I had a quick vision but it was very detailed. It started with statue-like forms of lions formed together, facing left, coming like a train from the right to the left and I was watching this unfold. They were very big compared to me and were silver in color. The forms looked like what you would see as a bracelet, very smooth outside. When the "train" stopped to my left, the line continued toward my right going far back. Then it was like the figures of lions melted into lionesses. The "train" looked like silver molds but they could have been frozen. The lions looked more like metal on the "train".
I want to pause here and somehow convey the feeling that these lionesses gave me. I knew by the Spirit I had to be in the back because anything in the front of them would have been devoured. Lions are golden in color. These lionesses were black with red outlines. Their faces were more like a lion but they did not have manes, they were lionesses. They were kind of pacing ready to go, ready for something. That was the end of the vision. There was not a battle for the battle had already been won. These lionesses didn't have to battle because nothing was strong enough to even stand before them [Esther 9:2].
Somehow, unbeknowest to women, we have formed a train. It's a very strong train where we are linked together in the spirit realm. We have been molded to such perfection that we're smooth like a silver lion molding. We have been in training. Now the train has stopped. God is taking us out of training mode and into the battle. These lionesses were black. They had been burned in the fire. These women have already battled and won. Their red outlines show the hardships. The tips of the lionesses tails were golden I remember that but their bodies were black. Your very presence sends anything in your path into panic mode. Your enemies flee. As a 'good' person, or one who loves Jesus, even I did not want to get near these lionesses. Though they were good, they had been prepared to take the enemy out. It was not safe to be near them.
The good news is that women, you have already won the battle. You've been burned and purified in the fire. If you feel like you have not been through trials, I would presume to say you are not on this train. Purified women: your presence equates to victory. The bad news is that the battle is not over. There is some work that needs to be done.
To better help me explain this, I refer to the book of Esther. King Ahasuerus repeatedly asked Esther "What is your request? It shall be done." He said this before Haman was killed, he said this to her after Haman's 10 sons were killed, after the 500 men were killed. My point is- first Haman was killed, his 10 sons, and 500 enemies of the Jews. It was still necessary for those 10 sons to be hanged on the gallows. There were also 300 more enemies of God's people that needed to be killed. BUT THE KING SAID "IT SHALL BE DONE." Therefore, though those things had to play out, it was alreay done. The king said so.
So it is with these lionesses. You can see the love of God in this. God did not put the lionesses in a battle that could be lost. Rather He purified them and burnt them to a beautiful but strong black with red outline. They are the hot, burning ones. They had already won their battle but now it's time for them to take out the enemy completely. What is your request? It shall be done.
My daily devotional for May 2, 2024, I wrote a Song of Deliverance that came out of the meaning of each of Haman's sons names. It goes like this:
"My enemies are given to me by prayer. God is my rain maker; He entices to gather for me fruitfulness. God is my refuge. He leads me to flowering fields but is my strength as a yearling bull in a fight. His excellence gives me rest and my freedom. I am strong as the wind."
I encourage you to write your requests down. God has been training you, remember? Your specific requests are necessary to win. We are all lined up on this battlefield, hot off the train, and all of us getting our requests met is what is going to give us this beautiful land the Jewish people had at the end of the book of Esther.
For the lions, or the men out there: remember Mordecai became just as powerful as the king. Mordecai was given his signet ring. Esther was the king's wife but Mordecai had the official power.
