Psalms 132:17. There will I make the horn of David to bud:
As a stag’s horn grows, putting out fresh buds and branches, so shall the power of David be increased and enlarged. We see that promise fulfilled spiritually in the growing Kingdom of Christ.
Psalms 132:17. I have ordained a lamp for mine anointed.
His name shall never go out like an extinguished lamp. If it be blown out once, as it were, in the death of Solomon or any other, king, yet from that lamp shall another be lighted. The Lord says, I have ordained a lamp," and Christ will always be a source of brightness in the world; he will ever be "a light to lighten the Gentiles, and the glory of his people Israel." As the holy lamp in the sanctuary was never to go out, so has God ordained that Christ shall ever shine to the joy and delight of his people.
