Hadas The Evergreen

Lessons from Esther
Esther's real name was Hadassah. Hadassah comes from the Hebrew word "Hadas" which means myrtle; a thick green bush which grows on the high places of Israel, with fragrant leaves and flowers used for perfume. No matter what the season or circumstance, it's always green. What a beautiful name for the woman we know as Esther. She also was planted on a high place - the throne of Persia. She entered the king's presence perfumed. In the end, she didn't let circumstance determine her life, but proved faithful to who she was in Israel and in God. You too are to be a myrtle in the Lord; bear sweet fragrance all the days of your life, not determined by circumstances, but by who you are in God and who He is in you. Bear God's fruits in season and out of season. Dwell in the high places of God, filled with His presence and you'll overcome the world and every problem and circumstance. Don't let a day go by without dwelling in His presence and your life will be like the myrtle and your walk evergreen.

Today's Mission
Take time today to be in His presence - be evergreen.

1 John 4:4
4 Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.
My dear children, you come from God and belong to God. You have already won a big victory over those false teachers, for the Spirit in you is far stronger than anything in the world. These people belong to the Christ-denying world. They talk the world’s language and the world eats it up. But we come from God and belong to God. Anyone who knows God understands us and listens. The person who has nothing to do with God will, of course, not listen to us. This is another test for telling the Spirit of Truth from the spirit of deception.

HAVE A BLESSED DAY AND WEEKEND!!
