"Go and do it,” the king said to Haman. “don’t waste another minute. take the robe and horse and do what you have proposed to mordecai the jew who sits at the king’s gate. don’t leave out a single detail of your plan.”
So haman took therobe and horse; he robed Mordecai and led him through the city square, proclaiming before him, “This is what is done for the man whom the king especially wants to honor!”

Angela at Love God Greatly says: "In Romans 12:3 we are urged not to think of ourselves more highly than we ought, but rather think of ourselves with sober judgment, in accordance with the measure of faith God has given us. In other words, don’t be prideful.

“Pride is a state of the heart that, sooner or later, is betrayed by the mouth.”- Beth Moore

Isn’t that true in Haman’s case today! The pride that has been bubbling up in his heart finally spills out...

Pride flows from Haman’s heart through his mouth and he’s about to have a royal mess to clean up.

You see, sweet friend, it’s not that Haman thought well of himself – it’s that he thought a little too well of himself. His identity wasn’t grounded in Christ, but rather in who he (Haman) was and what he did. His identity was grounded in what the world valued rather than what God valued. He preferred to be honored in front of men, not in the eyes of God...

For today, realize this truth. God doesn’t call us to poor self-esteem. Rather, He wants us to find our self worth not in what we do but rather in whose we are. Our self worth is found in our identity in Christ, and in Him alone.

Let’s stop living for the applause of many and instead live for the applause of the only one who truly matters anyway. May our dreams be different from those of the Haman’s of this world. May our lives not be about “us,” “me,” or “I,” but only about Him… Not for our honor, but for His."
