Psalms 45:3

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

Psalms 45:3. Gird thy sword upon thy thigh, O most mighty, with thy glory and thy majesty.

He loves the fighting Christ - Christ with the sword on his thigh. Oh! but it is sweet to see the Prince of peace - to know that he comes to our heart bearing unspeakably precious blessings; but yet the terrible side of Christ is precious to his saints. They ask him to gird his sword upon his thigh. An armed Christ can only be armed for the defense of his people, and for the deliverance of them from captivity. Therefore, O thou loveliest of the lovely, be the mightiest of the mighty too.
