ESTHER WAS DIVINELY CONNECTED

Esther would have walked away from obeying or following the instructions of Mordicai after becoming the queen and the best wife of the king. If she had done that, she would have ended as being only the queen without a divine godly duty and would have missed the greater glory in what God intended for the rest of her life. She would have missed being God’s advocate for the Jews in the kingdom and around the world under the king in their time of greatest need. God still has something bigger and more glorious for you to do for Him in this your present position and current situation. God is yet to put an end to His program with you: look up not down, look unto Him and not to self, open your eyes and always maintain the divine connection that He did establish for you or is establishing for you right now.

Your present success is important but it is very small compared to what God intends to bring out from it; your present failure or hardship is never a setback to you in God’s sight, neither will it be of any hindrance to your designed future if your divine connection is solidly maintained and you are perfectly adhering to the instructions to obey the spirits promptings to actively invest yourself in that connection through obedience.

Esther was divinely, perfectly and securely connected with Mordicai throughout despite being his cousin originally and a complete orphan. Mordicai was jobless, poor, sick and had no house to live in but he had something that will enhance Esther’s life through a divine connection. By a divine providence she became the queen, but by a divine connection with Mordicai, she received power to become God’s advocate in the palace to the Jews around the world.

Through the divine connection, Esther did not consider the hopelessness, homelessness, poverty, and the joblessness of Mordicai to be a hindrance as a queen, and she did not think herself better than him. Mordecai sent this to Esther: “Don’t think for a moment that because you’re in the palace you will escape when all other Jews are killed. If you keep quiet at a time like this, deliverance and relief for the Jews will arise from some other place, but you and your relatives will die. Who knows if perhaps you were made queen for just such a time as this? Esther 4:13-14

When Esther walk in obedience to Mordicai, she became God’s inside advocate to save the Jews, this was the result of that divine connection between the ywo of them: “Esther said, If it please the king, and if I have found favor with him, and if he thinks it is right, and if I am pleasing to him, let there be a decree that reverses the orders of Haman son of Hammedatha the Agagite, who ordered that Jews throughout all the king’s provinces should be destroyed. For how can I endure to see my people and my family slaughtered and destroyed? Then King Xerxes said to Queen Esther and Mordecai the Jew, I have given Esther the property of Haman, and he has been impaled on a pole because he tried to destroy the Jews. Now go ahead and send a message to the Jews in the king’s name, telling them whatever you want, and seal it with the king’s signet ring. But remember that whatever has already been written in the king’s name and sealed with his signet ring can never be revoked. So on June 25 the king’s secretaries were summoned, and a decree was written exactly as Mordecai dictated. It was sent to the Jews and to the highest officers, the governors, and the nobles of all the 127 provinces stretching from India to Ethiopia. The decree was written in the scripts and languages of all the peoples of the empire, including that of the Jews.” Esther 8:5-9

Through that divine connection, Mordicai escaped the wicked intent of Haman, the decree to kill all the Jews was changed, Mordicai was remembered for the good which had been forgotten and was adequately compensated, Esther was established as God’s advocate and firmly positioned in the King’s palace, in the king’s heart and as the king’s wife to bring deliverance to the Jews.
