BOOMERANGIsampula

Mordeci and Esther experienced God’s Vindication and witnessed a Boomerang on their enemy Haman.  Haman sowed a plan to annihilate and destroy God’s chosen people and experienced a Boomerang. What Haman meant for harm for Mordeci and God’s chosen people is the very thing that came upon him. 

Matter of fact it was more than what he, his associates and family probably could conceptualize. Haman experienced several Boomerangs regarding Mordeci and Esther possibly originating from Haman’s pride regarding his promotion and his self-proclaimed prominence.

 Not that one hopes for boomerangs for individuals but the Word of God is replete of situations, scenarios and scriptural accounts of individuals originating a plan to hurt God’s anointed and the plan backfires on the originator and those in whom they are in association with which includes, family, friends, cities, coworkers, etc.  

 An individual who experienced a Boomerang effect was Haman. Haman experienced several Boomerangs in the book of Esther but one that we will focus on now is the events that transpired when Haman sought to execute Moredci and the entire Jewish race due to Mordeci not bowing down to Haman because of his promotion of being the prime minister under the Persian King Ahasuerus. 

Haman was truly an enemy to the Jews and sought to exterminate the entire race because one man Mordeci would not bow down to him. Haman went as far to have gallows built to hang Moredci on. But one particular night the king couldn’t sleep and had the book of the Chronicles read to him and it was discovered that Mordeci saved the kings life due to two workers plotting to kill him. 

When it was discovered, investigated and searched out the men were executed but Moredci was not honored for what he had done, and the king wanted to show favor and honor to him. Just when the king thought about what should be done regarding Mordeci, Haman walks in to converse with the king about putting Mordeci on the gallows. 

The king stops him in his tracks and asks “What should be done for the man the king delights to honor ?"Haman’s pride answered with a lavish public layout and the king commanded Haman to dress Moredci in a royal robe, place a royal crest on his head, leading him on a horse through the city proclaiming the favor of God and man on his life.
