Queen Esther: Lesson Nine

God does not forget what you did.

That same night, the king could not sleep, so he had the book of records read to him.

Esther 6:1 (KJV): On that night could not the king sleep, and he commanded to bring the book of records of the chronicles; and they were read before the king.

It was written there that Mordecai had told of the plot against the king's life.

Esther 6:2 (KJV): And it was found written, that Mordecai had told of Bigthana and Teresh, two of the king's chamberlains, the keepers of the door, who sought to lay hand on the king Ahasuerus.

Nothing had ever been done for Mordecai. He was not rewarded right away, but it was written down.

Esther 6:3 (KJV): And the king said, What honour and dignity hath been done to Mordecai for this? Then said the king's servants that ministered unto him, There is nothing done for him.

The king told Haman to give that honour to Mordecai, the man Haman wanted to hang.

Esther 6:10 (KJV): Then the king said to Haman, Make haste, and take the apparel and the horse, as thou hast said, and do even so to Mordecai the Jew, that sitteth at the king's gate: let nothing fail of all that thou hast spoken.

God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love.

Hebrews 6:10 (KJV): For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister.
