Psalm 110

This is the declaration of the LORD
to my LORD:
“Sit at my right hand . . . “
“You are a priest forever
according to the pattern
of Melchizedek.”

This is the triumphant and righteous Christ – ruling and leading His people.

The victorious King, sitting at the Lord’s right hand. Victorious.

And, serving His people as priest, not a priest bound by the Law, but a priest like Melchizedek. A priest who is right before God, who represents God to His people and the people to God. One with direct access through His sacrifice – His life, victorious on the cross.

We rejoice, celebrate, honor this King the Priest. We know this is Jesus Christ, Son of God, Son of Man, ruling, reigning for us.

Lord, be our King,

Our Priest.

Save us by your compassionate love – in Christ!
