Using the Old Testament book of Esther, Alistair Begg helps us step back to consider God's revealed plan for all of human history. With this perspective, we can better understand the relevance of Esther's story and see God's providence at work.
Pastor, I don't know if you get to see this but this series the Unseen God has helped me tremendously in one of the most depressing seasons I had to go through. I watched them again and again just to remind myself how wonderful and loving God is even when He seems to be so quiet. Thank you!
I do hope and pray to our shared Unseen God that you have conquered the depressing season by now and are able to appreciate the life you have. Probably not the life you wanted but a God-filled one, nevertheless.
@@marciamcgrail5889 thank you! I went back after 4 years and see why God put me through what he did. Now I'm a Sunday school teacher sharing the name of Jesus to other kids. God is good!
Videos help with along with reading the word. Thanks for the video
Wow! God is with us all along through Life. We must understand his Plan and Protection. Thank you for this teaching!
Alistair is a great servant of Christ Jesus.
Now King Xerxes was the ruling king
From India all the way to Cush
He lived a luxurious life
A lavish life of plenty and much
A big beautiful banquet
He hosted his third year
The who's who of everyone
Was expected to be there
Nobles and princes of the provinces
Were quite excited and certainly eager
The guest list included Persian military officials
All of the important leaders
The king wanted to impress his guests
He thought of many ways
Xerxes displayed his wealth and glory
For a full 180 days
He showed everyone the gold
The pearls and the silver
White linen, costly stones
Purple material, marble pillars
At the end of the party everyone had plenty of wine
The Kings wife, Vashti, and
The women partied at the same time
King Xerxes was high in spirits
From the wine on the seventh day
He commanded Vashti to come to him
Put her beauty on display
His AIDS delivered the message
The queen refused to go
The king burned with anger
How dare she tell him no
He called his team of advisors
Who understood the times
They said he must do something
Concerned about their own wives
They will dishonor us
If she can dishonor you
Send her a way to never again
Never to approach you
Let this be known to all
Make it an official decree
Then find someone else to be queen
Who is better than she
When the other wives hear this
Then they will all know
To obey their husbands and
Much respect they will show
Please with the advice
The king did what they proposed
Message delivered and received
Let every man rule his household
(By Esther Coleman-Spells)
