God's Surprising Sovereignty
God’s surprises in your life are never random or accidental. In this message on Esther 7, Pastor Chuck Swindoll reveals how God’s timing is precise and purposeful.
We Live in Different Days
Life is complex. Our world is more complicated than it was even 20 or 30 years ago. Even though many of the values we grew up with now seem passé, the basics never change—they’re summarized in Micah 6:8, to act justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God.
Walling In or Walling Out
Just as countries build walls for protection from enemies we build walls around ourselves. Freedom is living without walls; letting go of the bitterness and anger keeping us in bondage.
What Goes Around, Comes Around
Do you feel like all is lost or that God doesn’t see your struggles? Esther 6 teaches us that God is always present, even when hope seems distant.
Retaliation
We’re all tempted to get even when we’ve been wronged; our natural reaction is to retaliate. However, a better response extends grace. It not only demonstrates self-control but it shows you don’t take your cues from how the world would respond—but rather from what God wants you to do.
Never Stop Learning
Chuck Swindoll tells us to remain students for the rest of our lives. He says to those in education, “press on; never quit. Never stop studying. Never stop reading. Never stop learning. Don’t believe it because someone says it. Find out for yourself. Never stop. Press on.” That’s good advice for all of us.
