Day 233 – Psalm 110

“The LORD is at Your right hand…” Psalm 110:5

FULL ASSURANCE OF DIVINE SUPPORT

The Messiah is assured of full Divine support from the LORD. His Messianic rule would take place when He returns to earth to set up what is commonly called The Millennial Kingdom.

“The LORD is at Your right hand;
He shall execute kings in the day of His wrath.
He shall judge among the nations,
He shall fill the places with dead bodies,
He shall execute the heads of many countries.
He shall drink of the brook by the wayside;
Therefore He shall lift up the head.”
Psalm 110:5-7

A GLIMPSE OF THE SETTING UP OF THE MESSIANIC KINGDOM

1. There will be violent resistance

a) Kings will rise up against the Messiah.
b) The wicked dead would be slain.
c) The heads of many countries would be executed.

2. The Messiah will triumph

a) The LORD will be at His right hand, upholding Him.
b) He will judge the nations.
c) He will carry out the execution orders from the LORD.

3. The challenges of war

a) He will lead His army on war campaigns.
b) He (and His army) would have to drink of the brook by the wayside.
c) This describes the typical way in which great kings identify with their soldiers.
d) He would lift up the heads of many. (Great encouragement because the King is beside them and He humbly drinks of the water from the brooks they come across.)
