For S ch a Time as This Sermon For Such a Time as This Sermon Tony Cansler / General For Such a Time as This / Esther If you Trust God In Trouble you will Triumph Note: The Name Esther appears times in this book, Mordecai appears . Mordecai has as much to do with this book as Esther. It was he that was walking with Esther helping her and developing her thru the entire process. Mordecai The Defender of he Je s Preface “The whole book traces how the right person was in the right place at the right time” (Wright Tro ble If o Tr s God in he Tro ble o ill Tri mph Tremendo s Times for he King Reigning o er Pro idences Es her King James Version Chap er NOW it came to pass in the days of Ahasuerus, (this is Ahasuerus which reigned, from India even unto Ethiopia, over an hundred and seven and twenty provinces: Also known as Xerxes which was a pagan king , Exported from Logos Bible Software, :0 PM March , 2020. 1 morally corrupt man. Like many politicians he only cared about himself as opposed to the people and pleasing God. He was very prideful as we will uncover in this sermon. He had trouble controlling his passion of women, he had a large harem. He had trouble with drinking, he had trouble with his temper, and he had trouble with his arrogance. Reigned years, BC to He was assassinated in BC BC Member of a Famous Dynasty Mordecai The Defender of he Je s His D nas Cyrus, the first king of this dynasty, was mentioned by name in prophecy by Isaiah (Isaiah : , : , a century or so before Cyrus was even born. Isaiah prophesied about “Cyrus … saying to Jerusalem, Thou shalt be built; and to the temple, Thy foundation shall be laid” (Isaiah : . Jeremiah also prophesied of this work of Cyrus regarding the return of the Jews from captivity to Jerusalem though, unlike Isaiah, he did not mention Cyrus by name (Jeremiah : ; : ; cp. Chronicles : , ; Ezra : – . Darius I, the father of Ahasuerus, was the man of this dynasty who led the Persian armies that conquered Babylon the night Belshazzar held the profane banquet (Daniel . As a result of conquering Babylon, Darius I became acquainted with godly Daniel. He appointed Daniel to high office in the government and was involved in Daniel’s stay in the lions’ den (Daniel . Ahasuerus was the third king of this dynasty to be very involved with the Jews as we will see in our study of the life of Mordecai. And Artaxerxes I, the son of Ahasuerus, was another member of this famous dynasty who was very involved with the Jews. Artaxerxes I was the king of Exported from Logos Bible Software, :0 PM March , 2020. 2 Persia who had Nehemiah as his cupbearer and who appointed Nehemiah governor of Judah and gave him the authority to go to Jerusalem to rebuild the walls of Jerusalem. So Mordecai’s involvement with Ahasuerus was an involvement with a very famous and powerful dynasty which had much to do with the preservation of the Jews. Matthew : King James Version Chap er Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. Timothy King James Version Chap er But godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. And having food and raiment let us be therewith content. But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition. For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows. But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and ffollow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness. jFight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses Re ned Palace Es her Exported from Logos Bible Software, :0 PM March , 2020. 3 King James Version Chap er That in those days, when the king Ahasuerus sat on the throne of his kingdom, which was in Shushan the palace, Sushan is better known in secular history as Susa. miles North of the Persian gulf, miles east of ancient Babylon. Today is covered mostly by Sand dunes. Interesting that a place once so affluent is now dead. Some of the ruins of the palace are visible today with the help of Archeologists. It was huge, the central hall is said to be feet long and feet wide. Respec of he Princes Es her King James Version Chap er In the third year of his reign, he made a feast unto all his princes and his servants; the power of Persia and Media, the nobles and princes of the provinces, being before him Riches and Prosperi Es her King James Version Chap er When he shewed the riches of his glorious kingdom and the honour of his excellent majesty many days, even an hundred and fourscore days Ri Par Es her Princes and Religious Rulers Women were not allowed to be with men on such occasions Celebra ion King James Version Chap er And when these days were expired, the king made a feast unto all the people that were Exported from Logos Bible Software, :0 PM March , 2020. present in Shushan the palace, both unto great and small, seven days, in the court of the garden of the king’s palace; Where were white, green, and blue, hangings, fastened with cords of fine linen and purple to silver rings and pillars of marble: the beds were of gold and silver, upon a pavement of red, and blue, and white, and black, marble. And they gave them drink in vessels of gold, (the vessels being diverse one from another,) and • Fellowship with the King • Fine Decor • Majestic Drapes • Mosaic stonework • Magnificent drinking cups made of gold, each one unique Consumption King James Version Chapter royal wine in abundance, according to the state of the king. And the drinking was according to the law; none did compel: for so the king had appointed to all the officers of his house, that they should do according to every man’s pleasure • Dining - Feast • Drunkenness Continuation • After 1 0 days were complete he added an additional Seven days. Esther 1:5 King James Version Chapter Exported from Logos Bible Software, :04 PM March , 2020. 5 And when these days were expired, the king made a feast unto all the people that were present in Shushan the palace, both unto great and small, seven days Corruption Esther 1:10 King James Version Chapter On the seventh day, when the heart of the king was merry with wine, he commanded Mehuman, Biztha, Harbona, Bigtha, and Abagtha, Zethar, and Carcas, the seven chamberlains that served in the presence of Ahasuerus the king, 11 To bring Vashti the queen before the king with the crown royal, to shew the people and the princes her beauty: for she was fair to look on All Wives - Esther 1: King James Version Chapter Also Vashti the queen made a feast for the women in the royal house which belonged to king Ahasuerus. Trouble for the King Disobedient Partner If ou Trust God in the Trouble ou will Triumph Request for the Queen to come Esther King James Version Chapter 10 On the seventh day, when the heart of the king was merry with wine, he commanded Mehuman, Biztha, Harbona, Bigtha, and Abagtha, Zethar, and Carcas, the seven chamberlains that served in the presence of Ahasuerus the king, 11 To bring Vashti the queen before the king with the crown royal, to Exported from Logos Bible Software, :04 PM March , 2020. shew the people and the princes her beauty: for she was fair to look on I would suggest that what he did here was wrong, he had the wrong motives for asking her to come before them. Drunkenness led to this. Many today think drinking is okay, even inside the church it is considered my many to be acceptable. I personally am a sworn enemy of the devil and I will oppose alcohol till the day I die. I often times am around it but I go out of my way to ensure others know I don’t partake of it and don’s participate in drinking. I am against all forms of drinking. Not everyone who takes one drink of alcohol will turn into an alcoholic but if you survey every alcoholic this morning they all began with one drink. Proverbs 20:1 King James Version Chapter Wine is a mocker, strong drink is raging: And whosoever is deceived thereby is not wise. Reason for the Queen to come Esther King James Version Chapter To bring Vashti the queen before the king with the crown royal, to shew the people and the princes her beauty: for she was fair to look on. The King was so morally corrupt he had no respect for women, not even his own wife He only wanted her to come was because of her beauty and so that the others could be envious of him and what he had. In all transparency he wanted Exported from Logos Bible Software, :04 PM March , 2020. to show off his prize and make them lustful of her. Jewish scholars believed that the Queen was to come nude, the Pulpit commentary suggests that she was to come clothes but to unveil herself to the drunken men. Here he is drunk and not even thinking how his wife would feel about this, that was totally ignored. Alcohol will put you in a state where you don’t think about the feelings of others but rather only care about how you feel and what you want. Many wives or women are abused today by men that have an addiction to alcohol. Hollywood sells alcohol as fun and sex as pleasure to be fulfilled at all costs and Hollywood is wrong. The only way you can be satisfied is being fully surrendered and fully submitted to Jesus. Refusal of the Queen coming Esther King James Version Chapter But the queen Vashti refused to come at the king’s commandment by his chamberlains: therefore was the king very wroth, and his anger burned in him Courage to Stand up and do what s right Commitment to Stand up and do what s right Proverbs 11:22 King James Version Chapter As a jewel of gold in a swine’s snout, So is a fair woman which is without discretion. Proverbs 12:4 King James Version Chapter A virtuous woman is a crown to her husband: Exported from Logos Bible Software, :04 PM March , 2020. Proverbs 31:10-12 King James Version Chapter 10 Who can find a virtuous woman? For her price is far above rubies. 11 The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, So that he shall have no need of spoil. 12 She will do him good and not evil All the days of her life. Resentment for the Queen not coming • King - Esther 1:12-15 King James Version Chapter therefore was the king very wroth, and his anger burned in him. 13 Then the king said to the wise men, which knew the times, (for so was the king’s manner toward all that knew law and judgment: 14 And the next unto him was Carshena, Shethar, Admatha, Tarshish, Meres, Marsena, and Memucan, the seven princes of Persia and Media, which saw the king’s face, and which sat the first in the kingdom;) 15 What shall we do unto the queen Vashti according to law, because she hath not performed the commandment of the king Ahasuerus by the chamberlains? This was likely very embarrassing for him, after all he was the King and everyone was supposed to obey him. And when his very own wife did not obey him, uh oh. He could have had her put to death, but I believe he cared too much for her to have that done. He sought council with his wise men on what he Exported from Logos Bible Software, :04 PM March , 2020. should do and how he should handle this. • Princes - Esther 1:16-1 King James Version Chapter And Memucan answered before the king and the princes, Vashti the queen hath not done wrong to the king only, but also to all the princes, and to all the people that are in all the provinces of the king Ahasuerus. 17 For this deed of the queen shall come abroad unto all women, so that they shall despise their husbands in their eyes, when it shall be reported, The king Ahasuerus commanded Vashti the queen to be brought in before him, but she came not. 1 Likewise shall the ladies of Persia and Media say this day unto all the king’s princes, which have heard of the deed of the queen. Thus shall there arise too much contempt and wrath. The princes also resented her not coming as they feared that if their wives and women seen the Queen disobey the King their ladies might do the same. Rejection of the Queen continuing to be the Queen Esther King James Version Chapter 1 If it please the king, let there go a royal commandment from him, and let it be written among the laws of the Persians and the Medes, that it be not altered, That Vashti come no more before king Ahasuerus; and let the king give her royal estate unto another that is better than she. 20 And when the king’s decree which he shall make shall be published throughout all his empire, (for it is great,) all the wives shall give to their husbands honour, both to great and small. 21 And the saying pleased Exported from Logos Bible Software, :04 PM March , 2020. 10 the king and the princes; and the king did according to the word of Memucan: 22 For he sent letters into all the king’s provinces, into every province according to the writing thereof, and to every people after their language, that every man should bear rule in his own house, and that it should be published according to the language of every people. Interesting that the wise men chose his side and none of them said sir, you were drunk and you should not have put her in that position. No one would oppose the King and call him out for the wrong which he did. No matter how you call it out, the King was wrong and did his wife wrong. IT was Queen Vashti’s conduct that commendable in this situation, not the King. This was a bunch of yes me, in my opinion no leader should just surround himself with yes men. Don’t be afraid to be opposed as a leader, at times we need to be challenged. Of course this pleased the King, they were saying the Queen was wrong and not him. Don’t get me wrong, I HATE being wrong but sometimes the Lord uses others including my wife and my children to call my hand on things which in turn makes me a better man and draws me closer to the Lord Where is the Godly council in this situation, was none of these men on God’s side? A Godly leader will surround himself with other leaders and especially Godly leaders which will help him to be the Leader that God wants him to be. These leaders changed it from an Indecent request from the King to Insubordination from Exported from Logos Bible Software, :04 PM March , 2020. 11 the Queen. I personally believe that the Queen was most likely happier after this happened than she was before, we don’t have anything supporting this but I know if I was in her shoes in this situation I would be. The money, the wealth, the things, the palace, none of these things can make someone happy. If you Trust God in the Trouble you will Triumph Exported from Logos Bible Software, :04 PM March , 2020. 12 Fo S ch a Time a Thi Se mon T o ble For Such a Time as This Sermon - Trouble Tony Cansler / General For Such a Time as This / Esther; Esther If you Trust God In Trouble you will Triumph Trouble for the King Di obedien Pa ne • Request for the Queen to come - Esther : 0• Reason for the Queen to come - Esther : • Refusal of the Queen coming - Esther : • Resentment for the Queen not coming - Esther : • Rejection of the Queen continuing to be the Queen Esther : - Replacemen o be cho en fo he Q een E he King Jame Ve ion Chap e After these things, when the wrath of king Ahasuerus was appeased, he remembered Vashti, and what she had done, and what was decreed against her. Then said the king’s servants that ministered unto him, Let there be fair young virgins sought for the king: And let the king appoint officers in all the provinces of his Exported from Logos Bible Software, :00 PM March , 2020. 1 kingdom, that they may gather together all the fair young virgins unto Shushan the palace, to the house of the women, unto the custody of Hege the king’s chamberlain, keeper of the women; and let their things for purification be given them: And let the maiden which pleaseth the king be queen instead of Vashti. And the thing pleased the king; and he did so. Scholars suggest that it could have been as long as three years from the time Vashti was removed until a replacement is to be chosen. Take Esther : and compare it to Esther : - and that is what indicates the timeline. When it says he remembered Vashti, I wonder what he remembered, was it her beauty, was it traits, was it her refusing to bow to his wicked request. Sometimes God allows us to remember... He is going to be selecting the new Queen from the fair (beautiful) virgins of the land. I am a firm believer in promoting that our youth and young adults save themselves for marriage. Sex outside of the marriage of a man and woman no matter what form it is, is wrong. Sex is only permitted inside the bonds of Holy matrimony with a man his woman or for the woman and her man. The selected virgins are to be set aside for physical purification, these religion rulers didn’t care about spiritual purity. To be candid spiritual purity is more important that physical purification. God sent a woman into my wife that was pure and I was pure and the Lord has blessed our marriage. It has been a bed of roses, the blossoms for me and thorns for her. This made the King very happy, remember he is a immoral and ungodly man, he is only going to considering the outward appearance, but the Lord looks on the inward and that is what we should do Exported from Logos Bible Software, :00 PM March , 2020. 2 also. Samuel : But the LORD said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for the LORD seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart E a Nehemiah E he King Jame Ve ion B The Pe ian King Choo e E he o Become Hi Ne Q een A Pic e of Mo all Co p Man Con a ed i h T e Belie e of S ong Cha ac e Some people are just like King Xerxes: they are morally corrupt and they engage in one sexual exploit after another. One-night stands matter little to these persons because sexual pleasure is their only pursuit. Others develop long-term relationships that are sexual in nature but nothing more. However in all cases of morally corrupt people, they either refuse to make a permanent, monogamous, marital commitment or else they make a commitment that is easily broken or disregarded. In both cases they reject God and His holy commandments that forbid adultery and illicit sex and that demand marriage between a man and a woman E a Nehemiah E he King Jame Ve ion B The Pe ian King Choo e E he o Become Hi Ne Q een A Pic e of Mo all Co p Man Con a ed i h T e Belie e of S ong Cha ac e All morally corrupt people have one serious flaw in common: they either fail to realize; or simply do not care, that sex is only one part of many that make up the total relationship between man and woman. Men and women experience unity and pleasure on many levels and in many ways. Therefore attention must be given to all areas of the relationship if it is to grow, thrive, succeed, and stand the test of time. A healthy relationship must be built upon … Exported from Logos Bible Software, :00 PM March , 2020. 3 • companionship, being together and sharing with each other • common desires and purposes, wanting the same things and making the commitment to strive for the same goals • establishing a life and home together, loving, nurturing, helping, and nourishing one another in every area of life, which includes the sexual aspect of the relationship • diligent and consistent work • tolerance and patience, forgiving one another when facing shortcomings or failure • healthy social relationships, respecting each other’s family, friends, and co-workers as well as developing mutual friends • Christ and the church, making a joint commitment to follow and obey the LORD and to become active in a local church The alonian KJV For God hath not called us unto uncleanness, but unto holiness. Heb e KJV Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge. Replacemen cho en fo he Q een Si a ion of Mo decai E he King Jame Ve ion Chap e Now in Shushan the palace there was a certain Jew, whose name was Mordecai, the son of Jair, the son of Shimei, the son of Kish, a Benjamite; Who had been carried away from Jerusalem with the captivity which had been carried away Exported from Logos Bible Software, :00 PM March , 2020. with Jeconiah king of Judah, whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had carried away Esther : 1 King James Version Chapter In those days, while Mordecai sat in the king’s gate, While Esther is the one which was the Hands of the Lord in this story, it was Mordecai that served as the head in this story, he was deeply connected to God and the Lord used that to use Esther to save his people. Eight times in this book it is called out that Mordecai is a Jew, he had kept it secret for a while but he later revealed it. It is important that as Christians we publicize that, do not keep it secret. Perhaps some of you have been holding back and not sharing it. The time has came that you arise and obtain boldness and share that you are a believer. He was one of the ones carried away captive, so he was not a stranger with hardship. Gods people have always been familiar with hardship. Others that had been carried away was Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach, Abendego. There is one thing certain, God’s people may suffer but he NEVER forgets them in their suffering. S ggestion from Mordecai Esther King James Version Chapter And he brought up Hadassah, that is, Esther, his uncle’s daughter: for she had neither father nor mother, and the maid was fair and beautiful; whom Mordecai, when her father and mother were dead, took for his own daughter Exported from Logos Bible Software, :00 PM March , 2020. 5 Anal tical Bible E positor E ra to Job Bene olence of Mordecai Esther The “Hadassah” was Esther’s Jewish name; “Esther” was her Persian name Hadassah meant Turtle and Esther meant Star • Related to Esther - “his uncle’s daughter” • Radiant Esther - “the maid was fair and beautiful” • Responsible for Esther - “took for his own daughter” • Raised Esther itho t Parents - “for she had neither father nor mother” With all the negativity we have read about the King one might wonder why Mordecai would want his beloved which he raised to be around the king let alone be queen. But I must believe that God orchestrated this from and let Mordecai this way. Being Raised by Mordecai and still being so close to him she would likely had strong character, truth and integrity, righteousness and holiness, kindness, gentleness, compassion, generosity, and Faith would likely have been instilled in her in a young age. We need those character traits today amongst our children, youth, and young adults.

And the maiden pleased him, and she obtained kindness of him; and he speedily gave her her things for purification, with such things as belonged to her, and seven maidens, which were meet to be given her, out of the king’s house: and he preferred her and her maids unto the best place of the house of the women. 10 Esther had not shewed her people nor her kindred: for Mordecai had charged her that she should not shew it Scholars suggest that there was hundreds of virgins brought, which I would imagine to be true given the fact that they were wanting to be Queen. Was this an ancient bible version of the Bachelor She would have been given whatever clothing or jewelry she desired to wear to meet the King Only Eunuchs would have been selected to care for the young vigins because they were no sexual threat to them. • Preca tion Esther :10 King James Version Chapter Esther had not shewed her people nor her kindred: for Mordecai had charged her that she should not shew it. It is possible that had Esther disclosed her Exported from Logos Bible Software, :00 PM March , 2020. nationality she might not have been picked, the king looked mainly at the Persian families for a queen. • Protection Esther :11 King James Version Chapter And Mordecai walked every day before the court of the women’s house, to know how Esther did, and what should become of her He was Faithful to Dropping in on her He was Fruitfully Developing her • Period of Separation Esther :1 King James Version Chapter Now when every maid’s turn was come to go in to king Ahasuerus, after that she had been twelve months, according to the manner of the women, (for so were the days of their purifications accomplished, The purification process would have been a 1 month process, with the 1st months being focused on oil baths, massages and the nd month focused around giving her perfumes and cosmetics which she desired. • Process of the Separation Esther :1 King James Version Chapter Now when every maid’s turn was come to go in to king Ahasuerus, after that she had been twelve months, according to the manner of the women, (for so were the days of their purifications accomplished, to wit, six months with oil of myrrh, and six months with sweet odours, and with other things for the purifying of the women;) • A Significant amount of effort went into her Exported from Logos Bible Software, :00 PM March , 2020. preparation to meet the King, what efforts are being done for our coming meeting with the King of Kings. • Presentation to the King Esther 2:13-16 King James Version Chapter Then thus came every maiden unto the king; whatsoever she desired was given her to go with her out of the house of the women unto the king’s house. 14 In the evening she went, and on the morrow she returned into the second house of the women, to the custody of Shaashgaz, the king’s chamberlain, which kept the concubines: she came in unto the king no more, except the king delighted in her, and that she were called by name. 15 Now when the turn of Esther, the daughter of Abihail the uncle of Mordecai, who had taken her for his daughter, was come to go in unto the king, she required nothing but what Hegai the king’s chamberlain, the keeper of the women, appointed. And Esther obtained favour in the sight of all them that looked upon her. 16 So Esther was taken unto king Ahasuerus into his house royal in the tenth month, which is the month Tebeth, in the seventh year of his reign • What will come of the time when we are presented to the King of Kings • Preference from the King Esther King James Version Chapter And the king loved Esther above all the women, and she obtained grace and favour in his sight more than all the virgins; so that he set the royal crown upon her head, and made her queen instead of Vashti • Presentation of the Queen Esther Exported from Logos Bible Software, 8:00 PM March , 2020. King James Version Chapter Then the king made a great feast unto all his princes and his servants, even Esther’s feast; and he made a release to the provinces, and gave gifts, according to the state of the king. 19 And when the virgins were gathered together the second time, then Mordecai sat in the king’s gate. 20 Esther had not yet shewed her kindred nor her people; as Mordecai had charged her: for Esther did the commandment of Mordecai, like as when she was brought up with him. This would have been her coronation, a holiday would have been declared and gifts would have been shared. There ill be a da in hich the Bride of Christ is presented as his Queen • I hope you are longing and looking for that day in which we as the bride of Christ are presented to him which is the King of Kings Death Plot Esther Conspirac Esther King James Version Chapter In those days, while Mordecai sat in the king’s gate, two of the king’s chamberlains, Bigthan and Teresh, of those which kept the door, were wroth, and sought to lay hand on the king Ahasuerus After reading and studying this I want to question why did Mordecai spoil this, and not allow it to happen but that would not have been the right thing to do. Even if the ruler is wicked, the Godly thing to do is to pray that God would intervene. God is Exported from Logos Bible Software, 8:00 PM March , 2020. 10 intervening here, the Lord is sending a Godly woman into the Kings wife. Many times a Good Godly woman has done much for ungodly men. There was a very wicked and evil man that grew up only miles from here named Nathan Bedford Forrest that God allowed him to have a Godly wife that Loved the Lord and Prayed for him. In the end he comes to know the Lord as his personal Lord and Savior. He is also Repentant of his behavior and life. If you have never read his story read it. Seems that society only knows him for one thing he did wrong and not the brilliant soldier he was and in the end Believer he was. Sitting at the Kings gate was not saying he was loitering at the gate being lazy but this would be an official position inside of the government. Chamberlains means eunichs, these two eunichs were the eunichs watching the kings door. We dont know why they sought his life but they seen everything that happened and all which went before him and away from him. They would have seen the ugly side of the government. Mordecai The Defender of the Je s the Conspirators The Indignation of Scripture does not say exactly what it was that so angered these two men. But there are enough things said of Ahasuerus in Scripture and secular history that would give many reasons for men to be justifiably angry with Ahasuerus. Anger could be present over his deposing of Vashti. Anger could be stirred up over the defeat in war to Greece which cost the lives of thousands—and the friends and relatives of the slain would be very upset about that Cogni ance Esther Exported from Logos Bible Software, 8:00 PM March , 2020. 11 King James Version Chapter And the thing was known to Mordecai, who told it unto Esther the queen; and Esther certified the king thereof in Mordecai’s name When Mordecai discovered it he didnt sit on the information, he took it to Esther so she could tell the King the plot and spare his life. To which she ensured that the King knew it was Mordecai that was the one reporting this. He did not go around telling everyone of the plot but rather took it directly to Esther as she could tell the king. Conviction Esther King James Version Chapter And when inquisition was made of the matter, it was found out; therefore they were both hanged on a tree: and it was written in the book of the chronicles before the king. The king took the information and performed an investigation which revealed the plot was true and they were going to kill him. The King recorded in his records that it was Mordecai that saved his life. This text is not saying that they were to be hanged but rather hanged on a tree which suggest an Impaling by a tree, this was common in this day.

Guarding ourselves against extreme prejudice and bitter hatred is the lesson for us. Discriminating against other people because of their race, color, appearance, ability or beliefs is wrong. Just because a person is different—whether handicapped, physically deformed, less educated or any other dissimilarity—is no reason for harsh feelings or acts of discrimination. As followers of the Lord Jesus Christ, we are not to open our hearts to prejudice or bitter hatred. When people do wrong and commit atrocities, we are to legally execute justice and hold them accountable. However, justice is never to be executed out of personal bitterness but, rather, out of a sense of righteousness. John KJV Then saith the woman of Samaria unto him, How is it that thou, being a Jew, askest drink of me, which am a woman of Samaria? for the Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans.

And it was found written, that Mordecai had told of Bigthana and Teresh, two of the king’s chamberlains, the keepers of the door, who sought to lay hand on the king Ahasuerus.

We know that young man today as Augustine, Bishop of Hippo, and author of numerous Christian classics. The king’s servant picked out the very book that told about Mordecai’s good deed and read that section to Ahasuerus. How marvelous is the providence of God!

He served the people of the city through his position as a city official (2:1 ). He saved the life of the king by uncovering the plot to assassinate Xerxes (2:21– 23). He took a strong stand for the LORD by refusing to bow before Haman, which would have given the prime minister the reverence due to God alone (3:1– ). He courageously took a public stand for the Jews after the Decree of Extermination had been issued. ( :1–3). He aroused Esther to save the Jews by pleading with the king for mercy ( : –13). He was a man who believed in fasting and prayer before the Lord ( :1 –1 ). He willingly accepted the enormous responsibility of prime minister, second only to the king in authority and duty ( :1–2). He willingly took on the responsibility of overseeing Esther’s estate, serving as manager or steward ( :1–2). He along with Esther saved the Jews from extermination ( : – :1 ).
