    Introduction

    In February of 2022, I wrote that a great turnaround, a divine reversal, pictured by the story of Esther and the Feast of Purim, was coming to our nation. I reshared some of that post yesterday. Six months after I released it, Jane Hamon, a seasoned prophet and teacher, shared in a GH15 post that she had heard something very similar, also from Esther. In light of what is occurring in Iran, her words from 2022 are very timely today. The title of the post is: 

    The Tables Were Turned

    Jane shares:

    I awakened from a dream and heard the spirit of the Lord say, “Tell the body of Christ that it’s time for the hanging of Haman’s ten sons.” I got up and wrote it down. I knew the biblical context, but really had no idea what it fully meant for today, only that it was a time of demarcation in the body of Christ. 

    This statement comes from the book of Esther, at a time when God was releasing judgment and justice in Persia. A wicked leader in the Persian empire,  Haman, had falsely accused the Jewish people of insurrection. As a result, he was allowed to write an evil decree of death and destruction against the Jews (Esther 3:8-9). This decree designated a specific day on which all Jews were to be killed and their property taken (verse 13). 

    The demonic “prince of Persia,” mentioned in Daniel 10:13-20, was no doubt motivating Haman. Never forget that violence implemented by rogue nations throughout the world is demonically orchestrated. And God uses other nations to judge and stop these actions. 

    In Esther, God reversed satan’s plans through a series of sovereign, supernatural events, including favor being given to a Jew named Mordecai and the elevation of his cousin Esther as queen. The victory still required risk and selflessness on Esther’s part, however, as she went before the king uninvited. Her bravery can be seen in her words, “If I perish, I perish” (4:16). But the king granted her favor, and Haman’s lies and plot were exposed, including the fact that he was plotting against the queen herself. The king ordered Haman’s death, sentencing him to be hanged on the gallows he had prepared for Mordecai! I believe that we’re in a season right now where God is giving the enemy enough rope to hang himself. 

    These events in the book of Esther speak to the modern-day church. God’s people are rising up to answer the call, just as Esther did. They picture a church awakening, realizing that we've come to the Kingdom for such a time as this (Esther 4:14). We are learning that we can go before the throne of the King and have His scepter of favor extended to us, enabling us to release decrees that actually shift a nation. This is producing an overturning of demonic decrees and evil plans that satan has set in motion.

    We’re told in Esther 9:24 that satan, through Haman, was trying to generate panic among the Jews. “Haman, son of Hamadatha the Agagite, the archenemy of all the Jews, had schemed to destroy all Jews. He cast the lot to throw them into panic and destroy them.” Fear and panic combat our faith and keep us from taking righteous action. Do not panic! God is up to something. Don’t freak out - God is up to something. He hears our prayers. He hears the decrees. God’s ear is not deaf, and His arm is not too short to save. When Haman tried to throw God’s people into panic and destroy them, God caused the evil scheme to boomerang back on him!

    Purim, the holiday born of these events, is also called the holiday of reversals. About seven years ago, in 2015, the Lord started speaking to me about a season of divine reversals. I believe we are in a season of seeing reversals that God actually set in motion several years ago. 

    And He is by no means finished. Even though Haman had been exposed and hanged on the gallows in chapter 7, there was still a problem: the evil decree against the Jews was still on the books. Esther went before the king to inform him that the decree still needed to be reversed. 

    The king’s response to Esther was: “I give you the authority to write a new decree! Write it in my name, and I’ll seal it with my signet ring.” (My paraphrase) Persian law said that whatever was decreed in the king’s name could not be revoked by another. That is such a great picture of King Jesus and the authority He has given the church! “Write a decree in My name, and I’ll seal it with My signet ring” (See Matthew 16:18-19).

    Esther called cousin Mordecai, and together they wrote a decree, as the king had instructed. The decree authorized the people of God to fight back against all the works of darkness launched against them, and was dispersed throughout the land. Esther 8:17 shares the result: “In each and every province and each and every city, wherever the king’s command and his decree arrived, the Jews celebrated with joy and gladness.”

    The Jews held a holiday feast celebrating these reversals, and Purim was born. 

    Another amazing result of the turnaround in the book of Esther was that, “Many of the people in that land became Jews, for the fear of the Jews and their God had fallen upon them” (Esther 8:17). That is revival! Just the day before, the Jews were in fear of being killed. Now, not only did the people of the land no longer want to kill them, but they wanted to become one of them! That’s amazing! What an incredible turnaround. 

    But God’s great turnaround STILL wasn’t over. Chapter 9 tells us that the ten wicked sons of Haman were killed, hanged on the gallows he had built for Mordecai, just as Haman himself had been. Verse one summarizes the outcome, “This was the very day that the enemies of the Jews had planned to overpower them, but the tables were now turned: the Jews overpowered those who hated them!” (The Message). The reversal was so profound that all the officials in all the provinces, the chief rulers, the governors, and all who attended to the king’s business - the entire government - turned and supported the Jews in defeating their enemies. The fear of the Lord, and of Mordecai, had fallen on them. The demonic prince of Persia fell, and the Prince of Peace arose. 

    I believe we are going to see the fear of the Lord come upon our land, including on government leaders. We will see miraculous reversals in the coming days. Blinders will come off people’s eyes, and they will say, ”We need to be on God’s side…on the side of saving a nation…on the side of revival…on the side of turnaround.”

    Many in the church have been warring spiritually, contending, praying, and decreeing. But these actions are the means, not the end. The goal isn’t just to war spiritually. The goal is to see the answer: awakening, revival, souls saved, the great harvest. 

    The gospel message, from start to finish, is a message of reversal, of seeing curses turned into blessings, of breaking strongholds and bondages. The thief wants to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10), but we are breaking his influence off a people, and off our land. 

    Pray with me:

    Father, thank You for bringing to my remembrance what You said in 2022. Thank You for this word You gave Jane Hamon, encouraging us that great turnarounds were in the works. And thank You for orchestrating current events in the Middle East to take place during Purim, confirming to us that You are involved. The turnaround in the Middle East is not just for Israel and America; it’s also for the Iranian people. 

    We ask You to continue orchestrating the reversal of evil decrees and the liberation of people from demonic oppression. Most of all, we ask that what is occurring in the Middle East be used to open the hearts of millions to Yeshua. We decree, with King Jesus’ authority, that the prince of Persia’s hold over Iran and the Middle East is broken. We prophesy to the winds of heaven, as Ezekiel was also told to do, telling them to blow upon the dry bones of the Middle East. Breathe upon them and give them life. Shower the Middle East with your incredible love and grace. In Yeshua’s name we pray, amen. 

    Our decree:

    We decree that Haman’s plans are failing, and the purposes of God are being fulfilled in the Middle East.

      Esther, Purim, and The War in Iran

      Much is being said in Israel, and in prophetic circles, of the fact that the war with Iran is occurring during Purim, which began last evening. 

      In a recent speech, Prime Minister Netanyahu himself noted that the confrontation with Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and his supporters in Iran was taking place as Jews prepared to mark the anniversary of another war fought against an official from ancient Persia. Netanyahu stated:

      “My brothers and sisters, in two days we will celebrate the holiday of Purim. Two and a half thousand years ago, in ancient Persia, a tyrant rose against us with the very same goal: to destroy our people completely. But Mordecai the Jew and Queen Esther, through their courage and resourcefulness, saved our people. In those days of Purim, the lot fell, and the wicked Haman fell with it.

      “Today as well, on Purim, the lot has fallen, and the evil regime’s end will also come.”(1) 

      I see this timing not only as significant regarding Israel, but also as another indicator of the great turnaround God is bringing to America.

      America’s turnaround began years ago. God is way ahead of time, seeing and declaring the end from the beginning (Isaiah 46:10). God starts at the end, backs up to the beginning, and implements His plan. This means He is never caught by surprise or off-guard. It also means He knows how He will solve problems…before they even manifest!

      Yahweh is not taken aback by the failures of people and nations, knowing they would occur beforehand. When He calls a person - or a nation - to a purpose, God realizes He will have to navigate through their mess-ups, just as He did with Abraham and the nation of Israel. According to Hebrews 11:3, God has already decreed the aligning and realigning of the ages; the correct translation is: “Through faith, we understand that the ages were aligned by the word [declarations] of God…”

      Before Adam’s fall, Jesus was the Lamb, slain from the foundation of the world (Revelation 13:8). That means the Incarnation, the Cross, and Christ’s Resurrection were planned before Adam’s fall ever occurred.

      Be assured that God planned America’s turnaround in advance. He knew the failures and sins our nation would commit before we committed them, and He has also declared our turnaround. Satan’s reactionary plans and schemes are no match for God’s omniscience and foreknowledge.

      This foreknowledge also means God is moving on many fronts, of course. While He is implementing His pre-planned works in America, He is doing so in other nations, in the church, and in individuals, preparing them for His plan. When all is ready, He shifts everything into a phase of convergence: ripe harvest fields; nations positioned; the church equipped; angels assigned.

      All of this is seen in the book of Esther. The Jews’ very existence was threatened when wicked Haman, one of King Ahasuerus’ trusted officials, manipulated the king into issuing a decree for the annihilation of the Jews. Upon learning of Haman’s decree, Esther, a Jewish woman chosen by King Ahasuerus to be his queen, exposed Haman’s plan. She broke protocol to appeal to the king in a courageous attempt to protect her people. The king granted Esther’s request and, instead of the Jews, Haman was executed. After Haman’s decree was reversed, the Feast of Purim was inaugurated.

      The Hebrew word for turnaround is haphak: “to overturn, overthrow, turnaround, transform, be reversed.”(2) Esther 9:1, 22, 25 all speak of the great turnaround that occurred.

      “…when the king’s command and edict were about to be executed, on the day when the enemies of the Jews hoped to gain the mastery over them, 

      it was turned to the contrary so that the Jews themselves gained the mastery over those who hated them.” (v. 1)

      “Because on those days the Jews rid themselves of their enemies, and it was a month which was turned for them from sorrow into gladness and from mourning into a holiday; that they should make them days of feasting and rejoicing....” (v. 22)

      “But when it came to the king’s attention, he commanded by letter that his wicked scheme, which he had devised against the Jews, should return on his own head and that he and his sons should be hanged on the gallows.” (v. 25)

      The Message translation of Esther 9:25 uses a powerful analogy to convey the significance of what transpired: “But when Queen Esther intervened with the king, he gave written orders that the evil scheme that Haman had worked out should boomerang back on his own head.”

      God had planned ahead. Before Haman ever conceived his evil plan to destroy the Jews, God aligned people, events, and time. The book of Esther is an easy and interesting read - check it out. You will find that God orchestrated events, timing, the choosing of a queen, sleep patterns, favor to individuals, the uncovering of evil plans, rescues, and more. The end result was the saving of the nation and the furthering of God's plans on earth.

      I believe that during this time, Holy Spirit is doing again what He did in Esther’s day. He is moving us into convergence and a time of divine reversals! This is a year of great turnaround, when God intervenes powerfully on behalf of His people, and the enemy is overthrown as his plans boomerang back on his own head!

      Of course, the Hebrew word haphak is not only found in the book of Esther, but throughout the Scriptures. Deuteronomy 23:5 uses the word to describe the turning of Balaam’s curse over the Jewish people into a blessing. Jeremiah 31:13 and Isaiah 61:3 use the word in reference to turning mourning into joy.

      This season’s turnaround will occur for individuals, families, regions, and nations. Unrest will certainly continue, and the Scriptures assure us that evil will, as well. But breakthrough and great harvest will also occur; areas of unrest will give way to righteousness—even in the darkest regions. There will be awakenings and revivals in places where they have never existed. We must recognize, however, that the Lord is inviting us to partner with Him in releasing these supernatural boomerangs into the earth.

      When King Ahasuerus extended his scepter over Esther’s life and favor was released, he invited her to write her own decree of victory. The decree was to be written in his name and sealed with his seal so that it could never be reversed. Likewise, the Lord has extended His scepter of grace and favor over us. He is inviting us to exercise His authority by making reversal decrees concerning the very things satan has decreed over our lives in past seasons. Be it sickness, poverty, the pain of divorce, depression, or any other form of oppression, our decrees will reverse them! His word tells us:

      “You will also decree a thing, and it will be established for you; and light will shine on your ways.” (Job 22:28)

      “Behold, I have put My words in your mouth. See, I have appointed you this day over the nations and over the kingdoms, to pluck up and to break down, to destroy and to overthrow, to build and to plant.” (Jeremiah 1:9-10)

      This is a turnaround year! Regardless of how great your hardship, betrayal, sickness, or loss was, I declare that this is your year of breakthrough!

      You will see a reversal of the enemy’s decrees and strategies enacted against you. Stand confidently upon the Lord’s promise of divine intervention; He has been working all things together for your good (Romans 8:28)! Through the adversity of the past, the Lord has been preparing you for the fulfillment of His promises over your life! And from a new place of celebration, victory, and rest, the Lord desires that you partner with Him to help facilitate a righteous turnaround in this nation.

      Like Esther, you were born for such a time as this!

      Pray with me:

      Father, we exalt You as Lord, not only of the nations, but also over time. You change the times and seasons, orchestrating events to align with Your purposes. We declare confidently that You are greater than the forces of evil on the earth, that Your wisdom is higher, and that Your abilities are without measure. We know that You have decreed the turnaround of America and how this will occur, and You have decreed a great outpouring of Your Spirit in our day.

      Just as You turned around Haman’s attempt to destroy the Jewish nation, You will turn around satan’s attempt to destroy Your purposes in our day, as well. We accept the Esther decree: we were born for such a time as this. Help us now to rise to our calling and assignment, partnering with You and Your great plan.

      We proclaim breakthrough in Your people, breakthrough in our nation, and breakthrough on the earth. Give us a turnaround in our government, courts, education, and media. Give us a turnaround in Iran and all of the Middle East. And we confidently ask for this, in Christ’s name, amen.

      Our decree:

      We decree that this is a year of great turnaround!

        My Thoughts Regarding the Iranian War

        This past Saturday (2/28/2026), Israel and the United States launched strategic air attacks on the Iranian government and military. And these attacks are ongoing. They were meticulously planned, strategically timed, amazingly coordinated, and have been tremendously successful. The initial strike by Israel took out the very evil ayatollah and up to 40 of his leaders, making the world a safer place.

        Don’t believe the nonsense that America was dragged into this war by Israel. We were dragged into it by the Iranian leaders. For a variety of reasons, I, like many, have seen the attack on Iran coming for some time. Iran, as part of what many refer to as “the new axis of evil,” along with China, Russia, and North Korea, has become the world’s leading sponsor of terror. I speak, of course, of the Iranian government, not the majority of the Iranian citizens. 

        This cruel, radical Islamist regime has not only spawned terrorism, it has brutally oppressed a once-prosperous Iranian people, turning it into a stronghold of suffering and tyranny. They killed tens of thousands of their own people in the recent protests that took place. Iran has also fomented instability in the Middle East region and throughout the world. 

        With a stated purpose of annihilating Israel and America, the ayatollahs and their followers have demonstrated for almost half a century (since 1979) just how serious they are about this, killing and maiming thousands of Americans and Israelis during that span of time. They tried to assassinate Trump. To have allowed such monsters to possess nuclear weapons would have been as foolish as appeasing Hitler turned out to be. 

        On September 30, 1938, British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain received loud cheers when he returned to London after negotiations in Munich with Adolf Hitler. He and the prime minister of France, Edouard Daladier, agreed to Hitler’s demands that Czechoslovakia cede a portion of its territory, known as the Sudetenland, to Germany. (It is worth noting that although these talks concerned the future of Czechoslovakia, no Czech representative was present!) In return, Hitler assured the Western Allies that he had no further territorial ambitions. On his return, Prime Minister Chamberlain read from a statement he and the German Führer signed that morning, pledging that their new agreement was “symbolic of the desire of our two peoples never to go to war with one another again.”(1) Speaking later that day outside his Office at 10 Downing Street, Chamberlain proclaimed, “I believe it is peace for our time.”(2)

        Chamberlain’s actions received wide acclaim throughout Great Britain and around the world. Following news of the Munich Agreement, an editorial in The New York Times proclaimed, “Let no man say that too high a price has been paid for peace in Europe until he has searched his soul and found himself willing to risk in war the lives of those who are nearest and dearest to him.”(3)

        While war is always to be avoided when possible, the words of Chamberlain and the New York Times proved to be utterly foolish, as Hitler’s forces seized all of Czechoslovakia six months later on March 15, 1939. And less than a year after Chamberlain’s announcement, on September 1, 1939, German troops invaded Poland and started World War II. 

        (Ditto)

        Not everyone was fooled by Hitler and in favor of the appeasement demonstrated by the Munich Agreement. One of its fiercest critics was future British Prime Minister Winston Churchill, who loudly denounced Chamberlain’s deal with Hitler in a speech in the House of Commons. Churchill called the agreement “a total and unmitigated defeat” and warned his audience that “there can never be friendship between the British democracy and the Nazi power, that Power which spurns Christian ethics, which cheers its onward course by a barbarous paganism, which vaunts the spirit of aggression and conquest, which derives strength and perverted pleasure from persecution, and uses, as we have seen, with pitiless brutality the threat of murderous force. That Power cannot ever be the trusted friend of the British democracy.”(4)

        Churchill went on to warn, “And do not suppose that this is the end. This is only the beginning of the reckoning…You were given the choice between war and dishonor. You chose dishonor, and you will have war.”(5) History has shown that war is sometimes inevitable, and that some leaders are so evil, they need capital punishment, not appeasement. The appeasement of Hitler cost the world an estimated 60-75 million lives.(6)

        President Trump and his team, the Israeli government, and other prudent leaders realized that attempting to appease the ayatollah and his evil Iranian regime - as Obama did by sending pallets of cash totaling hundreds of millions(7) - would be as foolish as Chamberlain’s attempted appeasement of Hitler. They knew that signing another treaty with this lying leader - while he continued making his nukes and funding terrorists, as Obama also did - would have been as naive and ridiculous as Chamberlain’s misplaced trust. The ayatollahs and their murderous Iranian regime should have been stopped long ago, not trusted or placated. 

        Trump did the world a favor by ending the reigns of Maduro in Venezuela and Khamenei in Iran. And in doing so, he has reset the entire world order. Russia’s and China’s cheap oil supplies have been hugely impacted, and they now know Trump won’t hesitate to protect America’s interests around the world. They have also seen America’s unequaled military strength demonstrated, and know that he can back up his promises to do so. 

        Another part of the international reset is not just the weakening of Iran, but also the realignment of the entire Middle East. Many leaders there were already coming on board with Trump’s leadership, then Iran foolishly attacked several of them in retaliation for America and Israel’s actions. Almost the entire Middle East is now aligned against Iran. If this trend continues, the realignment of the Middle East will prove to be unprecedented. 

        Finally, there is most definitely a spiritual element to what is occurring in Iran. For months now I have said that the influence of the “prince of Persia” (today’s Iran) is being removed (see Daniel 10:13-20). This principality mentioned in Daniel’s time has been exerting control over the region in our day, as well, through the evil regime of the ayatollahs. This is ending, and will increase the great harvest now occuring there. 

        In conclusion, I certainly do not want to see America drawn into another prolonged war. But I see that which President Trump and Prime Minister Netanyahu are doing as a deterrent to prolonged war. They are cutting off the head of a poisonous snake, putting fear in the hearts of our enemies, protecting our ally Israel, liberating an oppressed people (the Iranians), and though they probably do not realize it, are further opening the region to the gospel. 

        Pray with me:

        Father, we pray:

        • That the great harvest in Iran will continue. 

        • For this to spread to all the Middle East. 

        • For the complete end of the influence of “the prince of Persia”.

        • For the protection of innocent people in the Middle East. 

        • For the protection of Americans here and abroad. 

        • For the freedom of the Iranian people. 

        • For wisdom to be given to President Trump, Prime Minister Netanyahu, and both nations’ military leaders. Give them supernatural insight from on high.

        • For protection over both nations’ leaders, as well as our militaries. 

        • And that the war will end quickly. 

        We also pray for the families of the soldiers who have sacrificed their lives for this cause. May God be close to the brokenhearted and give them peace. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

        Our decree:

        We decree that the strategies of heaven will prevail over the strategies of hell in the Middle East.
