Oh she was the Queen of all Queens
a position that was not of her choosing,
yet was chosen for her.
Snatched from her ordinary life
and forced into a year long process
of getting her ready to go before the
King
to either get a nay of rejection
or a yeah
if she as acceptable enough to be chosen
to be the next Queen.
And little ordinary ESTHER
won the beauty pageant.
The crazy thing was that she was Jewish
and if the King found out
it wouldn't be good.
BUT GOD had a master plan,
just like HE always does
in just a way that will bring all the glory to HIM
no matter how bizarre the plan it.
HIS PLAN for you is always HIS WILL~
for "such a time like this".
Oh ESTHER was created
to do the unthinkable,
and did it
because
she chose FAITH
despite the wackiness of the plan
"FOR SUCH A TIME AS THIS".
ESTHER released herself into the hands of GOD
and took the BOLD STEP~
"For if you remain silent at this time, relief and deliverance for the Jews will arise from another place, but you and your father’s family will perish. And who knows but that you have come to your royal position FOR SUCH A TIME AS THIS?” (Esther 4:14)
HIS PLAN HIS WILL!
Oh the BOLDNESS of COURAGE~
"If I perish I perish".
enabled her to do this.
Did she perish?
Oh no!
Instead, because of her BOLD STEP
the Jewish people were delivered from a scheme to destroy them all
by one oh guilty one
who did perish
"FOR SUCH A TIME AS THIS".
Because of ESTHER'S BOLD FAITH
the celebration of
PURIM
exists
to this day
for two days
ending tonight.
But what if ESTHER
didn't pray about what to do
and didn't fast
and didn't ask others to fast & pray~
“Go, gather together all the Jews who are in Susa, and fast for me.
Do not eat or drink for three days, night or day.
I and my attendants will fast as you do.
When this is done, I will go to the king, even though it is against the law.
And if I perish, I perish” (Esther 4:16)
Would she have & Could she have
been so BOLD
to take the risk to do the impossible?
Oh I think not.
To be so yoked to
GOD
you can
&
I can
do the impossible
"FOR SUCH A TIME AS THIS"
because
"If I perish, I perish",
just like the words of Paul that made him
BOLD~
"For to me, to live is CHRIST and to die is gain" (Philippians 1:21)
Oh to take that impossible step into the impossible
just because
GOD is asking~
"Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your GOD will be with you wherever you go" (Joshua 1:9).
Oh my friends
Do you see impossible? What is your
"FOR SUCH A TIME AS THIS"?
Will you take
THE RISK
of
THE STEP BOLDNESS
with
GOD
instead of
WAITING in FEAR?
Oh
BE WAITLESS
and
MOVE FORWARD
"FOR SUCH A TIME AS THIS"
because you were made for so much more
because you were
"BORN FOR THIS" (listen to the song below)
