WHEN THE LORD REMEMBERS YOU (15)

Post date: Jul 22, 2019 3:49:54 AM

Your ordinary state today and now is not the last of you; it is not the end of you; it is not the end of any of your prayers or your dreams or desires, your ordinary position today does not mean God had left you behind in His plans and blessings. God can still change things around you and He can still change you; God is still interested in you and He will do what He had planned and desired and designed for you; your destiny in Him had not changed and your rewards from Him will still come despite the delays and the frustrations and disappointment you have suffered and also experienced from men. God never forgets and He never rejects those who follow Him, those who wait on Him patiently and those who trust in Him with all their hearts. Christ Jesus said, “My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they will never die or perish, and no one can steal or snatch them out of my hand. My Father gave my sheep to me. He is greater than all, and no person can steal or snatch my sheep out of my Father’s hand.” John 10:27-28. That is an unchanged assurance we have in Christ Jesus. Men or people may look down on you, disrespect you, humiliate you, abuse you shamefully treat you and call you derogatory names because of who, what, and where you are right now and what you are currently or had experienced in life, but despite all that, God still has a plan for you and for your life and He will do what He had said of you and promised in your life.

That was the case and situation in the life of Mordecai. In his beginning, he had no one to respect or regard him except Esther his cousin; no one to rely on or relate to except his God and Esther. He was looked down upon and disrespected by all men and Haman, yet in their plans and thoughts against him, God had a plan for his life, God had a design for him in that same place and before the same people who refused to recognize or respect him and his opinion, God had a position for him to occupy and God had an honor to give to him, and God did not fail. God will not fail in His plans for your life. Remain faithful and follow and trust Jesus Christ our Lord, He had saved you, He will definitely redeem you, He will definitely rescue you and He will definitely restore, honor and bless you. Irrespective of what you are going through today, your day of remembrance and your day restoration, your day recognition, your day of fruitfulness, your day of honor, your day of joy, your day celebration and your day of praise before the Almighty God will definitely come. God will not allow you to remain a destitute forever, He will not allow His dreams in you to remain dormant and unfulfilled and He will not allow your cries to be permanent.

Just because God remembered Mordecai just once, his name was immediately removed from records of the common men in the streets. He moved from being an ordinary man to being a man with honor, respect, authority, and very important; he moved from being just a guardian and a counselor and a cousin to Esther to being a great and influential man in a foreign nation. “There was a certain Jew in Susa whose name was Mordecai the son of Jair, the son of Shimei, the son of Kish, a Benjamite, who had been deported from Jerusalem with the captives who had been exiled with Jeconiah king of Judah, whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had exiled. He was the guardian of Esther, his uncle’s daughter. The young woman was beautiful of form and face; and when her father and mother died, Mordecai took her in as his daughter. King Xerxes demanded taxes everywhere, even from the cities on the land and the seacoast. And all the great achievements Xerxes did by his power and authority are written in the record books of the kings of Media and Persia. Also written in those record books are all the things done by Mordecai, whom the king made great. Mordecai the Jew was second in importance to King Xerxes, and he was the most important man, great and powerful among the Jews. His fellow Jews respected, admired, esteemed him very much because he worked for the good of his people and spoke up for the safety of all the Jews.” Esther 1:5-7; Esther 10:1-3.
