“For Such a Time as This.”
The Book of Esther is a book about the “timing of the Lord!” Esther was raised by her uncle, Mordecai… they were Jewish. At that time, King Ahasuerus ruled the province from India to Ethiopia! But the queen of Ahasuerus had disobeyed her husband, the king, so he banished her and found another bride, the beautiful Jewish girl, Esther. What a story!
However, her uncle Mordecai had a great enemy, Haman. He was jealous of Mordecai so he set a trap to kill him and “all the Jews!” Just before “Esther, Mordecai, and all the Jews were to be killed, her uncle told her, “Who knoweth whether thou art come to the kingdom for such a time as this?” God used Esther to “find favor” in the eyes of her husband, the king!
Every plan of God has “perfect timing!” It may not be “our time,” but when He says, “it’s time,” miracles happen! Have a blessed day!
