Before going to the King (which was a capital offence if uninvited), Esther didn't just 'wing it'. She called for a 3-day corporate fast. Then she committed to the action regardless of the outcome.

It was a suicide mission unless God intervened. Torah connection: Joel 2:12 (Turn to me with fasting). The Pharisaic distortion: Fasting to be seen of men.

“Go, gather together all the Jews who are present in Shushan, and fast for me, and neither eat nor drink three days, night or day. I and my maidens will also fast the same way. Then I will go in to the king, which is against the law; and if I perish, I perish.”

Esther 4:16
