Selected For Significance | July 9, 2023

Have you ever been selected for a job, task, or assignment that you didn’t want to do? Probably we all have. However, none of us have experienced what Mordecai did when he was captured, taken to Babylon, lost his uncle, and then had to take care of his cousin in a hostile environment. Also, none of us have experienced the assignment of being forced to marry an evil king and become part of his harem. That is what Mordecai’s cousin Esther had to do after the former queen, Vashti, refused to be exploited. And yet, God used Esther’s selection by the king for a greater purpose and service. Often, we cannot see it, but God is doing something behind the scenes as part of His redemption plan that is amazing. Pastor Jason will help point us back to God from Esther 2 when we receive those unwanted assignments. Look to Jesus!
