Week Four Devotional
Mordecai sent this reply to Esther: “Don’t think for a moment that because you’re in
the palace you will escape when all other Jews are killed. If you keep quiet at a time
like this, deliverance and relief for the Jews will arise from some other place, but
you and your relatives will die. Who knows if perhaps you were made queen for just
such a time as this?”
Then Esther sent this reply to Mordecai: “Go and gather together all the Jews of
Susa and fast for me. Do not eat or drink for three days, night or day. My maids and
I will do the same. And then, though it is against the law, I will go in to see the king.
If I must die, I must die.” So Mordecai went away and did everything as Esther had
ordered him.
