Bible Reading: Esther 10
Memory Verse: Esther 10: 3a (NKJV)
For Mordecai the Jew was second to King Ahasuerus, and was great among the Jews and well received by the multitude of his brethren,
Good evening ladies and gentlemen! How are you all doing? How was your day! I pray that your day was great and that you were able share the Gospel to other, through your attitude and behavior! Without going on and on, let’s get right into today’s message! Today’s message is a continuation of yesterday- helping to uncover God’s promises to His children!
This week’s passage (Esther 10) helps us to understand how God honors those who honor Him! Today, we are looking at the fact that God makes us great- even greater than our peers, colleagues, seniors, etc. Once you choose Him, He would continue to lift you up from one level to another! Your final destination and the increase in level/ status, would surprise you!
As a child of God, why worry about your current circumstance! You are a victor! You have won the battle through Christ! God is about to reward you for choosing Him and diligently following His will! God can take you from your lowest point into something wild! Look He can take a shepherd to become king! What can’t God do for you?
Look at Mordecai’s life! He was a regular Jew who decided to choose God in every situation and circumstance he finds himself. For that, he suffered persecution! Even then, he stood for God! With that, God lifted him from the enemy’s snare and blessed Him! One of the blessings being that He was great among the Jews.
In our context, the Holy Spirit is encouraging us to keep choosing God in every situation- no what you may gain or lose! God is faithful! He sees and hears everything you do for Him! He sees all the sacrifices you make for the kingdom! He will surely reward you- not only in heaven but here on earth!
My dear brother and sister in Christ, you are great because you are a child of God! Go forth and shine in your land! God has made you greater than your peers, classmates, colleagues, work mates, etc. Watch Him as He rolls out His perfect plan of your life!
Stand firm in Faith! The battle is almost over; in fact, it is over! We have conquered the enemy! We have claimed all that the enemy has stolen or tried to steal! Look at the wonderful things God is about to do for you; because you Honored Him! Hallelujah!
Prayer Points:
1. Thank God for victory!
