Join Pastor Fortunato as he unpacks verses 10-14 of Esther 6, revealing timeless truths about God's providence and the dangers of unchecked pride. This verse-by-verse Bible study explores how Haman's own words became his humiliation when King Ahasuerus commanded him to parade Mordecai through the city streets, proclaiming honor to the Jewish man he despised most.

✨ In this transformative sermon, you'll learn:

• Why disconnected leadership leads to disaster (and how to avoid it in your own life)

• The biblical principle of "whoever digs a pit shall fall into it" demonstrated in real-time
