精彩的逆轉 A Wonderful Reversal

這個世界有很多精彩的逆轉, 無論在運動場上, 在政治上, 在商業上, 本來已經快要輸了, 但最後一刻來了一個精彩的逆轉; 以斯帖記第八章我們也看見一個精彩的逆轉, 包括: 1.權柄的逆轉 2.政策的逆轉 3.地位的逆轉。

In Esther chapter 8, Mordecai, Esther, and the Jewish people are spared and even given immense power by royal decree. This week, Rev. Jeremiah Cheung reminds us that God will come through for His children in the darkest times and turn even the most dire situations in His favor.

1. Start with a prayer

2. Engage one another (15-30 mins)

3. Engage the mind (15-20 mins)
• Read the passage. How did things turn out for Mordecai, Esther, and the Jews?
• How does Mordecai/Esther foreshadow Christ?
• What did you learn about God through the passage?

4. Engage the heart (15-20 mins)
• What about Mordecai/Esther that you would like to imitate?
• With what you have learned about God, what does this say about you being His child?
• Where do you see God’s hands in your day to day life?
• In your relationships, identify situations where you need to be more intentional in living out Christlikeness.

5. Engage the hands (15-20 mins)
• As God’s child, how should this translate into your day to day decisions? Be specific.
• Identify 1-2 things that you will start doing towards being more intentional in living out Christlikeness.

6. Engage with God in prayer (20-30 mins)
• Thank God that because of His sacrifice on the cross we are no longer living in bondage but have overcome it through His grace.
• Seek God’s forgiveness for the times when we tend to grumble instead of relying and putting our faith in God’s sovereignty and power to turn things around.
– Pray for a steadfast heart that despite being in a seemingly impossible situation, God is working for our good and for His will to be done on earth as it is in heaven.
