Psalm 110:1-2. “The Lord said unto my Lord, ‘Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool.’ The Lord shall send the rod of thy strength out of Zion: rule thou in the midst of thine enemies.”
THE CORONATION. An awesome sight unfolds before my eyes: One moves towards God’s throne while all enemies lie Prostrate before Him who was once despised and rejected – Now above all mankind, this Man is accepted To fill a throne at God’s right hand, most holy – Taking the place reserved for Him only – Where God’s rule is established under the unique King-Priest And from the fractious nations, all war and resistance ceased.
His rod is extended over every part of the earth – And holiness then reigns after the day of His wrath. He judges in righteousness, and His moral strength, like the dew Covers the land over every person, not just a few. People gladly offer themselves on that day to their King. The weak and the strong, their offerings they bring. The kings of the earth give all their honor to Him And His kingdom of peace will be worldwide then.
Seated on His throne is David’s royal Son – Finally, the covenant is fulfilled in this Holy One. No jostling for position, for He is the only One fit To bring to earth the righteousness He promised it. His head is uplifted and exalted – there is no crown of thorns: The diadems He wears are all rightfully His own. Grace is still in His lips – though in His hand a rod of iron – And the King reigns supreme in His strength out of Zion.
“It will be a day of universal rejoicing, O Lord God, when the Throne-Sitter brings glory to God and peace on earth to men that was promised so long ago and has been missing. I am anxiously awaiting the day of His coronation. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.”
