King of Glory

Psalm 24 is an overlooked chapter because of Psalm 23.  But when I read it this morning, I realized it answered a wonderful question...Who is this King of Glory?  He is the Lord who is strong, mighty, mighty in battle.  He is the Lord Almighty! 

Verses seven and nine are like a chorus, telling us to open up and let God in.  We should open the doors of our hearts, the gates of our being and be ready to do whatever he wants of us.  The battle is long and we sometimes get tired, but we need to stand guard and let the King of Glory in!


7 Lift up your heads, O you gates;
       be lifted up, you ancient doors,
       that the King of glory may come in.
 8 Who is this King of glory?
       The LORD strong and mighty,
       the LORD mighty in battle.
 9 Lift up your heads, O you gates;
       lift them up, you ancient doors,
       that the King of glory may come in.
 10 Who is he, this King of glory?
       The LORD Almighty—
       he is the King of glory.
       Selah
