Esther part 8

Rooted Fellowship
Esther 7:1-10 (CSB)
In this climactic chapter, Queen Esther finally reveals her Jewish identity and pleads for her people’s lives, exposing Haman’s murderous plot before King Ahasuerus. Ironically, the gallows Haman constructed for Mordecai become his own undoing—showing how God’s providence thwarts even the most sinister schemes.
In this sermon, we see that while God’s name isn’t mentioned, His unseen hand is unmistakably at work. Esther’s courage and willingness to risk everything point us to the ultimate Savior, Jesus, who gave up His heavenly throne to rescue us. When we trust God’s faithfulness and step forward in obedience—like Esther—we become part of His unfolding plan to deliver and restore His people.
