Obedience to the ONLY King.

Esther 7:
9 Then Harbona, one of the king’s eunuchs, said, “Haman has set up a sharpened pole that stands seventy-five feet tall in his own courtyard. He intended to use it to impale Mordecai, the man who saved the king from assassination.”
“Then impale Haman on it!” the king ordered. 10 So they impaled Haman on the pole he had set up for Mordecai, and the king’s anger subsided.

Incredible! Here Mordecai was just serving the King, and even saved the King from an assassination by two of the King's own guardsmen and Haman hated Mordecai because he was a Jewish. But Haman's intention was to get Mordecai impaled on a 75 feet tall pole because he would not bow down to him. Haman was the 2nd in command of King Xerxes kingdom, but Haman would not bow down to him and continued to serve the real King.

Here I am, serving the King of all Kings and Lord of all Lords. There are no corrupted officals in God's kingdom and if someone says he is, but is against me then God will protect me. All I just need to do is be obedient and serve GOD.

Dear God,
Thank you for this scripture. I pray that you'll help me to be kingdom minded; serving only you. If a false sheperd comes along, I pray that you'll take care of it. Help me to learn how to tell the fake sheperds from the real sheperds. Most importantly, I pray that I'll just be obedient to you God. Your my KING, and a servant's heart is to please their KING.
In Jesus Name Amen.
