On that day, He defeated death, He took back the keys of eternity and delivered salvation to humanity as a gift to His Father. Then on the third day, He rose again, and the scriptures say; He took captivity captive (Eph 4). This means that we have victory because of Jesus' resurrection on that third day. It truly is a magnificent and cosmic story of Amazing Grace.

The stories of the Old Testament are filled with hints and shadows of the person and work of Jesus as Messiah. Here in our story, we see Esther come into her full authority as queen and initiate the deliverance of the entire nation of God's people on the third day.

On the third day Esther put on her royal robes and stood in the inner court of the palace, in front of the king’s hall. The king was sitting on his royal throne in the hall, facing the entrance. (Esther 5:1)
