In Psalm 47 we read that:
- the Lord Most High is the great king over all the earth (v2)
- the Lord loves Israel (Jacob) and chose its possession. (v4)
- the Lord subdued nations under Israel. He set peoples under the feet of Israel. (v6)
- all nations are called to clap their hands, in honor to the Lord.
As a Christian, I consider that all these verses are true to Christians because Christians are the people of the Lord. .
The teaching of Jesus were contrary to Rome.
Rome subdued nations by its power. Rome killed many Christians.
How did Christians subdue Rome?
They obeyed the King Jesus when He said to love the enemies and pray for them.
Even when Christians were killed, they praised the Lord. This faith and courage were the seeds to convert many other Romans that were looking the slaughter. The Lord's power is very different from men's power.
In Psalm 47, we see that the Lord set nations under his people.
Praise be to the Lord!
