INTRODUCTION TO Psalms 103 A Psalm of David. The Targum adds, "spoken in prophecy,'' as doubtless it was, under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. Some think it was written by David, after a fit of illness, and his recovery from it, since he speaks of his diseases being healed, and his youth renewed; for which reason the Syriac interpreter suggests it was written in his old age; for he makes the...

Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things,.... With the good things in the heart of God, with his favour and lovingkindness, as with marrow and fatness; with the good things in the hands of Christ, with the fulness of grace in him, with pardon, righteousness, and salvation by him; with the good things of the Spirit of God, his gifts and graces; and with the provisions of the Lord's house, the...
Matthew Henry
This psalm calls more for devotion than exposition; it is a most excellent psalm of praise, and of general use. The psalmist, I. Stirs up himself and his own soul to praise God (ver. 1, 2) for his favour to him in particular (ver. 3-5), to the church in general, and to all good men, to whom he is, and will be, just, and kind, and constant (ver. 6-18), and for his government of the world, ver. 19....

Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle’s. The mouth of man is very hard to fill. There are some men’s mouths that never will be filled until the sexton gives them a shovelful of earth; for they are covetous and greedy, and always hungry after more; but God has filled thy mouth, not with earth, nor with earth’s treasure, but “with good things”, the...

Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagles. Thou wast down on the ground lately, with all thy feathers shed, but they have grown again, and thou art up on the wing once more. Thy youth has been given back to thee; renew, then, thy praises of thy God; with the dew of thy youth restored to thee, let the dew of thy gratitude also abound. Who would not...
Charles H. Spurgeon
Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle’s. There is an inward satisfaction that God gives to his people. They are not satisfied with themselves, but they are satisfied from themselves, from that “well of water” which springs up within them “unto life eternal.” What a mercy it is to be so satisfied as to get young again, to feel your spiritual youth...
Charles H. Spurgeon
Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle’s. The LORD executeth righteousness and judgment for all that are oppressed. He made known his ways unto Moses, his acts unto the children of Israel. The LORD is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy. He will not always chide. Art thou suffering his chidings just now? They are good for...

Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle’s. This is heavenly feasting on heavenly fare. There is divine satisfaction to be derived from the finished work of the Lord Jesus Christ. O my soul, pray to God to give thee this satisfying food so that thy youth may be renewed, so that thy wing-feathers may grow again, that thou mayest mount as eagles do!...
Charles H. Spurgeon
Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; He might have left thee to pine in spiritual hunger; instead whereof he has fed thee—made thee to know what is good, and to love what is good, and to feed upon that which is good, and to rejoice in that which is good. Will thou not praise him for this? Psa_103:5. So that thy youth is renewed like the eagle’s. Oh! thou art strengthened. Thou growest young...
Charles H. Spurgeon
Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle’s. If you enjoy sweet inward contentment and satisfaction with your God, you must praise him, “who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle’s” With renewed strength, can you, will you, be silent? I am sure you cannot; but you must use all the strength that God hath...

Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle’s. Heavenly feasting on heavenly bread; divine satisfaction from the finished work of Christ.
