GOD’S RESTORATION POWER

Scripture: Esther 9:1-14

“For Mordecai was great in the king’s house, and his fame went out throughout all the provinces: for this man Mordecai waxed greater and greater.” Esther 9:4 (KJV)

The events around which our lives are woven are subject to God’s control. God sometimes permits pain, but he is able to transform the pain into joy as we rely fully on Him

Mordecai endured the loss of relatives and homeland. He had to adopt his cousin Esther and brought her up as his own daughter.
He raised her up and she eventually became queen in the land of Persia. He endured the ignominy of remaining at the king’s gate, was hated for being a Jew and his life was threatened. He ended up in sack clothes weeping at the palace gate. Eventually, everything turned around for him. He was honoured by the king, given authority to make decrees using the king’s seal and became the symbol of hope to his people.

Whatever you are going through today is only a light affliction compared to the glory that awaits you. God will turn the situation around to favour you if you do not give up. The Most High is your dwelling place and your refuge - no harm will befall you. He has given his angels charge over you and they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone. As he restored Mordecai and countless others, he will also do the same for you.

PRAYER: Lord, help me to endure trials and hard times to your glory in Jesus name.

FAITH BYTE: By the grace of God I endure persecution and the glory of God is revealed in my life daily.
