God has always made His name known beyond Israel.
In Egypt. In Israel. In Persia. In every province and in every city.
Esther shows that God can use judgment, deliverance, providence, and history itself to reveal who He is.
The Great Commission does not begin that purpose. It brings us into it as witnesses of Jesus Christ.

There it was on full display, to the local audience, the promised seed to Abraham through Isaac who was not harmed on the mount Moriah, Jesus Christ the Lamb of God. The words of father Abraham, now echoed in Jesus cry out to his Father. Just as Isaac was inquiring of Abraham about the lamb that was missing, Jesus was inquiring why the Father has forsaken him. Silence was the answer Jesus got and it echoes untill today

Wisdom goes beyond knowledge. Wisdom is preceded by faith without wavering. Acting in wisdom is by faith without wavering and growing in wisdom is by faith without wavering. That’s the wise step we all must take, to trust without doubt. Take a step back and have true moment of honesty towards yourself. Are you trusting without doubt, or doubting without faith?

There is a misplaced fear which produces anxiety and unrealistic expectations of what the world could become. Humanity has lost its compass and purpose, not because it is facing so many innovations requiring adaptations to be made to the physical and the legal infrastructure. I would rather advocate for the loss of constancy and absolutes.
On the contrary, we learn from the Bible that God is eternally unchanged in his pure character. This makes God reliable and trustworthy, so we know what to expect in different life situations.
