About this listen

 In Esther 5, courageous faith moves from conviction to action. After prayer and fasting, Queen Esther risks her life by entering the king's presence to intercede for her people. Though God's name is never mentioned in the book of Esther, His sovereign providence is clearly at work—granting favor, restraining evil, and preparing deliverance. This episode of Reading the Bible Daily with Dave explores Esther's courage, wisdom, and humility, contrasts it with Haman's destructive pride, and points us to Christ, our greater Mediator. Esther approached an earthly throne at great risk; Christ approached the cross to secure our salvation, granting us confident access to the throne of grace. Listeners are encouraged to see that biblical faith is not passive. True faith steps forward in obedience, trusting God's timing, wisdom, and sovereign control over every circumstance. Scripture: Esther 5 (ESV) Key Themes: God's providence, courageous faith, humility versus pride, Christ-centered intercession For more from Reading the Bible Daily with Dave please visit our page here at Servants of Grace: https://servantsofgrace.org/reading-the-bible-daily-with-dave/
