Topic: God Still Answers Prayers
Text: Esther 7:2-5
²And the king said again unto Esther on the second day at the banquet of wine, What is thy petition, queen Esther? and it shall be granted thee: and what is thy request? and it shall be performed, even to the half of the kingdom.
³Then Esther the queen answered and said, If I have found favour in thy sight, O king, and if it please the king, let my life be given me at my petition, and my people at my request:
⁴For we are sold, I and my people, to be destroyed, to be slain, and to perish. But if we had been sold for bondmen and bondwomen, I had held my tongue, although the enemy could not countervail the king's damage.
⁵Then the king Ahasuerus answered and said unto Esther the queen, Who is he, and where is he, that durst presume in his heart to do so?
🎺 Salient Points
🔸️ When it becomes tough, go on your kneed: God will surely answer.
🔸️ Est. 4:15-17. Time comes when the ties break with even the person you have good relations with: if you have any problem, first present it before God.
🔸️ A man of prayer is a favoured man. If you want to attract favour, learn how to pray. If you remain in your prayer life as believers in Christ, the devil can have no victory over you.
🔸️ You may be in a situation wherein people mock you and your God; know that God is surely there for you and will answer you.
🔸️ Whenever you are bold, your enemies will be afraid. If you're not bold, they will feel their craft is working.
🔸️ Esther, Mordecai and the Jews' prayer brought about hundreds of years deliverance from their enemies.
🔸️ For those who trust in God, He can never allow them to miss the way.
✅WATCH WORD
🎺 God still answers prayers: only trust in Him solely.
WORTHY IS THE LAMB.
