Esther
1:10 – 12
On
the seventh day, when the heart of the king was merry with wine, he commanded
Mehuman, Biztha, Harbona, Bigtha, and Abagtha, Zethar, and Carcas, the seven
chamberlains that served in the presence of Ahasuerus the king, To bring Vashti the queen before the king
with the crown royal, to shew the people and the princes her beauty: for she was fair to look on. But the queen Vashti refused to come at the
king's commandment by his
chamberlains: therefore was the king very wroth, and his anger burned in him.
You are welcome to STRETCH YOUTH SUMMIT. In this month of September,
we shall be looking into a topic the Holy Spirit has instructed me to teach
through His Grace. Last Month (JULY),
we looked into the issue of ‘THE FIGHT’
and the Lord was able to heal hurting hearts, and deal with certain issues
we’ve over looked.
Praise
God!
Today’s lecture is a
continuation of last month seminar and if you were not around for the last
seminar, kindly visit our blog www.hopeexpresionforum.blogspot.com.ng
and search for “THE FIGHT” and read.
Let’s go into the
business of the day and may the Holy Spirit possess your heart with the truth
of his word as we start in Jesus Name – Amen.
Who
is Esther? Esther
is the life style of God’s kingdom that expresses excellence, purpose
discovery, respect, being polite, and Godly character. She is
the type of personality that is subject to purpose
discovery, preparation, guidance, and obedience. She is the type of personality that has God as her
source. She is the type of personality that is always in turn of God’s plan per
time, per season. She is the type of personality defined through God’s nature.
She is the personality clothed with discipline in Righteousness.
Esther
is not representing the female gender alone; she represents both the male and
female gender. These experience births the principle of purpose; whatsoever that does not, function according
to the plan of God will be killed or destroyed. This is the season where
this principle in God will begin to unfold.
Who
is Queen Vashti? Queen Vashti is the personality of ignorance,
carelessness, pride and disobedience. Funny enough, this is
the kind of personality lots of men, and ladies in the church are having today.
This kind of personality lacks the understanding of the times, and season of
the operations of God in our lives. They take things for granted. These are the
kind of people with shallow thoughts, and this kind of people lacks Godly character,
and preparation through the word of God. These people are self-centered, and
their lives are full of pride.
Just like soccer, YELLOW CARD is a warning card given to a player whenever he commits
a foul. In this journey of life and love – the Lord is giving a warning signal
to His people. We have allowed ignorance to deceive us. The Grace of the our
Lord Jesus Christ has now become an excuse for many youths, and teenagers to
misbehave in their walk with God and in their relationship with the people
around them (platonic & emotional). This is an error that must be
corrected.
Life, love, salvation
and dating is built with principles you must obey. If you fail to obey them,
you will dance to the consequence of it. You can’t just talk to people as you
like. You can’t just behave any how you like. You can’t do whatsoever that
seems fit for you. There is a principle for you to follow and obey. There is a
pattern to follow and this seminar is design for us to know this pattern.
On
the seventh day…
I want to announce to
you that we are in the season of perfection. The number seven in the prophetic
symbolizes perfection. God is expecting His sons and daughter to grow into
perfection. You must wake up from your laziness and move to work. If you think
you still have time, you are joking. We are in the season of Grace and Grace is
not the absent of discipline.
You can’t afford to
keep living your life like you’ve always done before. This is the season where
you must shift from what you want and embrace God’s design for your life. This
is the season of living according to the capacity of God’s wisdom in you.
We are in the days of
accuracy and this was the knowledge that Vashit lacked. Stay in touch with this
season. Power has changed hand and God has a new demand on His sons and
daughter; that demand is perfection. He is expecting you to grow into maturity.
The Lord is expecting you to move from where you use to be and walk into where
He wants you to be. These are the days
you must not keep overlooking an issues you need to deal with in your life. You
can’t continue this way, if you really want to enjoy the Grace dwelling in this
present season of perfection. It’s time for to shift into maturity. It is time
for you to shift into perfection. It is time for you to improve, adjust and
make major improvement you need to make in your life because this is the season
of perfection. No lapses will be overlooked or ignored.
