For if you remain silent at this time, liberation and rescue will arise for the Jews from another place, and you and your father’s house will perish [since you did not help when you had the chance]. And who knows whether you have attained royalty for such a time as this [and for this very purpose]?”
Esther 4:14 AMP
Praise and glory be to God for this beautiful day and the opportunity to rejoice and be glad in it.
Today’s scripture is about Queen Esther knowing her purpose in the Kings palace at that point in time. As a slave girl who through the favour of God rise to that prestigious position, she had to step up and deliver her people.
Mordecai spoke out the truth to Esther and required of her some actions to save God’s people. The grounds had been prepared spiritually through the fasting and Prayers organised by the Jews. Esther therefore rode on the back of that and with boldness and confidence and approached the King at an inappropriate time.
Esther fulfilled her purpose at that time and deliverance came to her people. May we follow Queen Esther’s plan by laying the foundations spiritually and stepping up for fulfilment.
May the Lord help us to discover our purposes and to walk in them. May we receive grace in abundance to fulfil our God given purposes in Jesus Mighty name. Amen
