Intercessory Prayer and Divine Timing
In Episode 5 of Esther, we turn our attention to the powerful theme of intercessory prayer as the story moves steadily toward its dramatic climax. Drawing from the Additional Greek chapters (Esther 13:8–15:16, also known as C:1–D:16) alongside Esther 5:1–6:10, this lesson reveals how prayer becomes the unseen force shaping history.
We will define and explore intercessory prayer, closely examining Mordecai’s prayer and Esther’s prayer, and how their faith-filled pleas align with God’s sovereign guidance. As the tension rises within the narrative, we witness God orchestrating events with precision—positioning His people for deliverance at exactly the right moment.
This episode invites viewers to see how earnest prayer, courage, and obedience work together as God brings about His purposes, culminating in a turning point that changes everything.
