Songs of the Kingdom: Psalm 2.
This prophetic Psalm is one of the richest, Messianic Psalms written, giving us an understanding of the absolute authority of Israel’s coming Messiah. Psalm 2 points us to the future of the Messiah’s Kingship and Kingdom, and the ultimate subjugation of Christ’s enemies and the kings of this world, where the final reality is laid out: all will either submit to Christ the King’s eternal reign, or be destroyed.
The timeline presented in Psalm 2 not only points us to partial fulfillment in Acts 4, but also contains within it a key verse, that presents a powerful foundational truth, positioning and enabling His church to have the correct heart posture and spiritual response in this current era of the Holy Spirit; both toward those who would oppose Christ’s authority, and to those who are lost and need to know Him.
