Psalms 21
1. THE KING [David] shall joy in your strength, O Lord; and in your salvation how greatly shall he rejoice!
2. You have given him his heart's desire and have not withheld the request of his lips.
Selah
[pause, and think of that]!
3. For you send blessings of good things to meet him; You set a crown of pure gold on his head.
4. He asked life of you, and you gave it to him--long life forever and evermore.
5. His glory is great because of your aid; splendor and majesty you bestow upon him.
6. For you make him to be blessed and a blessing forever; you make him exceedingly glad with the joy of your presence.
7. For the King trusts, relies on, and is confident in the Lord, and through the mercy and steadfast love of the most high he will never be moved.
8. Your hand shall find all your enemies; your right hand shall find all those who hate you.
9. You make them as if in a blazing oven in the time of your anger; the Lord will swallow them up in his wrath, and the fire will utterly consume them.
10. Their off spring you will destroy from the earth, and their sons form among the children of men.
11. For they planned evil against you: they conceived a mischievous plot which they are not able to perform.
12. For you will make them turn their backs;
You will aim your bow [of divine justice] at their faces.
13. Be exalted Lord in your strength; we will sing and praise your power.
This passage is a reminder of God's Love.
He uses all things (together) to lead us to life.
We are the rulers of our world.
Our life is what we make it.
David calls his laws a delight.
Life is found in his word.
It is health and wealth to our flesh!
The way of the wicked is death and destruction.
Lets be creative....
Fill in the blank (an action word) or something we extend to others.
Blessed are the merciful for they shall be shown mercy
Blessed are the forgiving for they shall be forgiven
(Similar to forgive us our debts as we forgive others)
Give and it will be given unto us.
Blessed are the pure in heart for they shall see God
Whatever we do comes back to us.
More verbs to fill in the blank.

We get what we put in.....
