Receive the Royal Crown

“Now when the turn of Esther, the daughter of Abihail the uncle of Mordecai, who had taken her for his daughter, came to go in to the king, she required nothing but what Hegai the king’s eunuch, the keeper of the women, advised. Esther obtained favor in the sight of all those who looked at her. So Esther was taken to King Ahasuerus into his royal house in the tenth month, which is the month Tebeth, in the seventh year of his reign. The king loved Esther more than all the women, and she obtained favor and kindness in his sight more than all the virgins; so that he set the royal crown on her head, and made her queen instead of Vashti.” (Esther‬ ‭2:15-17‬ ‭WEB‬)

There was a huge beauty pageant being held to choose a new queen.

Each contestant could choose an item to bring with her into the king’s presence.

All the young women brought what they thought would please the king, based on their own assumptions and understanding.

However, Esther was uncommon. She trusted the king’s eunuch and brought what he recommended, into the king’s presence.

In this story, Esther is a picture of a believer, the eunuch represents the Holy Spirit, and the king represents God the Father.

Do you lean on your own understanding or do you trust the leading of the Holy Spirit?

How do you obtain great favor from God? It is by humbly relying on the Holy Spirit and not by trusting in your self-efforts, intelligence, beauty, skills, or strength.

When you lean on Him, you receive the power of God into your circumstances.

The one who relies completely on the Holy Spirit receives the royal crown on the head.

“Wisdom is supreme. Get wisdom. Yes, though it costs all your possessions, get understanding. Esteem her, and she will exalt you. She will bring you to honor, when you embrace her. She will give to your head a garland of grace. She will deliver a crown of splendor to you.”” (Proverbs‬ ‭4:7-9‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

The Holy Spirit gives you godly wisdom whereas the world’s wisdom is earthly, sensual, and even demonic. God’s crowns you with grace and splendor (every good thing). This is how you reign in life!

“Honest balances and scales are Yahweh’s; all the weights in the bag are his work. It is an abomination for kings to do wrong, for the throne is established by righteousness.” (PROVERBS 16:11-12 WEB)

God rewards a person to right an imbalance in the world. Imagine a set of balance and scales. On one side is a person’s good works which carry weight. The more good works a person does, the heavier that side becomes. As a Righteous Judge, God cannot allow unrighteousness to exist in the world without dealing with it. Therefore, He has to balance out the other end of the scale by adding His wages (eternal rewards and earthly blessings) on it.

This is why it’s so powerful when you do good works without expecting anything in return from man. Doing so causes an imbalance in the world which God has to fix. If you’ve not been rewarded by man, then you have to be rewarded by God. If you do good works with the ulterior motive of receiving praises from men, then you’ll have no reward from God because the imbalance will already be made right by the praises that you receive. That’s why Jesus taught in Matthew 6 to do all your good works in secret! Remember, if there’s an imbalance, God has to complete and make it right.

“On that night, the king couldn’t sleep. He commanded the book of records of the chronicles to be brought, and they were read to the king. It was found written that Mordecai had told of Bigthana and Teresh, two of the king’s eunuchs, who were doorkeepers, who had tried to lay hands on the King Ahasuerus. The king said, “What honor and dignity has been given to Mordecai for this?” Then the king’s servants who attended him said, “Nothing has been done for him.” The king said, “Who is in the court?” Now Haman had come into the outer court of the king’s house, to speak to the king about hanging Mordecai on the gallows that he had prepared for him. The king’s servants said to him, “Behold, Haman stands in the court.” The king said, “Let him come in.” So Haman came in. The king said to him, “What shall be done to the man whom the king delights to honor?” Now Haman said in his heart, “Who would the king
delight to honor more than myself?”” (ESTHER 6:1-6 WEB)

Like King Ahasuerus, God also has a type book of records in heaven called a “Book of Memory” (Malachi 3:16-18). Those books contain all the deeds that every human has done throughout history, whether good or bad. If King Ahasuerus, a pagan king, was righteous enough to delight in repaying Mordecai for his good deed, won’t God the “King of Kings” be even happier to reward you for all your good works?

“Also to you, Lord, belongs loving kindness, for you reward every man according to his work.” (PSALMS 62:12 WEB)
