“I will not allow myself to be distracted by a substitute!” ....... Amen! (🎤 drop)
I call them COUNTERFEITS!!
A whole word😭
AMEN!!
That onee !! PRAISE GOD 😁👐🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Amen 🙏
Their is so many broken and toxic woman in this world but this woman right here is what u call a mentally and emotionally healthy woman. Only God can put u on this kind of level.
Facts!
Some don't know they're broken.
LOL "Their is"??? Yikes!
@@lakearbys3326 😂😂😂 irks me too but the message is what matters I guess
@@BabyC51085 God stretches us when we need it for HIS glory!
Essence is literally dropping gems after gems. She is anointed and needs her own podcast, book or something.
Needs to be a preacher.
I don't know why I kept bypassing this particular episode, but it revealed itself in season. I have been so immensely blessed.
Exactly. People commented on how this episode blessed them but I just kept passing it until now. Gods timing is impeccable. This is just what I'm needing to hear/learn
Ditto.
Me too!!! 2yrs later I finally decided to tune in and its so timely!!! I just got married..eloped and we’ve had all these conversations and to hear her speak of what’s been discussed has been a game changer. Nothing But God!!’ Confirmation 🙌🏾
Same here.
My exact experience!!!!!!
She put it perfectly.. being single can sometimes make you feel so exposed. It’s such a blessing when a man can cover you.
OMG
Definitely felt that ! Especially if you don’t really care too much to be single !
I don’t want to be single, but l won’t settle. It took long enough, I know my worth and what l bring to the table . Strong Black Women have helped me find worth in me .
The right man
Thissssssssss
It is so refreshing to see an accomplished black woman give God all the Glory...this is soooo good
Praise God!
It's a blessing to see anyone praise and acknowledge the Lord nowadays. Since the enemy have a lot of people bound with hate and anger. Acting as if they are God themselves. It is sad really. That is why it's imperative that we pray for the lost souls all over the world. Including those in Hollywood.
@@ladennayoung2939 and me and those in the Church. Lord help me not focus on me and just people in general and more on YOU and YOUR purpose. Amen
Yes it is! This is so refreshing🙏🏾
Amen!!!
I love her spirit!! She makes you want to be a better person!!! ❤️❤️❤️
She REALLY DOES!!! Truly So! Essence Atkins Is Absolutely AMAZING!!!
Essence is a great example of God having representation in the entertainment industry most people think that the people that are being used by God are those in a church setting or, a pastor, or evangelist, or a preacher of some sort but God is placing his people in unexpected areas where his love is needed the most!!!!!
Essence needs her own podcast. I would definitely subscribe. God is truly using her.
Amen 🙏
I was thinking the same thing.
True!
Yes, I would also subscribe
@@sherrylynn3304 aaaaaa!aaa
If you are viewing this video, know that it is not by coincidence. You were meant to see, hear and experience this anointing.
As a strong believer in God and Jesus, this touched me in so many areas. My tears started when Essence spoke of the Holy Spirit prompting her to empty her guest house, then I shouted hallelujah when she spoke on being celibate and gaining that clarity of which most ppl don't understand.... because I too have experienced it (I've been celibate for 7 years). Even my visions are clearer and more vivid.
I can go on and on because we've experienced similar happenings, however, I'm going to say this...
Although I've been shacking with DFW since mid 2020😊, this video totally blessed me tonight. Essence dropped a lot of nuggets and I AM blessed to have been anointed by her spirit twice this week. 🙌🏽 Praises to God.
When you follow God's instruction, the blessings will flow.😊🙌🏽
Stop shackin and subscribe sis!!!! You won’t regret it! Lol 😆
yeesss thank you for saying that
Amen I am claiming and receiving this blessing with you and I’m in covenant with DFW 😍😂
Please get it right before Jesus returns. 🙏❤
Amen! There is blessings awaiting you in being obedient
She preached. She prophesyed. She blessed our souls. Thank you, Essence!! God bless you!!
Hands down the best interview I have ever seen on this page. Marriage God’s way is for purpose, not just simply pleasure. Having someone in your corner that has the missing pieces to your puzzle of purpose and vice versa.
Bingo! God's puzzle! THE WORLD!
Yes! God’s way or no way is the way to go!🤗
“I waited for you.... I was intentional in waiting for you”. So powerful!!!!!!!Thank you Essence for this.... this is giving my waiting such power. This gives me confirmation that there is purpose in my wait. I have clarity through the Holy Spirit to recognize distractions. No substitutes welcome!
I cried at that exact moment.
Essence is speaking my language. Her expression is exactly how I feel Holy Spirit and all.
Yassssss! Me too. I love her.
This is my favorite thus far! Essence was speaking my heart. This encouraged me so much after someone telling me just this week that I need to find a man only just for sex. But I know who I am in Christ Jesus and I will continue to wait on my Kingdom husband.
Essence is soo deep! Simply luv 💖 her!
So good!!! 💎💎💎
Yessss
This was so good and encouraging. I knew her as a beautiful actress, didn't know she was a fire filled, anointed woman of God. Everything she said ministered. She definitely has a calling on her life. Bloom where you're planted, yall. We all have a responsibility to shine the light of Christ everywhere we find ourselves.
I'm watching this again sis! Thank you for pouring into a 59 -year -old, single, never been married black woman. This episode endorses my relationship with Christ and I have zero regrets.
Amen
"How I survived the Pandemic."
"Obedience, Getting into the Word and Submitting."
🙏🙏❤️🙏
I love the way he allows her to finish a complete thought without interrupting.
excellent interviewer and host!
Excellent future husband
That shows that he values the person talking
GIRLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL..... WHEN YOUR DISCERNMENT IS ON POINT!!!!!!!!!!! IT MAKES IT SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HARD FOR ANYONE TO GET PAST YOU... I felt that!!!
I just gained a new respect for Essence... People don't understand the importance of Obedience with God, but to be obedient you MUST be able to hear Him, you MUST know when He speak or when He shows up, you HAVE to know His voice. This BLESSED my whole spirit. Thank you Essence for your obedience and transparenc and love for HIM.
She is so articulate! It is a joy to listen to her speak!
There is nooo way Essence is going on 50!!!! WOW👀 that is unbelievable. She looks much younger. She is blessed!
It make sense because I've been seeing her on TV since I was a child.
When Essence said, "I'm CULTIVATING JOY." I felt that! I literally do this daily. I focus on being solid across the board and locking in on what truly brings me JOY!
Man she literally articulated exactly how I feel about being with someone but the downside to not being in commitment
SERIOUSLY!!!
This is why she’s bomb. She is literally sitting at Gods feet 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
wow!! yes she is !!
She clearly knows her worth and value! If the vast majority would understand that concept....
Awesome video! ❤ So uplifting!!
Yes, I agree she has been sitting with God. The anointing she carries is pure 🔥 🔥and breaks ⛓ chains. As I was watching this a demonic pattern of thinking broke off of me. Praise God!!!!
I need your help to get through my marriagec
She is on a entire different level, and I thought she was just a beautiful actress but WOW ESSENCE this was wonderful and made me reevaluate my my thoughts about myself
We're all special, and that's what makes us all not, because we all are!! She articulated that so beautifully! Her words are quick and powerful! She is an anointed vessel of the Most High God. I pray her ministry continues to heal those who hear what the spirit is saying through her. What a mighty woman of God.💕🫶🏾🔥
Needed this! Yes you just set me free confirmation! Giving myself away to someone who has not promised me anything! And I'm sitting here hurting my own feelings 🙃
As a single woman, having gone through the pandemic single, it was sometimes hard to still desire marriage out loud 😭😭😭😭I'm soooo blessed and wrecked by what Essence is sharing 💛
You are speaking my language.
Yes family! Use this time to spend time with God as His bride and He will groom you on how to be someone else's bride ❤️
Wow! I’m speechless! Knew her as an actress, but didn’t know much about Her as a woman and a woman of God at that. Her ability to articulate in general and to do so of the gospel and and fully be transparent and herself is such a beautiful thing to watch. Many blessings to her ❤️
Ditto. Knew her as an actress didn't know she was a fire filled woman of God. This was a good listen.
Essence is a joy to behold. This session blessed me so much. She is graceful, humbled, relatable, and she has a beautiful personality🙏🏽💯👏🏽
I'm 27 minutes into this episode and she has articulated everything I've been trying to put words to.🙌🙌
Safe space..... but not a perfect space....that is beautiful.
19:06. Essence in Episode 401 said she knew..RIGHT HERE.....THAT LATERAS liked her more than a friend❤️
She should call her ministry R.E.V.E.L.A.T.I.O.N because that is what she is and that is what she has delivered 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
FACTZ
My God!!! Was thinking the same thing about her having a ministry!
?
B.4
Facts. This was so deep. She has a gift for sure. 💗
The anointing on Essence’s life is ILLUMINATING. I’m so very blessed to be a recipient of His favor through her walk. Thank you for your service to Him. #JoyfullySurrendered 🙌🏾😭
Essence has spoken to me in a way that only God knows what I needed to hear. Thank you for allowing the Holy Ghost to speak truth.
“I want the promises of God to bless our relationship.” - 👏🏾👏🏾 Enough said.
I truly appreciate Essence's vulnerability. She is not a day older than 28 years old!! I can't wait to see the wonderful man the Lord has for her. Exquisite spirit she has.
Great interview once again.👌🏾❤👌🏾❗
I met Essence last year on zoom when we invited her to speak to a group of our students at Chicago Virtual Charter School. But, this Essence, on this podcast right here, spoke to the RECESSES of my soul! I think I've found my new soul sister in the wait! I appreciate the realness of the journey of the wait. She gave words to my journey of waiting, the heightened sensitivity, the heightened discernment, and lastly, the POTENCY!!!! My future husband will get the FULL 10 years of my potency in Jesus name, Amen!!!😆
Essence, beautiful spirit shining through her God fearing words of wisdom.
Lord God continue to bless the mind, heart, spirit, and soul of Essence Atkins. She out here doing that KINGDOM work putting up numbers!
"I was intentional because I waited for you." I won't allow myself to be distracted by anything less than my purpose driven covenant partnership...🔥🔥🔥🙏🙏🙏
Omg I have made the decision to wait until marriage, my friends talked about and made jokes about me but I have already in the past given myself to someone that God didn't create me for. Dear future hubby I'm sorry for not waiting on you like I should have but I won't make that mistake again. This is confirmation, I felt so alone on this journey, thank you for this, im almost in tears. 🙌🏽🙌🏽
Mylee'sMom I know just what you are talking about, that's my story too. God will give us the desires of our hearts, be encourage my sister.
Thats why we don’t need to share everything with our girlfriends. Somethings are just sacred and just for us and our partners.
Glory to God! You are certainly NOT alone on this journey of abstaining until your God Ordained Marriage manifests. In addition to God being by your side the whole way, there are a sea of us out here, waiting, trust and believing that God’s word will never return void as it is written. Those who make fun of your obedience to what was commanded by the Lord can only report from the level in which they live - the carnal world. We are in a war against culture and WE have been chosen to manifest as the tangible evidence of God’s word. I pray your continued strength. Blessings to you 🙏🏾♥️
Stay focused on Him. I know what it’s like to wait and see others not waiting getting what you want. However, in the end I’m the only one out of my closest friends who has a husband who prays with and for her.
Thank you Jesus
The womb isn’t just about where I give birth to babies, the womb is about where I give birth to purpose!👏🏾👏🏾
Whoa !
I’m divorcing my husband during the pandemic, It’s really been life altering! COVID-19 saved my life and restored my mind and spirit. Wow words can’t describe the joy I have everyday. Ive been so unhappy for so long and was not even aware! Thank you EA for your transparency.
I pray the Lord heals your heart.
So many say I'm waiting on God but God says, "I'm waiting on you!"
Great episode, very inspiring!
Love that!
@Tonya E Thank you and may God's favor continue to flow in your life Queen 👑❤️
@Tonya E 💖
Amen. My thoughts exactly
Its really true. Once I finally stopped playing games and decided to really work on myself, and get close to God it was like the flood gates opened up. It was almost immediate. I swear God was waiting on me to decide.
As she delights herself in the Lord God, may HE give her the desires of her heart ❤️..... I’m thankful to see this side of her .... Amen ... SET FREE
I loved this. She knows her worth and any woman is worth the wait. The woman just has to realize her own power. A man covering you, a man who will pray with you and love you through thick and then, it’s so hard to find and so many women settle. This has definitely taught me and opened my eyes. Thank you both. Simply amazing.
She killed this! As a over 50 successful woman…these words resonated hugely!
She looks great
She made me cry when she said the new name of her school. Bless them who are all involved with her and her new school . Just beautiful.
Essence is glowing in her purpose which is why she was able to flow so well with the topic of the podcast. Quarantine opened her mind to new heights and I can tell she was excited to share her walk with God, and the many emotions that comes with being a believer in a world full of turmoil. No pressure, but I think she should be brought back - it’s apparent she spoke to everyone in these comments. Good job (again) Laterras- and the wifey letter at the end is amazing.
I swear every episode is a therapy session for me! Thank you Jesus for reaching your daughter through this podcast 🙌🏾
Essence is a breath of fresh air. Love her realness, transparency & the gems she is dropping... This has to be one of my fave episodes... Love this❤
"Until I'm claimed, I'm single."
RIP
Oh man.... This was a whole sermon, and I have to rekindle my relationship with Christ. Right now.
Do it then! He’s waiting for you!
"do not allow to be distracted by a substitute!!!!" hands down true. For a few years i was waiting while being distracting myself with a substitute until God reached out and popped my ears to hear what this person was saying cause they had been telling me about what and who they were about but because i was hearing and not listening. it took 5 years for my ears to pop open. i feel like i wasted 5 years but this is not watsted time God was indeed patient to allow me to come to realisation i needed to be out of this situation as there was no commitment oh gosh. so true Essence, this podcast was two years ago but still makes. sense.
Wheewwww 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽. This is literally the BEST podcast I ever listen to.. I been skipping over this video for awhile now, and finally The Holy Spirit led me to watch it today. I share so much in common with Essence, she helped me free myself from myself. She spoke EVERYTHING I’m currently working on. I LOVE IT💕. Very powerful & fulfilling
You are so right about your statement this podcast is changing lives!
I saw a clip of this video on Instagram and I just HAD TO search for it on UA-cam. This is no coincidence God wanted me to listen to this! The anointing in this video is so profound
Thank you. God is good
same....
You are preaching !!!!!!!
It's in her name....Essence.
She gave 45 minutes of truth.
Exactly 💯
I think you had found your future wifey!!! He clearly adores ALL of Essence! Thank you both for your transparency and simply allowing God to use you both. Even as a married women there were so many gems that I have taken away from this episode. Thank you
This was such a phenomenal podcast with Essence. Please have her on again. I learned so much.
Only a few min in but the testimony about the Rison Village and the 3 points on how she survived the pandemic blessed me SO much!!! I MUST obey... NOW! Lord help me not delay!
Amen
Essence is a BEAUTIFUL Spirit. Im going to listen to this a few more times. I Love her.
YEEEEES, you DEFINITELY motivate me, Essence 💚💚💚
OMG! Essence is preaching a whole sermon! I have always loved her as an actress but I love her even more now. Thank you Lateras for starting Season Three with a BIG BANG!❤
You are so welcome!
She literally did! I could hear "organ cues" throughout her speech 🤦🏾♀️
So based on the comments Lateras I think we need a PART 11 with Essence.❤❤😍
I'm not shacking up. I made a commitment and subscribed only after listening to one episode. I only discovered you randomly through a pop up after listening to a message from TD Jakes. I started my journey looking at episodes, saw Essence and just considered listening to it. This podcast I absolutely love. I'm so happy I found it or more like it found me. Inspiring messages, amazing content. I can't stop listening as I'm now binge watching. I just wanted to say thank you. Before learning of your podcast I would write letters to my future husband, wrote my vows and would think to myself I've absolutely gone crazy. I just said I'm manifesting those things which weren't as they were. When I saw you doing it I was like ok I'm not totally crazy because you're doing it to. Lol. I've discovered that's how believers roll. It's the substance of what we hope for. I believe in you and you're amazing. Keep doing what you do. It has blessed me. I look forward to every episode. This episode, I have no words. God bless you dear brother.
Whew.... When I say she sounds PERFECT for LATERRAS!!!! My God!!!! I have chills!
Essence is *already* living in her ministry. Such a blessing, honest, human,... God bless
Essence is a friend I wish I had! I just love her spirit! Such a beautiful person!
@Danielle Nicole me too!! I feel like she “gets me” 🥰
Essence was on FIRE she spoke from her heart and let the Spirit of God use her to heal women like myself who are struggling and have been broken in toxic relationship s Thank you Essence for your kind wise wonderful words Trust I didn't let a crumb hit the floor every word has been received and will be implemented in my life decisions going forward THANK YOU I! ❤️
I never knew Essence was this anointed. She's putting into words how I think about living as a single woman waiting and praying for in the mate has for me. She definitely needs to to a podcast for Christian single women.
Who is this. Oh my goodness, I am so blessed by this because I am a woman of God who was married for 13 years, divorced for 10. I have been celibate for over 10 years because of my Fear of God, my Love for God and the respect for marriage. In addition, I have a 16 year old son and I want to show him the purity of waiting and the respect I have for myself as a woman. I have been in terrible relationships where I was told no one will wait for me and that is a lie. I am waiting because I honor God and have too much respect. Way to go Essence, bless you woman of God for your honesty.
Doing it Gods way. Yessss, I publicly bless the Father for this message,. Yup, I serve him.
Who is she?? She’s a gifted performer and has been on tv for a long time. She’s got killer calves too! 🦵🏽🦵🏽
You have a powerful testimony as well and kudos for being a good example for your son! God bless you and your journey of obedience!
Hello, and God Bless you woman of God, I'm in a similar situation. But I refuse to settle, my Pastor preaches this all the time; but as women we still dont listen and end up in the horrible relationships. I've been celibant for over 10 years also and I'm content with where God has me right now. I'm waiting on his best. May God continue to Bless you and your son. Wait on God!!!🙌🙏
@@pampeeleshelton3401 Amen sis. The bible says in Isaiah 54 that our 'Maker' 'Creator' is our husband. I am very content at this moment and will continue until God sees fit to send me my companion. Praise Him for your testimony. I was told by someone that a man will never agree with my beliefs, he ain't God and he was dismissed before a relationship ever got off the ground. God created everything; do you actually think HE will not send someone tailor made for you. Look at what happened to Isaac in the bible, Abraham's senior servant was tasked to find the right woman for Isaac, Genesis 24. Blessings to you and your family sis.
Her message is powerful. She definitely needs to be in ministry. I know anointing when I see and hear it. This is one of my favorite podcast episodes now.
I think she is a pastor or something on that order. She married gabrielle and her husband
Oh my goodness. Tears are streaming down my face as I feel a freshness in my spirit. Cultivating joy, the aroma of Christ, service...I realized that I've been rebuilding walls and calling them boundaries. Lord, I pray for a healing of my spirit and a renewing of joy. A refreshing over me and those who need it. Thank you for this episode. It's definitely timely and appreciated 🙏🏽
This woman just drops so many gems. As a woman about 10 years her junior I’m learning so much from her about discipline and purpose.
Speechless 🤭I just don’t have words to express how much this episode has blessed me. The evolution from season one to three is like fine wine, it keeps getting better and better. Thank you Lord for using these vessels to bless your people.
I can't even get through this entire episode because I am rewinding, writing down gems in my journal, pausing to reflect on what she just said...Essence!! You came to bless and set somebody free today!!!!!
and she is me!!
Rewinded like 3-4x
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Thank you for the the sermon 68 yrs old still praying, waiting and believing 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾💕
God’s light shines through her and I’m sooo glad that someone shared this with me. Revelation, knowledge, perspective, honest real…all of that. Thank you.
I had the chills the whole time she told the testimony of the school starting. Burst out in tears about her Pastor praying in her guest house before the starting of the school. God is so amazing!
Yes…so so AWESOME!!! The absolute AWESOMENESS OF GOD!!!
So did I!! Omg
GOD truly is 😁! PRAISE GOD 😁👐🏽🙌🏾!
This is my kind of Christian entertainer. She will actually lead you to look for Christ with her life not just with her mouth. Excellent Essence👌🏾👏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾❤❤
I listened to this episode July 3, 2023. I recommitted my self to my ‘Journey to Me’ and this episode has reinforced so many messages that I have been receiving since my recommitment. Thank you all
Essence said all the things I feel as a single, never marrried woman. I could it have said it better myself. Ugghh this blessed me SO much. Thank you for having her on, Laterras. Thank you Holy Spirit for speaking.
So full of wisdom. There’s a level of wisdom that comes with having a personal relationship with God. ❤️Her
ughhh ma'am you are fooling NO ONE 🙄🗣️ YOU ARE A PREACHER!!!! 😂
So very eloquent 👏👏
I told her!
I agree. First time I heard her I said so. Ministry is in her.
She is doing it. No need for a pulpit. This reaches much further!
This was an amazing show! New respect for Essence! She dropped so much wisdom!
Man the ending was beautiful. God bless you Essence. You live up to your name 🙌🏽🙏🏽💕
In Nigeria we say this lady “finish work” Praise God.
She said “we are all special, and that’s what makes us (not) cause WE ALL ARE!” That resonated with me! Thank you for this beautiful message!!🙏🏾💕🙏🏾
Love that!
Laterrias is falling in love as he listens to Essence.....all in his eyes ;)
I’m currently shifting and I felt my soul and spirit shift on a higher level listening to this. Thank You for adding to my awakening 💜
Amen!
Why did Essence just give me a whole sermon! Yes! Ministry is in your footpath. I am so full just listening to you. Follow his still small voice to guide you! I will listen to you preach any day! Amen!
Thank you for listening. Please subscribe, if you haven't already.
I LOVE her HONESTY about her life experience
Laterras you are one of the most brave,courageous,authentic, intentional and vulnerable man I have ever knew, God is using your podcast to break generational curses. What you did on this podcast with Essence, choosing to show it, even when the out come wasn't what you had hope for, is so brutally honest and courageous. Thank you for showing us how to better handle and accept rejection. 🙏🏾
Essence blessed me so much! As a 56 year divorced lady I am thankful I stumbled upon this podcast. Thank you
It great
Amen! Girl, I went through that same journey talking to God about holiness when I turned 40. Still single and no Kids. I became weary in my faith. I stepped out and stepped back in. Thank God for Grace!
I'm with you sis... I'm also 40, single with no kids. It can be challenging sometimes...I definitely understood what she said about the pandemic exposing her desire to be covered in a covenant relationship. I believe it will all be worth it in the end 🙏🏾
She needs to return on a HUBBY episode. Blessed me so, and made me weep & shout!
This episode had me in tears. Truly spirit led.
Wow...Whew!!! Powerful! Can we say "Everything, Everything" Essence hit my spirit with such words of wisdom and her conviction!She is a living testimony to help heal others!! I see why you shot your shot Laterras! My God!! The Faithfulness to your future partner starts with obedience to God!!
Pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeee bring this lovely lady back for another podcast, she's all I want to listen to. God bless her.
This was AMAZING!!! Essence spoke from a FREE, LIBERATED, & SPIRITUAL place!! Season 3 is off to a GREAT START!
I’ve watched this episode about 15 times and each time something new is revealed to me. This woman is virtuous, ethereal, feminine, intelligent…Whew!! We love to see it.
I’m sitting listening to this and I’m like “ girl you betta gone ahead” 💯💯💯 I just love being educated and talking about GOD and most importantly watching stuff like this that’s so empowering . Okay let me finish watching this
