A King Who Reigns Forever
Commentators universally see this verse as a prayer for King David's restored reign that also points powerfully to the Messiah, Jesus Christ. While David's throne was temporary, scholars like Gill and Henry explain that Christ truly 'abides before God forever,' reigning eternally at His right hand, fulfilling the promise that 'of his kingdom there shall be no end.'
