Please join with us sharing God’s Word daily. We spend
about fifteen minutes a day praying and reading every word in God’s Word in
approximately three years.
Dear
Saints,
Today we
prayerfully Feast in Esther 7; Esther asks the king to spare her
life and those of her family. God gives Esther favor and in the
king’s eye and Haman is condemned. Haman hanged on the gallows which he had
built for Mordecai; “ 9 Then Harbona, one of the eunuchs in attendance on
the king, said, “Moreover, the gallows[a] that Haman has prepared for
Mordecai, whose word saved the king, is standing at Haman's house, fifty
cubits[b] high.”10 And the king said, “Hang him on that.” So they
hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai. Then the
wrath of the king abated.” Esther
7:9-10, English Standard Version (ESV). Here we read of a man’s treachery in his heart as
it is turned on himself by our Lord God. If we who are granted God’s mercy
listen to and learn from Jesus’ words and take them to heart will never be
guilty of sinning like Haman. God’s mercy is summed up in a law of love and
forgiveness. “35 And one of them, a lawyer, asked him a
question to test him.36 “Teacher, which is the great
commandment in the Law?” 37 And he said to him, “You
shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and
with all your mind. 38 This is the great and first
commandment. 39 And a second is like it: You
shall love your neighbor as yourself. 40 On these two
commandments depend all the Law and the Prophets.”” Matthew
22:35-40, ESV. God’s Word
tells us everything we need to know to live a sin free life. Turn
to God in the name of Jesus whenever you have a need or a question. If
the Lord is willing I will write and post the Feast tomorrow.
