The Lord Will

Psalm 68:35

β€œO God, thou art terrible out of thy holy places: the God of Israel is he that giveth strength and power unto his people. Blessed be God. ”

KJV

Read in Psalm 68

Meaning

The psalm ends where its major themes converge: sanctuary, divine majesty, and strength given rather than possessed autonomously.

Kingdoms of the earth sing to God

The psalm closes by summoning the kingdoms of the earth to praise the God whose power and majesty are confessed.

Read carefully

The verse praises God as the source of strength; it does not sanctify unaccountable power.

Reflection

Use it for service, protection, justice, and worship rather than domination.
