Alpha and Omega Ministries with Sherry Lush

Welcome to the Month of Adar, 2026

Have you ever wanted to face all your battles and do it with JOY? Adar is the month for you.
The ultimate secret in Adar is to face your battles and know that you can find the strength to conquer the
inner Amalek—things like doubt, coldness, and cynicism. It is conquering the need to win every silly argument
and having joy that you can simply say, 'OK,' and truly be OK! That is true victory.

There are times when things just don't make sense to our rational, logical minds. When this is the case
(like in Purim), we trust that the Divine script is playing out perfectly. Now we don't have to react to our
horizontal circumstances negatively; we align our will with the will of the LORD—for peace, patience, and all
the fruit of the Spirit. This will bring the highest joy!

True joy is remembering that everything is orchestrated by our Creator. In the book of Esther, G‑d's name is
never mentioned, but He is there, working behind the scenes as Esther lays her life on the line—she had turned
her will over to the LORD. The decree of destruction in Adar was turned into a day of celebration. Our 'hidden'
challenges can also turn into our greatest blessings. Esther's did!
