ALL things are working for your good! As a believer, we are constantly faced with trials in our lives. Sometimes we may think that God is being unfair to us or may have even forgotten about us, but as we review the life of Queen Esther, I trust you will have a God perspective when the storms are raging, and fires keep igniting because ALL things are working for your good.
Read in this 5-day devotional the far-reaching consequences of pride, hate and bitterness. Even though Haman had received a promotion, he was never satisfied. The Bible says that “God resists the proud”. We see this clearly in the life of Haman, when God turned the tables on him and the gallows that he had set up for Mordecai became the gallows on which he was hung. Don’t be a Haman.
