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.

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 the cowardly, unbeli
