Divine Reversals

Scripture:

Esther 8:15 "Then Mordecai left the king's presence, wearing a royal robe of blue and white, the great crown of gold, and an outer cloak of fine linen and purple. And the people of Susa celebrated the new decree".

Observation:

Mordecai was the one Haman hated more than anyone. Haman had wanted to have all the Jews killed because of his hatred of Mordecai. Haman built a massive sharpened pole 75 foot high to have Mordecai impaled upon. When God was finished with the situation, Haman was impaled on the pole he built for Mordecai and Mordecai was honored by the king and became one of the most powerful people in the Kingdom.

Application:

Divine reversals are always awesome to watch. God can take a situation that looks totally helpless and turn it around for His glory and your benefit. He is the master of taking what was meant for evil and using it for good! Sometimes we wonder why we have to go through some of the bad times of life, but God always has a plan that will bring Him glory. Sometimes we want the blessing with out the trials, but the trials confirm your trust in the Lord so the blessing can come.

Prayer:

Lord, I love it when You turn situations that look hopeless around. You know we have been in a difficult time financially. I am looking for a divine reversal and for the blessing of God to be poured out on my life. I love You and will worship You with all my heart while I'm waiting for the breakthrough. Turn it around like You are an expert at doing. I will give You all the praise!
