Latest / Daily Transformation / Life is Spiritual; Lesson from Queen Esther Story
Transcript
- 0:00How many of you are familiar with this statement?
- 0:02Life is very spiritual, you see. It has almost become a cliche,
- 0:07or maybe you're hearing for the first time, or you're still
- 0:09battling and rattling with the understanding of what it implies
- 0:13that life is spiritual. And because of that, you have
- 0:16not been able to take your spiritual advantage, you know,
- 0:19in order for you to apportion or to properly receive everything
- 0:23that you need to receive. Indeed, life is spiritual.
- 0:27You know, I was going through the Scriptures today and I
- 0:29realized some things, especially with the story of Esther, you
- 0:33know, particularly the book of Esther, because the way the Jews
- 0:37were about to be annihilated by a certain man called a man, you
- 0:42know, he was the enemy of the Jews.
- 0:43So and not just him alone, but even his clan, they had these
- 0:47plots to actually eradicate and to completely destroy a certain
- 0:52tribe called the Jewish people. So I mean, so it means that the
- 0:55battle against the Jewish nation has not only been today, even
- 0:59since the days of Estas and beyond that.
- 1:01So what happened was that everything was already working
- 1:04against them, completely against them.
- 1:06And based on every rights, they were actually supposed to
- 1:09already be making their last wish and their last declaration.
- 1:14So but eventually you I see that all of a sudden it's like there
- 1:19was a shift. One of these shift was that
- 1:21there was an orchestration to remove the Queen Vash, and that
- 1:25was how Esther came into the picture.
- 1:26But beyond just that, that would have not still preserved the
- 1:28Jewish people. So there was a man called
- 1:30Mordecai. He was actually the point in
- 1:33which a man wanted to use as an example.
- 1:36He already had all his strategy and plans and he was even
- 1:39boasting about his wealth, his influence and everything.
- 1:42But beyond just that, there was something that these Jewish
- 1:46people understood. They knew that physically
- 1:48speaking, we do not have advantage, but we can turn the
- 1:52tie around when we switch into the realm of the spirit.
- 1:55And that is what many people are failing to realize today.
- 1:58You see that you're battling with life.
- 2:00Everything is fighting against your life and as though you are
- 2:04at the point of losing and even in some area you have lost
- 2:06certain things. But not many people have
- 2:08understood how to leverage on the spiritual advantage that
- 2:11they have in order for them to execute or to see what God has
- 2:16in store for their life. So what did these Jewish people
- 2:19do? They declare a fast all over the
- 2:22provinces that they were in. And before you knew it, after
- 2:27that fast was declared, even the Queen Esther engaged in it.
- 2:32But do you see something very powerful that happened after
- 2:34that? It was that they verdict
- 2:38automatically Tom. It made me see that truly life
- 2:41is very spiritual because the moment that this plug into their
- 2:44spiritual advantage, every force that was responsible to fighting
- 2:49them began to fight for them. First the king asked Esther,
- 2:53what do you want? I can give even half of my
- 2:54Kingdom. In fact, when you read that
- 2:56thing, you'll be wondering why was the king saying I can even
- 2:58give Esther because there was no reference as to the beauty of
- 3:03Esther in terms of her physical beauty.
- 3:05We all, all we knew was that she found favor.
- 3:07There was no description. Yes, she was, you know, she was
- 3:12amazing. She was great.
- 3:13But you can see the king was willing to share his Kingdom,
- 3:16which it has never happened before.
- 3:17No king wants to share his Kingdom with anybody.
- 3:20So it shows you the power of you praying and actually fasting,
- 3:25especially when you are going through a kind of season that
- 3:29everything seems to be against your life.
- 3:32You can turn it. It's like a verdict that is
- 3:35about to be pronounce and all of a sudden you bring one more
- 3:39evidence and then all of a sudden the case done for your
- 3:42own good. That was what happened to the
- 3:44Jewish people. And I want to encourage you
- 3:45today, whatever you're going through, you can turn it because
- 3:50truly life is very spiritual. Feel free to share this with
- 3:53somebody. See you next time.
