The Psalms of David: His Prophesies

Leave a comment

David was much more than just a King. He was a Prophet. He had the gift of revelation too and did speak often concerning the future and especially of Jesus Christ his descendant by birth. Here are some Prophetic Psalms of his:

Psalm 22 – Prophesy about the Agony of Christ

In this Psalm, David made a projection about Christ’s situation during his time on earth. This was hundreds of years before his birth. He may have spoken of him like one who the Spirit of God arrested at the time he wrote the Psalm. Jesus would cry out with the exact words as David did in verse 1 of Psalm 22.

Psalm 16 – Prophesy about Christ’s Resurrection

In this Psalm, David prayed a prophetic prayer about the resurrection of Christ. The Holy Spirit opened his eyes to what would eventually be the fate of the Savior, with an assurance that God will never leave his beloved to rot in the grave.

In Psalms 2 & 110 David spoke more concerning Christ Jesus especially his agony before and while on the cross. Within David’s Psalm especially those chapters authored by him lies words of prophesies that even today continues to speak into our lives and situations.

The Psalms of David: His Teachings..

Leave a comment

Towards the end of his time on earth, King David called his son Solomon aside and gave him one of the greatest lecture a Father could give his Son. This was divinely preserved for a time like this and can be found in 1 Kings 2. But this was only one out of the many number of times he had to put this special gift into use. Indeed King David was a great teacher.

David was as well generous enough to leave behind notes of his teachings and prayers which today we call The Psalms of David.


In today’s episode let us look at some of his teachings as recorded in The Psalms.
Psalm 1 – Teaching on Consistent Loyalty to God
Here he reminds the reader that there is a special reward that comes with obedience and righteousness. Constantly studying the word of God pays off.

Psalm 14 – Teaching on God’s Supremacy

It is foolishness to question God’s existence. God dwells on high from where he judges all things.
In this Chapter like in some others, David reiterates the goodness of God


Psalm 15 – Teaching on God’s Benevolence

The Psalmist here describes God as one who lends his money without usury and does not accept a bribe against the innocent.God keeps his oath even though he doesn’t have to.

Psalm 91 – Teaching on God’s Divine Protection

The Psalmist here describes God as a reliable defender and protector of those who run to and into him. David for one enjoyed this benefit so spoke out of experience. This is promise towards every one that run to him.
