Time for Celebration

August 1, 2017 by Brad Murphy

How do you know when it’s time to act or be silent? God’s at work even in the unseen, unnamed parts of our life. We can see this clearly in the lives of Mordecai and Esther. Listen to last Sunday’s teaching to learn more.

https://eaglelifechurch.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/2017-7-30-Time-for-Celebration.mp3

Discussion Questions: 

  1. Why do you think the Bible teaches people to include generosity in celebration?
  2. How can people use Christian celebrations to be reminded of what God has done? Give examples.
  3. What are some ways that God can use, or has used, “ungodly” leaders to accomplish his purposes?
  4. How does Esther’s story inspire people to respond in difficult times (eg. facing death, ungodly leaders)
  5. Pray for our nation & each other’s difficult circumstances.

Further Reading: Esther 9:20 to Esther 10:3

Time for Missions

July 18, 2017 by Brad Murphy

Esther’s story is history, but also prophecy. It’s a story of God’s providence in preserving his people, but it’s also a shadow of what is to come. Simply Esther story is our story. Like her, we are continually pruned through our circumstances but are we willing to allow God to shape us to be more like Him?

https://eaglelifechurch.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/7-16-17.mp3

Four ways to Grow as a sent one from God:

  1. Grow in TRUST| Esther 8:1-2
    On that day King Ahasuerus gave to Queen Esther the house of Haman, the enemy of the Jews. And Mordecai came before the king, for Esther had told what he was to her. And the king took off his signet ring, which he had taken from Haman, and gave it to Mordecai. And Esther set Mordecai over the house of Haman.
  2. Grow in RESPECT | Esther 8:3-8
    Then Esther spoke again to the king. She fell at his feet and wept and pleaded with him to avert the evil plan of Haman the Agagite and the plot that he had devised against the Jews. When the king held out the golden scepter to Esther, Esther rose and stood before the king. And she said, “If it please the king, and if I have found favor in his sight, and if the thing seems right before the king, and I am pleasing in his eyes, let an order be written to revoke the letters devised by Haman the Agagite, the son of Hammedatha, which he wrote to destroy the Jews who are in all the provinces of the king. For how can I bear to see the calamity that is coming to my people? Or how can I bear to see the destruction of my kindred?” Then King Ahasuerus said to Queen Esther and to Mordecai the Jew, “Behold, I have given Esther the house of Haman, and they have hanged him on the gallows, because he intended to lay hands on the Jews. 8 But you may write as you please with regard to the Jews, in the name of the king, and seal it with the king’s ring, for an edict written in the name of the king and sealed with the king’s ring cannot be revoked.”
  3. Grow inAUTHORITY | Esther 8:9-14
    The king’s scribes were summoned at that time, in the third month, which is the month of Sivan, on the twenty-third day. And an edict was written, according to all that Mordecai commanded concerning the Jews, to the satraps and the governors and the officials of the provinces from India to Ethiopia,  provinces, to each province in its own script and to each people in its own language, and also to the Jews in their script and their language.  And he wrote in the name of King Ahasuerus and sealed it with the king’s signet ring. Then he sent the letters by mounted couriers riding on swift horses that were used in the king’s service, bred from the royal stud, saying that the king allowed the Jews who were in every city to gather and defend their lives, to destroy, to kill, and to annihilate any armed force of any people or province that might attack them, children and women included, and to plunder their goods,  on one day throughout all the provinces of King Ahasuerus, on the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, which is the month of Adar. A copy of what was written was to be issued as a decree in every province, being publicly displayed to all peoples, and the Jews were to be ready on that day to take vengeance on their enemies.  So the couriers, mounted on their swift horses that were used in the king’s service, rode out hurriedly, urged by the king’s command. And the decree was issued in Susa the citadel.
  4. Grow in INFLUENCE| Esther 8:15-17
    Then Mordecai went out from the presence of the king in royal robes of blue and white, with a great golden crown[a] and a robe of fine linen and purple, and the city of Susa shouted and rejoiced. 16 The Jews had light and gladness and joy and honor. 17 And in every province and in every city, wherever the king’s command and his edict reached, there was gladness and joy among the Jews, a feast and a holiday. And many from the peoples of the country declared themselves Jews, for fear of the Jews had fallen on them.

Esther: Time for Reaping, Part I

July 6, 2017 by Brad Murphy

Esther’s story is history, but also prophecy. It’s a story of God’s providence in preserving his people, but it’s also a shadow of what is to come. Simply Esther story is our story. Like her, we are continually pruned through our circumstances but are we willing to allow God to shape us to be more like Him?

https://eaglelifechurch.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/2017-07-02.mp3

How to overcome our circumstance and let God redefine us:

A.The Seed is Growing even if you don’t see fruit | Esther 6:1-5

On that night the king could not sleep. And he gave orders to bring the book of memorable deeds, the chronicles, and they were read before the king. And it was found written how Mordecai had told about Bigthana and Teresh, two of the king’s eunuchs, who guarded the threshold, and who had sought to lay hands on King Ahasuerus.  And the king said, “What honor or distinction has been bestowed on Mordecai for this?” The king’s young men who attended him said, “Nothing has been done for him.” 4 And the king said, “Who is in the court?” Now Haman had just entered the outer court of the king’s palace to speak to the king about having Mordecai hanged on the gallows that he had prepared for him.  And the king’s young men told him, “Haman is there, standing in the court.” And the king said, “Let him come in.”

B. Discerning eyes will see what is growing even when the seed sprouts| Esther 5:6-8

 So Haman came in, and the king said to him, “What should be done to the man whom the king delights to honor?” And Haman said to himself, “Whom would the king delight to honor more than me?” And Haman said to the king, “For the man whom the king delights to honor,  let royal robes be brought, which the king has worn, and the horse that the king has ridden, and on whose head a royal crown is set.

You are not alone. God is there right beside you, You are not alone. God is there right beside you, just turn to Him and he will care for you.

You also have God's church to help and care. Don't run from God, run to Him.
Jesus took it, he blessed it, he broke it, and he Jesus took it, he blessed it, he broke it, and he gave it away.

How is the blessing to be known unless it is given away?

You are blessed to be a blessing. Give Freely.
