That night Mordecai must have gone to sleep with a burdened heart,I amgine he would have sung with David" I will both lie down in peace and sleep;for you alone,O Lord make me dwell in safety".The thoughts of His people and Him being killed by the enemy must have put him in lot of pain.Next morning,something unusual happened,Haman was knocking his doors,he must havepinched himself ot see whether he was dreaming or not.At the entrace stood the Royal Horse on which the emperor rode,he was asked by haman to put the ROYAL GARMENTS and also the Royal crown.He could not believe what was happening.He was escorted through the streets by Haman tellng"This would be done to the man whom the Kings wishes to honor".The reason was when Mordecai was resting at night,his keeper was not sleeping!!
The Israelites were in anguish,they murmured to Moses asking him why he brought them from Egypt while they were near the bowls of meat and had so much to feast on.They were perplexed by the sight of Pharoah and his army chasing them and the red sea was roaring in front of them.They could not do much during the night,but their keeper could.He drove an east wind over the red sea all through the night.At the morning watch,they could see a new way paved for them.
King Hezekiah also will not forget to narrate His experience.He faced a strong enemy who threatened him for days.The enmy breathed out heaps of insults and demoralized the people of God.They were silent because that was the order from hezekiah.The king rent His garments and went to the presence of God with the cruel inhumane threatenings from the enemy.With a heavy heart they went to rest at night.Morning they saw 1,85,000 dead bodies lying around them.One angel of God went through the enemy's camp.
CHild of God,are you facing a difficult situation in your life,be careful not to sin against God by your words.Allow Him to work.Though the weeping may last for a night JOY comes in the morning.Your morning is coming!!Hold on!!
