This creates deeper intimacy with the Lord. Esther was more than a kind, eloquent queen. She was an intercessor who prayed for the needs of her people. Her praying and bold stand for truth brought salvation to her Jewish people. Hope will be restored knowing the power of God as we approach His throne room through prayer for family, others, plus our nation, for such a time as this. Cleansing with repentance provides hope to hearts for healing leading to holiness. We see the cultural lifestyle of the history surrounding Esther’s time in Jewish history. Everyone will benefit from the exciting qualities, needs, successes, and failings of several men as well as women. We can learn about the love and care needed through a husband and wife relationship. With Haman and his wife Zeresh, we see spiritual warfare and the anti-Christ spirit. God’s love and covering is seen through Mordecai with Esther. In contrast, we see the lack of a covering through King Ahasuerus with Vashti. Esther was an overcomer living as an orphan then becoming a queen. Outstanding is her obedience to boldly walk into the throne room of King Ahasuerus, for such a time as this. At the end of each chapter, questions bring clarity and life application which could easily be used in a Bible study group. Ultimately, Jesus is our King who is the ruler over all the nations and earth. We will have peaceful moments seeing that He indeed has the whole world in His hands. He offers His entire Kingdom. We acquire His Kingdom by receiving His eternal salvation through believing and repenting. He has won the victory for us as a result of His blood shed on the cross of calvary.
