Esther 4:14c

¹⁴ 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?”

And who knows whether you have not come to the kingdom for such a time as this?”

A fit statement for all believers to remember.  This is our time.  In the Providence of God, and for whatever it is worth, there is no one else but us to do with our day what needs to be done. We cannot wish this day and the problems of it away. We cannot wish for someone else to solve them.  This is our day with its trials and victories.

This we know.  Christ has been raised and exalted to the position of all power in heaven and in the earth.  And on His behalf we must protect the poor, defend the weak, save the lost, and profess the name of Christ no matter the price.

In this day, 2019, there are two great wonders.  One is the blindness of mankind in its wickedness.  Witness the willingness to practice infanticide.  Secondly is the foolishness of going back 20, 30, 40, or even 50 years to find some fault in someone’s behavior.  Let’s apply Romans 3:23.  for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.
