Esther
God brings salvation at just the right time in just the right way. Had the decree to wipe all of the Jews off the earth been fulfilled, God's promise to provide the Messiah through Abraham's descendants would have failed. Instead, God brought salvation to His people through Esther, who interceded for them at great risk to her own life. God would provide a greater salvation, one from sin and death, through Jesus, who interceded for us and laid down His life on our behalf. Because Christ interceded on our behalf, we recognize that God has placed us where we are at this time to share the gospel with others so that they might be saved, even if it comes at great risk to us.
