Psalm 21: Choose To Sing A Song of Joy or of Sorrow

What this episode covers

Psalm 20 theme was destroy Your enemies and build Your kingdom. Psalm 21 is the reverse of build Your kingdom and destroy Your enemies. David's heart's desire was inline with Jesus' heart's desire. It was Jesus' desire to take on death for you even though He did not look forward to the darkness and pain. Vs 3 The king's blessing will come upon you. We are joint hears. Everything the king inherits, we share. Vs 4 Jesus gave His life into God's hands. He was gien resurrection. Jesus' glory, honor, majesty in salvation is shared with use even though we do not deserve it. Not only do we benefit from having a good king and not only being court members, but we get to stay in His presence and go wherever the king goes. Our own belief gets in the way so that we don't believe we will get to be in His presence. I don't know a better enticement of salvation than being with the king without pain or death. The second half of the psalm portrays the alternative if you refuse God's judgments. In their arrogance and pride, they think they can hide from God's judgments. You will choose one of these two options for your life. You are either part of His kingdom or you choose death under the pentaly of His wrath. We will sing and praise God's power. Either we will sing a song of joy or a song of sorrow and lament.
