I humbly want to take this opportunity to say thanks to Lynn and her team for having me on this show,and to all of you from this channel who have come to my channel after watching this and showered me with love and support, I really appreciate and I say God bless you all. I'm so happy that so many have been inspired by this part of my story,and I'm also refreshed by your love on the comment section right here. May God answer your prayers and turn your pain to gain, may he fight your battles for you and give you victory .
Don't know if she'll see this but I also cry every time I remember my dad,he passed on years back and I have never recovered,I also can't bring myself to call any man of God (pastor )daddy I just can't, that's a special name for my dad only..I thought I was alone in this, glad to see someone who has the same mentality like mine.
I'll always remember a day I was seated at st. Andrew's restaurant around 2013, so overwhelmed because I was going through autism journey with my son. Esther wahome came and sat at a table next to me. I went and said high, we started a conversation and I talked to her about my son not knowing she had a son with autism like mine. Esther really encouraged me at a time I really needed someone to talk to who would understand my journey. To me you were God sent on that particular day. You are a wonderful person, you never spoke to me at a point of fame. You spoke to me as a fellow woman. My son is now 13 still nonverbal, I'm still hopeful
Lynn thanks for the wonderful work. Why don’t you bring a couple of parents with these kinds of kids especially those with severe autism, so that we can create awareness and understand what caregivers go through and we as a society we need to change our mindset. Sio laana ni Baraka. I have a cousin with a severely autistic daughter. Thanks Esther wahome too for your wonderful interview. It was refreshing
"Do not sacrifice your life on the altar of marriage because God did not create you as a wife, God created you as a woman so be the woman,become a wife and become a good wife but don't sacrifice your life on the altar of marriage it is not Godly it is not right. Even any good husband will tell you that and push you to become the woman he sees in you even that which you don't see yourself." I love this!!
Having a non verbal autistic 9yr old boy ,today I dreamt we were having a conversation and then when I woke up ,I opened TH-cam and then I saw this as the first thing. I believe God wanted me to hear this and today I tap into this blessing and will still hold unto faith that one day we are going to have this conversation..This too shall be our testimony. God has a purpose for me to hear this..
I was in Pangani Girls, class of 1992, I remember Esther was our C.U chairlady. What a blessing you are till today Esther Wahome! Gid bless you and your ministry.
My hubby is a Muslim but one day he surprised me with Kuna dawa CD and he always said how beautiful she is we still love you Esther and we celebrate you
Ala! Ladies, I need your help here about Muslims. Am a single mom of three, I have suffered broken relationships many times since the time I got my first born which leaves me so broken. In all the cases, it's the men who leave the relationship. So early last year, I got hooked up to a Muslim in a way up to now av been questioning, coz me being a christian I have all along known that its wrong to have a relationship with a Muslim, since he's a non believer. Now the issue is, I have tried breaking free from this relationship because of my belief about three times, but I have not succeeded. Unlike my previous relationships, this man fears to loose me. Please advise.
Lynn the people you are interviewing on your show of late shows how much respect and credibility you have in the journalism space. People are trusting you to bring their stories exactly as they have told them. Some of these people hardly ever do interviews and when they do they are choosy about who does them because people just can't be trusted. It also shows the trust that God has in you to do the work that you are intended to do. See how Esther has spoken about her's and those if her generation's longevity in the industry being because they are doing it for the calling? That will be your testimony 3 decades from now. If ever you feel like giving up, always remember that the Grace of God is and will keep covering you. Upwards and onwards Lynn.
The part of the baby with Autism got me in tears. I am raising my daughter who came as a preemie,had convulsions for years and later diagnosed with AUTISM. It's been 6 years that feels like hell. Hospitals have become our homes. Have lost myself in the journey, have delt with depression. But am trying to get myself back. Please, it's not an easy journey... You lose even friends and you're left with no choice but to be strong for your child. Please be kind to parents raising babies that are abled differently, it's overwhelming. God bless LNN, God bless you all.
Take heart my dear, autism has affected many children, i too was informed that my child has autism but imagine i took it lighty and i talked to God that in everything His Glory reigns. Sooner than later you will have testimony
My dear may God give you Grace and favour beyond ,I stayed in a plot and a certain neighbour told everyone I was a witch ,she used to call my son kiwete and my son used to stay indoors and couldn't go out to play because of stigma the lady told pple that my son was in that state because I was a witch so pple should avoid me like plague ,my biological sister hated me and my son and trained her kids to hate my son I had to shift and never gone back to that place may God give us wisdom especially women😢😢
All in God's hands..hugs mama..this journey is one that needs Grace and a lot of love. Mine is still doing well since he's now independent he does everything by himself ...he prepares breakfast for the family..believe in God and he shall lessen your burden.,
Hugs mama@ Esther wahome. I can relate with you on the diagnosis of your child.I was so shocked when the Dr mentioned it to me for my son at 2yrs.He is 4and half now.The many sleepless nights, the meltdowns and tantrums, the picky eating,,,the hyperactivity ,mind you it was hard to communicate with him but God has been good to him we haveseen his faithfulness.with early intervention a child learns at his/her own pace. I thank God for His mercies that has carried us through each day at time. Lots of hugs
How I wish the young gospel artists would humble themselves, sit and listen to the great wisdom oozing from this legend, this phenom, the one and only ESTHER WAHOME!!!!! LIFE IS SPIRITUAL.
God is faithful..Wooiiii.......... Esther I need to meet you just for mentorship as a young mother coz your story about your 2nd born and 3rd born is exactly like mine . I Went to Kise last year and got informed that my 3 year old was Autistic and I was then pregnant with the 3rd child....Am just in tears as I Identify with you...... My son is now 4 years,speech not yet and have not started the Therapy yet due to financial challenges and I have a 2 months old to take care of.......so overwhelming and people don't understand what others go through.
This was an interview and a half. A confirmation that those who look to God are radiant and their faces will never be covered with shame (Psalms 34) . I was encouraged, challenged, inspired and edified. I know I'll be back to watch again because for such interviews,one is never enough❤❤❤
After high school, me and one of my friends used to visit a certain teacher in her house to watch TV since we had none at the time..I particularly remember the teacher loved playing Esther's songs (CDs) and I would long for the day I'd get my own house and TV.. Today, 20 years later I get to watch Esther's story in my house (though rented) and on my TV.. I'm so encouraged, inspired and motivated in my walk of faith. Much more blessings to you dear Esther.. you're truly a role model to us women and a great soldier of Christ. Thank you Lynn🙏
Esther is one of the remnants!!Marriages are different but values are the same...May God continue to bless her. Lynn rebuilding series is powerful with so much impact!!
The part i have liked most is that part how he struggled with his autistic son until he gained speech. That is God. Lynn you should have a segment of parents parenting children who are abled differently. This people are forgotten in the society and judged harshly. Give them platform to voice their journey and i know they can be an encouragement to one another. I have a friend who has two autistic boys , i can tell is overwhelming. It is not an easy journey. Judy i wish you listen to Esther wahome testimony and i know it will give you hope. And to all parents with children who are abled differently I salute you. Never give up.
I am a kindergarten teacher, It is a call for me to be with these children, helping shape their destinies. I have been undergoing some challenges ,my take today,I am a system and so many are relaying on me being strong hence I won't fold but will hold on strong and keep fighting 🙏💪. Thank you Lynn for having a phenomenal woman Esther share her testimony be blessed.
Out of all the stories I have watched on this channel this is one I have related with the most . My husband and I were blessed with a neurodivergent child and through this journey we have grown and stuck together . The storm will either make you or break you but with God at the center of it all you will overcome . We thank God for the little progress and milestones achived and we are a little team that refuses to give up and just go all out for our boy . It’s a ministry we have been chosen for in this life and we accept it and surrender it all to His feet as you said Esther . Thank you so much Lynn and Esther for sharing this and yes our boy is also very gifted with a fantastic memory . We are grateful 🙏🏾
Hi Esther. Still that great beautiful and intelligent girl that i taught many years ago and I am proud of you. Your high school teacher here- please get in touch.
About the autism this is so my boy he's 16 years now & spoke at 6 years, today am happy & i give God all the Glory 💯 I know God is still on the throne and He's held me in His hand...more to come for His Glory 🙏
Those who are here in 2080, I want you to know that in March 2024 we hit 1M followers and we camped here waiting for Lynn Ngugi's work and that also, she was the best of our time. Much love from Toronto Lynn gaitû. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
So it's 2080 after we celebrated Easter and I still listen to Esther Wahome songs Kuna Dawa because when my Dad who used to drive G -Touring had Esther Wahome CD like Shakaina glory..
That was superb Lynn. Esther Wahome is a beacon of hope. I named my daughter Shekinah and she resonated with that song in 2003/2004. Every time she heard the song, she would become excited and radiant though she couldn't get the words. Esther has touched on a very important topic. Hurt from church. Brethrens have to guard their hearts above everything else for out of the heart comes issues of life. Otherwise, the church can cause irreparable damage to christians who peg their hope there. Our focus should be God and Him only. God bless Lynn and Esther.
That part of her son has moved me into tears,,, and she has told me how to pray and leave it at Jesus feet,,, this has encouraged to b strong to My son who has elliptic,, and I thank God that one day he will be a great son,, thanks Lynn and Esther for this interview,,,am a domestic worker and a single mum of 3,, and these are the stories which keeps me going,,🙏🙏🙏🙏
Its a story of victory indeed🙏 my son got convulsions at 3yrs went to icu for 18days and lost his speech from then,right now he's 5.6yrs and he's regaining his speech slowly,he says mum,my brothers name,etc ,he's teacher also confirmed that he's doing well in school 🙏 did i also say he's been convulsion free for an year plus 🙏 after listening to this testimony i know God will walk with my son and everything will be okay 🙏❤ Sending love and hugs to all parents with special Needs❤
Esther's interview has given me a hope,i have cried enough,i have prayed enough,i have visited many hospitals,i have taken my son to many therapy even far away...i will let God do his part...AMEN
People who grow up with an evidently loving father always succeed. It is inevitable. Mothers can love but a father’s love is incomparable. It is a blessing that catapults. I wish all men understood this and will change the narrative
Today I asked God to speak to me about blessings from fathers, especially from fathers who were never there for their kids. It didnt make sense to me. Until I swithched this channel on and heard Esther... I have my answer. Thank you, God. Thank you Esther.
Esther, you are still as beautiful and blessed as ever. On what people were taking about you, take heart because other people's invalidation doesn't define you. Me and my family have been blessed with your music from whence you started evangelism through music. Secondly, Esther, no matter how good you can be in pleasing people including sacrificing yourself for others including relatives to be happy, not all do appreciate. In Counseling we are told, take care of your life first before you think of caring of other people out there. Marriage works even for those that are in the celebrity lane. Esther and Kassanga are a living example. The only problem in today's "celebrity" world is that after making few coins, they feel on top of the world and go wild in matters pride, validation and changing partners. The yesteryear gospel artist of Esther and Kassangas generation were doing singing as a calling and for God not money or views. Earnings never influenced their marriage negatively instead it strengthened them. Look at how beautiful and proud this awesome Esther is. She is humble to the core. Today, gospel is about views, show-off and competition on who is making more millions than the other. I wish, by Lynn bringing such incredible legendary guests that inspire positively, our young couples are listening impactively so that their life can make meaning. Being faithful to your spouse is God's purpose in your marriage. Too much money or big cars do not define success in your marriage but humility, respect and being humble to your cause can be an accomplishment. Esther, go out there and preach to the world without caring whether they receive it negatively or positively. One's change is a personal choice. Esther, God's grace is sufficient for you and your family. I celebrate your husband 100%.Great man of God that allowed you to travel to nations to preach the gospel of Christ through music. Few men can do that.
Esther Wahome bolongs to the GOLDEN ERA of Kenyans gospel industry. When gospel music took over all the airwaves in Kenya...... And she still haven't lost her incredible voice.God bless her 🙏
Wow,i am working Esther's journey with Down syndrome 😢😢,i am so encouraged.I feel you Esther,its people who really lbring you down.even in church,i missed church for a whole year coz we could not cope,i know i will make it coz you did.Amen!!!
Pole Sana.this reminds me sometime I was down and called a friend seeking comfort but to my suprise, after the conversation she just laughed loud not knowing she had not hung up the phone.thats wen I learnt that people can pretend to be good friends when they are not . God help us
My friend Esther Wahome I salute you for maintaining your integrity in the Music Ministry. I love the fact that you have set a good example that marriage in deed works❤❤❤
This woman is such a blessing...... Why do people hurt others when they are going thru hard times... God's wrath is real just stop talking evil of others kindly. Esther u r a legend love u Mama... Lynn also bring Sara K will be blessed with her alot she is a mentor and a woman of integrity.. Churchill bado tunamgoja😊😊😊😊
I pray this shall be my testimony,I have an autistic 6yr old girl non verbal and a 2yr old with speech delay it's such a tough journey to endure,the father abandoned us I also got tired of therapy and left it to God, can't even afford therapy only trusting God that one day I will give a testimony,I can relate on so many levels.Such a tough journey.
Amen Amen Amen just be very very patient and keep the love going even the non verbal have their own way of communicating God will not give you a load that will break you, he is alive and watching over you and your family
Thank you JESUS for connecting Esther and her husband with divine friends who prayed and stood by them with their Son .You are the God of seasons and we Glorify your name Jesus thet is about every other name for their testimony in Jesus mighty name Amen .All those who watered Esther ,may the good Lord continue to water you . .Lynn ,God bless you for been a great listener .Enjoyed .
This beautiful lady is one of the remnants in the gospel music industry. She has also demonstrated integrity in balancing between marriage, music career and ministry. Congratulations.
I can tell the character of this man. He must be God fearing, there's a very big difference between God knowing and God fearing- no wonder he's selfless, reflective,learned,managed his ego,well mannered self controlled, hardworking. No wonder. Big up to him. I've always admired you Esther. Your values are quite something. I love you 😘💞😘
Am an adult living with autism, I had not had an easy life from childhood to adulthood. I was formally diagnosed with the condition at the age of 4years. Later I found medical records that my parents had hidden the diagnosis for a long time I really grew with rejection, and I wasn't been understood. My parents saw I was better off in a normal school which i didn't cope very well where I faced violation bullying,mockery. I was a slow learner and had moderate to severe learning disorder.
Esther wahomeeee, my legendary woman of God. Oh how i love this woman. She has taken me back to my happy childhood days. We used to losten to her music around the clock. Soo happy to get to hear your story
Esther Wahome we love and celebrate you. You are an all rounded Woman. You inspire us in so many ways . Your love for God and marriage is amazing. You are so graced with wisdom.
Such an awesome testimony of his son. Its encouraged me to keep trusting that one day Yahweh will physically heal my big brother Richard Maina who for the last 8 years has been totally dependant on people, doesn't walk after a fall. But just like Esther, he has come from not speaking to saying few words here and there which we are very grateful to Yahweh.
I really love Esther so much, nilikuwa naimba wimbo wake kuna dawa nikiwa shule till now nilkieda shagz watu huniita kuna dawa, thanks Lynn for hosting her on this show.❤🎉 Keep shining dear
People see autism as a curse or something bad. I have seen and experienced autistic kids and to me they are like angels on earth. The joy of seeing progress that parents with normal kids experience is different from parents with autistic kids. Their joy and happiness to see your child reaching that milestone (even much later) is priceless. Is it because society has condemn them? The joy of making eye contact, see a smile and eventually being given a hug! That joy is PRICELESS!
Ngai!!! Thank you Jesus. Today, i have heard for the 1st time somebody who spoke .y story word to word!! I am validated. Thank you servant of God, Esther Wahome for telling my story for me!! Thank you Lynn for doing this.
I remember that song Dawa. Some human beings spoke negative words when this particular song was played in bars and yet they themselves will not walk into those bars to win souls or just to encourage someone. I am not scared of walking into those places and God knows I do encourage many young ladies. No one is perfect and we are all living under God's grace. ❤ ❤ ESTHER, you are inspiration to many through your beautiful gift and may the Holy Spirit continue to brood upon you and your ministry in Jesus mighty name Amen.
Your testimony has truly lifted my spirits. My son, who is also autistic and non-verbal, will be turning 5 next week. Despite the challenges, he remains a beacon of joy. Your words have given me strength and encouragement when it's not easy. Thank you, Esther and Lynn, from the bottom of my heart. 🙏
Thanks Essy for sharing your story. My take home point: You should never view your challenges as a disadvantage. Instead, it's important for you to understand that your experience facing & overcoming hardship is actually one of your biggest advantage.
My sister Esther Wahome you have really encouraged me my Son has Trisomie 21 upto now he has not speak he only say Mama and Papa. If your son has Spoken i know God will make it for Son.
As a mum with a child in the spectrum, i relate with this..for parents its the loneliest journey you can ever take..yet you have to believe that it will get better.and by Gods grace it does. Thank you Lyne for bringing this woman of God.God is good.
Esther you are blessed having a man who love you,pray for us please who are going thru hard time in marriage, husband who when he was down tried your best to assist, but when he rose he loves shouting at me,Finding when he is not around you are happy because madharau physically hakuna, may God give him long life.But ......when I remember ooohh unto those who put their trust in men, I focus on God, thou can't ignore him because he is there
She's a star for real, to the Glory of God 😍🎉 I've loved her ever since I was a child, super excited Lynn finally caught her for us, we deeply needed her..😊 She's a pioneer for maaany good things. I love you mama, closely following as you follow Christ💕😘 Imagine hadi I silent have commented❤😅
Just landing on this lady,,, let me first comment on how excited I am to even know Im gonna watch her story today,,,, my take home will come later on🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂Thank you dear Lynn and the entire team
Oh Lynn God bless you. I loooooooooove Esther Wahome, I still listen to her Music, just yesterday evening I was listening to her ...Shekaina glory😊...Her kind of music is what we all need.
Esther Wahome, she was my inspiration to venture into gospel music, wow she still looks amazing. She has been tried over time and has been Faithful. Thank you Lynn for bringing her
Words have power, for me it's this part where the dad would talk to the billboard, have just learnt alot nd then the testimony wah, there is God in heaven ❤
Words can not described how much I am and have always been in awe of Ms. Esther Wahome. From her music, her beauty and.grace to her wisdom. She is a true icon in the Kenyan gospel music scene!
Esther, everything else aside (all encouraging), that story about your son, I hope more parents with autistic kids hear it! I don't have one, I have no one close with one, but I had a chance to interact with parents of autistic kids some time back in my career journey and on their behalf, thank you for sharing. It's very encouraging for such parents not to give up and the power of prayer. I pray for God to give you courage and wisdom to share it more, and even as you parent him - more grace! As for your haters, who's laughing now!
This reminds me of my son. He spoke at 4.5yr we were told alot of thing but our faith was in God. Deep down I knew one day he will talk my faith was so strong and when he started speaking he never stoped. He is very eloquent and speaks very good english. God is just amaizing.
Wow l love the part the dad used to pray for her billboards!!! Most ppl will never understand this but hi,life is spiritual. A strong woman of God,barikiwa sana Essy🤗🙏.
I love this lady her father used to come to our home and play the accordion to us and this triggered salvation and music in our family .I love music and God speaks to me through music to this day I call you queen Esther
Great to see you Esther, Lynn thank you for bringing her. She is a phenomenal woman. I was wondering where she went, I now understand. God is gracious her songs blesses my heart. Honor to you mama. It's great God gifted you with a great father, husband and friends.If God has honored you even if others try to bring you down. He will always uplift you. You are a blessing.
Well done girl Kui Wahome.... Truly God is Faithful. I am encouraged to learn of the journey... May you be everything God has purposed you to be. Many blessings too 🎉
How would the miracle be greater if the journey to the Son's miracle wouldn't have been there a motivational speaker once said 80% doesn't care what happens to you only 20% r haters but you see never look at them on a magnifying glass Lynn and Esther love you wonderful women
This story got me so emotional, this is my highlight .. ."God I'm sorry for asking why me because why not me"... Esther you are so beautiful, I've loved you since I was a kid and there's a time you kept a low profile and I started googling to know your whereabouts, didn't know this is what you were going through, I thank God for you, you emerged victorious.
I humbly want to take this opportunity to say thanks to Lynn and her team for having me on this show,and to all of you from this channel who have come to my channel after watching this and showered me with love and support, I really appreciate and I say God bless you all.
I'm so happy that so many have been inspired by this part of my story,and I'm also refreshed by your love on the comment section right here.
May God answer your prayers and turn your pain to gain, may he fight your battles for you and give you victory .
Amen
Amen your blessed
Amen
Amen! You are a blessing. Your story blessed me
Don't know if she'll see this but I also cry every time I remember my dad,he passed on years back and I have never recovered,I also can't bring myself to call any man of God (pastor )daddy I just can't, that's a special name for my dad only..I thought I was alone in this, glad to see someone who has the same mentality like mine.

"Do not sacrifice your life on the altar of marriage because God did not create you as a wife, God created you as a woman so be the woman,become a wife and become a good wife but don't sacrifice your life on the altar of marriage it is not Godly it is not right. Even any good husband will tell you that and push you to become the woman he sees in you even that which you don't see yourself." I love this!!
Every woman needs to hear this part
💯💯
But people please let us stop the habit of rejoicing about someone’s downfall because we really don’t know why God has put them in that situation
Absolutely true
Totally agree with you. ❤
❤ honestly!! If that’s not witchcraft I don’t even know what it is.
Very true
Kenyans we are weird people,we celebrate downfalls more than success
Having a non verbal autistic 9yr old boy ,today I dreamt we were having a conversation and then when I woke up ,I opened TH-cam and then I saw this as the first thing. I believe God wanted me to hear this and today I tap into this blessing and will still hold unto faith that one day we are going to have this conversation..This too shall be our testimony. God has a purpose for me to hear this..
Amen and Amen he will do it on his beautiful time continue trusting in him
Amen
I'm believing with you!and I say Amen!
Amen amen
Amen and amen. May the Lord grant you the desires of your heart.

The part of the baby with Autism got me in tears.
I am raising my daughter who came as a preemie,had convulsions for years and later diagnosed with AUTISM. It's been 6 years that feels like hell.
Hospitals have become our homes. Have lost myself in the journey, have delt with depression. But am trying to get myself back.
Please, it's not an easy journey... You lose even friends and you're left with no choice but to be strong for your child.
Please be kind to parents raising babies that are abled differently, it's overwhelming.
God bless LNN, God bless you all.
Take heart my dear, autism has affected many children, i too was informed that my child has autism but imagine i took it lighty and i talked to God that in everything His Glory reigns. Sooner than later you will have testimony
My dear may God give you Grace and favour beyond ,I stayed in a plot and a certain neighbour told everyone I was a witch ,she used to call my son kiwete and my son used to stay indoors and couldn't go out to play because of stigma the lady told pple that my son was in that state because I was a witch so pple should avoid me like plague ,my biological sister hated me and my son and trained her kids to hate my son I had to shift and never gone back to that place may God give us wisdom especially women😢😢
The autism part,has got me to tears,so hard dealing with an autistic child.
God remember my child 🙏🏾
He will continue trusting in him,he is doing it for mine and for sure he'll do it for you.
All in God's hands..hugs mama..this journey is one that needs Grace and a lot of love.
Mine is still doing well since he's now independent he does everything by himself ...he prepares breakfast for the family..believe in God and he shall lessen your burden.,
That part...... I trust our babies will be ok
Hugs mama@ Esther wahome. I can relate with you on the diagnosis of your child.I was so shocked when the Dr mentioned it to me for my son at 2yrs.He is 4and half now.The many sleepless nights, the meltdowns and tantrums, the picky eating,,,the hyperactivity ,mind you it was hard to communicate with him but God has been good to him we haveseen his faithfulness.with early intervention a child learns at his/her own pace. I thank God for His mercies that has carried us through each day at time. Lots of hugs
Hugs mama. I also have a son on the spectrum who is 8yrs now. God has been faithful.
How I wish the young gospel artists would humble themselves, sit and listen to the great wisdom oozing from this legend, this phenom, the one and only ESTHER WAHOME!!!!! LIFE IS SPIRITUAL.
The artistes will not listen. But the ministers will be quick to do it. Life is indeed spiritual.
Thanks
God is faithful..Wooiiii.......... Esther I need to meet you just for mentorship as a young mother coz your story about your 2nd born and 3rd born is exactly like mine . I Went to Kise last year and got informed that my 3 year old was Autistic and I was then pregnant with the 3rd child....Am just in tears as I Identify with you......
My son is now 4 years,speech not yet and have not started the Therapy yet due to financial challenges and I have a 2 months old to take care of.......so overwhelming and people don't understand what others go through.
Hugs hugs
May the Lord strengthen you and make a way ❤
Seek God he will help you my he is the owner of our lives he will heal your son Amen
Hi dear kindly where is Kise?@@wairimuangiekiruku5664
Sorry mama, visit kise their speech therapies are free
Where do people get the strength to mock people? This is a revelation I never knew. Rise Esther, the Lord your God is your anchor
My question exactly... you even wonder
Those who have no goals in life normally waste their time mocking others.
This was an interview and a half. A confirmation that those who look to God are radiant and their faces will never be covered with shame (Psalms 34) . I was encouraged, challenged, inspired and edified. I know I'll be back to watch again because for such interviews,one is never enough❤❤❤
She has never changed. Looking young and beautiful
This was my first gospel song to master in Swahili when I was 2😊
I wish all the parents could rise up like Esther's dad and become the priests in their homes and constantly bless their children!
My son came to me last year and asked me to bless him❤
Beautiful 🙏🙏
After high school, me and one of my friends used to visit a certain teacher in her house to watch TV since we had none at the time..I particularly remember the teacher loved playing Esther's songs (CDs) and I would long for the day I'd get my own house and TV..
Today, 20 years later I get to watch Esther's story in my house (though rented) and on my TV..
I'm so encouraged, inspired and motivated in my walk of faith. Much more blessings to you dear Esther.. you're truly a role model to us women and a great soldier of Christ.
Thank you Lynn🙏
Have loved Esther for her passion.
Esther is one of the remnants!!Marriages are different but values are the same...May God continue to bless her. Lynn rebuilding series is powerful with so much impact!!
The part i have liked most is that part how he struggled with his autistic son until he gained speech. That is God. Lynn you should have a segment of parents parenting children who are abled differently. This people are forgotten in the society and judged harshly. Give them platform to voice their journey and i know they can be an encouragement to one another. I have a friend who has two autistic boys , i can tell is overwhelming. It is not an easy journey. Judy i wish you listen to Esther wahome testimony and i know it will give you hope. And to all parents with children who are abled differently I salute you. Never give up.
Esther Wahome I heard her songs when I was still at school it's good bado anafurahia wakovu wake
When we were in primary school wow 👌 looking young
I am a kindergarten teacher,
It is a call for me to be with these children, helping shape their destinies.
I have been undergoing some challenges ,my take today,I am a system and so many are relaying on me being strong hence I won't fold but will hold on strong and keep fighting 🙏💪.
Thank you Lynn for having a phenomenal woman Esther share her testimony be blessed.
This woman is full of Grace and she's oozing wisdom
Out of all the stories I have watched on this channel this is one I have related with the most . My husband and I were blessed with a neurodivergent child and through this journey we have grown and stuck together . The storm will either make you or break you but with God at the center of it all you will overcome . We thank God for the little progress and milestones achived and we are a little team that refuses to give up and just go all out for our boy . It’s a ministry we have been chosen for in this life and we accept it and surrender it all to His feet as you said Esther . Thank you so much Lynn and Esther for sharing this and yes our boy is also very gifted with a fantastic memory . We are grateful 🙏🏾
"When you are busy genuinely ministering, in your years of your making; God is busy stamping your name in the hearts of people" Esther 💥💫
It's like we are watching at the same pace❤❤❤😂
❤
@@djrakams8825 Definitely has to be our word too
This is SOOO powerful!!
I will not move church for anyone! But I will not allow disrespect👌 Thank you for speaking to my heart. Church wounds hurt deeply.
Hi Esther. Still that great beautiful and intelligent girl that i taught many years ago and I am proud of you. Your high school teacher here- please get in touch.
She is beautiful,keep winning Esther,the reason we r still strong,is dat we can't STOP dog from barking.
About the autism this is so my boy he's 16 years now & spoke at 6 years, today am happy & i give God all the Glory 💯
I know God is still on the throne and He's held me in His hand...more to come for His Glory 🙏
Amen and Amen
Sending love
Amen 🙏
@@estherwahomeofficial7198 thanks mama 👏
Thanks for sharing. I wish I could reach out to you. 3 year old not speaking and such encouraging testimonies give me so much hope.
Those who are here in 2080, I want you to know that in March 2024 we hit 1M followers and we camped here waiting for Lynn Ngugi's work and that also, she was the best of our time.
Much love from Toronto Lynn gaitû. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
So it's 2080 after we celebrated Easter and I still listen to Esther Wahome songs Kuna Dawa because when my Dad who used to drive G -Touring had Esther Wahome CD like Shakaina glory..
That was superb Lynn. Esther Wahome is a beacon of hope. I named my daughter Shekinah and she resonated with that song in 2003/2004. Every time she heard the song, she would become excited and radiant though she couldn't get the words. Esther has touched on a very important topic. Hurt from church. Brethrens have to guard their hearts above everything else for out of the heart comes issues of life. Otherwise, the church can cause irreparable damage to christians who peg their hope there. Our focus should be God and Him only. God bless Lynn and Esther.
That part of her son has moved me into tears,,, and she has told me how to pray and leave it at Jesus feet,,, this has encouraged to b strong to My son who has elliptic,, and I thank God that one day he will be a great son,, thanks Lynn and Esther for this interview,,,am a domestic worker and a single mum of 3,, and these are the stories which keeps me going,,🙏🙏🙏🙏
Its a story of victory indeed🙏 my son got convulsions at 3yrs went to icu for 18days and lost his speech from then,right now he's 5.6yrs and he's regaining his speech slowly,he says mum,my brothers name,etc ,he's teacher also confirmed that he's doing well in school 🙏 did i also say he's been convulsion free for an year plus 🙏 after listening to this testimony i know God will walk with my son and everything will be okay 🙏❤
Sending love and hugs to all parents with special Needs❤
Esther's interview has given me a hope,i have cried enough,i have prayed enough,i have visited many hospitals,i have taken my son to many therapy even far away...i will let God do his part...AMEN
amen
Sending love
The goosebumps I felt when she was talking about her dad and the covering he placed over her. Oh my! More grace, Esther.
People who grow up with an evidently loving father always succeed. It is inevitable. Mothers can love but a father’s love is incomparable. It is a blessing that catapults. I wish all men understood this and will change the narrative
Well put
Very true ❤
This true
So true. Also remember that even Single mothers/ mothers in general got Authority to bring their children under PARENTAL COVER. YES. AMEN
True
Today I asked God to speak to me about blessings from fathers, especially from fathers who were never there for their kids. It didnt make sense to me. Until I swithched this channel on and heard Esther... I have my answer. Thank you, God. Thank you Esther.
True dear 💕 The blood of Jesus Christ speaks great things upon us who our fathers were not there 🙏❤
Big ups girl😊. If we get chance let's interview Sarah K ❤
I support
Sure
I second that
Yes please sarah
And Gloria muliro by chance😮
My take home. Don't sacrifice yourself at the alter of marriage. God made you as a woman first. Thank you, Esther. Lynn, Thanks for bringing Esther.
Esther, you are still as beautiful and blessed as ever. On what people were taking about you, take heart because other people's invalidation doesn't define you. Me and my family have been blessed with your music from whence you started evangelism through music. Secondly, Esther, no matter how good you can be in pleasing people including sacrificing yourself for others including relatives to be happy, not all do appreciate. In Counseling we are told, take care of your life first before you think of caring of other people out there.
Marriage works even for those that are in the celebrity lane. Esther and Kassanga are a living example. The only problem in today's "celebrity" world is that after making few coins, they feel on top of the world and go wild in matters pride, validation and changing partners. The yesteryear gospel artist of Esther and Kassangas generation were doing singing as a calling and for God not money or views. Earnings never influenced their marriage negatively instead it strengthened them. Look at how beautiful and proud this awesome Esther is. She is humble to the core. Today, gospel is about views, show-off and competition on who is making more millions than the other. I wish, by Lynn bringing such incredible legendary guests that inspire positively, our young couples are listening impactively so that their life can make meaning. Being faithful to your spouse is God's purpose in your marriage. Too much money or big cars do not define success in your marriage but humility, respect and being humble to your cause can be an accomplishment.
Esther, go out there and preach to the world without caring whether they receive it negatively or positively. One's change is a personal choice. Esther, God's grace is sufficient for you and your family. I celebrate your husband 100%.Great man of God that allowed you to travel to nations to preach the gospel of Christ through music. Few men can do that.
Esther Wahome bolongs to the GOLDEN ERA of Kenyans gospel industry. When gospel music took over all the airwaves in Kenya...... And she still haven't lost her incredible voice.God bless her 🙏
Mungu akukumbuke na akwinuwe tena ata ukianguka mara ssba utainuka tena bado kuna nguvu ndani ya damu ya yedu
Wow,i am working Esther's journey with Down syndrome 😢😢,i am so encouraged.I feel you Esther,its people who really lbring you down.even in church,i missed church for a whole year coz we could not cope,i know i will make it coz you did.Amen!!!
May God bless you in the journey. He is faithful
Pole Sana.this reminds me sometime I was down and called a friend seeking comfort but to my suprise, after the conversation she just laughed loud not knowing she had not hung up the phone.thats wen I learnt that people can pretend to be good friends when they are not . God help us
What a mighty God we serve Jeremiah 32 26_27
My friend Esther Wahome I salute you for maintaining your integrity in the Music Ministry. I love the fact that you have set a good example that marriage in deed works❤❤❤
We miss you Sarah❤❤
Hi Lynn n our very good guest Esther wahome in this world pple wait for your downfall .keep moving don't mind what pple says.
@@LynnNgugiThank you Lynn, I miss you too, hoping to see you next time I visit ❤❤❤🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Hey Sarah

God bless you
Team Lynn OYEEE 🎉
@@deborahbett412 Thank you for your moral support, I am so grateful and humbled 🙏🙏🙏
This woman is such a blessing......
Why do people hurt others when they are going thru hard times...
God's wrath is real just stop talking evil of others kindly.
Esther u r a legend love u Mama...
Lynn also bring Sara K will be blessed with her alot she is a mentor and a woman of integrity..
Churchill bado tunamgoja😊😊😊😊
Affirmation from the father is very strong in Esther's life and that is what the majority luck
Kuna Dawa hit changed many alcoholics and made them see the light Kudos girl
I pray this shall be my testimony,I have an autistic 6yr old girl non verbal and a 2yr old with speech delay it's such a tough journey to endure,the father abandoned us I also got tired of therapy and left it to God, can't even afford therapy only trusting God that one day I will give a testimony,I can relate on so many levels.Such a tough journey.
Amen Amen Amen just be very very patient and keep the love going even the non verbal have their own way of communicating God will not give you a load that will break you, he is alive and watching over you and your family
Thank you JESUS for connecting Esther and her husband with divine friends who prayed and stood by them with their Son .You are the God of seasons and we Glorify your name Jesus thet is about every other name for their testimony in Jesus mighty name Amen .All those who watered Esther ,may the good Lord continue to water you . .Lynn ,God bless you for been a great listener .Enjoyed .
This lady is among the true gospel artist,I always and will always love her songs
He who laughs by making others cry, will one day swim in the pool of tears!
Wow!
Deep 😢
I was wondering where she went to..Happy to see her still glowing.
Lynn nowadays si u are working hard aki😊 May God continue blessing your efforts
Amen and Amen❤
IKR....
This beautiful lady is one of the remnants in the gospel music industry. She has also demonstrated integrity in balancing between marriage, music career and ministry. Congratulations.
I can tell the character of this man. He must be God fearing, there's a very big difference between God knowing and God fearing- no wonder he's selfless, reflective,learned,managed his ego,well mannered self controlled, hardworking. No wonder. Big up to him.
I've always admired you Esther. Your values are quite something. I love you 😘💞😘
Thanks, yes he is God fearing
My take home....God created me to be a woman not a wife that hit hard❤.So much knowledge and integrity❤❤❤
And Esther looks very beautiful ❤️❤️.. glowing in Christ
Am an adult living with autism, I had not had an easy life from childhood to adulthood. I was formally diagnosed with the condition at the age of 4years. Later I found medical records that my parents had hidden the diagnosis for a long time I really grew with rejection, and I wasn't been understood. My parents saw I was better off in a normal school which i didn't cope very well where I faced violation bullying,mockery. I was a slow learner and had moderate to severe learning disorder.
More grace! God loves you. He has a purpose for you!
Esther wahomeeee, my legendary woman of God. Oh how i love this woman. She has taken me back to my happy childhood days. We used to losten to her music around the clock.
Soo happy to get to hear your story
Esther Wahome we love and celebrate you. You are an all rounded Woman. You inspire us in so many ways . Your love for God and marriage is amazing. You are so graced with wisdom.
Such an awesome testimony of his son. Its encouraged me to keep trusting that one day Yahweh will physically heal my big brother Richard Maina who for the last 8 years has been totally dependant on people, doesn't walk after a fall. But just like Esther, he has come from not speaking to saying few words here and there which we are very grateful to Yahweh.
May God remember him
I really love Esther so much, nilikuwa naimba wimbo wake kuna dawa nikiwa shule till now nilkieda shagz watu huniita kuna dawa, thanks Lynn for hosting her on this show.❤🎉 Keep shining dear
Nimekuja mbio. She is still beautiful and very inspiring
People see autism as a curse or something bad. I have seen and experienced autistic kids and to me they are like angels on earth. The joy of seeing progress that parents with normal kids experience is different from parents with autistic kids. Their joy and happiness to see your child reaching that milestone (even much later) is priceless. Is it because society has condemn them? The joy of making eye contact, see a smile and eventually being given a hug! That joy is PRICELESS!
she was still is my favorite gospel minister of all time..her rose muhando and Angela chibalonza this women praise God from their hearts
Ngai!!! Thank you Jesus.
Today, i have heard for the 1st time somebody who spoke .y story word to word!! I am validated. Thank you servant of God, Esther Wahome for telling my story for me!!
Thank you Lynn for doing this.
I remember that song Dawa. Some human beings spoke negative words when this particular song was played in bars and yet they themselves will not walk into those bars to win souls or just to encourage someone. I am not scared of walking into those places and God knows I do encourage many young ladies. No one is perfect and we are all living under God's grace. ❤ ❤ ESTHER, you are inspiration to many through your beautiful gift and may the Holy Spirit continue to brood upon you and your ministry in Jesus mighty name Amen.
Your testimony has truly lifted my spirits. My son, who is also autistic and non-verbal, will be turning 5 next week. Despite the challenges, he remains a beacon of joy. Your words have given me strength and encouragement when it's not easy. Thank you, Esther and Lynn, from the bottom of my heart. 🙏
Thanks Essy for sharing your story. My take home point: You should never view your challenges as a disadvantage. Instead, it's important for you to understand that your experience facing & overcoming hardship is actually one of your biggest advantage.
My sister Esther Wahome you have really encouraged me my Son has Trisomie 21 upto now he has not speak he only say Mama and Papa. If your son has Spoken i know God will make it for Son.
As a mum with a child in the spectrum, i relate with this..for parents its the loneliest journey you can ever take..yet you have to believe that it will get better.and by Gods grace it does. Thank you Lyne for bringing this woman of God.God is good.
What a testimony! To God be the glory. It’s so good to see you Esther Wahome. Your testimony will bring hope to many no doubt.
The editing between 'coming up' and the intro song...seamless blend😊👏👏
Esther you are blessed having a man who love you,pray for us please who are going thru hard time in marriage, husband who when he was down tried your best to assist, but when he rose he loves shouting at me,Finding when he is not around you are happy because madharau physically hakuna, may God give him long life.But ......when I remember ooohh unto those who put their trust in men, I focus on God, thou can't ignore him because he is there
She's still the beautiful Esther keep on going girl tunakupenda and still your songs bless many todate
This woman is a class act. Stylish, graceful, so wise.
She's a star for real, to the Glory of God 😍🎉
I've loved her ever since I was a child, super excited Lynn finally caught her for us, we deeply needed her..😊
She's a pioneer for maaany good things. I love you mama, closely following as you follow Christ💕😘
Imagine hadi I silent have commented❤😅
Just landing on this lady,,, let me first comment on how excited I am to even know Im gonna watch her story today,,,, my take home will come later on🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂Thank you dear Lynn and the entire team
Oh Lynn God bless you. I loooooooooove Esther Wahome, I still listen to her Music, just yesterday evening I was listening to her
...Shekaina glory😊...Her kind of music is what we all need.
Asante
Esther Wahome, she was my inspiration to venture into gospel music, wow she still looks amazing. She has been tried over time and has been Faithful. Thank you Lynn for bringing her
Words have power, for me it's this part where the dad would talk to the billboard, have just learnt alot nd then the testimony wah, there is God in heaven ❤
You're a strong woman of God keep on praising and serving your creator ❤❤❤❤
Words can not described how much I am and have always been in awe of Ms. Esther Wahome. From her music, her beauty and.grace to her wisdom. She is a true icon in the Kenyan gospel music scene!
My take home , parents should constantly bless their children. Marriages can succeed through the worst storms. I love you lady Esther.
The “mom food” sentence made me smile . Glory be unto God. When his time is right the Lord makes it happen.
I am sooo glad to see Esther, may God give you strength to rise and raise a godly generation.
Esther, everything else aside (all encouraging), that story about your son, I hope more parents with autistic kids hear it! I don't have one, I have no one close with one, but I had a chance to interact with parents of autistic kids some time back in my career journey and on their behalf, thank you for sharing. It's very encouraging for such parents not to give up and the power of prayer. I pray for God to give you courage and wisdom to share it more, and even as you parent him - more grace! As for your haters, who's laughing now!
This Lady is really amazing.
I love her songs and the way she loves God❤
Thanks Lynn for bringing her ❤
This reminds me of my son. He spoke at 4.5yr we were told alot of thing but our faith was in God. Deep down I knew one day he will talk my faith was so strong and when he started speaking he never stoped. He is very eloquent and speaks very good english. God is just amaizing.
Wow l love the part the dad used to pray for her billboards!!! Most ppl will never understand this but hi,life is spiritual. A strong woman of God,barikiwa sana Essy🤗🙏.
She is blessed to have grown up with a loving father
I love this lady her father used to come to our home and play the accordion to us and this triggered salvation and music in our family .I love music and God speaks to me through music to this day I call you queen Esther
Aaaaw lovely memories
thanks Esther for coming out and giving hope to that other person who has no hope God bless you.
Am excited to see Esther on LNN you are such a blessing
Great to see you Esther, Lynn thank you for bringing her. She is a phenomenal woman. I was wondering where she went, I now understand. God is gracious her songs blesses my heart. Honor to you mama. It's great God gifted you with a great father, husband and friends.If God has honored you even if others try to bring you down. He will always uplift you. You are a blessing.
Esther Authentic Christlike Classy Wahome - Deskie
Aaaaw baraka dear
Well done girl Kui Wahome....
Truly God is Faithful.
I am encouraged to learn of the journey... May you be everything God has purposed you to be.
Many blessings too 🎉
Thanks my sis right from shags,growing up together as young girls is a memory i treasure great to see you hear
Esther Wahome, great woman from my home town Nyeri.very humble❤
How would the miracle be greater if the journey to the Son's miracle wouldn't have been there a motivational speaker once said 80% doesn't care what happens to you only 20% r haters but you see never look at them on a magnifying glass Lynn and Esther love you wonderful women
This story got me so emotional, this is my highlight .. ."God I'm sorry for asking why me because why not me"... Esther you are so beautiful, I've loved you since I was a kid and there's a time you kept a low profile and I started googling to know your whereabouts, didn't know this is what you were going through, I thank God for you, you emerged victorious.
Seeing Gospel artists like Esther,a noble wife and woman is a blessing.
