SCRIPTURE: Esther 9:1-19
SHOW NOTES: The book of Esther is filled with many twists and turns – people in positions of power, and others who are wicked and evil. Where is God? Has He forgotten the Jewish people spread through the 127 provinces of the Persian kingdom? “On this day the enemies of the Jews had hoped to overpower them, but now the tables were turned, and the Jews got the upper hand over those who hated them.” Haman’s edict had given others the legal authority to kill the Jews and take all their property. The second edict, written by Mordecai and Queen Esther, allowed the Jews to gather and defend themselves against these violent attacks on their families. God is at work in this story.
Remember, the details of our lives are part of God’s beautiful purpose. It’s a tapestry, woven according to His design and plan. “The Lord will fulfill His purpose for me; Your steadfast love, O Lord, endures forever. Do not forsake the work of your hands.” (Psalm 138:8)
