Scripture:
Esther 9:1 "On that day, the enemies of the Jews had hoped to overpower them, but quite the opposite happened. it was the Jews who overpowered their enemies".
Observation:
On the same day the annihilation of the Jews was planned for, the Jews were given permission to kill anyone they wanted to. The favor of God was resting on Esther and Mordecai to the point that their enemies were scared to death of them. Whatever they told the king was done for them. God took what was meant for bad, turned it into something good and used the same day mean to be a curse and turned it into a day of blessing for His people.
Application:
There is nothing too difficult for God. he is omnipotent, the all-powerful God. he will not be mocked by arrogant little humans He created. When He decides to turn the tables and you see His vengeance, everyone sees the awesomeness of God. He said, "vengeance is mine, I will repay". When things are going bad in your life, don't get a revengeful spirit. Rather, remain and grow stronger in your walk with God and let Him take revenge for you. John Bevere says that once we take revenge, we stop God from taking His vengeance. I would rather y enemies fall into God's hands than mine anyway. Trust God and know He can turn around the worst of problems.
Prayer:
Open my eyes to see You as You are. You are the all-powerful God of the universe. There is nothing too difficult for You. You alone deserve all praise and glory. You are amazing and I am blessed to be called Your son. Thank You for caring for me. Thanks for divine reversals. Help me trust You more each day. I love You.
Jeff
