Psalm 45

Every Wednesday I get to prayer lead the 2am worship with the Word set, right now we are doing Psalm 45 the "Song of Songs" of the Psalms. I have two favourite cycles. Today I will talk about one of them Psalm 45:3-5 (Gird up your sword O mighty one....) What I love is what it says in verse 4 "on behalf of truth, humility and righteousness ride on". Basically these verses are telling Jesus we want him to come back and judge the earth and we agree with his judgments, he is true, he is meek and he is right and he will fight lies, pride and wickedness (everything that opposes who he is). And he will win. There is a day hidden in his heart, the day when he will make all the wrong things right, a day when his enemies will be killed, when he will vindicate his Bride and avenge her blood. And this is GOOD NEWS, I don't know if anyone has noticed, but there is much wickedness on this earth and there is only One who is worthy, only one who is pure enough to Judge - the lamb that was slain, the one who died to set us free to love him without shame.

Worthy is the Lamb who was slain to open the seals! (release God's judgment upon the earth)
