A Series of Providential Events

April 11, 2021   /   Greg Powell   /   Esther 6   /   Calvary Baptist Church Red Bank

Chapter 5 left us on a cliffhanger. Let’s be honest, if we stopped reading the story at chapter 5, we’d wonder where God was and why He was allowing such things to happen. It seems like Haman is more in control than God is. But the story isn’t over. In chapter 6, we see a series of providential events.

I. Providential (1)

  • couldn’t the king sleep? That’s the real question. The answer is because of the providence of . 
  • We must never underestimate God’s sovereign ability to work in seemingly and insignificant things.
  • God uses the king’s insomnia as a major turning point in the story. God is doing amazing things while you are .

II. Providential (1-3)

  • When the of being saved from assassination was brought back to the king’s mind, we was no longer sleepy, but . 
  • God oversees not just our eternal rewards, but also our commendations and recognitions.

III. Providential (4-5)

  • “Who is out there in the court?”, he asks. Would you believe it, it’s . 
  • Wouldn’t it be interesting if the construction of Haman’s gallows made enough that it caused the king to not get any sleep?

IV. Providential (6-11)

  • Haman is so and self-absorbed that he thinks “in his heart” that the king is talking about him. 
  • We should always be amazed by God’s goodness to us, never it and never getting desensitized to it.
  • The irony, of course, is that Haman lays out specific desires for himself, and then the king commands him to make sure it all happens to Mordecai.

V. Providential . (12-14)

  • No adversary can take on God and expect to win! God will always His people and will be destroyed. 
  • Whatever you are facing, assured that God will work it out. He’s just not in the same you are.
  • Your life is a series of providential events. You can trust in God.
