Psalm 21

Dec 3, 2024    Pastor Manning

This psalm expresses heartfelt and communal gratitude for the king's thriving and joyful reign. Its theme closely aligns with the previous psalm, which presented a shared prayer meant to instill a genuine concern among the people for their leader's well-being. Here, the idea is that the king's safety and success should inspire joy and celebration throughout the kingdom, as God aims to protect the whole community. Above all, the Holy Spirit seeks to guide the thoughts of the faithful toward Christ, who embodies this kingdom's ultimate purpose and fulfillment, reminding them that true salvation comes only under the leadership that God has chosen for them.
