Pray this Lazaroo with no-holds-barred surrender:

“…he set a royal crown on her head and made her queen instead of Vashti.”
(Esther 2:17)

Interesting, Jesus.

You needed Esther on the throne to save Your people.
Vashti had to go.

You could have killed Vashti.

Instead, You let her take a moral stand

which she took and lost her throne
while keeping her dignity.

Was Vashti grateful?

Probably no more than I am when You do me a kindness
and I, heartbroken, view it as punishment.

Pray this Lazaroo…in awe:

“…he set a royal crown on her head and made her queen…”
(Esther 2:17)

What a moment for Esther, Jesus!

And what a moment for her people, the Jews.

Little did either of them know You were behind it, Father

that there was coming a day when she would be needed
to save Your chosen nation from annihilation.

How many of the moments of my life have strategic future implications?

Knowing You, I’d have to guess…

all of them.
