Psalms 72:11-12

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

Psalms 72:11-12. Yea, all kings shall fall down before him: all nations shall serve him. For he shall deliver the needy when he crieth; the poor also, and him that hath no helper.

The Psalmist seems glad to dwell upon that. It seems to be the joy note in his mind - that the great King - the greatest of all kings - will care for the lowly and the humble. Let us rejoice in this, dear friends. Christ is chosen out of the people and exalted by God; and he is the Christ not only ready to save the highest, but to save the lowest. From his kingdom we may say: -

"None are excluded hence but those

Who do themselves exclude;

Welcome the learned and polite,

The ignorant and rude."
