LESSON 306

ESTHER: CASE STUDY IN VESSELS UNTO HONOUR PART 1

Bible Text: Esther : 1

INTRODUCTION

The Bible teaches that there are kinds of people or “Vessels” in any great house. Some of these vessels are unto honour and some unto dishonour. II Timothy 2:2. To be a vessel unto honour is a costly endeavour, but a very worthwhile one. As we study the life of Esther, may we find grace to become vessels unto honour for God in Jesus name. Amen.

1. THERE IS A QUEEN ONLY BECAUSE THERE IS A KING: THERE ARE CHRISTIANS ONLY BECAUSE THERE IS CHRIST

Ahaesuerus reigned over a large kingdom and was very wealth Esther 1, Psalms 24:1. But there is a king above all kings, who reigns over all and owns all Psalms 19:1-3; Haggai 2:8; Isaiah 55:1. His name is Jesus Christ. Queen Vashti was free to enjoy as much as she wanted provided she remembered that she was queen because she belonged to a king Revelations 19:7-9; Psalms 34:10; John 10:10; Philippians 4:13, 19. Every Christian is free to alive life more abundant provided he/she puts Christ first John 15:5; Daniel 4:28-33.

2. WATCH AND PRAY

We must realize that all gifts are from God and are to be used for Him James. 1:17; John 3:27; Romans 13:7. Consequently, we must always have time for God because honour must be given to Him unto whom honour is due Philippians 2:9-10; Isaiah 15:22-28; I Samuel 16:14; Luke 14:11; John 15:2; Mark 13:35-37; I Thessalonians 5:6. The enemy is also constantly looking for an opportunity to strike and displace a vessel unto honour II Timothy 4:5. Watch and pray.

Further ReadingRomans 12:10; John 10;10.

Who’s Who in Hell by Kenneth E. Hagin

Everyone will face  eternity one day. The righteous enter “life eternal” Matt. 25:46 , and the unrighteous are cast into hell or the lake of fire Rev. 20:15 . The lake of fire is the final dwelling place for those whose names are not written in the Lamb’s Book of Life  Rev. 20:15 . We should thank God for the revelation His Word gives us concerning Heaven. If we are in Christ, we are Heaven-bound!  We should also thank God for what scripture says about hell . Those who haven’t made Jesus their Lord are not  Heaven-bound. Christians need to reach these people with the Gospel. We must let them know there is a Heaven to gain and a hell to shun. Who’s Who There once were books that listed people who achieved a degree of prominence in the arts and sciences, in business, and in various professions. Sometimes it’s interesting to know “who’s who” in life. The Bible also gives us a “who’s who” in hell, so to speak. Revelation 21:8 (NKJV) 8. But t...

A Two-fold Calling - CEO and Youth Pastor by Jay DePalmo

“ WHAT AM I  going to do?” The writing was on the wall - his job wouldn’t last much longer. Young and newly married, Jay DePalmo, a ’96 graduate of Rhema Bible Training College, was about to take another step in God’s plan. A building caught his eye as his car pulled up to an intersection. God’s voice surprised him, _“Go in and apply.”_ It was the strongest Jay had ever heard the Lord speak in his heart—not audibly, just in his heart—so clear that he felt like turning around as if someone was in the backseat! Instead of continuing home, he turned the wheel, parked his car and went inside “Hobby Lobby” for the first time in his life. Climbing the Corporate Ladder Within a week Jay was offered a co-manager position. He and his wife, Amanda (an ’05 RBTC graduate), packed their bags. The 18-year adventure would take them through Indiana, Ohio, Oklahoma, and Georgia before returning to the corporate office in Oklahoma City. Every time Jay moved for his job, there wo...
