COURAGE STORY · THE THRONE ROOM · ESTHER 4–5
DAY 04
The Banquet First
“Let the king and Haman come today to the banquet that I have prepared.”
Esther 5:4
Reflection
Having reached the throne room, she did not blurt it out. She set a table and waited. Courage is not only nerve; it is also timing, preparation, and the patience to let the right moment arrive.
PRAY
God, give me the kind of courage that prepares. Keep me from confusing urgency with obedience, and let me do this well rather than merely fast.
Amen.
DECLARE
Courage that prepares is still courage.
TODAY'S PRACTICE
Do one thing that makes the hard conversation land better: the facts in order, the setting chosen, the first sentence written.
