Champions align themselves with the right company. Esther joined hearts with Hegai, the custodian of the women. The minute Hegai met her, he liked her. Esther became his "project," teaching her the in's and out's of palace life.
Champions also walk in favor. We see favor on Esther's life as she received special treatment, extra blessings, and privileges. Her whole life may not have been that way, but all of a sudden, things started to happen to her benefit.
As well, champions have to be willing to change. We can not expect to become a champion, walk like a champion, or even live like one unless we make changes in our lives. Esther went through changes of location, of internal thinking, of environment, and of dress, clothes, and perfumes. She also had to change her mental image of herself from an orphan to a queen. Can you imagine the wrestling that went on in her heart and mind as God worked these changes in her?
Good company.....favor.....willingness to change.....how do any of these championship qualities ring true with you and your experiences?
