Psalm 45: Your throne is forever

Read Psalm 45:1-17 before you meet.

In a few lines

"Grace has anointed your lips" (45:2) and "God, your God, has anointed you" (45:7) are two Hebrew verbs: the first is yatsaq, to pour. The king is told to ride "on behalf of truth, humility, and righteousness" (45:4). And Hebrews gives 45:6-7 "of the Son" (Hebrews 1:8).

The verse to carry

“Your throne, God, is forever and ever. A scepter of equity is the scepter of your kingdom.”

Psalm 45:6

To talk about

  1. 1. The king rides "on behalf of truth, humility, and righteousness" (45:4). Which of the three is hardest for you to stand up for where you are this week?

  2. 2. "You have loved righteousness, and hated wickedness" (45:7). What would it look like for you to love what is right, and not only keep away from what is wrong?

  3. 3. "My heart overflows with a noble theme" (45:1). If your heart overflowed about Jesus this week, what would you want to say about him?
