Today, we want to look at another lesson to be learnt from Mordecal. In our Fire Scripture, when Mordecai learnt of what had been done by their enemies, he rent his clothes and became naked. Esther’s male servant had to go to intimate her of what was happening, and she sent fresh raiment to Mordecai, but he received it not.

Therefore, we can safely conclude that Mordecai had hope in God’s ways and provisions for their deliverance. One of the most celebrated verses in the Bible came from the lips of Mordecai, when he was speaking to her (Esther) about why she must be the one to tell King Ahasuerus of Haman’s plot. He did not make less the truth that when the king discovers Esther’s Jewish heritage, she would have the same fate as all the rest in the community.

However, he instilled in her the hope that the difficult position she was in was ordained by God for her. He said, “Yet who knows whether you have come to the Kingdom for such a time as this? (Esther 4:14). After this response of encouragement. Esther knew that she needed to connect to God through fasting and prayer to leam of God’s plan for them in the circumstance. This may be the reason why Mordecai told Esther not to reveal her Jewish heritage from the start, that he knows well before she did that this would be an important factor that would not only save the lives of her people, but also that of herself, Mordecai, and even the king.

Dear reader of this devotional, no matter what you are passing through, you must believe in God’s ways and provisions, because what God cannot do, does not exist. He is a capable, reliable and wonderful Father. We must therefore believe in Him, His ways and His provisions to sustain us.
