11月3日 死就死吧!

斯4:13-16
末底改托人回复以斯帖说、你莫想在王宫里强过一切犹大人、得免这祸.此时你若闭口不言、犹大人必从别处得解脱、蒙拯救、你和你父家、必致灭亡.焉知你得了王后的位分、不是为现今的机会么。以斯帖就吩咐人回报末底改说、你当去招聚书珊城所有的犹大人、为我禁食三昼三夜、不吃不喝.我和我的宫女、也要这样禁食.然后我违例进去见王.我若死就死吧。
Then Mordecai asked them return answer to Esther, "Don't think to yourself that you will escape in the king's house any more than all the Jews. For if you remain silent now, then relief and deliverance will come to the Jews from another place, but you and your father's house will perish. Who knows if you haven't come to the kingdom for such a time as this?"
Then Esther asked them to answer Mordecai,
"Go, gather together all the Jews who are present in Shushan, and fast for me, and neither eat nor drink three days, night or day. I and my maidens will also fast the same way. Then I will go in to the king, which is against the law; and if I perish, I perish."
主耶稣!以斯帖说"死就死吧!"这是决定,是信心的宣告。从我们的决定就可以看到信心在那里,从我们的行为就可以看到信心的真实。主啊!我要真实的信心,有勇气的信心。
