The Fingerprints of God | Esther 1-8

Mar 22, 2026    Pastor Hayden Norris

Ever feel like God is absent when life gets hard? The book of Esther never mentions God's name, yet His fingerprints are everywhere—working behind the scenes, turning darkness into deliverance.


From a beauty pageant that was really sex trafficking, to a sleepless night that changed history, God was orchestrating an incredible rescue for His people. Queen Esther risked everything. Mordecai did the right thing without reward. And God? He was working through every ordinary moment to accomplish the extraordinary.


Here's your truth today: God is working in your circumstances even when it doesn't look like it. He uses imperfect people in imperfect situations for His perfect plan. That sleepless Tuesday night? That "coincidental" meeting? Those aren't accidents—they're His fingerprints. Your homework this week: trace God's fingerprints in your own story. Where has He been working when you thought He was silent? Life may not be easy, but it is good—because God is all-knowing and always good. Trust Him.
