‘Pray For The Nations.’
Isaiah 52:5.
a) The Lord sees.
b) His People are taken away without a cause.
c) They are taken captive and made waste.
d) They cry out for sorrow.
e) All day long the Nations put shame on the Lord’s Name.
(Through this QT I am stimulated to Pray For The Nations)

‘Ricochet Effect Of Sin.’
a) Esther 3:1; 1 Samuel 15:2-11. Haman should never have existed if King Saul had obeyed God there would have been no Haman.
b) Esther 3:2. Mordecai refused to honour this man Haman.
c) Esther 3:3-4. Mordecai was not ashamed of being a Jew and he revealed the fact.
d) Deuteronomy 6:4. As a Jew he proclaimed God.
e) Esther 3:5. Haman was filled with rage and decided to wipe out the Jews.
f) Ephesians 5:11-13. The Light of God in Mordecai revealed Haman’s darkness.
g) Esther 3:7. Haman was desperately trying to find the right time to destroy the Jews, even through occult means.
h) Proverbs 16:33. Even though Haman does this the Lord will make the final decision. (We can trust the Lord)
i) Esther 3:8-15. The evil desire became a legalised plan.
(Through this Second one I see how important it is not to neglect or to try to hide sin, there is a Ricochet Effect Of Sin)

Chris.
The Nations in many parts of the World are putting shame on the Lord’s Name. This is why as True Believers we need to be living in the Light and also praying for the Nations. The Church has become weak in so many cases because of division and compromise.
