Esther 5:1-14: The Queen's First Feast
Manage episode 425744061 series 2094168
After three days and nights of fasting, Esther goes before the king without an invitation. He spares her life by extending his scepter to her, and he tells Esther to present her request. Using her God-given wisdom, Esther simply invites both the king and Haman to her feast that night. There, she promises that she will present her request when they come to her second feast the following evening. Haman’s joy at the honor of being invited by the Queen in this manner is dashed when he sees Mordecai refuse to bow down yet again. His family and advisors encourage him to prepare for Mordecai to be executed the very next day.
Rev. David Boisclair, pastor at Our Redeemer Lutheran Church in Overland, MO, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Esther 5:1-14.
"For Such a Time As This” is a series on Sharper Iron that goes through the book of Esther. Although God is never explicitly named in the book of Esther, He remains the One who directs all the events of the book. Happenings that seem coincidence, chance, or luck are truly God at work. He puts Mordecai and Esther in the right places and moments to work through them to deliver His people.
