Embrace Jesus’ compassion and power as revealed in these biblical accounts of women set free. Search your heart and release your same issues to the Lord. Experience freedom in Christ, who lovingly extends grace and compassionately restores.

Journey with Jesus and appreciate His dealings with three women of differing backgrounds. Ponder how He sought each one right where she was and witness His life-changing impact on each of their lives. Treasure the truth that He seeks and impacts us as well.

5. Reaching for Righteousness (Choose 3-4 from the list below.) 

  • What is Righteousness?

Being a Christian isn’t easy in today’s society—sometimes we struggle to do what is right. Though our view can get clouded and our circumstances fluctuate, God’s standards remain sure. His way is always the best when it comes to matters of the heart or actions we must take. Contemplate the courage and obedience of Queen Esther, who pursued righteousness despite the odds. Learn from the past and gain spiritual insights about living in the present.

Take-away Point: Just as God used Esther in an extraordinary way, He can use us as we pursue righteousness in our daily lives.
