Psalm 21 - Praying God's Word

Please read Psalm 21.

Meditate on verse 7.

For the king trusts in the LORD, and through the lovingkindness

of the Most High, he will not be shaken.

Read Psalm 20:9-21:1 to understand the relationship King David had with the King:

Save, O LORD; may the King answer us in the day we call.

Oh LORD, in Your strength the king will be glad,

and in Your salvation, how greatly he will rejoice.

Even though David was king of Israel, he knew who the real King was.  He humbly acknowledged his dependence on that King’s strength and salvation instead of his own.  Notice the results of trusting in the King:

1.     The LORD gave him his heart’s desire and the request of his lips (v. 2.).

2.     The LORD met him with the blessings of good things and set a crown on his head (v. 3).

3.     The LORD gave him life and length of days forever and ever (v. 4).

4.     The LORD gave him glory, salvation, splendor, and majesty (v. 5).

5.     The LORD made him most blessed forever (v. 6).

David experienced such blessing from the LORD because he simply trusted in the LORD (v. 7).  Do you simply trust the LORD with every aspect of your life?

Pray Psalm 21:1, 7, and 13 over yourself and those for whom you stand guard as a faithful, prayerful watchman (Isaiah 62:6-7).

“O LORD, in Your strength, __________ and I will be glad, and in Your salvation,

we will greatly rejoice!  LORD, we trust in You, and through Your lovingkindness,

Most High, we will not be shaken.  Be exalted, O LORD, in Your strength;

we will sing and praise Your power.

In Your name, King Jesus~”
