The Gospel of the Kingdom (2 Samuel 22:32-51)

In the first part of this psalm, we heard David sing that Yahweh moved heaven and earth to rescue him. In the central section, we learned that this was because Yahweh delighted in David and his righteousness. Now, in the final section, the emphasis shifts from deliverance to dominion. It’s not just that Yahweh saves David from trouble; he gives him the victory and brings him the nations all to the praise of his glory. In this sermon, pastor Matt helps us see that the Lord exalts his king so that the nations might praise his name. This psalm is a song about the good news of how the kingdom of this world becomes the kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ, how even his enemies can come to rejoice in his steadfast love.
