ESTHER: WOMAN OF FAITH !

ESTHER

I can imagine a land where the King has a feast, but I cannot imagine that

He’d marry the least.

Yet this is what happened to the beautiful Esther, raised by Mordeci,

Because she honored the God Most High.

You see, the story starts out with the beautiful Vasti who GAVE AWAY her throne,

When the king sent for her to show her off; she replied: LEAVE ME ALONE!

So the king was so mad, that he saw red in a blur and before he knew he’d said: I’ll fix her!

So they wrote a new law and called it a decree…the next thing we all knew:

THEY HAD BANNED VASTI!

So here’s the king scouting out all of the virgins in town, they were pouring in from miles around…

In the meantime, Mordeci, was spiritually led to get Esther into the mold, he had a

Few friends but he wasn’t to bold,

Mordeci told Esther to keep a secret of who she was in her faith,

None was to know she was Jewish; that part could wait,

One day on the job, it came to Mordeci’s own attention that the king was to be killed and he put an end to the plan,

It went down in the record books, the matter at hand, but no one told the king.

One fine day the king made his rounds to see what he’d see,

And there beheld Esther, fine and lovely.

After that he was smitten and he was so led to place the Queen’s crown on top of her head!

Now Haman was an advisor unto the king full of his own vanity,

All bowed to him except Mordeci and that gave him insanity,

This evil came upon him and he got the blues, he then

Decided to place his hatred for Mordeci on ALL of the Jews,

So he got the King’s ear and drew him into the plot to kill the

Jews on the sly, but really he just hated Esther’s uncle Mordeci,

There went out a notice throughout the land; it seemed no one was to care; the Jews were to be killed on the 13th of Adair.

Angels were moving around behind the scene,

And Haman was getting more and more mean,

The King laid down to sleep and all of a sudden from out of the Blue; he realized that Mordeci had saved him from assassination and that this was so true,

If I were Mordeci, I’d panic too; he knew that Esther the queen would know what to do.

He sent Word to her of the edict passed down; for she was the queen she could turn it around,

Esther was between a rock and a hard hard place. For she recalled what had happened to Vashti’s face.

All kinds of emotions began to rush forth in her soul, she’d lost her parents and Mordeci had raised her with love, no one knew she was Jewish, the King had certain protocols which if she violated, she could be killed, he loved her she thought but even he had limitations, not knowing what to do it could have taken it’s toll!

But, she said: Tell the people to FAST FOR ME three days. Mordeci obeyed and went on his way.

The Bible does not say Esther was spiritually grounded but you have to know that indeed is a fact…so God gave her Favor and she moved on

Esther went before the King with a certain countenance and The Spirit too,

When the King heard her dilemma, he assured her he knew what to do, Haman was hanged from the Gallows and the decree was rescinded...

The Death Proclamation over all of the Jews was ended,

So Imagine Esther raised as an orphan, who becomes a queen,

with a husband who loves her who’s king of the land …in a story of intrigue that was not a dream, and a God who delivers her from all of her cares lifting her up in her time of great despair! ESTHER WAS BLESSED TO BE A BLESSING!
