Esther Speaks Up — a 5-minute devotion for Welkom 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.

Parents in Welkom often ask what to do when siblings are years apart in age. Read Esther 4 together, then split the question: ask the younger child what happened in the story, and ask the older one why "using the place you have been given" is harder than it sounds.

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.
