Meditation Upon the PSALMS Series: Psalm 132

"Psalm 132:
The author of this psalm has realized that belief in God’s promises has formed the basis for the saint’s prayer.

Essentially, this psalm contains the nation’s prayers for David’s royal
descendants which look ahead, even to Messiah.

I. Israel’s First Prayer
(132:1);
II. David’s Vow to God
 132:2-9);
III. Israel’s Second Prayer (132:10);
IV. God’s Vow to David 
(132:11-18).

Psalm 132:1 LORD, remember David, [and] all his afflictions:
Psalm 132:2 How he sware unto the LORD, [and] vowed unto the mighty [God] of Jacob;
Psalm 132:3 Surely I will not come into the tabernacle of my house, nor go up into my bed;
Psalm 132:11 The LORD hath sworn [in] truth unto David; He will not turn from it; Of the fruit of thy body will I set upon thy throne.
Psalm 132:18 His enemies will I clothe with shame: but upon himself shall his crown flourish."
