Weekly Watch Focus: Purim—Deliverance of God's People
FRIDAY, Mar 10, 2017—The Bible marks this time of the year as the Feast of Purim (March 12, 2017) a memorial to the great deliverance which God wrought for His people in the time of Esther (Esther 9). Even today, Iran threatens to destroy Israel, making ready their nuclear weapons. The spirit of Haman is alive today threatening Jews and also Christians. Bind back the spirit of Haman and antichrist. Let us bless Israel and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. May we as a nation always be true friends of Israel and an undivided Jerusalem. Let us rejoice in the mighty God who is more than able to deliver and protect His people.
Purim is a time to praise the Lord who delivers His people in a mighty way. Let us specifically therefore pray for individuals and families who need a great deliverance and supernatural healing. For the Jewish people, Purim is also a specific time set aside for extra laughter and joy, rejoicing in the defeat of the enemies of the God of Israel. May we experience a fresh infilling of the Spirit who fills our mouths with laughter and our tongues with joyful singing (Psalm 126:1-2).
Esther 4:14, “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. Yet who knows whether you have come to the kingdom for such a time as this?”
Gen 12:3, “I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse him who curses you; and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.”
Psalm 126:1-2, “When the Lord brought back the captivity of Zion, we were like those who dream. Then our mouth was filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing. Then they said among the nations, ‘The Lord has done great things for them.’”
Psalm 107:20, “He sent His word and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions.”
Exod. 15:6, “Your right hand, O Lord, has become glorious in power;
Your right hand, O Lord, has dashed the enemy in pieces.”
