It’s a Boomerang Season: The Hanging of Haman’s 10 Sons
by Jane Hamon
God’s Voice is one of the most powerful forces in the universe. By it the heavens and the earth were formed. Throughout history, God’s voice has shifted times and seasons, formed covenants, given instructions for living and strategies for warfare. We are living in precarious times when it is imperative that God’s people hear His Voice each day to secure our future and execute God’s plans in the earth. (John 10:27)
Authority Over Chaos
In August of 2020 I heard the Lord say three things: 1) we were coming into a season where chaos would increase; 2) that God would use the chaos to uncover and expose the corrupt and hidden things and 3) I heard Him say three times,”the God of peace is rising.” Of course this comes from Romans 16:20, “And the God of Peace will soon crush Satan underneath your feet.” I felt this was a promise the the next season.
It made me think of Isaiah 9:6 speaking of Christ as the Prince of Peace. The word Prince in Hebrew means “one who wrestles, wars, governs and rules”. Shalom means peace, tranquility, wholeness, completion, etc. But that week I was speaking with one of my Bible College professors who said he had just met with rabbinical scholars who look past the word to the word pictures associated with the Hebrew letters that form the word. They said these pictures communicate the deeper meaning of shalom as “Peace comes when you destroy the authority of chaos!” That is our assignment in this hour! I knew then that troubled times were coming and that the Ekklesia would need to take on our governmental mantle to destroy the authority of the dragon of chaos and confusion against our nation & the nations of the earth. (See Isaiah 51)
After the contentious election, on January 4, 2021, I heard the Lord say, “tell the people (who are praying) that I am up to something.” I had the feeling we weren’t going to like the short term response to our prayers, however, God was playing the long game in bringing America into position for the greatest awakening and revival in history.
The Hanging of Haman’s 10 Sons
On June 15, 2022 I was awakened at 3:30 in the morning to the Voice of the Lord saying, “You have entered the season of the hanging of Haman’s 10 sons.” (See Esther 9) He was declaring “enough is enough” of the tactics of the enemy seeming to prevail over cities and nations. He was giving our enemy, (the devil, and all those conspiring with him), enough rope to hang themselves. The very gallows that were being built for the righteous were going to be used to bring exposure and judgment to those who had aligned themselves against God and against His called, anointed and appointed ones in the earth. The decrees of the enemy that have been released against the righteous to bring death and destruction are boomeranging back on his own head. It’s been a divine set up. God has not lost control for a second! The curse is being turned to a blessing for us and everything the enemy meant against us for evil is being turned for our good. (Deut 23:5; Genesis 50:20). Instead of disgrace, God’s people and His divine purposes are coming into one of the greatest times of favor and prophetic fulfillment ever seen. We will see and experience this boomerang on a personal, corporate and even national level in the coming days.
Esther 9:25 says, “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. He and his sons were hanged on the gallows. MSG
All of this, of course, refers to the epic showdown between Haman and God’s people in the Book of Esther. I began my deep study of Esther seven years ago when the Lord spoke to me that we were coming into a time of “Divine Reversal”, a central theme of Esther’s story. That very day our grandson was diagnosed with a condition that was labeled “irreversible” yet because of the decree of the Lord he was completely healed and made whole. Since then we have seen many miracles in which physical infirmities and conditions have been reversed, prodigals brought home, certain financial disasters averted, blind eyes opened, the dead raised, on and on as God has orchestrated reversals on every level. We are now in the seventh year since that initial decree, a period during which we also saw unprecedented corruption and evil go seemingly unchallenged. But remember I heard the Lord say in January of 2021, “Tell the people I am up to something!” This seventh year indicates a time of covenant, fulness, wholeness, completion and perfection of God’s plans. There are big things coming!
One week after hearing the Lord speak about this new season of reversals and judgment on Haman’s 10 sons, Roe vs. Wade was overturned, ending the codification of abortion on a national level and breaking a curse built on a national blood altar. Though the fight for the lives of the unborn is not over, June 24th, 2022 represented an important reversal of a decree that has empowered hell and thwarted efforts in our nation to bring change. Spiritual forces which have empowered individuals to do and to legislate wickedness are being disempowered. We will see some shaken to the core at the absence of these illegitimate powers working in their lives.
Before looking at the significance of Haman’s 10 sons it is important to understand that Esther’s story is not a Cinderella story about an orphaned Jewish girl who marries a king. The more I read it, the more I realize it was a prophetic story regarding Jesus’ Bride, the Church, His Ekklesia who has been positioned, prepared and promoted to break demonic decrees and shift nations through her relationship with Mordecai (Holy Spirit) and the things they decree together. Mordecai gave Esther spiritual intelligence, or discernment, about the enemy’s schemes and challenged her to rise up to make a difference. Esther is a reformation story about “the king” removing the crown from the Vashti church, one that may look beautiful and successful externally, but has a form but no power, and disobeys the orders of the king. Instead God has sought for an Esther church, an Ekklesia, to place the crown of favor upon; one who is willing to count the cost and lay down her life for a higher purpose to intercede to set nations and generations free; one who is willing to legislate God’s plans and purposes into the earth; one who is willing to live on a mission and accomplish spiritual assignments. (Esther 4)
The Spirit of Robbery
Haman is referred to as the son of Hammedatha, the Agagite. Hammedatha means “double” and in this case I believe represents double wickedness and an anti-Christ agenda. He identifies as a descendant of Agag, the Amalekite king whom Saul spared, which cost him the throne because of disobedience. The Amalekites were the archenemies of the Jews. Their name means “plunderer, blood licker” and they can be seen throughout scripture warring against God’s people as a spirit of robbery. They truly are a representation of the thief who comes to rob, kill and destroy (John 10:10).
In Exodus 17 we see the first battle Israel ever fought as an army when the Amalekites attacked them in Rephadim, meaning “resting place.” The first thing the enemy tries to rob is our peace and positioning with God. Then we see this spirit of robbery come after Israel’s prosperity, robbing their threshing floors in the days of Gideon or robbing David’s family and possessions at Ziklag (Judges 6; I Samuel 30). In the story of Haman’s decree we see this same spirit attempting to cut off and rob the posterity of God’s people, with an assignment to take out a nation and a generation. Finally, we see it was these same fearsome Amalekites that intimidated Israel keeping them from crossing into their promised land in Numbers 13, and that kept Saul from obeying God thereby robbing them all of their prophetic promise and divine destiny (I Samuel 15).
It’s clear there has been a spirit of robbery loosed against God’s people and against nations. The Amalekites come from the lineage of Esau, who throughout history always warred against the seed: the seeds of prosperity, our generational seed and even the seeds of destiny deposited within a people and a nation. God is decreeing “enough is enough” to this spirit of robbery and is empowering His Bride, His Ekklesia, to rise up and take it all back! Like God spoke to David at Ziklag, our mandate it to pursue, to overtake and to recover all! (I Sam 30:8).
If you came home to discover your house had been robbed one of the first things you should do is contact the authorities and file a robbery report to delineate what has been stolen. As the Ekklesia arises and recognizes what has been stolen from us, personally, corporately and from our nation, we must write decrees and serve the enemy notice. A number of years ago, Alex Florence, one of our Christian International ministers saw the Lord write the word “replevin” in the air above his head. He looked it up and it means, “an edict or decree by a judge authorizing an individual to take back anything wrongfully taken or stolen from him.” God is issuing writs of replevin authorizing us to pursue, overtake and recover all and it begins with us making decrees and serving notice on the enemy.
In Esther, Haman’s plot was uncovered and he was hung on the gallows he built for Mordecai, yet his decree of destruction was still in place and his sons and co-conspirators still planned on the Jews’ annihilation. So Esther goes before the king and he stretches out his scepter of favor to her and tells her to ask for what she wants. She tells him of Haman’s decree to destroy her people. He then authorizes her to write a new decree that will supersede Haman’s decree telling her you yourself write a decree, in the king’s name and seal it with the king’s signet ring, for whatever is written in the king’s name and sealed with his signet ring cannot be reversed. (Esther 8:8)
Revival Released
Esther and Mordecai then wrote a decree authorizing the Jews to fight back and defend themselves against their enemy and against any who would attack or try to rob from them. Esther 8:17 then tells us, “And in every province and city, wherever the king’s command and decree came, the Jews had joy and gladness, a feast and a holiday. Then many of the people of the land became Jews, because fear of the Jews fell upon them.” Instead of mourning, God’s people were dancing and their joy and gladness, partnered with the fear of the Lord caused many people in that foreign, pagan land to become Jews. What does this signify? Revival! Many are awakening to the evil and corruption and deciding to cry out and come to the Lord. Revival is on the way!
The Hanging of Haman’s 10 Sons
Esther 9:1 tells us, “on the day the enemy of the Jews hoped to have power over them the reverse occurred and God gave the Jews power over those who hated them.” A decree turned the tables on the enemy but the Jews still had to fight to defend themselves and to enforce the decree. It was a time of a terrible slaughter of God’s enemies and great upheaval. It was a time of warfare during which Haman’s 10 sons were killed. As believers in Christ we do not fight against people (flesh and blood) but we do fight battles through prayers, decrees and the preaching of righteousness against spiritual forces that would like to see us wiped out. We must be bold and courageous and allow our voices to defeat the decrees of darkness. This will be a time of intense spiritual warfare for the people of God, but as we position ourselves properly through prayer, God Himself will arise and fight for us!
The names of Haman’s ten sons are given in Persian, however, several Rabbi’s researched the significance of those names which are further indicators of the character and nature of this Haman death assignment against God’s people and God’s purposes. I believe they each represent a spirit that robs from us and conspires against God’s purpose and destiny in the earth over individuals, churches, businesses and nations. These names represent: spirits of religion, antichrist empowered by Leviathan and pride, witchcraft, perversion rooted in Jezebel, the political spirit of division, the spirit of racism (including prejudice and anti-semitism, injustice), a spirit of slumber, the spirit of Babel with unified rebellion and the mob mentality, a spirits of accusation, fear and intimidation. And to each of these works of darkness and demonic forces which have empowered robbery and rebellion against God, God declares “Woe! Your time is up! Enough is enough!!”
After Haman’s co-conspirators were removed, Esther petitioned the king once again and asked for their bodies to be hung. Why? It was a declaration that the anti-Christ reign of Haman, and all his corruption, robbery, wickedness and evil, had come to an end. They were utterly defeated! All their evil plans boomeranged back on their own heads! We will see this in the spirit and we will see this in the news cycle. Enough is enough!
Esther 9:24-26 says, “Haman son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, the archenemy of all Jews, had schemed to destroy all Jews. He had cast the pur (the lot) to throw them into a panic and destroy them. 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. He and his sons were hanged on the gallows. MSG
Colossians 2:14-15 tells us Jesus did the same thing once He had defeated His spiritual enemies: “Then Jesus made a public spectacle of all the powers and principalities of darkness, stripping away from them every weapon and all their spiritual authority and power to accuse us. And by the power of the cross, Jesus led them around as prisoners in a procession of triumph. He was not their prisoner; they were his!” TPT
WE DECREE: IT IS A NEW SEASON IN WHICH GOD HAS DECLARED THE TIME FOR THE HANGING OF HAMON’S SONS HAS COME! IT’S A TIME OF DIVINE REVERSALS, A TIME OF TURNAROUNDS…..A TIME TO DESTROY THE AMALEKITE ASSIGNMENT IN OUR LIVES AND IN THIS LAND. WE BREAK THE SPIRIT OF ROBBERY IN JESUS NAME. WE COMMAND YOU TO LOOSE OUR LIVES AND OUR LAND, AND RETURN ALL THAT YOU HAVE STOLEN NOW, IN JESUS’ MIGHTY NAME!
THEREFORE, WE SAY WOE TO THE DECREES OF THE ENEMY AND TO EVERY PLOT, PLAN AND CONSPIRACY TO OVERTHROW TRUE RIGHTEOUSNESS AND JUSTICE, FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS AND JUSTICE ARE THE FOUNDATION OF GOD’S THRONE. WE DECREE THE LORD OF HOSTS, LORD SABAOTH, THE LORD OF THE ANGEL ARMIES WILL ESTABLISH YOUR THRONE HERE IN YOUR EKKLESIA AND IN OUR NATION AGAIN. WE DECREE THE ESTHER CHURCH IS ARISING IN FAVOR, IN BOLDNESS AND POWER AND WON’T BACK DOWN.
WE DECREE THE SCHEMES OF HAMAN AND HIS 10 SONS TO CONSPIRE AGAINST THE RIGHTEOUS AND THE DESTINY OF NATIONS, AND TO ROB, KILL AND DESTROY WILL BOOMERANG BACK ON THEIR OWN HEADS!!!!! IT’S A BOOMERANG SEASON! IT’S A SEASON OF JOY! ITS SPIRITUAL PURIM, THE HOLIDAY OF REVERSALS! IT’S TIME TO RISE UP AND PURSUE, OVERTAKE AND RECOVER ALL. IN JESUS’ MIGHTY NAME!
