Pastor Lowell Nelson teaches about Psalms 109-110: Theology of God's Covenant Love Part 2 on 6/24/2026 for our Wednesday service.
When false accusations, betrayal, and spiritual attacks leave you wounded, Psalms 109 and 110 reveal how God’s covenant love both confronts rebellion and places His Son in complete control.
Sanctified for Saving in Psalm 109
David faces lies, hatred, and evil repaid for his love, yet he refuses to take revenge and instead asks God alone to be the righteous judge. This imprecatory prayer shows that true salvation requires turning from rebellion, not merely requesting forgiveness while clinging to sin. Believers today learn to hand over accusers to the Lord, seek genuine heart change, and trust God to restore those who repent.
The Sovereign Son and Savior in Psalm 110
The Lord invites His Son to sit at His right hand until every enemy becomes a footstool, establishing Him as priest forever in the order of Melchizedek. Jesus Himself quoted this psalm to declare His authority. In seasons of opposition or spiritual warfare, this truth brings mental peace: God remains fully in control, so we can rest in His sovereign plan rather than fear what people say or do.
Final Summary
These psalms call us to release judgment into God’s hands, pursue real repentance that allows His covenant love to sanctify us, and fix our eyes on the risen Son who reigns until every enemy is subdued. Let this message challenge you today: stop fighting battles that belong to the Lord, turn fully from any lingering rebellion, and live in the confidence that Jesus is already seated at the right hand of power.
