Esther, a young Jewish girl who was made queen of Persia, faced a crucial choice. Would she fulfill the role God had for her, risking her life to save her people, or take the safer path of least resistance? We face the same choices in life. Are we willing to take risks to be a part of God’s great adventure?

38:34 – (ESV) Esther 4;12-16 Then Mordecai told them to reply to Esther, “Do not think to yourself that in the king’s palace you will escape any more than all the other Jews. 14 For if you keep silent at this time, relief and deliverance will rise for the Jews from another place, but you and your father’s house will perish. And who knows whether you have not come to the kingdom for such a time as this?” 15 Then Esther told them to reply to Mordecai, 16 “Go, gather all the Jews to be found in Susa, and hold a fast on my behalf, and do not eat or drink for three days, night or day. I and my young women will also fast as you do. Then I will go to the king, though it is against the law, and if I perish, I perish.”
47:08 – (ESV) Esther 5;9 And Haman went out that day joyful and glad of heart. But when Haman saw Mordecai in the king’s gate, that he neither rose nor trembled before him, he was filled with wrath against Mordecai.
48:35 – (ESV) Esther 5;13 “Yet all this is worth nothing to me, so long as I see Mordecai the Jew sitting at the king’s gate.”
53:12 – (ESV) Esther 7;3-4 Then Queen Esther answered, “If I have found favor in your sight, O king, and if it please the king, let my life be granted me for my wish, and my people for my request. 4 For we have been sold, I and my people, to be destroyed, to be killed, and to be annihilated. If we had been sold merely as slaves, men and women, I would have been silent, for our affliction is not to be compared with the loss to the king.”
55:10 – (ESV) Esther 7;9 Then Harbona, one of the eunuchs in attendance on the king, said, “Moreover, the gallows that Haman has prepared for Mordecai, whose word saved the king, is standing at Haman’s house, fifty cubits high.”

Have you ever wondered what God is up to in your life, especially during challenging times? How might He be using unexpected circumstances to shape and restore you? Join us as we delve into the book of Esther, exploring how God’s hidden hand works in mysterious ways to refine us. Through Esther’s story, we learn valuable lessons about God’s justice and our place in His divine plan. We will reflect on how God uses trials and losses to strip away our pride and self-centeredness and why it is sometimes necessary for us to experience discomfort and the destruction of our own ambitions to grow closer to Him. This sermon invites you to ponder these questions and discover how trusting in God’s providence can transform your life. Don’t miss this opportunity to gain a fresh perspective on your faith journey.
