Ps. 89: God's Own

Psalm 89:27 "I will also appoint him my firstborn, the most exalted of the kings of the earth."

The 89th Psalm is pretty long. And it is mainly about how great David is. And God says a lot of great things about him. This David appears to be someone who's anointing and influence will endure forever. We already know he died, so this isn't his physical nature that goes on. But he is apparently being counted as the greatest king.

And this king will undergo some serious trials, to the point where it will seem like God abandons him. He will be rejected by his people, and they will want him dead.

God's love for David is pretty incredible. David must be a heckuva guy.
