The king and the Beautiful


Esther  2:2 Then said the king's servants that ministered unto him, Let there be fair young virgins sought for the king:  2:3 And let the king appoint officers in all the provinces of his kingdom, that they may gather together all the fair young virgins unto Shushan the palace, to the house of the women, unto the custody of Hege the king's chamberlain, keeper of the women; and let their things for purification be given them:

It was a time for King Ahasuerus to choose a new bride after Queen vashti lost her place in the palace.

Just as the custom,  the king requested for beautiful maidens,  spotless,  presentable and also who are still virgins. 

There should be a call to reason  as to why the  king was so specific in  his quest for the kind of bride...  This is a point to note that,  just anybody cannot stand before the king talk more of becoming the bride. 

The same is applicable to God the king of kings. 

If the king of this world  could be so specific,  how much  more  the king of Kings

The king of Kings is looking for the beautiful,  the spotless,  virgins,  full of wisdom and ready to deliver

The king of this world may look after the outward appearance,  but the king of Kings is looking at your inward disposition

The beautiful the king of Kings is looking for,  is that person who lives a holy life

That person who is not spoilt with the lust of this world

That person who has a clean hands and a pure heart
Someone who doesn't hate his neighbour
Someone who is not a murderer
Someone who is not a Fornicator
Someone who does not oppress the poor
Someone who does not keep malice
Someone who is not a thief and traitor
Someone who does not live a life of sin

The king of Kings is looking for the beautiful

Check your life,  do you have the qualifications??
If it's no, then your christian journey is still a rat race

Change your ways of life and be qualify to stand before the king of Kings

God bless you.
