Esther 10
Daily Devotional from Esther 10--
Verse 2
“and all the acts of his power and might, and the full account of the high honor of Mordecai, to which the King advanced him, are they not written…”
Mordecai had shown his integrity in warning the king of a plot to kill him. Thus, the king advanced him to high honor. He acted in all the ways he knew to come to the aid of his people. He led them in fasting and prayer. He spoke to Esther persuasively, which moved her to act bravely and selflessly. Because of his leadership, Esther and all the Jews trusted in the Lord.
After the threat of annihilation of the Jews, the Lord instead saved them, prospered them, and filled them with joy and gladness. This is such a graphic example of doom and despair turned into salvation and relief. The Lord is always at work on our behalf. He shows it here in dramatic ways, and we can expect no less of him today. Our Lord, Jesus Christ…” is the same yesterday, today and forever” (Hebrews 13:8). Hallelujah!
