The Unseen God Who Always Reigns, An Overview and Conclusion of Esther
Reading the Bible Daily with Dave | Dave Jenkins | Thursday, January 1, 2026
Show Summary
As we begin a new year, we conclude our study through the book of Esther, a book that never mentions the name of God, yet displays His providence on every page. From the fall of Vashti to the rise of Esther, from Haman’s pride to Mordecai’s exaltation, and from a decree of death to a decree of life, Esther reminds us that when God seems silent, He is never absent. The unseen God rules over kings and kingdoms, orchestrating all things for His glory and the good of His people.
