the king’s victory

Psalm 47:5 (JDV)

Psalm 47:5 God goes up amid shouts of joy, Yahveh, with the sound of trumpets.

the king’s victory

The picture before us is of a king advancing to take over territory won in battle. But the king is God himself, accompanied by the joyful shouts of his followers who share his victory, and the trumpets which announce it.

No matter what you are facing today, that picture is a prophecy of your future. Because of this future reality, a present challenge can be bearable. Because we are destined to inherit eternal life, we can confidently face setbacks, difficulties— even our own deaths.

We have seen the future, and God wins, therefore we win.

Lord, thank you for your all encompassing victory.
