Predestined Purpose

A predestined purpose is one of the many awesome gifts we can receive from God and He alone make it picture perfect!  We follow in obedience.

For if you remain silent at this time, liberation and rescue will arise for the Jews from another place, and you and your father’s house will perish [since you did not help when you had the chance]. And who knows whether you have attained royalty for such a time as this [and for this very purpose]?”

One evening in May 2017 while in prayer and seeking guidance from the Lord - I clearly received reference to Queen Esther. As I understood the manner in which I was referred to the Book of Esther, in the Bible, I spent some time getting familiar with this Word of God.

In short let me give a brief background - please do take the time to read this beautiful Word yourself. But in short...

Esther was among hundreds of other young women selected as a bride for the Persian king. She was raised by her Jewish uncle, who decided that she should change her name Hadassah to Esther to hide her true identity as a child of God.  The king loved Esther and the Persian kingdom got a Jewish Queen without them knowing it.  But a time came that Esther and all the Jewish people realized that she had a predestined purpose and her identity came to light as she interceeded for the lives of a nation.

Before Esther became queen she went through a phase of preparation. We sometimes disregard the periods of preparing or waiting.  We do not understand what we are not yet able to see -the bigger picture.

God sees it all, He is the Beginning and the End... so He knows how everything plays out. 

The Lord of Angel-Armies, raise up kings and He also does the opposite.  It is important to realize that God preselects us for a task but He never forces us. Unfortunately when our human wisdom tends to get in the way of His wisdom there may be some consequences but then He selects again or even reselects to give us another chance at obedience.

He is Merciful like that and He Fathers us until we get it right or at least try to get it right.  He gives great assistance when we seek Him.

Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart.

Preparation, Intercession, Victory in Christ! And this is how all of us can attain royalty.

Oceans

'God claims the world as His. Everything and everyone belongs to Him!  He's the one Who pushed back oceans to let the dry ground appear, planting firm foundations for the earth.' Ps. 24: 1-2 The Passion Translation (Image found on pinterst saved from shellsonthebeach.tumblr.com) In July 2017 I dreamt of standing infront of the ocean and as I was looking over the beautiful display of the works of God, I saw the ocean being pulled back and then suddenly the ocean shifted. The water came rushing out of a different direction and reached new areas that it did not reach before.  As I meditated on this revelation and asked the Lord what He was revealing to me in this dream.  I clearly and on several occasions, received the explanation in Isaiah 43... 'This is what the Lord says, He who makes a way through the sea And a path through the mighty waters, “Do not remember the former things, Or ponder the things of the past. “Listen carefully, I am about to do a new...

THE GIFT IN THE REBUKE

Image
A parent has the responsibility to shape and mould their children from an early age.  A mother corrects her child while breastfeeding, giving gentle instructions. A close friend and sister in Christ recently gave birth to a beautiful baby boy and listening to her new profound journey in motherhood is just so beautiful.  From the first moment, the feeding process is accompanied with teaching and instruction to ensure growth and development. This goes hand in hand with the intimate bond between a child and parent. like newborn babies [you should] long for the pure milk of the word, so that by it you may be nurtured and grow in respect to salvation [its ultimate fulfillment], if in fact you have [already] tasted the goodness and gracious kindness of the Lord. 1 PETER 2:2‭-‬3 AMP https://bible.com/bible/1588/1pe.2.2-3.AMP Photo found on Pinterest.

Hit The Ground Running

[The Lord rebukes Jeremiah for his impatience, saying] “If you have raced with men on foot and they have tired you out, Then how can you compete with horses? If you fall down in a land of peace [where you feel secure], Then how will you do [among the lions] in the [flooded] thicket beside the Jordan? JEREMIAH 12:5 AMP https://bible.com/bible/1588/jer.12.5.AMP When we have chosen life in Christ our reality shifts into a new Truth. Truth that comes to life when the Light of the World moves into our hearts and shares with us things we did not know before. Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and will dine with him, and he with Me. The Revelation 3:20 TLV https://bible.com/bible/314/rev.3.20.TLV To keep up with horses we need the Creator to feed us Truth. We still get to experience life, the joys and the challenges, but The Lord f Lordpromises that He will go with us through the fire, the waters and th...
