A Song Of Victory - Psalm 21

Psalm 21 is a song of past and future victory in battle. The battle is won in both the past and the future through the power of God. As the superscription states, Psalm 21 is a psalm of David. David went to battle knowing that God would deliver him. In the first half of this psalm, David prayed for victory, confident that God would answer in the affirmative because of His mercy, grace, and power. In the second half of this psalm, David experiences God’s deliverance but also comes to the realization that God’s deliverance for him also comes with God’s destruction of his enemies.
