The Messianic Psalms serves as a powerful corrective to shallow or misguided views of Christ fostered by nominal Christianity. Thankfully, the Psalms are one of the Scripture's richest repositories of prophecy concerning both Jesus' first and second comings. Drawing on rabbinic and scholarly counts, we learn how many psalms - sometimes through type and antitype, sometimes purely prophetically, anticipating Christ's life, death, resurrection, priesthood, kingship, and final victory. When we distinguish the Messianic Psalms from the Royal Psalms, we learn how figures like David prefigure Christ while ultimately pointing beyond themselves. Detailed treatments of Psalm 16 and Psalm 110 demonstrate how these texts speak with Christ's own voice, foretelling His resurrection, ascension, eternal priesthood after the order of Melchizedek, and the triumphant return as King of kings. The Psalms reveal Christ not as a powerless infant, but the Sovereign Messiah, who calls believers to endure faithfully so that His victory becomes theirs.
