"The King Rejoices in the Lord's Strength" [Psalm 21]

in

I love this opening line of the Twenty-First Psalm:

O Lord, in your strength the king rejoices!

Like yesterday’s psalm, Psalm 21 is also a royal psalm—a prayer for the king.

Can you imagine the Israelite army stretched out for battle, singing and shouting these words? What a thrilling sight that must have been.

Be exalted, O Lord, in your strength!
    We will sing and praise your power.

AMEN. Happy Sunday, everyone.
