The King Installed: God’s Answer to the Nations - Psalm 2

Pastor Simons’ Simple Sermons

This week we dive into Psalm 2, a profound and challenging text that unveils humanity’s resistance to God’s rule and the ultimate triumph of His sovereignty. Often referred to as a royal and messianic psalm, Psalm 2 historically echoes the coronation of Israel’s kings but also points forward to the promised reign of Christ. We explore the psalm’s four distinct scenes: the rebellion of the nations, God’s sovereign response, the rule of His anointed King, and the call to submission. Together, these verses remind us that while human powers may rage and plot, true blessing is found in surrendering to God’s reign. Join us as we examine how this ancient psalm calls us today to live under the authority of our King, Jesus Christ, and to find refuge in His unshakable kingdom.
