God's word is your answer. You're entering into a supernatural miracle working season. This happens to be one of my favorite it's the feast, which means God's divine appointment of Passover. You say, what is that? Well, we're going to get over to Exodus chapter 12 and it's all about the blood covenant. You see, God had a plan, and you were part of that plan. He had you in his mind, in his heart. That's why the Bible says that we carry eternity in our heart. He had a plan to redeem you before you ever fell. What a great God that we serve.
- [04:03]
Pastor Todd
So let me explain all this to
- [04:05]
Paula White
you and how you can release the abundance of God's goodness and his blessings in your life. You see, God designed seven feasts. You find that in Leviticus, chapter 23, and all throughout the Word of God. These feasts were God's own holy days, with very specific instructions given for observance. Our Father designed these biblical feasts to be opportunities for him to commune with his children in intimacy. He wants to show us a picture of his eternal redemptive purposes on earth. He wants to give you an intimate time with Him. And there are great rewards for those who love to celebrate the appointments that God set up. And you do it voluntarily. It's not you have to do this. This is heaven or hell. It's not about that. Jesus solved the heaven and hell problem when he gave his life, crucified on an old rugged cross, buried in a borrowed tomb. But he rose again on the third day that made him the way, the truth and the life and all that come to him and receive him as Lord and Savior will be saved. Isn't that wonderful? It's God's grace and it's God's mercy. So the feasts are times to deepen your relationship with the Lord. It's a hard issue of desiring closer intimacy and relationship with God. Not out of legalism I have to, but out of Obedience, a hardened attitude that says, I want to. I get to said. These seven feasts, these feast seasons are broken up in three different ones that contain the seven. Passover. Then Pentecost is a standalone. And then we have our fall feasts, Atonement, also called tabernacles. And they represent the three major links between God and his covenant children. So think about it. God is always setting up ways that you can get closer to him. I invite you to these feasts. Feasts of Passover points to our Passover. Feast of unleavened bread points to Jesus, our bread of life. You can find that in John 6. 35. And Feast of First Fruit guides us directly to the Savior. You find that in First Corinthians, chapter 15. These are the Passover seasons. And you can find it in Exodus 12. Read verse 1 through verse 15 for yourself. But I'm going to pick up in verse seven. In verse one through six, they're saying, get this lamb. And it's got to be spotless, it's got to be perfect, because it's obviously a type and shadow of our lamb, Jesus Christ, and that they would slaughter it at twilight. All these details. Read it. But this is what they had to do with the slaughtered lamb in verse seven. Then they are to take some of the blood and put it on the sides and tops of the door frames of the houses where they eat the lambs. Now, remember that Israel and the Israelite, the Jewish people, have been in bondage for 400 years now. And Passover, which is all about your freedom, your redemption, it's all about the blood covenant. Does that sound familiar? You're in bondage, couldn't stop drinking, couldn't stop sleeping around, couldn't stop the drug, couldn't stop the bad habits. Couldn't stop your mind being tormented, could not find any peace. You had generational curses against you, people dying early. And God said, I will provide a way. I will give a spotless lamb my only begotten son. And it breaks through because of the blood. Every demonic assignment against you, your lineage, your family will be broken. So they took this after 400 years. That's a long time. 10 generations. There's a lot of teaching in here. So they took that and they put the blood on the doorposts. And the Bible says the same night they were to eat the meat roasted over the fire, along with the bitter herbs and bread, and made without yeast. Every one of those words are so important to you. Do not eat the meat raw or boil in water, but roast it With a fire with the head, legs and internal organs. Do not leave any of it till morning. If some is left to morning, you must burn it. This is how you are to eat it. With your cloak tucked onto your belt, your sandals on your feet and your staff in your hand. Very important. Eat it in haste. It is the Lord's Passover. Now, I want to go there for you. God says you're used to tilling. You're used to toiling. You're used to making brick and mortar. You've been slaves for 400 years. You've been on the down and out. You've been pressed, you've been pushed to the side. You've been overlooked. But I am about to do a quick work. And overnight the blood covenant that I am establishing with you will bring you out of bondage, out of Egypt, will bring you out. I'm about to deliver you. I don't know who needs deliverance, but God is going to deliver you during this holy pass season because it's all about the blood. It is the blood that sets you free. It is the blood that breaks generational curses. I want you. I want to work with your faith right now because I want you to know the blood has power. What can wash away my sins? Nothing but the blood of Jesus. What can make me whole again? Spirit, soul and body. Why are you settling for anything less? Don't start trying to tear down people who are living great things. The abundant life in Jesus Christ. The same is offered to you through the everlasting blood covenant that was made. And this is what this is all about. That your faith would be there, that your focus would be there, your intimacy would be there. The blood is the greatest thing that we have been given. A blood covenant signed, sealed and delivered by God himself. So look what happens. God says, do this, do this quickly. And on the same night, I will pass through Egypt, strike down every firstborn of both people and animals. I will bring judgment on all the gods of Egypt, for I am the Lord. And you know why they did that? Because of the 10 different plagues that hit the Egyptians, hit the Israelites. They represent the gods of Egypt. And God was saying, just like he is right now. There is no other God. I am God all by myself. I am more than enough. Stop reading the tarot cards. Stop going to the psychic. Stop looking at your horoscope. It's not going to do you any good except for invoke demonic spirits, stop slandering, stop gossiping, stop sinning. It's invoking an open door. For the enemy, the blood is more than enough. And verse 13 he says, the blood will be a sign for you on the houses where you are. And when I see the blood now I want to give you real insight right here, he says, I will pass over you and no destructive plague will touch you. When I strike Egypt. This is over a spotless lamb, which was the best that Israelites and the Jewish people could do. Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, our Messiah, Yeshua became the spotless lamb of God and because of his sacrifice, because of the Passover, he became our Passover. The Bible says we now have complete exoneration, freedom and deliverance. And God says, when I see the blood, I want you to get on your spiritual binoculars right now and I want you to just ask the Lord to open your eyes because the Bible clearly declares that you are cloaked with garments of salvation and robes of righteousness. So when a devil comes to attack you, when the enemy comes, According to John 10:10, to kill, steal and destroy, because that's his purpose. To murder, to kill, to destroy, which means to utterly abolish your purpose, he looks at you and he sees the blood of Jesus. That is amazing. When he comes after me, he sees the blood. So you say, well why am I under attack? Perhaps you brought it on yourself. Maybe it was disobedience. All you have to do is put the blood on those. Repent, father, forgive me. Or if it is a true demonic attack that came in, every door was sealed tight. You're like Job. You're fasting, you're praying, you're dedicating your children. All the doors are tight. Then there is nothing that can touch you, that does not pass through the sovereign hands of God. And what do I tell you about that? It's either a lesson or a blessing. Which always becomes a blessing because God will take, According to Romans 8:28, what the enemy meant for bad and turn it for the good to those who love him and called according to his purpose. So that's what's happening. Think about how horrific this was. They are walking over their dead neighbors bodies. The firstborn, the one that the children had played with. But when it comes to covenant, God is serious about it. He doesn't play around. The blood of Jesus is not a toy. The blood of Jesus saved you, delivers you, protects you, covers you. The blood of Jesus is why you have access into the very holy of holies right now. It is the basis of that blood that gave you a finished work to succeed, to be victorious and to be all that this word promises you to be. And he says this is a day that you are to commemorate. In other words, this isn't a day that you look over lightly. It's to be memorialized. I want you, when your great grandchildren move into the promised land, I want you to, when you, when you climb up the corporate ladder, to remember how you got there, to remember how you got out of the mess you were in for the generations to come. You will celebrate it as a festival to the Lord, a lasting ordinance. And you know what that means if you look at it, truly look at it in the Hebrew, it means forever and ever and ever that you are to celebrate this. It doesn't end with Malachi. It goes all the way through the word of God. If it's important to God, it must be important to us. And like I said, you're entering into one of the most life changing, miracle working seasons of the entire year. And Passover showed that the Lord made a distinction between his people and those who not his people by application of blood on their doors. He's making a distinction. That's my daughter, that's my son. If you touch them, you touch me. If you mess with them, you mess with me. God is making a distinction right now between sheep, goat and wolf nations. You will see those that serve the Lord and there's nothing that you can do to stop the plan of God, except for give your heart to the Lord, serve him joyfully and come on over with us. Because Passover is all about the blood. And you will see signs, wonders and miracles and great, great works of God. Passover is all about the blood. It's about God's redeeming power in the earth. It is about your deliverance. So I want you to mark your calendar right now. Maybe you have a son or daughter that is missing or that is addicted to substance abuse or that is going through mental torment. Put it down. Put their name down. When you send in your prayer request as you honor God on this time, write it down that they are going to be delivered. Put down their freedom, protection by the blood of the lamb. You see, so many people look at my life and think, well, that happened because she's a pastor. That happened because of this or whatever. You know, it's like some special, you know, ranking in heaven and in the kingdom of God. That's not true. I was the mom that laid out over my bed, my son is saved. And he's a pastor now. He's running Story Life Church. And he's phenomenal. He's a Phenom. But for years, he was an addict. He was an atheist. He tells a story, go online, find it. And I would lay out on his bed. I'd take this anointing oil. I'd take communion. I would mark the doors with the oil. I would take communion representing the blood on Passover, I would sow a seed for his deliverance. I would give always do. I still continue to do that because our weapons of warfare, they're not carnal, but they're mighty to the pulling down of strongholds. And I was the mom, not the pastor, not the minister, not whatever, you know, senior advisor, not any title that was given to me. I was the mom that said, not my son. My generation will be blessed. So this Passover, I want you to look. What is it in your life, in your children's life, in your husband's life, your wife's life that needs deliverance? Freedom, Protection by the blood of the lamb. The reality is some people should be dead by now. But it was because of your prayers, because of your obedience, because of your recognition of the blood covenant. And Passover remembered the Israelites Exodus from 400 years of slavery in Egypt and the redemption of a newborn nation, that these people belong to God. It was the blood of the Passover lamb that rescued the Israelites from the destroying angel that struck down every single firstborn in Egypt. Like I said, imagine this. They played together, they went to school together. And they see all of a sudden, where the blood is not honored, there is death and destruction. Where the blood is honored, there is protection, there is provision. It's the blood that saves, it's the blood that delivers. It is the blood of Jesus Christ that rescues and protects and covers you. There are people within your influence that you work with, that you've gone and you've anointed their desk, you've taken communion, you've applied the blood there and they don't even recognize because of your presence. They're still alive because it is the blood that destroys the enemies of God. Let me give you a brief history here. At the end of Genesis, Joseph, remember, he had the coat of many colors. He dies, he had favor. And the people of Israel were protected because he was put in a position. But a new pharaoh, and Pharaoh simply means king, comes on the scene for Egypt. And within several generations, the descendants of Joseph or Israel were ruthlessly enslaved. The Israelites were afflicted, they were oppressed. And this is the center of the Passover narrative. God hates when people are oppressed. He hates when they are Persecuted unjustly. And in Exodus, chapter 1, verse 11 through 14, they put slave masters over them to press them. They had forced Labor. But verse 12 says, the more they were oppressed, the more they multiplied and the more they spread. So the Egyptians came to dread the Israelites. And you know what they did? The more that they were oppressed, the more they were persecuted. They made them work even harder. Pharaoh also practiced Genesis. The enemy would not stop until all were destroyed. But the blood. That's what's going on around you right now. If the enemy had his way, your family will totally fall apart. You would lose your mind. You would be killed prematurely, unexpectedly. But the blood on the door provided protection. It provided an immunity. And Luke 10:19 says, Behold, I give you the power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all, the power of the enemy. And nothing shall by any means hurt you. Why? Because of the blood of Jesus. The covenant principle of Exodus is all about redemption. You're redeemed from the plan of the enemy. You're redeemed from the destruction of the enemy. Remember why Jesus said he came? He didn't say, I came to save Paula. I came to save Hank. I came to save Susie. It's not why he came. He said, I came to destroy the works of the devil. When the works of the devil are destroyed, it is by the blood of Jesus that was shed on that cross that gave you salvation. To be rescued. That's what salvation comes from. A word that means sozo. To be rescued. To be made whole, to be delivered. It is all about redemption. To purchase with his blood and buy you back into the family of God, which has its fullness in being released and redeemed from something. Sin, law, judgment. All the things that bring death to you. And the Bible says in Exodus 12, 12 and 13, against the gods of Egypt, I will execute judgment, for I am the Lord, and when I see the blood, I will pass over you. The Hebrew word for Egypt, of course, means bondage. It's the principle of bondage. To confine, to bind adversary, distress to enclose. So God raises up this man, Moses, to stand in a position to bring deliverance by giving a divine instruction to the children of God. You know what happened? 10 plagues which were the judgment of God on the gods of Egypt. Numbers chapter 33, verse 4. And then Passover was instituted by God. And you see that in chapter 12. Why? Because your deliverance has a date. Don't miss this God moment. God has set up an appointment with you, and you don't want to miss it when God makes an appointment with you. Embrace your moment now, because this feast of Passover demonstrates how all that follows in the Old Testament pointed to the cross and beyond. They illuminate supernatural truths. Blessings all for you today. They were all built on the foundation of God's blood covenant with mankind. And because of the blood, there are
- [22:26]
Pastor Todd
great benefits for you.
- [22:28]
Paula White
So what is this about? In Exodus 12:14, God establishes the Passover to be kept forever. It is the Lord's Passover. And this day shall be unto you for a memorial, and you shall keep it. A feast, a divine appointment to the Lord throughout all your generations. Now, we do not practice Passover like they did in the Old Testament. You don't have to go get a lamb that is spotless. You don't have to go to the Temple Mount, which is not open yet to the Jewish people. You don't have to slay that lamb. What you do have to do, according to Paul, is you're not under the law, you're not under legalism, but you have to honor the blood. How do you honor it? I think in the very least, what you can do is just say, God, maybe I've taken for granted your blood. I didn't even know that that car was sent to kill me. And you kept me. There were so many things that were coming at me and in the spirit, I didn't even know about it. But I want to thank you.
- [23:31]
Pastor Todd
And how do you say thank you to God?
- [23:34]
Paula White
Prayer. Praise. Sometimes I say praise your way through it. Spending time with him, honoring him, acknowledging him, bringing your family together, your friends, giving to him. There are so many different ways that you honor this time. So I want you to mark on your calendar, and I want you to seek the Lord. I mean, sometimes I'll take a feast season and I will fast through it. Sometimes I give extreme. Sometimes I take a day or two off and I just dedicate that to the Lord. Sometimes it's in my service to others. But it cannot be business as usual. It has to be like, I recognize this is a divine appointment, and I will keep it for the sake of myself and my family. And you're not doing it so I can get deliverance. But you do know it is an appointment for your deliverance. And I want you to believe that, that God, who is a faithful God, will apply the blood covenant of Jesus Christ and give you and your family a miracle for all people to see so that you can testify to the goodness of God.

Paula White
This is one of the most exciting life changing, miracle working seasons of the entire year. The Passover season. It's all about the blood. It is your date with deliverance. It's a part of our spiritual heritage that God designed in his own holy days with very specific instructions given for their observance. Deuteronomy 16:16 says, Three times a year all your males and females shall appear before the Lord your God in the place which he chooses. At the feast of Unleavened bread, Passover at the Feast of weeks Pentecost at the Feast of Tabernacles Atonement and they shall not appear before the Lord empty handed. You see, people would say well that's Old Testament, but Passover was carried all the way through. And I'd say to you this ministry takes a lot and when you stand as a giver during this Passover season, you're standing saying thank you for the blood covenant. That's what Paula White Ministry is all about. To preach the Gospel to let people know and experience and receive the precious blood covenant of Jesus Christ. Passover is a foundation pillar of our faith, a set time of celebrating on God's heavenly calendar with the divine appointment for our release from the struggles and bondages of the past and the freedom that only can be found in Christ Jesus through His blood covenant. See God told Moses In Exodus 12:24, you shall observe this thing as an ordinance forever. Passover is truly a celebration of both who Jesus Christ is to us and what he did for us. The work was finished. It was complete. So don't miss this divine appointment. It's only through the power of Jesus Sacrificial Blood on the Cross that you and your family are able to receive salvation, healing, protection, deliverance, restoration and supernatural victory. And if you have the ability to stand with us, I want to ask you to put your faith during this very holy time because I give just to give and I pray there are others. But also know we want to get you some special gifts and thank you for standing with us at Paula White Ministry.

When I was diagnosed, all I wanted to do was get back to work. I wanted to get back to that trajectory that I was on prior to the cancer. I always felt like I had value. I had a place on the team to just be treated with dignity. It means everything.

Paula White
Welcome to Paula Today. I am so excited. God's word is your answer, and I believe that the Lord has positioned you for such a time as this. You're in a divine, supernatural miracle working season, and just like Esther, who knows if you've not come to the kingdom for such a time as this. Now, when I talk about Esther, I'm talking about God putting you in posture, in position for his purpose, his intention, his determination, his will. I'm not speaking gender specific, only to females. This is a person that knows God has a plan. And I'm standing in the gap for my family, for my generation, for my nation. God has put you in a place. The question is, can you discern it? Will you be like Esther and say, hey, if I perish, I perish. But if God before me, who can be against me? Me. Now let's get into the word. You're not going to miss your moment.
- [36:49]
Pastor Todd
So who knows if you've come to the kingdom for such a time as this? Your spirit. Does your spirit ever feel it? Do you ever feel like there's more? There's more than just making money. There's more than just working 9 to 5. There's more than just living a satisfied life. There's more than just doing what they think I should do, called successful. There's more. Anybody's spirit ever fill it? Come on. You know why? Ecclesiastes 3:11. He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has set eternity in the hearts of man. Eternity is in you. It's in the hearts of men. Yet they cannot fathom what God has done from beginning to end. You hear me say it often, but your spirit has a memory of your future that sometimes your mind is struggling to comprehend because you begin to recognize you are a sent person. Sent people act very different. They talk different, they walk different. Everything is different because you recognize. I didn't just show up. I'm not here by coincidence. No such word. But I am sent. Everything is very purposeful. And a sent person recognizes that they are here on an assignment by God with a purpose to fulfill.
- [37:59]
Paula White
Fulfill.
- [38:00]
Pastor Todd
You all have a purpose to fulfill. And sometimes we see something as this is greater or that's blessed. But we're reminded through so much of the word of God how the body all fits together jointly and how every one of us has something very important to do for God. God uses us and he uses us in our full capacity where that his glory can come through our life and show the evidence of who he is. Think about it, Joseph. Think about it, Daniel. Think about it, Esther. So on Purim we remember who is it that will reach for, lay hold of, appear, strike, punish and defeat. For the dominion, the reign, the rule. Because you know, there are two kingdoms that are clashing. And whichever grabs the greater power will be the one that rules, rules and reigns. I believe the kingdom of God is going to rule and reign. I believe the kingdom of God will advance. I believe the kingdom of God will prevail. So as you know Daniel, Esther, Joseph, as you know, Esther, when you know who you are, then you know and can begin to understand what you're called to do. Your why, your purpose, you're so what in life because there has been a work that's been fabricated for you. That's why he says that Jesus of Nazareth has anointed you. It means he's furnished you. He furnishes you with everything you absolutely need. Angela, if you don't have it, you don't need it. While you're always looking outside yourself. Pastor Todd, if you don't have it, you don't need it. Esther, you've been called for such a time as this. So then you have to say, okay, well, where are we in the Kingdom of God? Make this modern day for us, Pastor Paula, because we have to be able to discern the promptings and the movings of the Spirit. The more there is a vacuum of leadership and the more intense things are, the more needed you are. So you're going, man, I can't believe what all is going in the world. You should be going, man, look what's going on in the world. Because that means that you're a solution sent. You're an answer to someone's problem, corporately and individually. And I believe during this time that Deep starts calling Deep, that the Spirit of God is saying, come on, we already know. We've taught this.
- [40:25]
Paula White
I saved this.
- [40:26]
Pastor Todd
I've said this for the last several years. We are living in days of transition. We're in transitional times. And just like I said when I was talking about vision or probably almost any other sermon, I'm going to keep nailing this because you've got to be like a the sons of Issachar to be able to discern the times. I said, I don't know if Jesus is coming back. Jesus doesn't know if he's coming back. I mean, he knows he's coming back. He just doesn't know when he's coming back. Even the Son does not know the hour. Only the Father knows I'm ready, I'm hopeful, I'm expectant. I try to put oil in my lamp at all times and be a wise virgin. I try to live for God the best I can. But what I do know is not prophetic. What I do know is just understanding, like a tribe of Issachar, that we are in Days of transition, which means there's constantly one thing ending and another thing beginning. One era ending, another thing beginning, one thing ending, another thing beginning. Transitional times. David Hoult, the futurist, you know, that wrote the book the Shift of Ages and Times, said that the period, the 20 year period between 2017 and 2037 would be the most transitional time in any period in history. And that we would be living in a transition of any 50 year period, more than any other generation that's ever existed. Shifting. Every leader understands something. It's important when we talk about Esther, because you've got to know you've been
- [42:02]
Paula White
raised up for such a time.
- [42:06]
Pastor Todd
Take hold of what is eternity coming into the earth. Not Chronos, eternity. Such a time as this. So every leader knows that the game or the name to everything going on now is change. Can you move with change? Transitional. So let's see it from a biblical standpoint. Esther, you ready? Say, bring it on. So here we are. When you're in transition, it means you're moving from one place to another, right? The Greek word, as we know, when I go over and over, means metathesis, which is an uprooting of one thing for a laying down of another thing. Meta means change. Thesis is a statement that is laid down, to be argued about. So metathesis implies in translating or picking up of the thing laid down and setting it in an old, altogether new context. Let me put it in a word that you would know. You cannot put new wine in old wine skins because you'll lose both. You'll lose the outpouring of the spirit, but also the structure. So how do we not abandon the foundations of our past while we build on the present and into the future? Esther, transition times, metathesis is removing those things that can be shaken as a created thing in order for those things, things which cannot be shaken, to remain. So when you're in transitional time, there's a metathesis. It means that everything.
- [43:29]
Paula White
Watch.
- [43:30]
Pastor Todd
That can be shaken will be shaken. So that which is not eternal will not remain. How do you know? You haven't been raised up for such a eternal as this. Stay with me. Because, Esther, you can't be shaken. Vashti can. I'm going to get to her in a minute. But Esther, come on. This puts a new confidence. I need somebody to lift your head and say, I'm starting to track with you, Paula. I'm starting to go there. Let everything else be shaken. Let all this, let the economies, let the governments, let this, let the nations. But Esther, eternity cannot be shaken. Where do I carry eternity? I don't carry it in my head. My head. I got to shut this thing down. It'll mess me up.
- [44:14]
Paula White
Doctor.
- [44:15]
Pastor Todd
I carry it in my spirit. The more I am here, the better we all are. The more you are in here, the better your family is. Don't mess up your moves. You'll make a wrong move like that. If you're not in spirit, you'll be with the wrong person that'll set you up and destroy your life in one moment. I'm promising you. It happens that fast. You'll make the wrong move. Out of a money situation, you'll take a job, you'll move to this place. Because you're here and you're not here change everything. And the grace of God is the worst case, is you'll be delayed. Delayed. That's your worst case. So, Esther. Eternity. Let it all shake. It has to shake. Let it all move. It has to move. Because anything built by the hand a man's not going to be able to stand anyway. Only that that has been done by God.
- [45:12]
Paula White
So you're going?
- [45:12]
Pastor Todd
Well, why are these people leaving my life? They have to. You've been trying to hold on to it. You built that. God didn't built it. You brought it together.
- [45:20]
Paula White
God didn't bring it together.
- [45:24]
Pastor Todd
Stop looking with this.
- [45:25]
Paula White
Here. You ready?
- [45:28]
Pastor Todd
Nothing caught God by surprise. Esther.
- [45:34]

Thank you so much for being a giver to Paula White Ministry. I believe that you can make a huge difference when you partner with Paula White Ministry. You not only help us preach the gospel around the world, literally in a potential 1.9 billion homes, but also all of our humanitarian standing with Israel. The great works that we do here stateside and throughout this nation, feeding the hungry, clothing the naked, literally, I mean, to the tune of millions and millions of dollars giving single moms and domestic violence and safe houses and all types of situations, furniture. Think about a child that doesn't have a bed to sleep on and does because of your partner. Thank you so much for making a difference. If you're not a partner with Paula White Ministry, please pray about becoming one. Now, let's get back into the word. You have been positioned for such a time as this.
- [47:32]
Pastor Todd
You ready? Nothing caught God by surprise, Esther. So let's keep going with it. What looks like chaos on the surface actually has that pattern that moves towards an intended end. It's chaology. You guys know it. You find it in Genesis, chapter one. The spirit of God moved. God spoke. And what happens? God always starts out of chaos to bring cosmos order. So if we're in days of transition, we're leaving one thing we're coming into new to come into the order of God that he has for that moment, that season, that eternity. Guess what's happening? This. Anybody with me with this? But you're trying to go stable. Stable? But my mind likes to peace. You have peace. It doesn't come from your mind. It comes from your spirit. But I like joy and have joy, but. But I like to know the future. You know a little bit about it. You know the very end of it. This is called faith.
- [48:26]
Paula White
This is called that.
- [48:27]
Pastor Todd
The just shall live by faith. The just shall live by faith. I thought they live by comfort. No, I thought they lived by a surety. No. Hey, Elijah, I've got another mission trip for you. Go down to that brook. Okay. The brook dried up. Well, I thought you sent me there, God. I did. Because I'm gonna use something that is a scavenger and the most unlikely source to resource you. Because I need you to know, on the mountaintop in the valley, Jezebel chasing you in the cave at the brook, that I am your source, I am your provider, I am your God, I am your deliverer. So talk to me, Esther.
- [49:13]
Paula White
Ready?
- [49:14]
Pastor Todd
So what looks like a mess actually always has a message. It's never that setback. It's a setup. Micah, chapter seven, verse eight. You already know it. Rejoice not against me, O my enemy. Don't throw your party yet. See, you better let Haman know. Watch out, you might have the ring. I'll get there. You might have the goods from the king, but I'm telling you, watch out, don't throw the party yet, because my God still has the final word. Rejoice not yet, oh my enemy. When I fall. Not if, when, when, when, when. When I go down. That's all part of the turbulence. It's all part of it. When I go down, I shall arise again. When I sit in darkness, the Lord shall be light unto me. Come on. And somebody get a word in their spirit. Because right now it looks dark in your family, dark in your finances, dark in the world, dark in whatever you're walking into. But God says, my light shall shine again when you fall. Come on. You will arise. You'll come into your being is what arise means. So here we go. You come into your being. That's because you know who you are. And this is where you embrace radical disorientation, chaos, in order to experience a creative transformation. Cosmos, the order and the plan of God. Somebody look at your neighbor. Say, I'm not being left out. It's my time. Purim, Purim, Purim. Come on. Understand the principles.
- [50:35]
Paula White
So what do you do, Esther?
- [50:36]
Pastor Todd
You draw near. See, the reaction in the natural is what go away. But what do you do? You've got to draw near. You've got to realize there are two kinds of people. And during any kind of shaking, the Bible reveals these kinds. We know there's tares, there's wheat, right? And only the Lord of the harvest is going to be able to know when the winds blow, when the storm comes. There's two types of foundations. A firm one. Come on. There's sand and there's a rock. There's two kinds of people. Those who draw near and those who draw back. You'll never know what's in you until you get under the pressure. You'll never know if you're going to draw near. You're going to draw back. You think, man, I'm going to walk. Walk through that bold and make it until it happens to you. And only when that pressure gets on you, do you know how you're going to respond. Is it going to be like Saul, out of compulsion?
- [51:31]
Paula White
You'll be reactive?
- [51:32]
Pastor Todd
Or like David, you'll encourage yourself and you'll fasten. Hold on to something that's deep within you, that anchors you through every storm, all the turbulence, all the agitation. Strong, eternal, sent, purpose, plan, sovereign trust, hope. God, we got this. I don't need a lot of adjectives, nouns, verbs, but I just named the ones I need. We got this. But don't you know every single day, Ask people close to me. Ask Pastor Todd, ask John. Every single day I have something happen that's enough to rock my faith almost every day. I mean, not just make it a bad day. I mean rock my faith. God, hope, faith, trust, believe. Such a time as this. Purpose, alignment, sovereignty. Never step into a day that God has not already ordained. God ordained it. The devil doesn't get that pleasure of ordaining my days. God's ordained the melter. Devil can't. He doesn't have that kind of power over you. He didn't do this.
- [52:52]
Paula White
Nope.
- [52:53]
Pastor Todd
Ordained by God. If I have a face to face with Satan. Bring it on. What you trying to do here? God, what are you doing? You've been called for such a time as this.
- [53:05]
Spreaker Podcast Announcer
This.
- [53:05]
Pastor Todd
She drew near. And we'll get to it. The Hebrews word means this. There are two kinds of people that God reveals in times of transition. It's actually found in the book of Hebrews. Hebrews is all about. It's when the children of Israel provoked God during the days of perdition. Because they drew back. They drew back. So they provoked God and they died. That's not a good ending, by the way. Drawing back is not a good ending. You want to draw near. What do I mean? The Hebrews means a bar to cross over. The word Hebrews, it means transition, rendered passed over, come over, overcome, or get to the other side. So the whole. The very word Hebrews means to cross over, to get to the other side. Now, there are four basic aspects that carries movement and relationship, one to another. To draw near, to get to the other side, to cross over, to transition. It meant this. When you draw near, it's four basic aspects. Number one, it meant to go beyond or further. Number two, it speaks of movement between two places. It's a metaphor which means to exceed. And then it carried this moral, spiritual meaning to transgression. Hebrews chapter nine or ten. Excuse me. Hebrews chapter ten, verse 19 through 39 defines these two kinds of people. One, one, those who draw near, full of faith and an assurance of faith. And those who draw back into perdition and they shrink back and they're destroyed. Look at somebody say, come on, draw near. Draw near. Draw near. Now, why did they draw back? Anybody want to tell me why they drew back?
- [54:42]
Paula White
Fear.
- [54:43]
Pastor Todd
That's an absolute reason. But there was something particular that was happening in the book of Hebrews that made them draw back. Persecution. Fear was a result of it. Persecution. When you start getting under persecution, it's not like being a Christian in the 90s. It's different. Start talking a whole lot about your Jesus. Take a real stand. It's not quite as popular. In fact, there are people losing their lives all over the world for standing for Christ. Make me really get on this, Esther. Because persecution, the chaos, they couldn't handle the pressure. Not realizing it was the very pressure that was producing greater faith and perseverance and ultimately the promise of God. Pressure's working for you, not against you. Pressure's working for you and not against you. I said something on Sunday. You're bigger than the storm. The Holy Spirit just brought it to me again. You're bigger than the storm. You're bigger than the storm. Come on, Esther. You're shaking because you're like, what's going on? You're bigger than the storm. This is not the day to draw back, but it's a day, as Esther prophetically demonstrated, to draw near it was a matter of life and death. You ready? So, you all ready? I'm looking for my Esther. Now. Now I'm just getting down to everybody who's listening, she's looking to. God's looking, looking for that person who's been sent for such a time as this, that's not living their own life, but living for Jesus Christ, going for the kingdom of God. It's time you draw near. The spirit of Haman is a destroying spirit that the only thing it knows is the blood of Jesus that is inside you and the power of God. And you're sitting there trying to compromise with it. I don't know if it's really a baby. I don't know if I should really come to church. What do you know? And if you don't know, it's okay. Take time and figure it out. But figure it out. Figure it out. Figure it out. Figure it out. If not raised up for such a time as this, when you walk in eternity, Esther, I promise you, you'll strike, punish and defeat the enemy. So pure room is about deliverance. It's about a joyous occasion to remember what God's done. But I also think it's a monumental moment to remind you, to remind me that there's no such thing as ordinary moments. You're chosen. You're a child of God. There's no such thing as an ordinary moment. There's no such thing as just an ordinary moment. Every one of you had to be here tonight to hear this word, to activate you and your purpose. Maybe it's to bring deliverance to your family. Maybe it's to bring deliverance to a nation. Maybe it's to bring deliverance to people. But I can tell you one thing. It's not to sit back cowardly because Haman is raging and plotting, making plans to destroy God's people. God has called you for such a time as this.
- [58:24]
Paula White
When I talk to you about Esther, I'm talking from a prophetic place of power on the position of Esther, not gender specific, but that God has a posture, a position, a place for you. And just like Esther and like myself, you are also sent to the kingdom for such a time as this. This is a day of deliverance and on this day I want to pray along with my ministry, my staff and agree with you for your deliverance, your freedom from the forces of darkness, and also specific declarations of favor over you, just like Esther. Now here's what God is saying in this prophetic season, if you hold your peace, if you do not participate, if you hold back now, if you miss this moment, there will still be enlargement and deliverance for God's people and his purposes. But God can't use you. He doesn't use spectators, he uses participators. You have to partner with God. Don't miss your moment. Let anything holding you back be broken off you. Right now, in Jesus name you are in position and God is open, opening doors that no man can shut. For such a time as this, I want you to go forward boldly into your destiny in the courage and in the spirit of Esther. So what are you going to do? Honor God. Whatever you can do, please do so. I want to hold your response in my hands, physically touch your prayer request in my hands. I want to intercede for you as I lift it up to God. Get ready as you discover the spirit of Esther for your life. God wants to use you because you make all the difference and God is putting you in position. Activate favor for your life Right now,
