I see 13 requests that Solomon makes for himself. His leadership would result in: Justice Prosperity Deliverance for the poor and needy Glory to God Blessing Righteousness and peace World-wide kingdom His long life Nations bringing him tribute because of his majesty Him being loved and blessed Abundance An enduring legacy The fulfillment of the call to Abraham — all nations blessed. Because of the exalted nature of the petitions, some commentators say this Psalm is Messianic -- pointing to Jesus alone as the unique King that can fulfill these things. Though I agree that Jesus alone is the complete fulfillment, isn't it something that Solomon prayed these not for a future king, but for himself. Either he was a total egomaniac, or he understood something of God's purposes for His people. How I long that my leadership would lead to Jesus' purpose to fill the earth with His glorious reign.
