“Providential Deliverance” |
God providentially Esther and Mordecai to bring Israel deliverance from her enemies. |

Hooks from Esther |
|
The Father provides Christ to deliver His people “when the set time had fully come.” “But when the fullness of time had come, God sent forth his Son, born of woman, born under the law, to redeem those who were under the law, so that we might receive adoption as sons.” – Galatians 4:4-5
|
As Christ’s ambassadors, we have been providentially provided to proclaim deliverance through him to those who are perishing. “Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, God making his appeal through us. We implore you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the unrighteousness of God.” – 2 Corinthians 5:20-21 |
What does it mean to be Christ’s ambassador? What does an ambassador do? Do you speak to others in the King’s name and authority or in your own? How does your worshiping community work together to make the good news known? How could you be an agent of God’s deliverance in the place where he has put you? What are the ways you could make the good news known to those who are perishing? How far are you willing to go to be used by God to bring about the deliverance of his people?
