Hi, I'm Marelinke!
I founded Esther Ministries on 25 May, 2015, after being prompted by the Holy Spirit to start a ministry that brings healing to the body, soul and spirit - uncompromisingly God's way.
I studied at Hillsong College in Australia - among others - and recently spent 8 months serving in Jerusalem, Israel. Apart from being a prophetic writer and teaching prophet, I have worked as a pastor, Christian counsellor, worship leader, and pastoral natural health practitioner. Over the past 5 years, I have written numerous prophetic words that were released through Esther Ministries - my main platform. More recently, I have started writing and contributing to Spirit Fuel (Florida, USA), and have also been published by 31 Wife-In-Training Magazine (South Africa) and Gateway News (South Africa).
My passion is to help hurting women and girls find hope, healing, and freedom from life-controlling issues...body, soul and spirit. I also struggled with some of these issues during my teenage years, but through it all God has "strengthened my arms to bend a bow of bronze" and brought forth beauty from ashes. I believe that God has called me to use my story and experience to equip other young women with the skills necessary to live a victorious life.

"He gives us comfort in all our troubles. Then we can comfort other people who have the same troubles."
(2 Corinthians 1:4)
"By integrating natural health, pastoral counseling, creative arts tools, and prophetic ministry, I am able to take a holistic treatment approach to optimal health and wellbeing - God's way. My focus and special area of interest is on clinical natural medicine for mental health disorders, and the use of neuro-nutrient therapy for chemical imbalances in the brain. With the help of the Holy Spirit, I work to find and treat the spiritual, emotional, and physical roots of disease, rather than treating symptoms. I make use of natural supplements and functional foods, using natural alternatives to conventional pharmaceutical drugs.
I want to see women come back to a place of wholeness - body, soul, and spirit - able to live healed and free lives. It is because of this, and my passion for health (mental, emotional, physical, spiritual), that I furthered my studies in these specific fields. My heart is to see the young women of this generation arise, like Esther, to take up their positions and rise to the call with courage, beauty, and strength.
