For Such A Time As This

I just finished reading the Old Testament book of Esther this morning. It is a great history lesson on the importance of faith and courage in challenging times.

Mordecai’s words in persuading Esther to boldly stand are classic: “…who knows but that you have come to royal position for such a time as this?” (Esther 4:14) Esther then takes a bold stand and God uses her courageous act to dramatically save her people.

Seems to me we need those who will take a bold stand for the Lord and his cause today. Why not ask the Lord to live big in you today!

David,
This orgamiization was founded by a Jewish Christian who is starting a national outreach to share the Gospel to Muslims in America. Already hundreds have been saved. That is taking a bold stand!!

I ask for your prayers to support this mission
