DESPERATE SITUATION, DESPERATE ACTION

Prayers
1. Wicked decrees assigned to destroy me and my household, by the power of the Holy Ghost,  backfire in the name of Jesus Christ. 

2. Envious witchcraft,  collapse and die in the name of Jesus Christ. 

3. Arise o Lord,  and fight my battles in the name of Jesus Christ. 

4. Inner strength to crush the battles in my life,  possess me by fire. 

5. Hamans in my life,  hang in your own gallows. 


MESSAGE 
Esther 4:14 (NKJV)
14 For if you remain completely silent at this time, relief and deliverance will arise for the Jews from another place, but you and your father's house will perish.
Esther 4:15 (NKJV)
15 Then Esther told them to reply to Mordecai: 16 “Go, gather all the Jews who are present in Shushan, and fast for me; neither eat nor drink for three days, night or day. My maids and I will fast likewise. And so I will go to the king, which is against the law; and if I perish, I perish!”



Esther found herself in a desperate situation -- if she refused to approach the king for intervention, she would die with the rest of the Jews. If she approached the king uninvited, she could die. 

Either way, death was imminent and inevitable. 

6. Decrees of disgrace, pronounced against my existence, by the blood of Jesus Christ,  I render you null and void in the name of Jesus Christ 

7. Decrees of destruction, pronounced against my existence, by the blood of Jesus Christ,  I render you null and void in the name of Jesus Christ 

8. Decrees of destruction, Pronouncements of dishonour  contrary to my lifting, by the voice of the Lord,  be silenced.


But one of the options seemed more rewarding and heroic. And if it chanced to work,  oh, many lives would be saved. So,  she opted for the choice of approaching the King. 

"...And so I will go to the king, which is against the law; and if I perish, I perish!”

Before approaching the King uninvited, Esther realised that she and the remaining Jews were walking dead. So, no great deal, if they fasted as if they should die -- three days dry fasting and praying. 

At the end of the episode, power changed hands; the decree was changed-- the preys became the predators;  the hunters became the hunted; the pursued became the pursuers. 
Esther 8:10 (NKJV)
10 And he wrote in the name of King Ahasuerus, sealed it with the king's signet ring, and sent letters by couriers on horseback, riding on royal horses bred from swift steeds. 11 By these letters the king permitted the Jews who were in every city to gather together and protect their lives—to destroy, kill, and annihilate all the forces of any people or province that would assault them, both little children and women, and to plunder their possessions,


Fasting dry for 3 days is a desperate action. But some problems won't just bow the knees to the Jesus in your life unless tackled desperately. 

Mark 9:29 (NKJV)
29 So He said to them, “This kind can come out by nothing but prayer and fasting.”

The wrong approach to desperate situations is to allow it to suggest to that you should run far away from God. 

9. Stubborn problems, sending me far away from God, die by fire in the name of Jesus Christ. 



But the approach to desperate situations is to allow it to suggest to that you should run towards God for intervention -- just like Esther and the Jews did. 

NB
Psalms 42:7 (NKJV)
7 Deep calls unto deep

Only desperate action solves desperate situations. The more terrible the situation,  the more drastic the action required to get the desired intervention.

And when you have been tackling your desperate situations desperately and there seems to be no divine intervention yet, it's an indication that your matter is more desperate than you think. Then,  your actions for divine intervention has to be more desperate too. 

10. Powers,  mocking my prayers, die by fire in the name of Jesus Christ. 
11. Covering cast above my prayer altars,  sublime by fire in the name of Jesus Christ. 



"...if I perish, I perish" is a the mindset of a dead man -- dead man feels no pain (of aggressive fasting and praying); dead man got nothing to lose in any deal. 

But remember,  no corn that falls to ground, rots and die; only for it to come out bigger, better and larger. 

12. Arise o God,  and disgrace any power,  challenging you in my life in the name of Jesus Christ 
13. By divine take over,  I pursue my pursuers, I destroy my destroyers in the name of Jesus Christ.
