Psalm 97 presents a vivid picture of God’s majesty and power as the reigning King over all the earth. This message explores the awe-inspiring imagery of the Lord’s royal procession—clouds, fire, lightning, trembling mountains—and calls us to consider how creation itself testifies to His glory. The Psalm not only declares that the Lord reigns, but it invites a response: to worship the true and living God, reject idols, and rejoice in His righteous rule.
In this exposition, Pastor Brian examines the terrifying beauty of God’s kingship, the foolishness of idolatry, and the joy that belongs to those who are upright in heart. Drawing comparisons to historical coronations and contemporary misconceptions about God, the sermon challenges believers to respond rightly to the holiness, justice, and supremacy of the Lord.
Whether you are wrestling with idolatry, seeking a deeper understanding of God’s character, or longing to rejoice in Christ’s return, this message reminds us that the King is coming—and in Him, there is every reason to rejoice.
