Mordecai, Haman, Esther - Victory for the Jews

This was a very crucial time for the Jews. With Haman and his family clearly against the Jews set on killing them all and eliciting the King to give them power to do it. Mordecai wasn't honoring the leadership of Haman to bow before him as ordered by the King. I don't think it was in defiance of the King but in honor to God. This shows the power of the Lord's ability to use everyone or anyone. With Mordecai and those close to him and Esther and those close to her all submitting to God through fasting and prayer to God for protection from the Kings wraith for breaking his rules. All was well and blessed as Esther approached the King and his love for her set above all else that mattered. He gave her all he had and anything she wanted. She showed him honor even in the mist of asking for him to defy his own decree. He told her it couldn't be rescinded but she could do whatever necessary to protect her people from it. So through the honoring of Mordecai from the King and the love of Esther all power to protect themselves was given to the Jews. I'm not so sure I like the fact that the day of Purim is OK though. Purim meaning casting lots isn't cool to my thinking cause its of evil (Witchcraft). I read no where does this say its of the Lord, so it's just not setting right with me at this time. 

Lord help us all to live in the faith and knowledge of knowing you always have a plan for us. In the precious holy name above all names, Christ Jesus, Amen!
