"For Such a Time as This"
(A Worship Song for Purim)

[Verse 1]
A whisper in the palace halls,
A calling deep inside,
A moment set for glory,
No more fear, no place to hide.

[Pre-Chorus]
The scepter's raised, the time is near,
Step in with faith, cast out the fear!

[Chorus]
Queen Esther, your time has come,
For such a time as this!
You will be faithful, stand for truth,
And your people will be saved!
Oh, the Lord has called your name,
Rise with courage, shine with grace!

[Verse 2]
A kingdom ruled by darkness,
Yet light is breaking through.
A plan of wrath was written,
But God has chosen you!

[Pre-Chorus]
The scepter’s raised, the time is near,
Step in with faith, cast out the fear!

[Chorus]
Queen Esther, your time has come,
For such a time as this!
You will be faithful, stand for truth,
And your people will be saved!
Oh, the Lord has called your name,
Rise with courage, shine with grace!

[Bridge]
If I perish, I will perish,
But I stand for God alone!
He is mighty, He is sovereign,
Through His power, I am strong!

[Final Chorus]
Queen Esther, your time has come,
For such a time as this!
You will be faithful, stand for truth,
And your people will be saved!

[Outro]
For such a time as this, we stand,
With courage in the Father's hand!

Called to Build—Embracing God’s Design
Scripture for Meditation: “And let them make Me a sanctuary, that I may dwell among them.” – Exodus 25:8

Every one of us is invited to participate in building a holy space—a dwelling where God’s presence can reside. In Parashat Terumah, God gives detailed instructions for the tabernacle, emphasizing that every brick, every piece of fabric, and every precious metal has a sacred purpose. Just as the Israelites were called to create a sanctuary, you are invited to build a life that reflects God’s design. When you dedicate your time, talents, and treasures for His glory, you are constructing your personal sanctuary of faith.

Consider your daily life as a space under renovation. Each act of kindness, every moment of prayer, and even your struggles can be transformed into building blocks for a deeper relationship with God. It’s a fun and dynamic process, much like crafting a masterpiece—where every small effort counts. As you meditate on this verse, remember that God doesn’t demand perfection but a willing heart ready to collaborate in His divine project.

Reflection Question: What part of your life can you offer today to create a sacred space for God’s presence?

Prayer:
Lord, thank You for calling me to be a builder of Your sanctuary. Help me to use my gifts joyfully, so that Your light may shine in and through my life. Amen.

🚪✨ WHEN GOD SAYS "GO," YOU GO! ✨🚪

Pharaoh said "No"—but God said "Go!" (Bo, בֹּא).

This week's Torah portion is an epic showdown: 🌊 plagues, 🌑 supernatural darkness, 🐑 the first Passover, and finally—FREEDOM! 🙌

Imagine it: God commands His people to mark their doorposts with the blood of the lamb, and the angel of death passes over their homes. 🩸🏠 Fast forward to Yeshua, our Passover Lamb, who covers us with His blood and sets us free! 🔥

But here's the real question: Are we still living like slaves when God has already called us to freedom?

Pharaoh's biggest mistake? A hard heart. (Ex. 10:1) Don't let stubbornness keep you in Egypt when God is calling you out! 💥

✨ Your challenge this week: Where is God saying "Go" in your life? Are you moving forward, or are you holding back?

👇 Drop a ✋ in the comments if you’re stepping into freedom this week! Let’s talk about it.
