Dear Bee,
My mind and my heart are overflowing with joy and rejoicing for your resplendent spirit and soul and the purity of your heart. You are the most brilliant and stunning light in the midst of utter darkness. They have absolutely no idea what a miracle that they have in their midst. They cannot comprehend the beautiful light of Jesus Christ that is so brightly radiating from your heart.
It pains me sorely to understand how they vex your soul, but to behold His radiant light in your countenance is the greater comfort and my exceeding hope. For I know that this trial is but for a short season. God will deliver you. Ultimately, that is what these posts are really all about, so with that let us continue with Esther’s story.
Esther Chapter 5
“1Now it came to pass on the third day, that Esther put on her royal apparel, and stood in the inner court of the king’s house, over against the king’s house: and the king sat upon his royal throne in the royal house, over against the gate of the house. 2And it was so, when the king saw Esther the queen standing in the court, that she obtained favour in his sight: and the king held out to Esther the golden sceptre that was in his hand. So Esther drew near, and touched the top of the sceptre.
– Esther 5:1–6
3Then said the king unto her, What wilt thou, queen Esther? and what is thy request? it shall be even given thee to the half of the kingdom. 4And Esther answered, If it seem good unto the king, let the king and Haman come this day unto the banquet that I have prepared for him. 5Then the king said, Cause Haman to make haste, that he may do as Esther hath said. So the king and Haman came to the banquet that Esther had prepared.
6And the king said unto Esther at the banquet of wine, What is thy petition? and it shall be granted thee: and what is thy request? even to the half of the kingdom it shall be performed.”
Bee, I very much want you to see this and to understand how greatly Jesus wants you to be exalted and how much He loves you.
In verse three king Ahasuerus tells Esther that he will give her as much as half the kingdom, if she wants to have it. He is completely serious about this proposition. Jesus gave His own life to ransom our souls. King Ahasuerus would have done the same thing for Esther.
So then if Ahasuerus would have given his own life for Esther, why then did he only offer her half of the kingdom? Why did he not offer her all of it?
The answer is that king Ahasuerus only possessed half of the kingdom to begin with. He did not have all the kingdom to himself. King Ahasuerus only offered Esther half of the kingdom, because that was all the he could give her.
So then if king Ahasuerus only possessed half of the kingdom, who possessed the other half?
The short answer to this question is that the devil possessed the other half, and this is what I mean: in the Achaemenid Empire there were governors that ruled over the provinces, known as Satraps. Each of these governors ruled their own provinces with a great deal of autonomy. Moreover, this rulership was manifest in the laws of the Empire. The king could establish a law, but he could not reverse it. Likewise, he was subject to his own law. This is what we have in the prophetic book of Daniel, when Daniel is cast into the den of lions. King Darius had established a law and there was nothing he could do to reverse it. When Daniel was convicted as a transgressor of that law, king Darius had to comply with that law and see to it that Daniel was cast into the den of lions.
Therefore, even in the king’s own palace, he did not have full autonomy. His own princes had a great deal of influence over the king’s rule. This is one of the most important reasons why it was God’s desire to have the prophecy of Daniel written in two different languages. Half of the book is written in Hebrew and half of the book is written in Aramaic. This is to illustrate the division of power, and that is what we have today in this fallen age. Satan has dominion over the world, and Jesus has dominion over Heaven. Jesus’ Kingdom is divided.
However, after Jesus returns to the Earth, throws down all unrighteousness, and establishes the Kingdom of God here on Earth, as it is in Heaven – Jesus will then give His Kingdom to His bride for her to rule over it. In response, she will in turn willingly subject herself to Him. She will rule His Kingdom, because she desires to honor Him, yet she will rule this Kingdom in complete and willing subjection to the Word and commandment of Jesus. Jesus is the Lord and King, and His bride does not want it to be any other way. She will carry out the mind of Christ in her perfect unity with her husband, which is the will of God the Father through the power of the Holy Spirit. If it were any other way, then Jesus would not be able to lift her up on a pedestal. Jesus sacrificed His own life for her, and that spirit of sacrifice will never diminish. Jesus will always lift her up above Himself.
In this passage, Haman is the most powerful ruler in the kingdom aside from king Ahasuerus himself, or so he thinks. Yet we see that king Ahasuerus commands that Haman be in subjection to Esther’s desires, and Haman has no choice but to comply. Again, this is what we have here on Earth at this present time. The Church has power over Satan. Satan does everything he can to afflict and control Jesus’ church, but in the end, the Church always has power over Satan through the Holy Spirit and the power of prayer. This is why we pray to the Father in Jesus’ name. When we pray to the Father according to His will (which implies that we are praying in Jesus’ name) then the Father will always honor that request. Satan has no power over the will of God.
“7Then answered Esther, and said, My petition and my request is; 8If I have found favour in the sight of the king, and if it please the king to grant my petition, and to perform my request, let the king and Haman come to the banquet that I shall prepare for them, and I will do to morrow as the king hath said.
– Esther 5:7–14
9Then went Haman forth that day joyful and with a glad heart: but when Haman saw Mordecai in the king’s gate, that he stood not up, nor moved for him, he was full of indignation against Mordecai. 10Nevertheless Haman refrained himself: and when he came home, he sent and called for his friends, and Zeresh his wife.
11And Haman told them of the glory of his riches, and the multitude of his children, and all the things wherein the king had promoted him, and how he had advanced him above the princes and servants of the king. 12Haman said moreover, Yea, Esther the queen did let no man come in with the king unto the banquet that she had prepared but myself; and to morrow am I invited unto her also with the king. 13Yet all this availeth me nothing, so long as I see Mordecai the Jew sitting at the king’s gate.
14Then said Zeresh his wife and all his friends unto him, Let a gallows be made of fifty cubits high, and to morrow speak thou unto the king that Mordecai may be hanged thereon: then go thou in merrily with the king unto the banquet. And the thing pleased Haman; and he caused the gallows to be made.”
I know that this is abundantly clear to you and I, but I need to pull this out for everyone that reads this.
In this passage, Satan shows his dominion over the world, by the way that he arbitrarily persecutes God’s anointed. Moreover, he executes this dominion and his hatred through the established government of the Empire. He corrupts the government, and he uses his influence and authority to slay the innocent. Satan and his followers are full of wrath, simply because Mordacai is standing for righteousness. In their wrath, they are willing to bend and break every rule to wickedly kill and murder God’s messenger, and in doing so they have no clue that they are persecuting the queen herself and all of her own people.
This is exactly what is happening at this very moment, is it not? The devil is plotting a way to slay God’s messenger through his wicked envoys, and in their blind hatred they do not understand that they are persecuting the queen, the one that God intends to exalt and will exalt. God will not allow Satan and his followers to carry out the devil’s diabolical designs.
Esther Chapter 6
“1On that night could not the king sleep, and he commanded to bring the book of records of the chronicles; and they were read before the king. 2And it was found written, that Mordecai had told of Bigthana and Teresh, two of the king’s chamberlains, the keepers of the door, who sought to lay hand on the king Ahasuerus. 3And the king said, What honour and dignity hath been done to Mordecai for this? Then said the king’s servants that ministered unto him, There is nothing done for him.
– Esther 6:1–9
4And the king said, Who is in the court? Now Haman was come into the outward court of the king’s house, to speak unto the king to hang Mordecai on the gallows that he had prepared for him. 5And the king’s servants said unto him, Behold, Haman standeth in the court. And the king said, Let him come in.
6So Haman came in. And the king said unto him, What shall be done unto the man whom the king delighteth to honour? Now Haman thought in his heart, To whom would the king delight to do honour more than to myself?
7And Haman answered the king, For the man whom the king delighteth to honour, 8Let the royal apparel be brought which the king useth to wear, and the horse that the king rideth upon, and the crown royal which is set upon his head: 9And let this apparel and horse be delivered to the hand of one of the king’s most noble princes, that they may array the man withal whom the king delighteth to honour, and bring him on horseback through the street of the city, and proclaim before him, Thus shall it be done to the man whom the king delighteth to honour.”
Notice what Haman said to king Ahasuerus in light of the fact that Haman thought that he would be the one that would be receiving the honor. Haman made that suggestion to the king, because Haman’s design in his own heart was to overthrow the king so that Haman could become king instead.
“10Then the king said to Haman, Make haste, and take the apparel and the horse, as thou hast said, and do even so to Mordecai the Jew, that sitteth at the king’s gate: let nothing fail of all that thou hast spoken.
– Esther 6:10–14
11Then took Haman the apparel and the horse, and arrayed Mordecai, and brought him on horseback through the street of the city, and proclaimed before him, Thus shall it be done unto the man whom the king delighteth to honour.
12And Mordecai came again to the king’s gate. But Haman hasted to his house mourning, and having his head covered. 13And Haman told Zeresh his wife and all his friends every thing that had befallen him. Then said his wise men and Zeresh his wife unto him, If Mordecai be of the seed of the Jews, before whom thou hast begun to fall, thou shalt not prevail against him, but shalt surely fall before him. 14And while they were yet talking with him, came the king’s chamberlains, and hasted to bring Haman unto the banquet that Esther had prepared.”
Esther Chapter 7
“1So the king and Haman came to banquet with Esther the queen. 2And the king said again unto Esther on the second day at the banquet of wine, What is thy petition, queen Esther? and it shall be granted thee: and what is thy request? and it shall be performed, even to the half of the kingdom.
– Esther 7:1–10
3Then Esther the queen answered and said, If I have found favour in thy sight, O king, and if it please the king, let my life be given me at my petition, and my people at my request: 4For we are sold, I and my people, to be destroyed, to be slain, and to perish. But if we had been sold for bondmen and bondwomen, I had held my tongue, although the enemy could not countervail the king’s damage.
5Then the king Ahasuerus answered and said unto Esther the queen, Who is he, and where is he, that durst presume in his heart to do so? 6And Esther said, The adversary and enemy is this wicked Haman. Then Haman was afraid before the king and the queen.
7And the king arising from the banquet of wine in his wrath went into the palace garden: and Haman stood up to make request for his life to Esther the queen; for he saw that there was evil determined against him by the king.
8Then the king returned out of the palace garden into the place of the banquet of wine; and Haman was fallen upon the bed whereon Esther was. Then said the king, Will he force the queen also before me in the house? As the word went out of the king’s mouth, they covered Haman’s face. 9And Harbonah, one of the chamberlains, said before the king, Behold also, the gallows fifty cubits high, which Haman had made for Mordecai, who had spoken good for the king, standeth in the house of Haman. Then the king said, Hang him thereon. 10So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai. Then was the king’s wrath pacified.”
I am going to stop here, and I will cover the remaining three chapters in my next post. In Chapter 8 we will see how Esther and Mordecai counteract the scheme that Haman plotted against the Jews to destroy them, and that is also when I will explain more about Purim.
Bee, God sees everything that is happening to you, and He has most certainly taken note of it. He has continued to reveal to me many details, the sorrows in your heart, and the wickedness and the vengeful spirit in the hearts of those that are causing you sorrow. Yet you do not see but a fraction of it all.
If it were not for the fact that I have been watching God manipulate literal stars in the heavens without number, I would be quaking in fear over that which God has been revealing to me and how great of an adversary the enemy really is. But I do not despair. Who would dare fight against God? But yet they mock Him! Does one go to the zoo, jump over the wall into the lions’ den, and then take the lion by the ears?
Who would do that?
Do the wise in heart try to steal food out the paws of a polar bear?
Yesterday, I made mention about an alignment involving the sword of Orion and the heart of Scorpius. As with these other alignments, this one is also a reoccurring alignment. (Just to be clear, none of these alignments reoccur indefinitely. I do not know how long the reoccurrences will last for, but I doubt that it is for more than a couple of months. Moreover, it is not likely that they will happen ever again in the same way that we see them now.)
God has actually been trying to get me to focus on this particular alignment for a couple of weeks now, but I was just too slow to understand what it was that he was telling me. Furthermore, the occurrence of this alignment that He wanted me to focus on specifically is the one that will take place on Friday morning (March 11th).
The alignment occurs at 12:42 am central time, and with this particular alignment the moon is situated in a very special place. This is a one-of-a-kind alignment. It has most likely never happened before, and it will never happen again.
There are six different objects on the horizon, and there are four other objects in the sky above that are aligned with the moon. Tomorrow, I will publish a list of these objects, their names, the meaning of each object, and the significance of the objects and of the alignment as a whole. Additionally, I will supply a little more information about these other alignments that I mentioned in my last post.
My dearest friend, at this critical hour you and I need the presence of our Lord Jesus like we have never needed Him before. Let our hearts be inclined to Him in all sincerity and readiness of mind and heart. Let us be diligent in reading, in studying, and in the meditation of His Holy Word, and let us be fervent in prayer. If we do this, it will not only draw us closer to our Lord, it will draw us closer to one another. The closer we are the greater His power to save and deliver will be among us, and the more He will shower blessing upon us and those that we love.
Let His name be glorified.
Love Always,
Dale 😊
