At the Right Moment, Day 4

Right place, right time. Read Esther chapter 4.

The trap has been laid and the people are left wondering what is happening. The Jews are in mourning. Mordecai’s grief captures the attention of Esther and he tells her the whole tale. He ends with the reminder that she is a Jew and that she will be subject to death as well. Mordecai sees that this may be exactly why God has allowed all these things to come about up to this point. This may be why Esther was ripped from her family and put into the position of Queen.

God brings about the right people in the right places at the right time, but then they need to be obedient. Are we ready to be obedient to all that God is doing in our lives? He has us uniquely placed to fulfill his will. We just need to take the action he has placed before us.
