Esther 8:17 and many of the people of the land became Jews.
If the people of the land "became Jews" it wasn't by blood, so it must have been ceremonial and believing in the true God. Were they then part of the nation of Isreal that can claim promises from God?
Mishael on Ephesians 613 and Matthew 5 - In Reply on Amos 6 - 3 years ago
Ephesians 6:13 and Matthew 5
Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth
But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.
And if any man will sue thee at the law, and take away thy coat, let him have thy cloke also.
And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him two
Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee turn not thou away.
Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy.
But I say unto you, LOVE your enemies, BLESS them that curse you, DO GOOD to them that hate you, and PRAY for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you
That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sends the rain on the just and on the unjust.
For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans do the same?
And if ye salute your friends only, what do ye more than others? do not even the mean people so?
Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.
I know you've read this part. It's very hard to pray for them. You have to stand fast and do excellent work, AS UNTO JESUS! Make HIM proud.
I had the same problem with the bosses and unholy coworkers. If you are working as if Jesus is your Boss; this will be easy.
Pray every day for them all to be promoted.
No sour looks. Be helpful but don't get drawn into office GOSSIP. Having done all, TO STAND. If you will do this as to Jesus your Big Boss: He's gonna take care of you. Stand solid in faith!
It works! I saw a lot of mean people get promoted out...and I had 'peace in the valley'.
