King David knew the importance of ruling righteously. He was resolved to have a clean “administration”—honest from the top down. Christians no doubt desire to see the same in our day. And we can. If we do with this psalm what we should—turn it into a prayer—God may one day grant us such leadership in our land.
It was no mistake that Jesus was crucified between two criminals, but we do well to remember that there were not only two criminals on Golgotha that day.
The hundredth psalm is a fitting doxology to the previous seven royal psalms. The recipients of the blessings from the sovereign King are encouraged to employ their affections, minds and bodies in giving thanks to their faithful Lord.
