The king rejoices in your strength, Lord.

How great is his joy in the victories you give!

2You have granted him his heart’s desire

and have not withheld the request of his lips.^b

3You came to greet him with rich blessings

and placed a crown of pure gold on his head.

4He asked you for life, and you gave it to him—

length of days, for ever and ever.

5Through the victories you gave, his glory is great;

you have bestowed on him splendor and majesty.

6Surely you have granted him unending blessings

and made him glad with the joy of your presence.

7For the king trusts in the Lord;

through the unfailing love of the Most High

he will not be shaken. Psalm 21:1-7

What king do you think the Psalmist is talking about now? Who is our real king?

The king rejoices in your strength, Lord.

How great is his joy in the victories you give!

2You have granted him his heart’s desire

and have not withheld the request of his lips.^b

3You came to greet him with rich blessings

and placed a crown of pure gold on his head. Psalm 21:1-3

The United States has been greatly blessed, not just our rulers. Yet we have squandered so much of that blessing. Pray that we would squander our blessings from God no more.
