HERO - "ESTHER"

God gave us His Son to reconcile man back to Himself, but without us taking the messsage to the street and the king court yards sometimes risking all. We would loose sight of God's Grace and power to save and deliver.

A Hero is someone of distinguished courage and ability, admired for their brave deeds and noble qualities. Esther proved she is one by the things she did.

We all have what it takes to make an eternal diffrence is someone's life.

Check this out

Esther 4:7 -15 (NKJV)

SOME OF THE KEY QUALITIES ESTHER EXPRESSED

1. Skill– In Chapter 2:8-14 she had 12 months training in royal etiquette.

2. Faith – Relied on God to overcome adversity, not her skill or position as a new queen.

3. Courage – She mastered her fear. Mark Twan said “courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear not absence of fear”

4. Spiritual cover – She asked to be prayed for

5. Teach ability – A mark of discipleship – She remained accountable to her uncle even as a newly crowned queen, her position didn’t make her forget where she was coming from. Did not reveal her nationality until told to do so

6. Wisdom – she did not break the law but positioned herself to be invited in. When the king SAW her she was granted favour and was invited in.

7. She made herself available to be used, Chap 5:1-3 by risking the loss of her comfort, pleasure and the prestige of been a queen, because she had to reveal her identity as a Jew.
Gal 3:22 …… the Scriptures declare that we are all prisoners of sin, so we receive God’s promise of freedom only by believing in Jesus Christ.

They can’t believe expect they hear, Friends our existence is not by accident or chance, you are here for such a time as this, to bring light and salvation to a nation sentenced to death.
The call is now, and it is urgent!

Will you Go?
