"God will Bless And Reward You" from Esther 6:1-14

Image
In every ministry that we do even in small things, God will reward you. He will not forget your works. Chronicles means history. It has been clear here that King Xerxes seldom read. As believers reading some time God's word He will reward you even in listening to HIS instructions. In all things God's work in us. We should protect our selves from pride. Learn to be servant of all. You should be patient and wait that God will reward you in time. Proverbs 18:12 Before a downfall the heart is haughty, but humility comes before honor. Hebrews 6:10 God is not unjust; he will not forget your work and the love you have shown him as you have helped his people and continue to help them. We have to do things for the Lord but be faithful. Mordecai remains humble and down to earth for he get back to the King's gate where he come from. We have to always stay humble. Luke 14:11 For all those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalt

"Present Your Request" from Esther 5:1-14

On this chapter we will see that in verse 1-8, are the story about Esther. And, in verse 9-14 are the story about Haman. This is to differentiate between Faith and Hatred. Philippians 4:6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. We are blessed cause we have God that we can lean on every time we have problem. Like the foot prints in the sand. In verse 1-5, Esther request for banquet. Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see. In our prayer, the answer of God is Yes, No and Wait. Do not conform what the image of the world. Psalm 37:4 Take delight in the LORD, and he will give you the desires of your heart. Jeremiah 33:3 ‘Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know.’ Petition also means request. Hebrews 5:7 During the days of Jesus’ life on earth, he offered up prayers and petit

"Let the Holy Spirit Dwell In Your Life" from Acts 2:147

Image
The first point in this chapter is to let God work in our life. And, the second point is God will use you. Tongues of fire here is the Holy Spirit. Pentecost was the Jewish family celebration. Deuteronomy 4:24 For the LORD your God is a consuming fire, a jealous God. The meaning of fire in the Bible is to specify God. John 14:26 But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you. Acts 1:4 On one occasion, while he was eating with them, he gave them this command: “Do not leave Jerusalem, but wait for the gift my Father promised, which you have heard me speak about. Jeremiah 23:29 “Is not my word like fire,” declares the LORD, “and like a hammer that breaks a rock in pieces? Malachi 3:3 He will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver; he will purify the Levites and refine them like gold and silver. Then the LORD will have men who will bring offerings in righteousness, The Ap

"Cry Out To Him" from Esther 4:1-17

Image
We should always cry out for God. He is not deaf. God is working in the life of Mordecai and Esther. The first point we must know on this chapter is that there's hope and the second is not to fear. When we are so down on our problems, it's like torring the clothes of Mordecai. Through the sorrow and the pain, we should always and remain praising God. Also, the decision was made, that's why Mordecai mourn. He doesn't want the Jews to perish. We have to pray to those who mourn and need help, prayer is powerful, pray for those who are in need. We are family consider your churchmate's as a family member. Annihilation means total destruction. As for us Christians, we can come to God anytime, through the blood of Jesus. We should always cry out to Him. ~~~

"Stand Firm" from Esther 3:1-15

Image
The first point: to stand for what is right. And, the second point: surely there will be hope! Our protection is our relationship with the Lord - to stand firm on the rock, and our rock is Jesus. Knowing you stand firm for what is right, there is hope for the hopeless. Haman is sometimes like the Anti-christ here in this book, he's like Satan that wants to kill the Jews to rule the world. The Bible say's that worship God only, and Mordecai do the right thing. For us, God is the only one who will be worship. Make Him number one in your life. We should relate ourselves to the Jews - that worship one God. The same thing to us that Jesus is the one we will worship. We will never be shaken if we stand for what is right. Temptation's and pressure's to bow down to Idol's is our day after day struggle, just like here in Mordecai that they daily ask him why he didn't kneel for Haman. Satan enraged when people will not bow down to him just like Haman. We will
