The Start of the Past 30 Years - Esther

Esther 4:16 │ “Go, gather all the Jews to be found in Susa, and hold a fast on my behalf, and do not eat or drink for three days, night or day. I and my young women will also fast as you do. Then I will go to the king, though it is against the law, and if I perish, I perish.”

There is a constant stream in the Gospel movement. When 99.9 percent of the Israelites lost hold of the Gospel; fell into idol worship; and were seized by the customs of the world, they were invaded by surrounding powerful nations. At that time, God made the Israelites captives for the purpose of world evangelization and left behind 0.1 percent of Remnants who possessed the Gospel. For you who have been called as a Remnant, there is something you must remember.

1. Other Factors That God Has Prepared for Remnants
God sent Esther in front of King Ahasuerus, who ruled the Persian Empire and moved the world. Because Remnants are the 0.1 percent who will be used in the time schedule prepared by God, they must constantly prepare in prayer. Whereas, Queen Vashti who indulged in daily feasts, drinking, singing, and dancing was eventually dethroned. Through that event, Remnants must realize to enjoy, and not indulge, in the matters of the world.

2. Remnants Are “Those Who Remained,” “Those Who Remain,” “Those Who Will Remain,” and “Those Who Will Leave Behind”
After Queen Vashti was dethroned, God raised Esther(the one who remained) as the queen. Through Esther, God restored Israel who had lost hold of world evangelization. Furthermore, unlike Haman, Esther had the power not to be deceived by the world (the one who remains) and even in the midst when the people of the covenant were about to be exterminated, she experienced the blessing of Purim(the one who will remain). God’s time schedule will surely come. That’s why Remnants must wait and challenge for the restoration of the coming generations(those who will leave behind).

Remnants will create a system to save the age and raise the RUTC and RU. All Remnants have to do is hold onto God’s covenant and prepare to change the absolutely impossible field of “Nobody” into the absolutely possible field of “Everybody.”

[Covenantal Prayer] Dear God, may the grace of Jesus Christ and the works of the Holy Spirit come upon the 0.1 percent of Remnants who possess the Gospel. I pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

[Deep Questions]
Q. What Is the Feast of Purim?

The feast of Purim commemorates the salvation of the Jewish people in ancient Persia from the evil Haman, a descendent of Agag, who tried to massacre all the Jewish people.

According to Esther 3:7, lots were cast and the twelfth month of Adar was chosen. In one day, on the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, Haman plotted to annihilate all Jewish people in Persia and plunder their goods.

However, through a dramatic reversal, Haman was hanged and the Jewish people who were about to be slaughtered received salvation.

The feast of Purim is the day that commemorates that dramatic event.
