The King's Daughter

Just thought I'd leave a little tidbit today. It has been a while since I've posted. I hope you're encouraged :)

The king's daughter [is] all glorious within: her clothing [is] of wrought gold. 
Psalm 45:13 

My purpose today is just to remind you of the way the Lord feels about you, His people, His church. First, we see that the king's daughter (God's people) are all glorious within. That means God views us as stately, precious even. 

All beautiful you are, my darling; there is no flaw in you.
Songs 4:7

By His blood, the Lord has cleansed us and even our consciences. And that is what He sees. He says of the beloved, "there is NO flaw in you." Isn't His grace awesome?
I want you all today to consider God's feelings about you, and reject those other feelings, because they are untrue since they don't come from He who is truth.
Since we know that God feels this way, let us stop settling for less. I don't mean settling in a carnal sense. I don't mean don't settle for less than the best houses, cars, jobs, and money. God doesn't appoint all of us to live a lavish lifestyle in the natural. However, He will give us spiritual riches. Let us stop settling for just a little of God's presence. Don't settle for a mediocre prayer life or worship life. God sees you as "all glorious within" and He will not reject you from his presence.
In fact, we know that the Lord speaks very highly of us in heaven and directly to us if we let Him.
Glorious things are said of you, O city of God: Selah 
Psalm 87:3 


God will not reject us if we come to Him. There is nothing in our pasts so unclean, so bad that His blood cannot cover. When he looks at you, He sees His blood and what He is building on the inside of you, and it is "all glorious."

19Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus, 
20By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh; 
21And [having] an high priest over the house of God; 
22Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water.
Heb 10:19-22
