How can we approach God according to the book of Esther?

In the book of Esther, we see that Esther could only approach the king through a specific protocol, which serves as a reflection of our approach to God. Just as Esther risked her life to enter the king’s presence, we are reminded in Scripture that we cannot approach God based on our own merit. Instead, we must come through the golden scepter of Christ’s righteousness. Only through His finished work can we find acceptance before God, who calls us to come to Him boldly, assured of His grace.
