In the book of Esther, the unseen hand of God prepared her for God’s assignment. God used his sovereignty to reverse the events surrounding the Jewish people in Persia, and He brought forth his purpose in his appointed time. Esther did not know that He was preparing her to accomplish this divine assignment, nor could she fathom the significance she would have in the future of the Jewish nation. When you are not prepared for something in this life, God can help you rise to meet the challenge. We must accept our position of influence in order to accomplish God’s assignment.
