One was a foreigner and a peasant. The other, a reluctant queen to a man she hardly knew. But their stories have one thing in common: A remarkable faith committed to doing God's will. For both Ruth and Esther, God used stressful circumstances to bring about his eternal purposes. Ruth's commitment to the God of Naomi affected every generation to come, as she became an ancestor of King David and more importantly, Jesus Christ. Esther's obedience led to the preservation of her people at a moment in history when all seemed lost. The stories of Ruth and Esther will make you contemplate: Would I trust God enough to do what they did? Go chapter by chapter through the books of Ruth and Esther to see how the lives of these two remarkable women epitomize the type of faith that glorifies God. As you read, ask yourself: How does God want to use my faithful commitment? Will he use your life to affect the generations to come, or will he use your life to impact the current generation? Either way, author Warren Wiersbe helps you to be prepared and be committed to God's will no matter what the cost. No library descriptions found. |

Esther, an orphan who became Queen of Persia, faced a difficult decision. Haman had put a plan into place to kill all the Jewish people spread out over Persia. Approaching the king unbidden was punishable by death - even for the queen. Esther could appeal for the lives of her people and, as her cousin Mordecai told her, maybe she was placed in her position for “such a time as this.” Esther remained committed and chose to go before the king unbidden and, “if I perish, I perish.” Through this commitment, the Jewish people were saved from Haman’s wicked plot and Esther’s life was spared. Neither of these women took the easy way out.
Warren Wiersbe says that Ruth and Esther “encourage me to be faithful in my service to the glory of the Lord. At an hour in history when it’s easy to compromise and even to quit, these two heroines of the faith tell me to be committed to the Lord and to do the will of God, come what may.” ( )
