"My tongue is the pen of a ready writer"

What does the Psalmist desire to say?

What would you write?

My heart is inditing a good matter: I speak of the things which I have made touching the king: 

my tongue is the pen of a ready writer.

2. Thou art fairer than the children of men: grace is poured into thy lips: therefore God hath blessed thee forever. 

• A sober question to be sure, is "grace poured (from my) lips?"

Next verse indicates that with grace we are to be ready to battle, when necessary. "Gird thy sword..."

3. Gird thy sword upon thy thigh, O most mighty, with thy glory and thy majesty.

4. And in thy majesty ride prosperously because of truth and meekness and righteousness; and thy right hand shall teach thee terrible things.

• When one speaks with "grace, truth, meekness and righteousness," spiritual and sometimes material or physical prosperity follows. 

5. Thine arrows are sharp in the heart of the king's enemies; whereby the people fall under thee. 6 Thy throne, O god, is for ever and ever, the sceptre of Thy kingdom is a right sceptre.

• There is no doubt that wise words are sometimes "sharp" to an enemy. (Heb 4.12)

7 Thou lovest righteousness, and hatest wickedness: therefore God, thy god, hath aointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows. 8 All thy garments smell of myrrh, and aloes, and cassia, (like cinnamon) out of the ivory palaces, whereby they have made thee glad.

• For those that love and practice "righteousness," the heart will be glad and the spiritual fragrance will be pleasant to others.

 9 Kings' daughters were among thy honourable women: upon thy right hand did stand the queen in gold of Ophir. 10 Hearken, O daughter, and consider, and incline thine ear; forget also thine own people, and thy father's house; 11 So shall the king greatly desire thy beauty: for he is thy Lord; and worship thou him. 12 And the daughter of Tyre shall be there with a gift; even the rich among the people shall intreat thy favour. 13 The king's daughter is all glorious within: her clothing is of wrought gold. 14 She shall be brought unto the king in raiment of needlework: the virgins her companions that follow her shall be brought unto thee.

• The descriptions given in verses 9-14 imply that the King's daughter is "honourable" and definitely favored above others.  So, when a believer acknowledges their faith, loyalty and alligience to our Lord Jesus, our worth is "honourable" and highly favored as in Luke 1.28.

15 With gladness and rejoicing shall they be brought: they shall enter into the king's palace. 16 Instead of thy fathers shall be thy children, whom thou mayest make princes in all the earth. 17 I will make thy name to be remembered in all generations: therefore shall the people praise thee forever and ever.

• When the tongue is governed by the Holy Spirit, then that one will be "remembered in all generations...forever."  In other words, what one does and says for the Lord will last.  Great is your reward. (Mt 5.12)

God bless and keep you is my prayer. Ps 57.7
