Psalm 21
We have had the response of the people to the king, now we have the response of the king to the Lord, and just as the last psalm gives us some guidance on how we should treat our leaders, this one gives us guidance on how to react as leaders. First we are to rejoice in the Lord’s strength. If we are in a leadership position, or any position of responsibility, we are there not to do things in our strength, but to do things in the Lord’s strength. The Lord finds joy in the victories that He gives us.
The Lord looks after the king, and gives him his heart’s desire. He places a crown on his head. The Lord looks after hHis leaders.
The king trusts in the Lord, we are secure when we trust in the Lord. We lead on behalf of the Lord, to fulfil His purposes, not our own. The Lord will consume His enemie, and His Name will be praised.
