THE GRAND PURIM

Scripture: Esther 9:20-32

 “And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.” Colossians 3:16-17 (NIV)

Purim is a Hebrew word meaning to cast lots. It signifies the day Haman had chosen based on the lots to wipe out the Jews. His plans were aborted by God after the Jews had sought the face of God. Their evil plan against God’s children became their personal experience.
Till today, the Jews celebrate Purim as the day when destruction of the Jews was turned to victory.

God has made a grand Purim for all men on the cross of Calvary. On that day, he turned the destruction of mankind into victory for all those who will believe. God is constantly turning the wicked plans of the devil concerning us to victories, creating a daily Purim for us.

As a Christian, you should acknowledge everyday as your Purim and celebrate. You have to show gratitude to God daily for his mercies, love and victories over secret battles plotted by our enemies. Each day marks a new chapter of successes against failures, disappointment, depression and satanic plot. Count your blessing and name them one by one and you will see and be surprised at what the Lord has done. Rejoice in the doings of the Lord because the enemy and his cohort have failed.

PRAYER:  Lord, help me rejoice for the daily victories you wrought on my behalf in Jesus name.

FAITH BYTE: I celebrate my victory for the enemy has been defeated.
