The three-day fast that Esther decreed for herself and all the other Jews (Esther 4:16) were days of prayer and repentance, just like every other Jewish fast throughout history. Also, Esther could have remained safe in her opulent palace as the Jews were slaughtered (Esther 4:13), but instead she risked her life to intercede for them (Esther 4:16), which was an act of faith in God.

God answered Esthers prayer. When the king saw Esther standing in the court, she obtained favour in his sight and he granted that her request be given to her even the half of the kingdom. Esther requested that her life and the life of her people be given at her petition. This is the request that Esther made to God as she fasted and prayed and God saw to it that it happened.
