Haman

Esther 7-8: The Exact Words at the Perfect Time

December 29, 2017 By Mordecai Leave a Comment

Queen Esther, a Jew, informs the King of Haman’s evil plans to destroy her people.  The King seals Haman’s fate.

The King gives all that belonged to Haman to Queen Esther, and she put her uncle Mordecai in charge of Haman’s house.

God tells us to not be afraid, that He will give us the words to speak in the hour of need.

Again, Queen Esther bravely pleads to the King that the orders Haman had written to destroy the Jews be reversed.

The King, bound by custom and law was unable to reverse the orders, but did issue new orders;

“the king granted the Jews who were in every city to gather themselves together, and to defend their life, to destroy, to kill, and to cause to perish, all the power of the people and province that would assault them, their little ones and women, and to plunder their possessions”
– Esther 8:11

In every province where the king’s commandment was delivered, the Jews had gladness, joy, a feast, and a good day.

Esther 5-6: What is Your Request?

December 21, 2017 By Mordecai Leave a Comment

The King asked Queen Esther, “What is your request? It shall be given you even to the half of the kingdom.”

Evil Haman builds gallows 50 ft. high to hang Mordecai the Jew from.

The King tells Haman that he would be pleased if Mordecai was publicly honored for having previously saved the King’s life from would-be assassins.

Humiliated Haman does as the King ordered.

Zeresh, Haman’s wife, tells him,

“If Mordecai, before whom you have begun to fall, is of Jewish descent, you will not prevail against him, but you will surely fall before him.”
– Esther 6:13

Read Scripture: Esther as told by The Bible Project

December 2, 2017 By Mordecai Leave a Comment

 

A classic story of good versus evil, the Book of Esther is a unique account in the Bible. It gives us a glimpse of the Jews who remained outside their homeland after the Exile, particularly the Jews living in the Persian Empire. Here we see that the author chose a fascinating literary choice – never once is God mentioned in the entire Book. This behind-the-scenes take of God at work is brilliantly displayed throughout Esther’s chapters through “coincidences” and “happen chances” that help to save the Jews from Haman’s wicked plot to destroy them.

Iran’s countdown clock to Israel’s destruction

June 28, 2017 By Mordecai Leave a Comment

What do you think?
Is Iran’s doomsday countdown clock similar to Haman building the gallows?

Source: Iran’s countdown clock to Israel’s destruction

“The rally also inaugurated a huge digital countdown display at Tehran Palestine Square, showing that Israel will allegedly cease to exist in 8,411 days.

In 2015, Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei predicted that after 25 years — by 2040 — there will no longer be a State of Israel.”

 

Iran is sealing their own fate.

What does the Bible say about such people?

Do not keep silent, O God!
Do not hold Your peace,
And do not be still, O God!
For behold, Your enemies make a tumult;
And those who hate You have lifted up their head.
They have taken crafty counsel against Your people,
And consulted together against Your sheltered ones.
They have said, “Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation,
That the name of Israel may be remembered no more.”

Psalm 83:1-4

and

“For behold, the day is coming, burning like an oven, when all the arrogant and all evildoers will be stubble. The day that is coming shall set them ablaze, says the Lord of hosts, so that it will leave them neither root nor branch.

Malachi 4:1
