Prophetess Esther Perry

Prophetess /First Lady 

Though raised in a Christian home I found myself lusting after the things of the world. I felt that I was missing something or that I was robbed of my teenage years. That led me to try and make up for lost time. I began to club and party and defy all of the things that I knew were pleasing to God. Unfortunately, it turned out the only thing I was missing was the opportunity to follow the calling that was clearly on my life. I chose to put what I knew aside and began to give Satan and the world my time. Through my partying and illicit lifestyle I ended up having a son at the age of twenty years old, but that did not stop the partying. I continued to date, and party and club and continue in a downward spiral.

​

But blessed be the name of the Lord, I was trained up in the way I should go, my parents taught us the word of God. I had accepted the Lord for myself at the age of twelve.  I realized that I was the one who strayed away from what I was taught. Thank God he is a God of second chances. By the age of 28 I had, had enough of the world, enough of partying, and serving the world. I heard from the Lord and decided to rededicate my life, it was not long after that I was ordained as an Evangelist by my childhood Pastor, Sewlyn Scott of Miami Fl. As the Lord would have it, as I began to delight myself in the Lord, he gave me the desires of my heart. I met Dwayne Perry and we got married. Upon marriage, my son and I relocated to Riverview Fl where we currently reside. Dwayne and I served at From the Heart/Rivers Of Life Ministries where we were later ordained as Ministers. After serving at that church for seven years, Dwayne heard from the Lord, as he was instructed to head our own ministry. Though shaky and unsure, I followed my husbands call and stepped out on faith and began True Sanctuary of Praise. We have been in Ministry now for five years and the Lord has truly blessed us. Thank God for keeping me, he did not allow the world and wilds of the devil to consume me, he had work for me to do. I now accept the calling and the charge on my life, I will let my light so shine with the power of Holy Spirit, allow my gifts to make room for me and be a fishermen of men.
