Tonight's family reading · Siracusa
Esther Speaks Up — a 5-minute devotion for Siracusa families
Esther 4 · Using the place you have been given
A young queen learned her people were about to be destroyed. Speaking to the king uninvited could cost her life. Her cousin told her she had been placed there for such a time as this — so she went.
This works best in Siracusa as a bedtime reading. Lights low, Esther 4 read slowly, the memory verse said twice, then the prayer. Younger children fall asleep on "using the place you have been given"; older ones usually want to argue about it first, which is fine.
Memory verse
“And who knows but that you have come to your royal position for such a time as this?”Esther 4:14
Table question
Where has God placed you where you could speak up for someone?
30-second prayer
God, give us Esther's nerve — to use whatever place we have for people who have none. Amen.
Make it stick: draw it. Younger children draw the moment in Esther 4 they remember; older ones write one sentence about why it bothered them. Stick both on the wall.
Tomorrow: the banquet and the turn-around (Esther 7). ArkQuest queues the next reading automatically, so nobody has to decide what comes after tonight.
On Mount Carmel, Elijah rebuilt an altar of twelve stones before calling on the Lord. What did the twelve stones represent?
