What happens when pride takes over? Watch a powerful biblical account unfold as Haman walks straight into his own trap in this verse-by-verse exposition of Esther chapter 6.

🗡️ This expository sermon was delivered at Pilgrim Baptist Church in Cookeville, TN on Thursday, August 28, 2025, at 6:00 pm. 🗡️

In this eye-opening Bible study, we dive deep into one of Scripture's most dramatic reversals, where a man's pride becomes the architect of his own downfall. Through careful expository preaching, we uncover how Haman's midnight plotting against Mordecai turns into his greatest humiliation, teaching us profound lessons about pride, humility, and God's perfect providence.

🔥 In This Powerful Message You'll Discover:

• Why evil never sleeps and how God's providence works even in the darkest hours

• The seven words from King Ahasuerus that changed everything

• How pride deceives us just like it deceived the Edomites in Obadiah

• Why Haman wanted the king's crown, clothes, and horse (and why they'd never fit)

• The five biblical crowns YOU can earn as a believer versus worldly crowns that will never satisfy

• Practical wisdom for protecting your heart from pride in daily Christian living

• The dangerous "streets" pride leads us down: Superiority, Success, Significance, and Supremacy

• How to "pass the praise" and guard your heart against arrogance

This sermon offers practical biblical teaching that applies directly to modern Christian life. Whether you're struggling with pride, seeking biblical wisdom for daily decisions, or simply want to understand God's Word better, this verse-by-verse Bible teaching will challenge and encourage your faith journey.

⏰ Key Moments:

We explore how preparing our hearts matters more than preparing our appearance, why your home should be a haven from pride, and the simple yet powerful solution found in Proverbs: sometimes we just need to be quiet. Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and Haman's story proves it.

✨ This expository sermon reminds us that while pride plots in the midnight hours, God's providence never sleeps. Learn how to recognize pride's deception before you walk into your own trap.
