The LORD said to my Lord, "Sit at My right hand, till I make Your enemies Your footstool.” (v.1)
Psalm 110 is a beautiful Psalm of David describing the rule of Christ as He sits at the right hand of God. Here in our text David records that God (Yahweh) said unto his (David's) Lord (Jesus Christ), "Sit at My right hand, till I make Your enemies My footstool.” Obviously this has not happened completely yet, but it will. Yes Jesus sits currently at the right hand of the Father, but the enemies of Christ are not currently under His feet.
Scripture tells us in Revelation that God will come to judge the earth, and put down all the enemies of Jesus Christ, bring all things in subjection unto Him. And when the great tribulation is over, the nations will have been defeated bring them unto the subjection of Jesus Christ as promised here in our text - making Him King of kings and Lord of lords.
The Truth: "Then I saw heaven opened and here came a white horse! The one riding it was called “Faithful” and “True,” and with justice he judges and goes to war. His eyes are like a fiery flame and there are many diadem crowns on his head. He has a name written that no one knows except himself. He is dressed in clothing dipped in blood, and he is called the Word of God. The armies that are in heaven, dressed in white, clean, fine linen, were following him on white horses. From his mouth extends a sharp sword, so that with it he can strike the nations. He will rule them with an iron rod, and He stomps the winepress of the furious wrath of God, the All-Powerful. He has a name written on his clothing and on his thigh: “King of kings and Lord of lords.” (Revelation 19:11-16)
