No coincidence! / on 4:15-17
Are there any coincidences in this world? It's a coincidence when you see the world. But from the eyes of faith, it is no coincidence. It may sound like a coincidence, but it is God's intervention, providence, and history.
Esther's words are unlikely to happen, but it did happen. Incidental events are recorded. Looking at a few?
1. Elected to Queen Esther (Chapter 2)
The Israeli Basaphor was intoxicated at the feast of King Ahasuere's excretion, and was proudly called by Queen Vashdi. Is the queen a norigaegam, a display item? I don't go thinking.
King fire-dethroned. Wahoo Recruitment Advertisement We received a huge number of applications. It is not just Miss Korea, a world power that the nations are running, but Miss Universia.
A group of gyusu to give it up. Depending on how women dress up (don’t be fooled, let’s see them again), high-ranking officials, chaebol groups, prisoners (cream), orphans (though uncles take care of them) 12 months of education and training between thousands of people
They go to the king one by one and give them everything they ask for. No decorations, clothes, or requests, just the basics. I was chosen from among them, it was a coincidence. But is it a coincidence? No, it's God's story.
2. Another coincidence. Mordecai - Report of the plot to kill the king (2:19)
Conspiracy to kill the two gatekeepers. If discovered, it will be the third generation to be destroyed. Great job planning, thoroughly concealed, and set it as a top secret, but Mordecai heard it. Report Esther to the king and escape the crisis. Mordecai gets the honor of being recorded in the royal diary.
3. Swallows are drawn in January (Nisan month) and decided as December (Adar month) (3 sheets)
Haman's servants go out of their way with pride, and when they enter the palace, they all bow down, and they kneel like a god and are worshiped. Only Mordecai is stiff. Refusal of command, "I worship only the Jewish God." He is so angry that he is not satisfied with killing only himself, so he decides to kill all the Jews. embellish the strategy. After seeing the king, lottery was drawn in December. During the 11 months, God's intervention in preparing for the salvation of the Jews.
4. Goes to King Esther (Chapter 4)
He went out without calling the king and was killed on the spot. I am forgiven for giving it out with a baton.
Esther goes out to beg for the rescue of her uncle and the Jews. To fall in love with the heart of the king of God. 5:2, 3 I will give you half of the kingdom. When men fall in love, it seems that they don't care. (I don't see anything)
It's been over a month since the king didn't look after him. But who made me fall in love with the king's heart like this? It is God. No coincidence.
5. The king can't sleep, read the royal diary, read Mordecai's contribution (Chapter 6)
Not to sleep, nor to the contents of what he had read, Haman came to pay for the fact that he had erected a tree 23 m high and put Mordecai on it. He said to Haman, "What shall the king do to the man whom he respects most?" Know that you are, and proclaim the crown, the robe, the horse, "those whom the king honors will do this."
You go and do Mordecai. Is it coincidence?
(1) Did this universe happen by chance? A universe formed by chance? Is it rotating in a certain orbit? Does the Earth rotate around once by chance?
(2) A natural coincidence? Spring, summer, autumn, winter, clouds, rain?
(3) Has human history happened by chance?
(4) Does each individual's life happen by chance?
There is no coincidence. God's history interference, providence.
“Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing, but not one of them shall fall to the ground, unless God permits it” (Matthew 10:29).
It means that everything is in the work of God, and that "even the hairs of his head have been numbered" means that he intervenes in such detail.
We believe that God is interfering with us. home, church, business,
Like parents and children, like shepherds and sheep, do not neglect or neglect.
After choosing and saving you, you do not end the interference.
Period of God's Intervention - Salvation is not the end. Intervention ends when you enter the kingdom of heaven. He intervenes and leads them to be holy and without blemish.
5. Attitude towards things happening in life
(1) Several events are not coincidental. God has a will must be differentiated
Romans 12 The life of the saints after being saved, saying, "Let us discern what is the will of God that is good, perfect, and pleasing." Search and find through prayer. make you realize Even the prophet Balaam opened the mouth of the donkey and communicated God's will.
(2) It is impossible to discern the will of God. Don't complain or complain. Be patient.
Do we know what God is doing? none. I couldn't understand Job's own suffering. complain Then God, chapters 38-41, answer me. Ask Job. There are more than 110 none can answer.
[KJV] Job 42:3 Who is it that conceals reason with ignorance? I have spoken of things beyond my own understanding, and things that are beyond my understanding and difficult to comprehend. Repentance
There are many things we do not know about God's history. Why do you say you don't understand one of my life? should not complain Be patient.
(3) Let's pray for God's work, "If we die, we die"
If you pray because it is God's work, God will solve it for you. Ezekiel 36:37 “The liberation of the captivity, yet you must ask me that the people of Israel be thus done.”
When you pray, God works. When we fasted, God's work happened by chance.
