Read Psalms 45 in context

Scripture Focus

2Thou art fairer than the children of men: grace is poured into thy lips: therefore God hath blessed thee for ever.

3Gird thy sword upon thy thigh, O most mighty, with thy glory and thy majesty.

4And in thy majesty ride prosperously because of truth and meekness and righteousness; and thy right hand shall teach thee terrible things.

5Thine arrows are sharp in the heart of the king's enemies; whereby the people fall under thee.

6Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: the sceptre of thy kingdom is a right sceptre.

7Thou lovest righteousness, and hatest wickedness: therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.

Psalms 45:2-7

Biblical Context

The psalm speaks of the inner self as a gracious, sovereign figure blessed forever. It centers on truth, righteousness, and a reign of grace over imagined enemies.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within Psalm 45:2-7 you discover the inner sovereign seated on the throne of your heart. The beauty and grace spoken of are the living reality of your awareness when you choose to imagine from the I AM. Grace is poured into thy lips because you decide to speak from truth rather than fear. Gird your sword upon thy thigh—your discernment activates through truth, meekness, and righteousness, and your right hand shall teach you terrible things as you learn to balance power with mercy. Your arrows are sharp in the heart of the king's enemies; whereby the people fall under thee—these are the thoughts and imaginal patterns that pierce belief in external foes, dissolving them. Your throne, O God, is forever: the sceptre of thy kingdom is a right sceptre—your inner authority rests on steady righteousness. You love righteousness and hate wickedness; therefore God, your God, hath anointed you with the oil of gladness above thy fellows. Stay in that state and the outward world will bow to the inner royal realization.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, assume the feeling of ruling from your inner throne, and declare softly, 'I am grace; I rule my world with truth and righteousness.' Hold that state until it feels real.
