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.

Certain events described in the book of Esther showed Gods providence before and after the prayer: Mordecai's position, how he saved the king, how the king couldn't sleep and stayed up to read the chronicles, how Haman was moved to jealousy to build the gallows, and especially how Esther was chosen to be queen at "such a time as this" etc....

How was Esther of the Bible sustained by God?

A:God is never mentioned in the Book of Esther as originally written. It was a secular novel and the author makes no suggestion that Esther was sustained by God in her troubles or achievements. However, the Additions to Esther, used by the Catholic Church but recognised as not original although inspired, do mention God. In the Additions to Esther, being in fear of death, she prays, "O thou mighty God above all, hear the voice of the forlorn and deliver us out of the hands of the mischievous, and deliver me out of my fear.

How did God protect Esther in the book of Esther?

A:The Book of Esther is not a religious book and does not even mention God. Biblical scholars regard it as a second-century-BCE Jewish novel, and historians say there never was either a Queen Vashti or a Queen Esther of Persia. We can therefore say that the book does not suggest that Esther relied on God for any assistance, and nor did she obtain divine assistance in history. Esther was able to overcome difficulties through her own talents, expressed in the book.
