Faith Fact: God knows what’s best.
Faith Verse: 2 Corinthians 5:7 “For we live by believing and not by seeing.”
Bible Story: Esther 4:10 to 5:4
We learned today that God used Esther to save his people. If Esther had not been queen, things could have gone completely different. Can you think of any other times in the Bible that God used someone to save the Jews? (God used Moses to rescue Israelites from slavery in Egypt)
Jesus died for us so that we could be forgiven for the wrong things we’ve done and have a relationship with God. Although we don’t always know what is going to happen in the future, we know that God has a plan for us. Read Esther 4:14 again. What do you think this verse means? (Esther 4:14 “For if you remain silent at this time, relief and deliverance for the Jews will arise from another place, but you and your father’s family will perish. And who knows but that you have come to your royal position for such a time as this?”)
Prayer: Dear God, thank You for having a plan for my life and always knowing what is best for me and for where I live. Thank You that Jesus has pre- pared a way for me. Amen.
