21-May-2025
In Esther 5, we hear how Haman boasts to his friends and family about being promoted by the king, we get to see his arrogance and self-indulgence. As the book continues, we see how God works out Haman’s evil plans for the good of God’s people. In Esther 6, God uses Haman’s selfishness to honour Mordecai. Over and over, we will see how God provides for the humble, protects those who love and trust Him all the while thwarting the plans of the wicked. Haman’s character is the opposite of Mordecai’s. Mordecai was not interested in self-promotion. He was
living as a Jewish exile in Persia, raising his young cousin as his own daughter and living a life of
faithfulness to God. Though this seems less rewarding at first, he and Esther end up as great
heroes of the faith. Haman on the other hand, ends up facing justice. God is more than able to
bring justice, even in a culture that was unjust. Let’s remember to lean on God for true justice,

The three friends of Job are listed as Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite. They really don’t seem all that friendly though. They start well; they come and sit in silence with Job, mourning with him. But then they start to talk. Rather than continue in their mourni...

Our Purpose Broken Off; Job 15-20
People often equate their purpose in life with success and what they can accomplish. In other words, if each brick laid is an accomplishment, then many accomplishments build up to success. The higher the tower, or the more accomplished you are, the more successful you are, and the more you have f...
