Queen Vashti and Her Strong Convictions

Vashti was Queen of Persia and the first wife of Ahasuerus (Xerxes), King of Persia. She was fair to look upon. Her husband, the King was wealthy. He gloated in his wealth for six months. At the conclusion of this eventful lifestyle, he held one last feast of seven days. During this feast, King Ahasuerus summoned for Vashti, his wife. He wanted her to parade before the princes and nobles of all his provinces to show off her beauty.

Queen Vashti refused to do so and was dethroned. This remarkable story is recorded in chapter 1 of the Book of Esther. God has a master plan for all of us. Sometimes we don’t know how His plans for our lives are interwoven into His plans for the lives of others. God in His infinite wisdom, allowed Queen Vashti to be dethroned so Queen Esther would become Queen of Persia at the right time for the right reason.
