“If you keep quiet at a time like this, deliverance and relief for the Jews will arise from some other place, but you and your relatives will die. Who knows if perhaps you were made queen for just such a time as this?” – Esther 4: 14

When Queen Esther was selected from the haram to be King Xerxes’ wife, she had no idea what task lay ahead of her.

When Haman, one of the King’s high officials set out to destroy the Jews, Esther’s uncle (Mordecai) pleaded with her to step in and take action.

And even though Esther knew she could’ve been killed for approaching the King without an invitation, she trusted God to help her deliver her people.

Because it was God who placed her in the right place at the right time to be able to save lives.

Isn’t divine orchestration a beautiful thing?

Well, what’s even more wonderful is that we’re all a part of God’s divine plan. Our lives were created with intention and purpose.

So we can breathe easy knowing that exactly where we are in life is exactly where we should be.

God is constantly preparing us, developing us, shifting us, positioning us, and re-arranging our lives in order to fulfill His purpose.

There’s a calling placed on each of us, and we have to stay focused on Him so that when our season of purpose arrives, we will be courageous to carry out God’s plan like Queen Esther was!

Be blessed,

Alexia

Prayer: God, help me to look to you every day for guidance and direction so that I will not miss any opportunity to do your will as you would have me do. Help me to be at peace with how my life is unfolding so I can show up mighty and strong when it’s my time to be courageous and faithful in your name. In Jesus’ Name, I pray, Amen.
