Esther 8:1-8
That same day King Xerxes gave Queen Esther the estate of Haman. And Mordecai came intothe presence of the king, the king took off his signet ring, which he had reclaimed from Haman, and presented it to Mordecai.
Esther again pleaded with the king, she begged him to put an end to the evil plan of Haman the Agagite, which he had devised against the Jews.
King Xerxes replied to Queen Esther and to Mordecai the Jew, write another decree in the king's name in behalf of the Jews as seems best to you, and seal it with the king's signet ring.
There still remains the problem of Haman's edict. Since it was issued in the king's name and under his seal it cannot be revoked. But in answer to Esther's further plea the king authorizes a second decree permitting the Jews to fight back.
Once the king had given his ring to Haman. Now he gives it to Mordecai, making him the second most powerful man in the land.
Why?
God allowed the evil decree be issued now then be updated by new decree. God gives us the testimony and trial to let us has better faith and strength.
All the frustration and tear were erased and became joy. This is the just of God be done and God saved his people in new way. Unbelievable thing comes true, it is the hand of Mighty God did.
How?
Praise to the Lord and give honor to our mighty God.
