Description

There’s a dangerous blend happening in Christian business circles today: Kingdom entrepreneurs are unknowingly mixing worldly manifestation techniques with biblical principles.

In this episode of The Estherpreneur Podcast, I confront the confusion head-on and expose the spiritual cost of striving in the name of success. We’re unpacking:

  • The stark difference between manifesting outcomes and receiving God’s promises
  • Why “energy alignment,” vision boards, and affirmations won’t work when the source is self, not God
  • How our obsession with control is often disguised as “strategy” and is actually spiritual pride in motion
  • The five key contrasts between manifestation and God’s process: from purpose to power, timeline to testimony

I also share how I made the shift—from performance-based striving to peace-filled stewardship—and how it radically transformed my business, my mindset, and my results.


If you’ve been exhausted by doing “everything right” but still feel stuck… this episode will disrupt your assumptions, confront your habits, and return your focus to the One who actually holds the outcome!


You’re not called to manifest your future. You’re called to manage God’s vision. Let’s get back to that.
