With awe of our most Holy God, we giveth Him praise for the strength and courage He graciously imparted into Esther!
Notwithstanding the absence of a loving mother to raiseth her, Hadassah astoundingly became a humble queen who feared The Highest. And it was His holiness and eternal power, that Esther trusted and turned to to delivereth herself and her people, the Jews, from the wicked plot of Haman.
Excerpt from the Exposition Commentary to Esther: Courage of a Queen by Apostle Tonya
But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon Him; and with His stripes we are healed. Isaiah 53:5
Master, I cometh before Thee to pray for those who are afflicted in their bodies! Might Thou who is merciful and the same yesterday, today, and forever, visit them and healeth your Children today?
Oh, Dearest Master, I beseech Thee to even quickeneth whom Thou will. Amen!
And Jesus said, Make the men sit down. Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand. St. John 6:10
I might say, it well so agreed with the Godhead, our Lord, who was declared to be the Son of God, with power and authority principally planned that most of His Ministry would occur around the shores of the Sea of Galilee.
Ofttimes, as we read the Gospels of God, as recorded in St. John 6, of the Bread of Life’s most intimate teachings that even of Christ sitting upon the mountains and our Lord discerning the multitude were most famished.
And Jesus took the loaves; and when He had given thanks, He distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to them that were set down; and likewise of the fishes as much as they would. St. John 6:11
In the sacred pages of this Chapter, the beloved Disciple John fundamentally records Christ’s concern for His followers who spiritually hungered. In this, Christ provided the nourishment for their souls and further supplied their needs with sustenance.
And so, surely, the Son of God who is the same yesterday, today, and forever remaineth faithful to supplieth our needs according to His riches in glory!
Might I say, thy Lord knows I most love the comfort and blessedness of His fellowship, resting with Him writing in my journal and enjoying a hot cup of my favorite tea!
Surely, it is most precious to me to record my thoughts on Scriptures and the sacred words from the Blessed Master.
In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you. 1 Thessalonians 5:18
I gather I shall say for November’s Monthly Glory Offer, it is my heart to release a new gratitude and prayer journal from my line of journals.
Oh, how it is surely my prayer you shall most delight in the blessedness of the Dearest Comforter’s presence abounding in thanksgiving as you record your hearts within its pages!
And so, the ‘Abounding in Thanksgiving’ journal shall be available on November 10th on the ministry’s website. I may say also the journal shall be available in select retail stores in December!
The LORD is slow to anger, and great in power, and will not at all acquit the wicked: the LORD hath His way in the whirlwind and in the storm, and the clouds are the dust of His feet. Nahum 1:3
Surely, I giveth our Holy God the praise for the most splendid vision whereby I beheld yesterday afternoon.
I shall say on the occasion of resting in the presence of the Spirit of God, He suddenly revealed a most profound cloud upon the ceiling! How I shall say the blessedness of the cloud was most detailed with its fluffiness, and because of its magnificence it appeared to cometh from the very clouds adorning the blue sky into my room!
Oh, how I hath tears at the generosity and lovingkindness of our Blessed Father toward us!
I might say, as Believers of Christ, our hearts should be most reverential toward the Blessed Holy Spirit. Further, we must hath a heart to desireth pure intimacy with Him. In this pursuit, we shall surely build a most sacred Friendship with the Third Person of the Godhead, who is our faithful Comforter on the Earth!
Continuing on, might I say, the Holy Bible remindeth us of the blessedness of being still in the presence of the Spirit of God. Chiefly, I shall say I am speaking of Psalm 46:10, wherefore the verse reads:
‘Be still, and know that I am God.’
Certainly, it is continuing in daily rest with the Spirit of God, wherefore shall strengthen and train our spiritual hearing to hearest Him.
And so, how else may we cometh to know the Blessed Holy Spirit, who principally enables us to teacheth and witness about the Son of God?
Oh, I hath found it is only in abiding and worshiping His Holiness!
Might I say, in preparation for ministry, the Blessed One shall first call His servant into a season of consecration, isolation and pruning to prepareth him or her for His Service. For our most Holy God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob must invariably be glorified in His vessels.
Esther, whose Hebrew name was Hadassah, childhood story was not a fairytale. As a matter of fact, as an orphan, she was raised by her beloved cousin, Mordecai, who was her guardian and only parent. In attending to study her childhood and upbringing, we may discern Mordecai raised Hadassah to hath fear of our Holy One.
Peradventure, the upbringing of Mordecai disciplined Esther, the Queen for a blessed life of prayer, unwavering faith, and reverence unto the Holy One of Israel.
May it please our most Holy God if I returneth to the sunset where the Eternal Son of God and His Disciples observed Passover! For on that occasion, that is, on the eventide of Passover, the very Son of God was betrayed by His Disciple, Judas Iscariot.
Continuing on, I shall say, Judas seemingly premeditated his betrayal of the Son of Man even before the disciple was at our Lord’s sacred Table!
Might we read the texts describing this profound eternal truth?
‘Then entered satan into Judas surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve.
And he went his way, and communed with the chief priests and captains, how he might betray Him unto them. St. Luke 22:3-4
Most astonishing, isn’t it?
Notwithstanding the Son of God’s manifest knowledge of the betrayer’s earlier steps wherein Judas Iscariot secretly departed from the blessed fellowship and ministry of Messiah, the Passover meal continued.
Might I conclude for now and say, (with this most holy imagery of the establishment of the Holy Communion in mind), the solemnity of the Passover was prepared by the Apostles John and Peter for the Son of God and the remaining apostles. St. Luke 22:8
And so, with deliberate reverence to the Lordship of Christ, I may say both of the apostles principally were most closest to the Heart of Christ! Amen.
And He took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying,Drink ye all of it. St. Matthew 26:27
Might I say, the Eternal Son of God appeareth to hath desired to grant encouragement to His Disciples before His earthly Departure during the Last Supper. In this, the Son of God principally granted the apostles the most blessed promises of what would be awaiting them in eternity as they would be eternally reunited with Christ.
And so, I may say, it was perhaps in part Christ’s reward to them for their loyalty and service unto Him.
