ESTHER: CASE STUDY IN VESSELS UNTO HONOUR PART 2
Bible Text: ESTHER: 2: 1-18.
INTRODUCTION:
In the Iast part of this series, as we studied what happened to Vashti the former queen of king Ahaseurus, we saw how God wants the Christian to enjoy life to the full provided he puts God first all the time. We also saw the need to watch and pray constantly. In this second part, we are introduced to Esther proper. May God bless us richly as we study in Jesus Name. Amen.
1. THERE IS NO ROOM FOR A VACUUM IN NATURE PHYSICAL OR SPIRITUAL
When one queen fell, there was soon a suggestion for a replacement. This is because there is no room for a vacuum in nature Esther 2:1-18; Matthew 12:43-45, I Samuel 16:14; Psalms 51:11; John 1:11-12; Romans 11:11-21; Ephesians 2:5; Romans 9:15; I Peter 5:5; I Sam. 15:22; John 15:16; Jeremiah 1:4-5; Isaiah 49:1; Psalms 75:5-7; Matthew 23:12; Acts 15:18. Esther found grace and favour with everyone because she was humble. Obedient and submissive Hebrews 13:5-6. Consequently, God who always respects the humble and is a help of the helpless promoted her Psalms 46:1-3.
2. MANY ARE CALLED, FEW ARE CHOSEN
Many virgins were invited, but only one was chosen and the chosen one was the excellent one Matthew 20:16. However, God can turn a slave to a queen and give victory to whomsoever, pleases Him I Peter 2:9; I Corinthians 9:24. that is why those who remained vessels unto honour forever are those who remained obedient to God forever I Corinthians 9:24; Psalms 113:7-8; Ecclesiastes 9:11; Deuteronomy 8:10-14; 17-20.
