Psalm 72 paints a breathtaking vision of the King the world longs for—a righteous, peaceful, universal, and compassionate ruler whose justice flows from God himself. This psalm finds its ultimate fulfillment in Jesus Christ, the true Son of David, whose reign brings healing, wholeness, and blessing to all nations. Under Christ's rule, majesty is displayed through mercy, and peace abounds as creation is renewed. Because of Christ, we can look back with thankfulness, look forward with hope, and live now with purpose until the whole earth is filled with His glory.
