Friday Devotions - God is always working
So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.
— 1 Corinthians 10:31
In the Bible, the book of Esther (here) is well known for the phrase “For such as time as this” as it relates to how Queen Esther needed to stand up for the Jewish people in order to save them from being wiped out. The book is also known for being one of only two books in the Bible that don’t mention the name of God or a direct reference to Him. However, the theme of the book is that God is always active, He is always moving, and His plans will happen as He sees fit.
Today we looked at an overview of the book of Esther to see all those seemingly random events and how it was truly God moving in all of them, and then discussed the many different ways that we can trust God in all our current day circumstances.
Have you been going through really amazing things in life that make you happy and rejoice? God is IN those things.
Have you had hard times, sad times, or even painful times? God is IN those things too.
Do you have wishes and desires for the future? God is IN your future.
In all these things, be sure to praise God, pray to God, and lean on Him to help guide your steps.
