Becoming Whole Rochelle Frazier Foster

Could it be that Esther is more than the story of an orphan who became queen to save her people?

I believe God intended Esther's life to represent the transformation that He desires for all of His daughters. Because of the fall and subsequent removal from the garden, we were embedded with a sense of not belonging. Even if we had perfect parents, we can be driven by an orphan spirit that longs to be accepted and causes us to miss our true identity, believing we are unworthy to be chosen. This same spirit will cause us to live masked, (veiled) fearing that our authentic self, if exposed, would not be enough, which ultimately leads to further rejection and striving, or performing, to succeed and be seen. It sabotages the influence of our voices, causing us to shrink back rather than step up.

I believe God is calling out women today to walk in an Esther Anointing:
These women will walk in divine favor, shifting atmospheres in their homes, communities, and even nations.
They will be wrapped in an infectious love of the Father.
'Fiercely loved' will be their new identity.
They will have voices of influence and authority, and begin reclaiming territory for the Kingdom.
They will carry a boldness by the empowering of the Holy Spirit that will cause others to rise with them.

To release her, we must tend to the--the wounded soul--that keeps us focused on our pain and trauma instead of stepping into the royal position before us.
