Faith Cannot Fail

With such a brave declaration from the young Esther and the very real possibility of dire consequences, she may have preferred for Mordecai to at least hesitate in enacting the plan. It is easy to read this part of her story and gloss over it, but let's take a moment to recognise what she just said. She was ‘all in’ regardless of the outcome. When she accepted her mandate, she did it unconditionally, wow!

Faith cannot fail. Jesus said to the disciples. Jesus told them, “This is the only work God wants from you: Believe in the one he has sent.” Esther’s faith here is remarkable in the way that she demonstrates total trust in God. She realises somehow that her life belongs to God, and no earthly King or temporary circumstance can change that. Not many of us are in a position where our very lives are at stake, but even if we are, be confident of this, you belong to Him, and He will never fail.

As you stand in faith for your miracle, throw your hat over the wall and believe with all your heart. This is the kind of Faith that moves mountains and conquers kings!

Pray: Father I trust in You. Thank You for courage in my spirit to believe …
