Yahweh is king
Psalm 93
93 Yahweh is king; he clothes himself with majesty. Yahweh clothes himself; he girds himself with might. Yes, the world is established so that it will not be moved. 2 Your throne is established from of old; you are from everlasting. 3 The rivers have lifted up, O Yahweh; the rivers have lifted up their ⌊rumbling⌋; the rivers have lifted up their pounding. 4 Mightier than the rumblings of many waters, mightier than the mighty breakers of the sea, Yahweh on high is mighty. 5 Your testimonies are fully reliable. Holiness is fitting for your house, O Yahweh, ⌊forever⌋.
Observations
-
Yahweh is king; he clothes himself with majesty. Yahweh clothes himself; he girds himself with might.
- It seems relevant to focus on Yahweh, the king, clothing himself. He has partners, humans, and ceremonial guardians in the spiritual realm (cherubim, seraphim, etc) and yet he clothes himself. His court doesn't clothe him - they praise him certainly, but no one puts on Yahweh's kingly attire besides Yahweh himself
-
You are everlasting
- In my post by-gods-grace I note that Yahweh owns us and everything. He is the ruler of the universe because he is everlasting... no beginning and no end
Reflection
by-gods-grace the words "Yahweh is king" are a comfort to me. I am a wretch, but a wretch Yahweh is working on, has grace with, and ultimately invites into paradise... Paradise in that he invites me to be a complete human, to fulfil purpose I was designed for. By God's grace, he is king and he's given me a will that seeks to align with his... Amen
