Tonight begins the Jewish holiday of Purim when we celebrate Queen Esther’s victory over Haman’s evil plot to destroy the Jews in the Book of Esther.

When all of the Jews were to be executed, Mordecai said to Esther...

If you keep quiet at a time like this, deliverance and relief for the Jews will arise from some other place, but you and your relatives will die. Who knows if perhaps you were made queen for just such a time as this? (Esther 4:14, NLT) 

I see Esther as a type of the Gentile believer. Let me explain.

• Esther was a beautiful virgin. When we confess our sins we are as clean and as righteous as a virgin and beautiful in God’s sight.

• Esther was adopted into a Jewish family. Gentile believers are also adopted into a Jewish family.

• Esther had favor with the king. We walk in divine favor!

Just as Esther went before the king on behalf of the Jewish people, we can go before the King of Kings to intercede for their salvation!

God is telling me THIS YEAR, with the release of the Golden Global Glory, the harvest of souls will be “incalculable”!
