Show: Reading the Bible Daily with DaveHost: Dave JenkinsDate: Friday, December 26, 2025Passage: Esther 5 (ESV)Episode Summary
In Esther 5, we see courageous faith put into action. Esther steps into the king’s presence at great risk, trusting God’s unseen providence. With wisdom and patience, she moves according to God’s timing, while Haman’s pride grows darker and more destructive. This chapter calls us to bold obedience, humble faith, and confidence in the God who governs every detail for His redemptive purposes.Listen and Watch
