Follow the King

Pastor Brian shares an in-depth look into the life of Haman, the representative of the kingdom of Satan in the Book of Esther. While he seemed to have everything a man could want, Haman spent too much time focused on the one thing he didn't have: worship and praise from Mordecai, the representative of the kingdom of God. Haman prepared a tree to impale Mordecai, but instead paraded Mordecai through the streets of the kingdom calling for others to worship him. One day, every knee--including Satan's--will bow to the true King of the world, Jesus!

As we return to the Book of Esther, Pastor Brian leads us to Esther's self-sacrificing proclamation of "If I perish, I perish." Standing outside the inner court of the king, we see the Christ-like decision of Esther to intercede on behalf of a condemned people.

Pastor Brian leads us back into the Book of Esther to look closer at the profile of Queen Esther--and how our hope cannot rest in Esther, but in the God of Esther. We see how God works behind the scenes to provide opportunities even today "for such a time as this." The repeated theme is that God uses imperfect people to accomplish His perfect purpose and plan.

Pastor Brian opens a series on the Book of Esther by highlighting that the most powerful man in the world at that time was nothing more than a "puppet king" -- allowing those around him to use his power as they pleased. This should encourage us, as Christians, to look beyond on our presidents and kings and look to our God who pulls all the strings.
