[Queen Esther]

Be courageous and strong of heart. Yes, hope in Jehovah.—Ps. 27:14.

We get courage by trusting in God and following the steps of his Son. (Ps. 28:7) During his ministry, Jesus showed courage in various ways. He boldly exposed the religious leaders for misleading the people with false teachings. (Matt. 23:13-36) He stood firm against the world’s contaminating influence. (John 16:33) He continued to preach despite pressure from opposers. (John 5:15-18; 7:14) Twice, he fearlessly cleansed the temple, driving out those who were defiling the worship there. (Matt. 21:12, 13; John 2:14-17) In the garden of Gethsemane, Jesus fearlessly identified himself to the soldiers who came to arrest him. Although his own life was in danger, he spoke up to protect his disciples. (John 18:1-8) When questioned before the Sanhedrin, he boldly affirmed that he was both the Christ and the Son of God, even though he knew that the high priest was looking for an excuse to have him killed.—Mark 14:60-65. w15 2/15 2:3, 5, 6
