Esther: God's Unseen Presence--A Providential Approach
Last time, Mordecai took his stand against Haman. He may have been ready to die for his convictions, but he certainly wasn’t ready for all his people to die for them.
As Mordecai learns of Haman’s plan, he is overcome with grief, tearing his clothes, and covering himself with ashes.
Esther has been queen for about 4 years by this point. She is as established as she could be. It seems that life in the harem has kept her unaware of what was happening. When she learns of Mordecai’s grief, she tries to send him new clothes.
Mordecai explains to her what is happening, and commands her to go to the king. Esther hesitates, knowing that she cannot legally, safely, approach the king unrequested.
This is where the book changes direction. Up till now, Mordecai and Esther had taken the easier path. Certainly, God’s providence has been at play, but our main characters have been rather passive.
Now is the time for action, and both Mordecai and Esther will begin to see some of the bigger picture.
As we examine Esther and Mordecai wrestling with their situation, we are going to see 5 truths that apply to our lives as well as theirs.
