Lessons From The Book of Esther

There are several lessons we can learn from this passage in the book of Esther:

1.   We can see the foolishness of showing off. This is nothing less than sinful pride.

2.   We can see the folly of booze. It clouds the mind and closes the door of right judgment.

3.  We do not love our wife if all we want is submission.

4.   Anger makes you do things that you will later regret.

5.   God is always working behind the scenes, and you may not even be aware of it.
