click to Read the passage: Esther 9  (a new browser window will open)




v.11.The enemy thinks he can rule over God's people.
(in the day that the enemies of the Jews hoped to have power over them,)

2.God intervenes to rescue His people from the enemy's plot.
(the king's commandment and his decree drew near to be put in execution,)

3.The rule of God is always over evil.
(though it was turned to the contrary, that the Jews had rule over them that hated them,)

v.24.There is great strength when God's people gather in the power of His Name, against
 the enemy.
(the Jews gathered themselves together ...)

5.To stand against those God is for is to stand against God.
(and no man could withstand them)
If God be for us, who can be against us. Romans 8 31

v.26.The presence of God is that which strikes fear in the enemy.
(for the fear of them fell upon all people.)
God's people of themselves don't strike fear; but God's presence amongst His people does.  
When in need pray for God's presence.

v.37.When God asserts His authority, there can only be submission to Him.
Today God is allowing many things to go on.  When God says it is over, it is over.
