THE UNCHANGING WORD
Esther 8:7a-8, 17a
"Then King Ahasureus said to Queen Esther and Mordecai the Jew,....'You yourselves write a decree concerning the Jews, as you please, in the king's name. Whatever is written in the king's name and sealed with the king's signet ring no one can revoke' .... And in every province and city wherever the king's command and decree came, the Jews had joy and gladness, a feast and a holiday...."
When the Jews received the letter written by Mordecai giving them permission to avenge themselves, there was great joy. They knew that it had the approval of the king because it was sealed with his signet ring, and that nothing could revoke his decree. As Christians, we also have letters written by godly men that have the stamp of approval of the King. What they have written is true, and nothing can revoke it. That gives us great confidence and joy. God is faithful to fulfill His Word. The King has promised, "Heaven and earth shall pass away, but My words shall not pass away" (Matthew 24:35). "The word of the Lord endures forever" (I Peter 1:25).
Today's Thought: The Word of the King can be trusted – it will not change.
Have a joyful day. Love you.
