Esther 7:3-4 (NKJV) 3 Then Queen Esther answered and said, \u201cIf I have found favor in your sight, O king, and if it pleases the king, let my life be given me at my petition, and my people at my request. 4 For we have been sold, my people and I, to be destroyed, to be killed, and to be annihilated. Had we been sold as male and female slaves, I would have held my tongue, although the enemy could never compensate for the king\u2019s loss.\u201d<\/p>\n

Up until the point in the verses above, despite being the queen, the wife of the King, Esther had not revealed her people or her family to the King. Out of obedience to Mordecai, the man who had raised her, she was not to say anything.<\/p>\n

Esther 2:10 (NKJV) 10 Esther had not revealed her people or family, for Mordecai had charged her not to reveal it.<\/p>\n

She would never have told the King if it wasn’t for the plot that came against Mordecai and all the Jews.<\/p>\n

This plot was being carried out by a man named Haman. Haman wanted to destroy all Jews throughout the kingdom of King Ahaseurus.<\/p>\n

Word of this plot got to Queen Esther. And at this point in time, she needed to let the King know who she really was and what was being planned in order to destroy her people.<\/p>\n

For the longest time, she had to keep it silent. But now, at this moment, she needed to speak it.<\/p>\n

By revealing that she was a Jew, everything was turned around. The evil that was being perpetrated against the Jewish people through Haman was immediately null and void!<\/p>\n

As she obeyed and waited for the perfect timing to reveal her identity, God\u2019s people were preserved, and rescued from ruin.<\/p>\n

Esther, the beautiful, orphaned Jewess, was brought in at this specific time to save her people!<\/p>\n

You just never know how important our obedience to God is at times. The effect it may have on many others.<\/p>\n

What is God asking of us today? Do we need to be silent, or do we need to speak up?<\/p>\n

Are we going to be like Esther? Can He use us for such a time as this?<\/p>\n

Obedience is the key for God to be able to use us at any given time.<\/p>\n

Doing it His way is everything we need if we are to be victorious in what He asks us to do!<\/p>\n

Psalm 18:30 (NKJV) 30 As for God, His way is perfect; The word of the Lord is proven; He is a shield to all who trust in Him.<\/p>\n

Amen.<\/p>\n
