🌙 When God Keeps You Awake: The Divine Purpose Behind Your Sleepless Nights | Esther 6 Bible Study

🗡️ This expository sermon was delivered at Pilgrim Baptist Church in Cookeville, TN on Thursday, August 21, 2025, at 6:00 pm. 🗡️

Ever wondered why you can't sleep at 2 AM? What if those restless nights aren't just insomnia, but divine appointments with God? In this powerful sermon on Esther chapter 6, Pastor Fortunato reveals how God uses sleepless nights to accomplish His perfect will—just as He did with a Persian king 2,500 years ago.

Discover the incredible story of King Ahasuerus's sleepless night that changed history. While the king tossed and turned, God was orchestrating events to save His people. Learn how Mordecai's five-year-old act of faithfulness—saving the king from assassination—was divinely brought to light at the exact moment needed to thwart Haman's evil plot. This isn't just ancient history; it's a blueprint for understanding how God works in your life today! ✨

In this eye-opening Bible study, you'll learn:

• Why your sleepless nights might be divine insomnia rather than a medical problem

• How God's timing is never late but always strategic—like lightning that strikes exactly when needed

• The power of faithfulness without seeking recognition (and why God keeps perfect records)

• What those 2 AM wake-up calls might really mean for your prayer life

• How being a faithful "doorkeeper" in your current position matters for eternity

• The sobering truth about the Judgment Seat of Christ and eternal rewards for believers

Pastor Fortunato shares personal testimonies of how God has used sleepless nights to reveal crucial information and guide major decisions in ministry. From finding their church building to navigating difficult situations, learn how staying faithful is better than being informed, because God will reveal what you need to know exactly when you need it.

This message challenges believers to consider: What door has God positioned you to guard faithfully? Whether you're a parent protecting your home, an employee at your workplace, or serving in ministry, your faithfulness matters. Every word, every motive, and every action is being recorded for that day when we stand before Christ—not for condemnation, but for rewards.

🙏 Next time you can't sleep, before reaching for your phone or a midnight snack, remember King Ahasuerus. God might be keeping you awake to pray for someone who needs a miracle at 7 AM, to restore a broken relationship, or to reveal your next step in His plan.
