For if you remain completely silent at this time, relief and deliverence will arise for the Jews from another place, but you and your father's house will perish. Yet who knows wether you have come to the kingdom for such a time as this?" Esther 4:14
*A wise man uses God's favor not as an opportunity to further self ambition but as an occasion of serve His purpose.
Now it happened on the third day that Esther put on her royal robes and stood in the inner court of the king's palace, across from the king's house, while the king sat on his royal throne in the royal house, facing the entrance of the house. So it was, when the king saw Queen Esther standing in the court, that she found favor in his sight, and the king held out to Esther the golden scepter that was in his hand. Then Esther went near and touched the top of the scepter. Esther 5:1-2
*We need to note here, that we do have to change with the times. There is a blessing on the horizon for the person of purpose. And if you are that person of purpose, you are right on the border of your blessing.
Those who sow in tears Shall reap in joy. He who continually goes forth weeping, Bearing seed for sowing, Shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, Bringing sheaves with him. Psalm 126:5-6
*Woe to the person with seeds that does not water them. Sow in tears and reap joy!
He shall be like a tree Planted by the rivers of water, That brings forth its fruit in its season, Whose leaf also shall not wither; And whatever he does shall prosper. Psalm 1:3
*When it's the right season and time you can accomplish things that you tried to do at other times, but couldn't perform.
Don't demand fruit when it's not in season.
When the season ends, don't be upset. Instead, be prepared to go into the next season. Season to Season; Faith to Faith.
For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, "The just shall live by faith." Romans 1:17
*What a wonderful place to be in where you can trust God to operate for your ultimate good. Do not love your ministry more than you love God.
There's always an area where you can be fruitful, it just may not be in the same area all the time.
Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all long-suffering and teaching. 2 Timothy 4:2
For if you remain completely silent at this time, relief and deliverence will arise for the Jews from another place, but you and your father's house will perish. Yet who knows wether you have come to the kingdom for such a time as this?" Esther 4:14
*You can be prepared for just one instance. God wants to produce "quality" and not "quantity".
