21 Days - Day 9
Day 9:
I am the mom of 5 kids, and I love it. When our babies were little, I knew I had to get good and Godly wisdom and advice on how to raise them. While I’m not a perfect mom, I can say that taking the time to listen and learn impacted my parenting for the good. It was an incredible investment that produced amazing results and great relationships with each of my kids.
A heart that is willing to accept wisdom and correction is a heart prepared to recognize and step into favor.
In Queen Esther's story, we see that before she was queen, Esther was placed in the care of Hegai. For one year, he was in full control of her diet, beauty treatments, royal instruction, and even her wardrobe. This was a requirement for any woman to come into the king’s presence. Hegai desired to present Esther to the king as perfectly as possible.
Once her year of preparation was complete and she was scheduled to go to the king, the Bible says that Esther wanted to take with her only what Hegai suggested. She fully relied on the wisdom and instruction of someone closer to the king, and as a result she was favored and chosen to be queen.
Sometimes favor happens one decision at a time. Positioning yourself to heed wisdom elevates you to new levels. Queen Esther received favor and her role positioned her to become a voice which saved the Jews in the kingdom from total annihilation.
Experience favor by surrounding yourself with godly wisdom and counsel. Decide which voices you will allow to speak to your destiny. Teach your heart to love wisdom and you will find yourself walking in the divine favor of God.

Esther 2:8-9 NIV
When the king’s order and edict had been proclaimed, many young women were brought to the citadel of Susa and put under the care of Hegai. Esther also was taken to the king’s palace and entrusted to Hegai, who had charge of the harem. She pleased him and won his favor. Immediately he provided her with her beauty treatments and special food. He assigned to her seven female attendants selected from the king’s palace and moved her and her attendants into the best place in the harem.
Proverbs 2:2-5 NIV
…turning your ear to wisdom and applying your heart to understanding—indeed, if you call out for insight and cry aloud for understanding, and if you look for it as for silver
and search for it as for hidden treasure, then you will understand the fear of the Lord
and find the knowledge of God.
Luke 2:52 NIV
And Jesus grew in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man.
