Kingdom Purpose

Excerpt from “Field of Faith”

God will take the trap that was meant to take you out and turn it back on your enemies.

In the book of Esther, we read of a certain Jew named Mordecai. He and his cousin Hadassah (also known as Esther) were carried away captive from their home in Jerusalem.

Even in captivity, God began to show favor to Esther by having her chosen as a new queen. During this time of blessing, the enemy was scheming to take them out. An evil man named Haman hated all Jews and tried to set up a plan to take Mordecai out and have him hung. Haman had gallows made at his own house just for Mordecai.

Esther and Mordecai had favor from the Lord. God made it to where Haman had to array Mordecai with royal clothing and parade him down the street and publicly announce that Mordecai has been honored by the king, and ultimately, Haman was found guilty and hung in his own gallows.

Esther and Mordecai started as prisoners but were elevated to rulers in that kingdom. These same things hold true to every believer. What the enemy means for evil, God will turn for the good of them that love Him. (Genesis 50:20)

From prisoners to rulers! Esthers are arising in this season with a passion for the King. The ones caring the Esther anointing know they are seen, known, and chosen for such a time as this. Their eyes are fixed on Jesus and they are not allowing distractions of this world to shift their view. What was meant for evil, delay, or harm will be turned around for good. I call forth the Esthers to rise and go forth in what the Lord has called you to do in this season. As you fix your eyes on the King, you shall walk in His favor.

Esther 4:14 (ESV), “For if you keep silent at this time, relief and deliverance will rise for the Jews from another place, but you and your father's house will perish. And who knows whether you have not come to the kingdom for such a time as this?”

Everything sent to harm you has been a direct attack and strategy from hell to stop your destiny and call. Even though it feels like a personal attack, it is not about you at all. It is about Jesus in you, the Kingdom purpose that you are created for, and what He has you on this earth to do. I encourage you to change your focus, see the Kingdom purpose, and see from His view. Dive deep into His Word in this season. Nothing can stop the Lord Almighty. What He has called you to do is fulfilled by your obedience. Hold fast, fix your eyes on Jesus, and watch the favor of God on your life wash over you and cause you to soar over all that was meant to stop you. God wins and the devil loses... every single time.

Isaiah 40:31 (ESV), “but those who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not be faint.”

Numbers 6:24-26 (NKJV), “The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make His face shine upon you, and be gracious to you; the Lord lift up His countenance upon you, and give you peace.”
