Psalm 110:1-7
I find Psalm 110 a bit of a harder read than some of the other psalms. It's not praise oriented (which I like) and it contains prophecy pertaining to Jesus. So as I considered application I could take away from these verses, I decided to step back and take a big picture approach. To do that, I read through the chapter a number of additional times. I thought about things like the relationship between David and the Lord, and then just considered what these verses showed me about God. Now I'll be honest, this exercise wasn't as easy as time spent in one of the praise psalms. But, I learned and benefitted from it in a deep way. Plus, God used this passage to remind me that work is a necessary part of my growing process.
So how did you approach Psalm 110? Did you come at these verses looking for and considering details and information, or were you more like me, looking more generally at what Psalm 110 shows us about God and relationship? What did you discover? Tami W.
Hello Tami,
It's also interesting to note that Jesus uses this in Matthew 22 in asking the Pharisees a few questions.
Thanks and Kind regards,
Remembering God's mercy and God's grace,
Until Christ Jesus our Lord returns,

I also found this passage somewhat difficult but good. Believe we might only be scratching the surface of this one. Thanks for my daily bible study each morning!
