We have one more study left and our theme that we’ve had on old truths for a new world. And I think tonight, this might be the most applicable of all the lessons that we’ve had so far. Why isn’t God changing my situation? I hope I don’t excite you too much in some of the guys that isn’t in saying, I have a Whopper of a fish tale to tell you. And I actually, I may end up being a mammal tail by the time it’s all said and done, but I have a big fish story to tell you and trying to answer this question biblically, why isn’t God changing my situation? It really bothers us. Doesn’t it to get stuck in a circumstance where in frankly, we’d rather not be, we pray and we pray about it, but there we still remain right square in the middle of life’s muck. Why doesn’t God change our situations faster and more permanently than he often does? Why is it challenging circumstance after challenging circumstance that I find in my life? Why doesn’t God take the problems away that I find in my life? What was we open up the book of Jonah?

And if you were here in our class, you know that, but for those who weren’t here, I just want to make sure that we’re all on the same page with just heavily cliff noted version of what it was that we discussed. We’re looking at Esther from the standpoint of a jigsaw puzzle and not just any jigsaw puzzle, but the most complex jigsaw puzzle that has ever been cut and then piece back together. And that is the beautiful, amazing Providence of God is to me, insane that anyone could take all of these people’s freewill and coordinate them in such a way so that he always produces the same thing, the deliverance of his people. And here’s what we found so far. And looking at our study, we propped up the bottom of the box and the top of it. So we can see the finished product. Esther chapter eight, verse 16. This is the puzzle. When it’s all put together, the Jews had light and gladness, joy, and honor, the Jews are God’s …
