Mike and Teresa Escalante

Welcome to our website. Teresa and I thank you for visiting us.  We hope you are blessed and encouraged by our posts and updates. This year is incredible and it is only the beginning! We look forward to God directing our steps.

Here’s a thought, I realize with each passing day is a day closer to what I believe God has destined for us as a family and the burden we share for ministry. Teresa and I have been discussing our direction with the blog and the expectations we desire as a result.  This helped us see where we can improve not only in serving the Lord but also each other as husband and wife.  As we prayed and talked, and prayed again we believe the Lord has given our underwriting message for this year and Escalanteministries.com

Our focus for this year started early in December.  I was looking at my life in all areas evaluating its present state.  I had my journal with me for many weeks hoping to get something from God.  Then, on my day off I was praying and this time being intentional in my prayer about ministry and the blog.

Later that day I felt the Holy Spirit impress on my heart the words: Sowing, growing, harvest.  I don’t want to be cryptic or spooky. There was not a beam of light shining or a dove flying above me.  I felt the Lord gave me the impression that it is time this year to sow.

To add value. To bloom where I am planted.  To give more, to pray more and to fast (yikes).  This year is a year for me to be stretched in all areas. Physically, spiritually and emotionally as a Dad, Son, and Husband.  I am convinced that the Lord wants this year to be the best year yet. this takes leaving the safe and familiar. It takes time. It takes sowing.

Thank you reading.  Let us know how we can pray for you by leaving a comment.
