principles and hearing God but also counseling his people his way. Okay, so I also mentor Christian therapists as well. Okay, so, um, and he did that, y'all. I mean, I had all kind of clients who were believers from different walks of life at different levels. Some were babies, some were more seasoned in their walk, but they needed a place to heal. And oh my God, I've seen God work miracles in these people. What do I mean by that? So when I say miracles, right, of course God can do something instantly. But when it comes to healing, and you're healing with the Holy Spirit, you guys, it actually a little bit faster because God knows you. He knows what you need. He— you, you know, you're his son, you're his daughter, and he can meet you right where you are. And honestly, it also depends on you, the person, how much you are willing to surrender and be vulnerable to the process. Okay, so if you know that you need to heal, you also need to surrender. So of course I would have clients that would come that recognize I need healing, but they weren't ready. And so that's a common thing that I would see too. They would come talk about different things, but then they would get nervous or even overwhelmed no matter what I did to try to make it, you know, make it a little bit more digestible in a sense. Because healing is a journey. You're not going to heal from everything overnight, okay? Um, I'm walking with the Lord now for a long time, about almost 15 years, like, and, you know, intentionally, meaning that I spend the time with him. I'm giving him my life, you know. Even whenever I wanted to walk away from ministry at times because it was just so much, God was like, no, like, you already surrendered to me, you belong to me. So even if I tried to stop what I'm doing it won't work out for me, put it that way, because I'm in too deep at this point. Okay, and so my primary message to you again, if you are a Christian leader, the Lord desires to see you whole, whole mentally and spiritually, not just whole when you— when it comes to your gifts and the gifts of the Spirit. Um, I've counseled, um, pre-K kids, kids who, um, were born into a family who has, you know, who are in ministry, and they are broken. They witnessed their parents lead from broken places time and time and time again, and it showed up in counseling, okay? And so now, you know, I'm in ministry, my husband's in ministry, you know, he's not on a public platform like that, but he's in ministry too, and we have children. And so even with my girls, you know, I work really hard, we work really hard to give them that balance, right? Uh, like, you're human. Yes, you belong to God, they hear God, they, they have their own relationship with God, but also be that safe place for them to be able to be honest, to be transparent, to share how they're feeling, you know, to share if they're struggling at, you know, at school that day. Not, oh, pray it away. Y'all, we are human beings, okay? So recently, um, I sent out a survey to my email list, um, and I didn't realize how many Christian leaders have signed up for my email list until I went back and looked at it like 2 weeks ago. It was like almost 100 people. And I said, oh, okay, okay, you, you serious about this thing? So the, the common things that they were struggling with was communication, um, trying to find balance, dealing with rejection, perfectionism, imposter syndrome. Well, all the things that I have been teaching on, you know, since last year. And so over the next 2 or 3 months, you know, I'll be sharing with you all and talking to you all more about, you know, Christian leadership. Um, I am opening up my Christian Leadership Academy in January. I'll go ahead and tell you that now. And so what that consists of is going to be like a group coaching where, um, people who desire to be in a group setting, they have community to be able to learn from each other, to be able to work on, um, skills. Okay, skills. Okay, uh, because the gifts are amazing, but remember that gifts are irrevocable in the word of God, and it— you can operate in your gifts without repentance. Meaning that if you are a person who is living any kind of way, you can still have gifts operating on you guys. But honestly, that's what Satan does. Satan has gifts, okay? He's not in the things of God, but his gifts still work for him, okay? So I want you to remember that. And y'all, I'm telling you, y'all, I thank God that I said that little prayer to him that day. I said, Lord, whatever you do, whatever you calling me to— at that time I had no idea what I was called to— I said, Lord, please make sure that I am equipped. God, take your time with me. Lord, help me to heal. And he has healed me to my word, okay? Um, and so when I go through seasons of hurt or disappointment, uh, you know, from people and things, lost relationships, right? The Lord would deal with me. He's like, yeah, I'm gonna give you time to grieve and give you time to, you know, you know, be hurt. He's like, but you, you're gonna have to give your heart to me over and over again. When it comes up, give your heart to me, you know, talk about it, process it, you know, do all that, do all those good things, right? Do those things, but don't stay there. That's the problem. Many people stay in their pain. They live in the pain. They don't want to talk about it because that might hurt so bad. Uh, and the list goes on. And no one person is alike. No one person is alike, okay? We're all different. We have different upbringings. And of course, there's so many different denominations as well in Christianity, um, and so much more. But just know that that's what the Lord is leading me to do in this fall, this fall leading into the new year. That's going to be my primary focus. Um, in November I'll be having a webinar where it's like in Zoom and it'd be like more personal. It'll be a free webinar, um, to— for Christian leaders, okay? And I'll share with you later what it'll be about, not right now, but if you want to, um, join my email list to know when I have it, you know, definitely do that. Um, my academy Um, EPA, Empowered Purpose Academy. I have— oh my gosh, God has had me create so much stuff, and I'm just, I'm just in awe, to be honest. I'm just in awe at the speed of which I've been able to create stuff and it still be quality content and it's still quality books. Like, when someone buy anything from me and they tell me how much it has blessed them, that blesses me because I created it with the Holy Spirit and I created it from a pure place. But I've also created it from my years of education, um, and my years of investment. And so healing, it does require investment of number one, your time. Your time. You listen, as you get busy in family and ministry, it is a lot harder to focus on your healing journey. So it's best to do it whenever you are— I want to say completely idle, but when you really have that time to focus on it, um, and then also it can be investment of your money. As I said earlier, you know, I had to invest, you know, I bought books, you know. I'm also a therapist, that costs a lot of, a lot of money, okay. Um, um, I went to therapy as well. I had, you know, coaching myself before, you know. I invest in my business, you know. So it's not— everything's not gonna be free because it's ministry related, it don't mean it's gonna be free. And so the Academy opened up in January once again, and, um, it's going to be amazing. It's going to be amazing. I'm not— this— not this year, but last year I did, uh, my Christian life coaching certification, um, with my students, and it was amazing. We met, I think, maybe, I think 6 to 8 weeks, I can't remember, but it was so good. Like, they learned so much, and just like the Lord just really did a work in them and just gave them so much, y'all. So listen, I'm just a vessel, but I also have to do my work as well to make sure that I'm prepared to be be able to pour into God's people. Okay, so I'm looking at my notes. I really was just free, just, just, just flowing just now. So what are some signs that you need to heal? Um, it's a lot of signs, you guys, but I'm gonna call out some for you so that way you kind of, you know, have an idea. So, so if this is you, you need to get on my email list, okay, ASAP. Um, mother wounds. I definitely have mother wounds. Um, rejection. Of course, anxiety and depression. And what I realized too, as a therapist, is that many people I have counseled before recognize they had depression but not anxiety, because anxiety does look different for a lot of people. Now, this is my experience now. Now, some people do know, but for me, most of my clients didn't know. So if you're always worried, if you are always tired, fatigue, right? Because when you have anxiety, your system is going up and down, up and down, up and down, and that makes you exhausted as well. Um, also, um, they would, um, can't sleep at night, you know, up, you know, just thinking, thinking, thinking, thinking, and the list goes on. And so my academy is going to address all this stuff too. Um, negative self-talk or self-doubt. Um, you always feeling like you're not enough as a leader. You always feel like you're inadequate, that you can't, you know, meet this particular standard, uh, comparing yourself to other people in their ministry and what they're doing and where they are at on their journey and so much more. Um, you need constant validation. Now, I struggle with this badly, okay? So I'm gonna share this with you real quick, my quick testimony. So to be honest, so I started this online ministry and business in 2020. Well, in 2017, 2018, the Lord had released me to, to go ahead and start doing like a YouTube channel. And I started it and I was, you know, giving prophetic words but also talking about mental health as well. And it was going good, you know. And I was like, honestly, I was so nervous, of course. And I was just honored. I'm like, wow, God, you want me to do YouTube? Because I was like at church one Sunday and I kept hearing YouTube. I'm I'm like, I keep hearing YouTube. I'm like, YouTube. And then I was like, Lord, are you asking me to do YouTube channel? He was like, yes, I am, I am. And I said, okay. And so the first prophetic words he gave me were heavy words, y'all. It was heavy. And I didn't know how it would be perceived, okay. But it was received well. And then this one last word I had gotten, which I never released this word, and I'm doing— I'm gonna do it now. This was 2017. And he had gave me a word about Donald Trump. Now, I'm not an overly political person. Yes, I vote. Yes, you know, I'm paying attention, you know, but I don't allow myself to be, um, consumed with that stuff, okay? Because they can consume you, right? Um, and I always been that way, even, even like being in the world, I've always been that way. But I had talked to one of my leaders at the time who I trusted and who I trusted his voice. And I knew what God told me. I knew what the word God gave me, gave me about him. And then the Lord had told me to read the book of Daniel, okay, before I release the word. And I was doing that, okay. I said I still had the notes on that word and everything. And so, um, I told him, but it was like he was like diminishing the words that God had given me, given me But I knew I heard God, and I felt like, oh man, well, if he's saying that, you know, not that I'm hearing God wrong, but if I'm not getting his approval or he was not validating me, that means that, you know, I shouldn't release it. So I had this internal struggle, right, of needing invalid— of needing validation. And y'all, I didn't release the word. I had literally talked myself out of releasing the word, okay? And I regretted it so much. And I began to see on social media some of that same exact word be released to other people. And then also in 2022, I had went to Apostle Jennifer LeClaire's, um, uh, Elijah Company, and she was just teaching, and she shared the same exact word that God had given on me, he gave to her. Y'all, I was so upset with myself. And I mean, and I literally— I'm not gonna lie, for a good— for months, I would like beat myself up because I'm like, God, I'm sorry, I dropped the ball. You know, I didn't move forward with this word. Lord, I, I'm so sorry. And the Lord was like, it's okay, just repent. Now you know it's the area that you struggle in. Now I need to be intentional about making sure I heal in that area. I had to be intentional about making sure that, you know, I'm really pressing in and obeying God and doing what he's, what he's telling me to do. Because y'all, I'm telling you right now, I'm telling you right now, everybody is not going to agree with what you're saying or what you're doing. Even people, those who, even those who are close to you. This is why it's so important to hear God for yourself and have your own relationship with God and be confident in what God is saying. Because people, some folk mean harm, and some folk don't mean no harm, okay? I, I definitely dealt with that before, and it's not easy, but God will test you. He will definitely test you to see if you will obey him, even if nobody else agrees with you. Okay, so I've definitely dealt with that. Okay, and so since then, you know, I've been obedient. I try my best to do, you know, the things God's asking me to do. Um, I forgiven myself for it because that was a very heavy and important word. It really was. And so yeah, that wasn't a good feeling either, not at all. So needing validation, that's a big part of, um, knowing that you need healing. Um, unresolved trauma, that's a big one. I did a video about that on last year. Um, trauma affects us in so many different ways. It skews your vision. Um, it affects how you see other people, it affects how you see yourself, and that's what had happened to me. You know, I dealt with, you know, sexual abuse, physical abuse, emotional abuse as a child. And, um, now looking back, for sure, before I healed, I definitely dealt with needing validation heavily. I dealt with, um, anxiety for sure. I dealt with, um, the rejection part was a big thing for me, big thing for me with the rejection. So I really had to like go through like this journey and go through these different things, you guys, to get to the other side. Um, having a hard time, um, communicating— communication and boundaries. That was a big thing for me too, because when you deal with rejection, you don't heal from it. You unintentionally also become a people pleaser. You want to please people, um, because you don't want to be rejected by them. And so I dealt with some of that also in my friendships that I had before. And so God had to heal— I had— so y'all, my journey, people be looking at me, they be thinking like I just got here. I just didn't get here overnight, y'all. It's been a journey. It was not easy, but I'm so glad. I'm so glad that I surrendered to the process. And that's what God is asking Christian leaders, um, to do. Let me think. And even now, like, the Holy Spirit is reminding me to like Look, look at what's going on right now in the body of Christ. We have so many fallen leaders, and the Lord has warned us for that, of that too. If you have been following, you know, the Holy Spirit and listening to prophetic voices, I release that word along with so many other people. There will be a great fall, and it's happening right now before our eyes. And I know for a fact that they have fallen because they have failed to take out time to heal. They have failed to take out time to be intentional about surrendering their heart to God, okay? And it takes a level of vulnerability. It takes setting aside, setting aside your pride, setting aside your agenda and your ambition in order to be emotionally and mentally whole. Now, with that being said, that's— that doesn't mean that you're gonna be perfect, you're not gonna have anything, but are you taking care of it? Are you nurturing the thing that you're struggling in? Are you nurturing it to health? Are you surrounded with community and accountability? That is so important. And I'm also intentional about that accountability. I have accountability. First, I got the Lord because the Lord would shake me real quick. He's gentle at times. Sometimes he ain't gentle with me. I have my husband. I have my best friend. I have other leaders who hold me accountable. Because when you lead people, you are responsible for their spiritual well-being. You are. And so many, um, sheep are— the sheep are scattered. They already— they're already scattered. The harvest is here. And when I say harvest, you know, one part of that is the soul harvest. You know, I'm even seeing now there's like, you know, celebrities who are, you know, coming back to Christ, who are seeking God, who are tired of being empty, of feeling numb, right? As leaders, we have to be prepared to catch the sheep, right? If you're not emotionally and mentally well and healthy, How you gonna do that? You gonna burn yourself out, you know. I mean, I just see— I, y'all, everybody, I have seen and experienced so much when it comes to ministry and mental health, okay. So let me see here, look at my notes. Another thing I want to point out here as well is Inconsistent emotional reactions. Pay attention to how you're responding to conflict in situations mentally and emotionally. That matters too. Those are definitely, um, can be a little bit more subtle if you're not paying attention. You won't even notice that you're having these thoughts, negative thoughts about yourself, or the situation is consuming you. Okay. So I believe that's all I have for you guys. Let me shake my nose to make sure. If you have any questions, if you're still on, please feel free to put them in the chat. You know, I'll look in here. Uh, as we— I said earlier in the beginning of this live tonight, it's more like a just coming in to let you guys know, you know, what the plan is. Um, share with you all what I am working on, what to expect over the next few months. And that is content for Christian leaders, resources. I'm working on like showing through more books as well. They're almost all done. Let me wave at you guys up here again. Let me know where you are from if you want to in the comments. My husband was on from the backyard. Okay, okay, donkey. All right, that's all I have for tonight, and I'm just gonna say a quick prayer and I will be done. And so also before that, I'm— I went live tonight, which is Thursday, so in the daytime I'm working, okay? And I'm thinking about going live instead on Sundays instead, because yeah, after all week of running and doing this and work and family and taking care of myself, yeah, it caught up with me. So I might do on a Sunday evening instead of doing on a Thursday evening. Okay. All right. So Father, I just thank you for every single person who came on this live tonight, those who will come back and watch the replay. Um, Father, I thank you, uh, for what you're doing in the body of Christ. Even though things may look crazy, it may look hectic, uh, it may seem just unordinary and unnecessary, but Father, I remember your word that you have released, God, to us time and time again for us to prepare, to prepare for chaos, to prepare for the harvest. It's so much going on right now in the earth, God, but you're still putting a mandate on Christian leaders, the body of Christ, Lord God, um, to be a net, God, to be a safe haven, to be a safe place, Lord God, to be able to catch lost souls and to catch your sheep. And so, Father, I pray for every single Christian leader who is on the battlefield, whether they're on the forefront, whether they're in the background, no matter where they are, God, that you continue to give them strength. God, God, continue to remind them that they're fearfully and they are wonderfully made. Father, I speak life into them, into their hearts, into their minds, into their souls. Father, Father, order their steps. God, be a hedge of protection around them. Lord, I thank you, God, um, for what you're doing in this hour. God, I thank you, God, how you're resetting things, how you're putting things um, back in order the way they were destined to be. I thank you, God, for those who are emerging Christian leaders, God, those that you are calling, um, to, to lead, God, that you're passing the baton to, Lord. I pray, God, that they will walk in boldness and they'll be fearless, Lord God, they'll be courageous. In Christ's name I pray, amen, amen. So yes, you guys, so I pray for leaders all the time. That's like one of my assignments. I didn't go deep, deep, deep with the prayer, but if I would have kept on going, it would have been a wrap. I, I would have been gone. She would have been gone. But anyway, thank you again for getting on tonight, and I will see you guys, um, next time. Don't forget to put in the comment section, um, hashtag replay.
