The Outcome Of The Decrees - Esther 9:1-19
The day the decrees are to be executed finally arrives. The enemies of the Jews still expect a victory, but God has prepared the Jews to defend themselves and stand against their enemies. This chapter shows the results of this day and the days following. When the first decree was signed many of the Jews were fasting, praying, and seeking God. God elevated Mordecai to Prime minister and a new decree was signed that allowed the Jews to defend themselves. We must remember God is in control of the outcome.
