"Seeking the wealth of his people"(Esther 10:3).
Mordecai was a true patriot. Since he was exalted to the highest position under King Ahasuerus, he used his influence to promote the prosperity of Israel. He was a type of Jesus, who, upon His throne of glory, seeks not His own, but uses His power for His people. Every Christian should be a Mordecai to the Church, striving according to his ability for its prosperity. Some are placed in positions of affluence and influence. Let them honor their Lord in the high places of the earth and testify for Jesus before great men. Others have something far better - close fellowship with the King of kings. Let them be sure to plead daily for the weak, the doubting, the tempted, and the comfortless. Believers may serve their Master greatly if they offer their talents for the general good and impart their wealth of heavenly learning to others by teaching them the things of God. The very least in the Body of Christ may at least seek the welfare of the people of God. His desire, if he can give no more, will be enough. It is both the most Christlike and the most happy life for a believer to cease living for himself. He who blesses others cannot fail to be blessed himself. On the other hand, to seek our own personal greatness is a wicked and unhappy way of life. Are you, to the best of your ability, seeking the wealth of the Church in your neighborhood? I trust that you are not hindering it by bitterness and scandal or weakening it by neglect. Friend, unite with the Lord's poor, bear their cross, and do all the good you can for them. You will not lose your reward.
