Scripture:
Esther 4:15-16
"Then Esther sent this reply to Mordecai: 'Go, gather together all the Jews who are in Susa, and fast for me. Do not eat or drink for three days, night or day. I and my attendants will fast as you do.'"
Reflection:
Before Esther stepped into her moment of courage, she called for corporate prayer and fasting. She understood that bold obedience requires spiritual preparation and community support. We weren't meant to face our "such a time as this" moments alone. When God calls you to something significant, surround yourself with people who will pray, fast, and stand with you. The legacy we're building at Victory Family Church isn't individual—it's collective. Your faithfulness inspires others; their prayers strengthen you.
Prayer:
God, thank You for the gift of spiritual community. Help me not to isolate myself when facing difficult decisions or challenging callings. Give me humility to ask others to pray for me and wisdom to know who to invite into my journey. Strengthen the bonds of faith in our church family so we can support one another in our "such a time as this" moments. Amen.
Action:
Reach out to 2-3 people in your church community. Share something God is calling you to and ask them to pray specifically for you this week. Commit to praying for their needs as well
