Lead the Way
“Own It”
Esther 3-4

Xerxes – powerful king of Persia
Esther – orphan who becomes queen  
Mordecai – trusted older cousin
Haman – cunning villain 

Esther 3:1-11

God’s plans always prevail over the enemy’s plans.

Haman – A bad example  
	Being controlling instead of collaborating 
	Reacting vs. responding to situations 
	Not owning up to mistakes 

Esther 4:1-17

Mordecai: “For such a time as this.”   
	This is not a coincidence, but God’s providence in your life. 

Esther – A good example  

Owning it…
	Accept responsibility, no matter the cost 
	Embrace your kingdom assignment
		God has you where He has you for a reason
		Own your role
	Plan for success by putting God first
		Begin with God
		Plan carefully and clearly
	Surround yourself with a good team

Where is God calling you to own it in your life?
