Week 1 | Esther | Before I See

In a world where God can sometimes feel silent or distant, the book of Esther reminds us that He is still powerfully at work behind the scenes. In this opening message of our Esther series, Before I See, we explore how God’s providence often unfolds long before we recognize it. Through the political chaos, personal disappointment, and unseen details of Esther chapter 1, we begin to discover that God’s fingerprints are often most visible in hindsight. Even when His name is never mentioned, His presence is unmistakable.

This message challenges us to wrestle with a deeply human question: Is life just random chance, or is someone guiding the story? As we examine the rise and fall of earthly power through the Persian king Xerxes, we’ll see the contrast between human control and divine sovereignty. Whether you are walking through uncertainty, confusion, disappointment, or simply wondering where God is in your story, this message offers hope that God may be working in ways you cannot yet see—but one day you will.
