Aren’t I The Best?
June 18, 2013 – Esther 6
Dear Saints,
Today we prayerfully
Feast in Esther 6; The Lord God gives King Ahasuerus insomnia so he
reads about Mordecai’s prior service. The king is impressed and decides to
reward Mordecai. Haman (being a legend in his own mind) believes
the king wants to honor himself not Mordecai. Haman plots against Mordecai as his friends
tell him how to plan Mordecai’s death; “13 Yet
all this is worth nothing to me, so long as I see Mordecai the Jew sitting at
the king's gate.” 14 Then his wife Zeresh and all his friends said to him,
“Let a gallows fifty cubits high be made, and in the morning tell the king to
have Mordecai hanged upon it. Then go joyfully with the king to the feast.”
This idea pleased Haman, and he had the gallows made.” Esther 6:13-14 English Standard Version (ESV). I think the lesson we get hear would be two
fold;
1.
Is not to count ourselves as more valuable than
another person
2.
Talking and plotting against anyone behind their
back never turns out good
God left us specific
instructions of how to approach those who are caught in transgressions. “1Brothers, if anyone is caught
in any transgression, you who are spiritual should restore him in a spirit of
gentleness. Keep watch on yourself, lest you too be tempted. 2 Bear one
another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ. 3 For if anyone thinks
he is something, when he is nothing, he deceives himself.”
Galatians 6:1-3 ESV. In
the third verse we are told not to think we are legends in our own mind. Tomorrow we will see what happens to Haman,
for backbiting and boasting.

“Sing to God, sing praises to his name; lift up a
song to him who rides through the deserts; his name is the Lord; exult before
him! Father of the fatherless and protector of widows is God in his holy
habitation.” Psalm 68:4-5 ESV

June 17, 2013 – Esther 5
Dear Saints,
Today we prayerfully
Feast in Esther 5; Esther's request, let the king and Haman is
granted. Haman heart is filled with hatred
and he plans to hang Mordecai; “13 Yet all this is
worth nothing to me, so long as I see Mordecai the Jew sitting at the king's
gate.” 14 Then his wife Zeresh and all his friends said to him, “Let a
gallows fifty cubits high be made, and in the morning tell the king to have
Mordecai hanged upon it. Then go joyfully with the king to the feast.” This
idea pleased Haman, and he had the gallows made.” Esther 5:13-14 English Standard Version
(ESV). Hatred makes our heart heavy
and sick. Usually when we have a
hateful attitude the only one it hurts is us. If someone offends us and we even think in our
heart; “That Jerk!” we have sinned. By
the same token if we see someone who may be in need and we think “What a
looser!” we’ve sinned. If we love God
and allow Jesus to rule our mind and heart we won’t have room for sin. “Sing to God, sing praises to his name; lift up a song to him who rides
through the deserts; his name is the Lord; exult before him! Father of the
fatherless and protector of widows is God in his holy habitation.” Psalm
68:4-5 ESV. When are praising God and sharing our faith
in Jesus we have the right and light heart.

Happy Father’s Day?
June 16, 2013 – Esther 4
Dear Saints,
Today we prayerfully
Feast in Esther 4; The Jews wailed about the danger and Mordecai
went to the gate in sackcloth to gain Esther’s ear. Esther knows the consequences if she
approaches the king for the Jews; “15 Then Esther
told them to reply to Mordecai, 16 “Go, gather all the Jews to be found in
Susa, and hold a fast on my behalf, and do not eat or drink for three days,
night or day. I and my young women will also fast as you do. Then I will go
to the king, though it is against the law, and if I perish, I perish.” 17
Mordecai then went away and did everything as Esther had ordered him.” Esther 4:15-17 English Standard Version
(ESV). Do you fear consequences of sharing
the love of God with your neighbors or even your own family? When we don’t witness to win people for
Jesus what are the consequences for them?
If we don’t raise our children to fear God are we doing them a favor? “As a father shows compassion to his children, so the Lord shows
compassion to those who fear him.” Psalm 103:13 ESV. If we go on without telling others the consequences
of rejecting Jesus or we don’t raise our children in the Lord what then? The truth is if we ignore the salvation of
others we are guilty of their death. Christian
fathers, it is your duty to share Jesus with your family and neighbors. Only when you do what is good and right will
all your Father’s Day’s be happy. Have
a truly Happy Father’s Day!
Jesus is calling; “Sinner come home!” Do you
hear that small voice calling; sinner com home? Do you want to choose good over evil? If
