In the book of Esther, we see God raising up a woman by the name of Esther to be queen. At this time, one of the King’s officials, Haman, was planning to bring a genocide to the Jewish people, unknowingly to the King. Esther’s Jewish uncle, Mordecai, pleaded for her to do something about the destruction that was going to take place. In fact, he reminded her of something profound in Esther 4:13-14,
Do not think to yourself that in the king’s palace you will escape any more than all the other Jews. For if you keep silent at this time, relief and deliverance will rise for the Jews from another place, but you and your father’s house will perish. And who knows whether you have not come to the kingdom for such a time as this?
If Esther chose to remain silent, her people would perish. However, if she acted, she could save a nation.
Friend, this is the most important election of our lifetime. The Haman’s have come out in full force and are more than ready to destroy our morals, freedoms and nation. We cannot remain silent or stay home.
Thank you Maudeen, very relevant scripture for our time now. Lots of people are feeling something never felt before - revolution.
Maudeen, that was inspiring. Thank you and this is indeed a battle of good and evil right before our eyes.......
