Languages Save (Esther 7-8)

After Esther revealed Haman, the king's signet ring was taken from Haman and the king gave it to Mordecai while Haman is being hanged on his own gallows. So Mordecai had to make a quick decision regarding the Jews in the name of the king and seal it with the ring without revoking what Haman had sealed. Mordecai declared through different languages saying that the king allowed the Jews from every cities to gather together to defend themselves on the 13th day of 12th month, even allowed them to destroy, kill, and even annihilate any armed force of any province that may attack them. Then this message quickly spread around 127 provinces without any delay as the couriers rode on swift horses to every provinces.

"From India to Ethiopia, 127 provinces, to each province in its own script and to each people in its own script and also to the Jews in their script and their language."

King Ahasuerus probably hired many writers and messengers. Those writers will write to each province and to each people in its own script, including Jews and their language. Then those messengers will mount on the swift horses and ride to deliver those letters. It reminds me of Zechariah 6:7, "When the strong horses came out, they were impatient to go and patrol the earth. And he said, 'Go, patrol the earth.' So they patrolled the earth." When those letters were sealed with the king's signet ring, those messengers are able to ride all around 127 provinces to deliver the message.

Like Mordecai, God also warned us about the end times through His love letter, the Bible. Today the Bible is being written in about 4000-5000 languages so far. According to Wycliffe Bible Translators there are around 2,200 more languages to have Bible printed for. May we all have the "ALL ACCESS" to the mysteries of His kingdom as we keep advancing forward when God expanded His kingdom upon the earth to create a new access to Him for us. Exciting, uh?! I say yes! We got to be able to sing our new songs in our own languages, our greatest gift to Him.

Pray: Dear Father in heaven, thank you for advancing Your messages as You used us to create those technology, so that we may have more writers and messengers to write and deliver Your message to the people out there. You carried Your messages from Moses' songs to carved stones to papyrus, leather, parchment, metal and much more before they were published into Books. Then You continued to expand Your messages into websites, DVD, CD, and even they got into our blogs and facebook! You're an awesome God. You enable us to have that deep intimacy with You 24/7 through those "All accesss" resources! In Jesus' name, we say we love you, amen.
