*YOUR HUSBAND IS A KING, TREAT HIM AS ONE.*(Series 7) *Scripture Reading:* Esther 1:10-12 You are a Queen in his palace just because the man is a King. And your Queen-ship is invalid the moment his kingship is irrelevant to you. Esther 1:10-12 says; *"On the seventh day, when the king’s heart was joyful with wine (in high spirits), he commanded Mehuman, Biztha, Harbona, Bigtha, Abagtha, Zethar, and Carkas, the seven eunuchs who served in the presence of King Ahasuerus [as his attendants], to bring Queen Vashti before the king, wearing her royal crown (high turban), to display her beauty before the people and the officials, for she was lovely to see. But Queen Vashti refused to come at the king’s command, which was delivered [to her] by the eunuchs. So the king became extremely angry and burned with rage."* I can't imagine the excitement that befall King Ahasuerus. The Joy and happiness that came from his heart to show the BEAUTY of the QUEEN of SUSAN the capital of Persian empire. *It certain that the King love and honored the queen wholeheartedly why? He didn't ordered just one eunuch his attendant to usher in the QUEEN but he ordered seven eunuchs that attended to him alone to bring in the QUEEN of SUSAN.* What a glory and honor a man can give his loving wife. The QUEEN turndown the honor giving to her by the King. She didn't only disgrace the eunuchs, but also bring shame to the KING and the quest waiting for the arrival of the QUEEN of SUSAN to behold her BEAUTY. Queen Vashti forgotten that she can only organized a special party for all the women in town because she was a Queen to King Ahasuerus. *"Queen Vashti also held a [separate] banquet for the women in the palace of King Ahasuerus."*(Esther 1:9). Whenever you rubbish or arrogantly against the order or wish of your King (Husband), you gradually lose your Queen-Ship in the kingdom. *Vashti lose her kingdom to a slave girl called Hadassah(Esther) who will appreciate the kingship and submit to his authority. Value your King (Husband).* One important thing to note, women; *No Matter how skillful, brilliant, gifted, romantic or spiritual you are, if you are not SUBMISSIVE to your husband (King), you can't know him, enjoy him and you can't please him no matter how beautiful you are. And the moment you don't know your husband, the marriage cannot work because you both will be working on difference frequency.* To be continue tomorrow morning by God's Grace. Good morning and do have a fruitful weekend, peace. *Prayer point:* I cast out the spirit of pride in me that can make me to lose my right in my marriage in Jesus Christ name. T.S. AFOLAYAN
