Esther 8 Explained: How Mordecai and Esther Reversed the Decree | Bible-Based Podcast

After the fall of Haman, Esther 8 shows us what restoration looks like when God moves behind the scenes. The king hands over Haman’s estate to Esther and promotes Mordecai to a position of influence. But the danger isn’t fully gone—the original edict to annihilate the Jews still stands.

In this episode of Practical Advice from the Scriptures, we explore how Esther and Mordecai step into new authority to write a counter-decree, empowering the Jewish people to defend themselves. It's a reminder that even when the damage seems done, God can work through people and systems to bring justice, protection, and unexpected joy.

This chapter offers timely lessons on the responsible use of power, courageous follow-through, and how faith-filled action can turn grief into celebration.
