Isn't God wonderful!



Just think, even the most mighty king is nothing compared to God. King Nebuchadnezzar finally learned that. He finally learned that God has power over all things, and that whatever power King Nebuchadnezzar had, it wasn’t his own doing. God gave it to him.

Too bad his son didn’t learn anything from his dad.

King Nebuchadnezzar died, and his son Belshazzar became king. He thought he was pretty hot stuff. Well, he was. He had just inherited the richest, the mightiest, the most glorious kingdo...

King Ahasuerus was the king of the Persian Empire, which ruled over many lands, including the Hebrew people. 
The king was looking for a wife and he fell in love with Esther, a beautiful Hebrew girl.

But one day Haman, ...
