The story of Esther is a classic tale of good versus evil. Purim is a Jewish feast celebrating this riveting tale. Believers cannot deny that a party celebrating biblical heroes is beneficial. However, many Believers struggle to understand the depths of the significance of Purim.
In the book of Esther, the villain was Haman. He sought to wipe out the Jewish people living within the Persian Empire during King Ahasuerus’s reign. Through a miraculous act of God, a Jewish orphan named Esther saved the entire nation.
Within the story, you read how Haman plotted to kill, steal, and destroy, just like the enemy of our souls. He twisted the truth and uttered lies.
However, the hero of the story, Esther, trusted her guide, Mordecai. She stepped out in faith. She understood that if she did not act, there was much at stake.
She bravely approached the king, overcoming her doubt and stepping into her purpose. She saved her people!
