Dear Bros in Christ,

Proverbs 27:17 As iron sharpens iron, So a man sharpens the countenance of his friend.
Brothers in Christ, this weekly encouragement is sent and meant to be an encouragement to all and to build up and edify in the Lord Jesus Christ. Oikodome means "Builder". The Lord has put this on my heart to send out
a monthly Iron Man Oikodome {oy-kod-om-ay'} to build up and encourage the men who love and follow Jesus Christ in their walk with Him.
Hebrews 3:13 "But encourage one another daily, as long as it is called Today, so that none of you may be hardened by sin's deceitfulness."
PRAYER REQUESTS: If you have any prayer requests please send them and I will send them out to the bros for prayer, if privacy is needed I will send in a discreet way.

"For if you remain completely silent at this time, relief and deliverance will arise
for the Jews from another place, but you and your father's house will perish. Yet
who knows whether you have come to the kingdom for [such] a time as this?"
[Esther 4:14 NKJV]

PERSONAL SACRIFICE

Bros God used Mordecai to encourage and influence Esther to a place of

personal sacrifice. To put her life in a position of being willing to lay it down for
others to the point of possible death. A picture or glimmer of a Christ like action
of a woman of God willing to lay it all down to save her peopleTo do anything
for God and His people.
There is a time in each of our lives just as Esther did, when we need to speak up,
speak out, speak the truth and be bold for our Lord.

Better to be bold for the Lord in life than be silent and perish in fear and in our
flesh. If this is my body and it belongs to the Lord, then so be it, then let it
belong to Christ even to the point of death that I may perish for the glory of the
Lord, rather than perish in the flesh with my fears. The Lord will help each of us
to go beyond our fears and live our life in boldness for Him. Just as Esther risked
her life, may it be true with us that we are willing to be used by God for His
purpose. That He would give us that boldness to always do His will and have the
kind of love that He has to carry out that boldness

Mordecai had the wisdom of God to direct, encourage and influence his niece;
Esther had the willingness and heart of Christ to lay it all down to save her
people.

Bros what are you willing to do for the Lord in your life, for such a time as this?
Do your people need to be saved?
Something to think about, but not for too long Take action, be bold for the
Lord- who knows whether you have come to the kingdom for [such] a time as
this?" Lord please help each of us to give ourselves up, to be bold for You, to be
willing to lay it all down for You that You Lord would be glorified in our lives and
heart-Amen!
Agape,
