Divine Intervention

Esther 5:14

Then his wife Zeresh

and all his friends said to him,

"Let a gallows be made, fifty cubits high,

and in the morning suggest to the king

that Mordecai be hanged on it;

then go merrily with the king to the banquet."

And the thing pleased Haman;

so he had the gallows made.

In response to intercession,

GOD intervenes at the right time

to interrupt the plans of the evil one.

Esther 6:1-3

That night the king could not sleep.

So one was commanded

to bring the book of the records of the chronicles;

and they were read before the king.

And it was found written

that Mordecai had told of Bigthana and Teresh,

two of the king's eunuchs, the doorkeepers

who had sought to lay hands on King Ahasuerus.

Then the king said,

"What honor or dignity has been bestowed

on Mordecai for this?"

And the king's servants who attended him said,

"Nothing has been done for him."

Esther 6:4

So the king said,

"Who is in the court?"

Now Haman had just entered

the outer court of the king's palace

to suggest that the king hang Mordecai

on the gallows that he had prepared for him.

Like the board games Drafts, Chess and Bridge,

GOD versus the sinister moves of the devil

In response to intercession.

GOD’S moves are perfectly timed and accurate!

Esther 6:10

Then the king said to Haman,

"Hurry, take the robe and the horse,

as you have suggested,

and do so for Mordecai the Jew

who sits within the king's gate!

Leave nothing undone of all that you have spoken."

If you have not been rewarded for some good work,

wait patiently.

GOD will fully reward you

at the right time.
