The author of Psalm 93 is not known. But the author shares with us that God's unchanging and almighty nature reminds us of his great power throughout this world. Jewish tradition claims that the next six psalms, including this one, anticipate some of the works of Messiah.
Psalm 93:5 - "Your statutes stand firm; holiness adorns your house for endless days, O LORD"
The key to God's eternal reign is his holiness. God's glory is seen not only in his strength but in his perfect moral character as well. God will never do anything that is not morally perfect. This reassures us that we can trust him, yet it places a demand on us. Our desire to be holy (dedicated to God and morally clean) is our only suitable response. We must never use unholy means to reach a holy goal because God says, "Be holy because I, the LORD your God, am holy" (Leviticus 19:1,2).
Psalm 93 / New International Version
ReplyDelete1 The Lord reigns, he is robed in majesty;
the Lord is robed in majesty
and is armed with strength.
The world is firmly established;
it cannot be moved.
2 Your throne was established long ago;
you are from all eternity.
3 The seas have lifted up, O Lord,
the seas have lifted up their voice;
the seas have lifted up their pounding waves.
4 Mightier than the thunder of the great waters,
mightier than the breakers of the sea—
the Lord on high is mighty.
5 Your statutes stand firm;
holiness adorns your house
for endless days, O LORD.
