Leading The Way TV Video Podcast - Ancient Women Speaking to Our Generation | Live a Life of Obedience: Ancient Women Speaking to Our Generation (Part 4)

About this episode

Dr. Michael Youssef discusses the lessons from Esther and other biblical women on obedience and faith in God.

In this final message, Dr. Michael Youssef points to Esther as a woman who saw the need and, by God’s strength, met the need. Scripture, the inerrant Word of God, shows that God placed Esther in the palace for His sovereign purpose: to intercede, obey, and risk everything for His people. Like Hannah and Jochebed, Esther teaches today’s believers to trust God when obedience is costly. Because Jesus Christ is the divine Savior and only hope for sinners, His people must not hide in fear or comfort. We must repent of passivity, pray with urgency, and say, “Here I am,” for such a time as this.
