For You meet him with the blessings of GOODNESS; You set a CROWN of pure gold upon his head – Psalm 21:3
The Psalmist declared concerning Man: “For You have made him a little lower than the angels, and You have CROWNED him with GLORY and HONOUR” (Psa. 8:5). Every human being by virtue of creation is crowned with some degree of glory and honour. Sin de-robed Man of glory (Rom.3:23). But by reason of Redemption, we who are in Christ have been restored with crowns of glory and honour. The crown is the icon of Kingship, the totem of Royalty. We were not designed for shame. We are children of the King of kings. Our Father delights to crown us and usher us into His realms of royalty and dominion.
However, not only kings are crowned. God’s grace and favour ordered Esther’s steps into corridors of Royalty until the king “set the royal crown upon her head and made her queen…” (Est.2:17). It is also written about Mordecai that he: “went out from the presence of the king in royal apparel of blue and white, with a GREAT CROWN of GOLD and a garment of fine linen and purple” (Est.8:15). The Son of God received a crown of thorns so that we could receive great and golden crowns of glory, honour, and triumph (Mt.27:29). That’s part of the beauty of redemption.
Only God can crown one irreversibly. Every other crown bestowed by men is transient. Indeed, Satan’s intention is to throw you down into the dust of defeat and cause you to wallow in regret and self-pity like Job: “he has stripped me of my glory, and taken the crown from my head” (Job 19:9). I pray that you will never be stripped of your glory. Your crown will never be profaned or cast to the ground (Psa.89:39). It will never fall from your head (Lam.5:16). God will clothe your enemies with shame, but cause your crown to flourish (Psa.132:18). You will never lose your crown of glory and honour, in Jesus name.
As you walk in the Wisdom of God, she shall deliver a crown of glory to your head – your destiny (Pro.4:9). In addition, God wants to crown your times: “You crown the year with Your GOODNESS, and your paths drip with abundance” (Psa.65:11). He, who crowns the year with His Goodness, will crown your Days with Direction, your Weeks with Wonders, and your Months with Miracles. God will crown your times with His Grace, Goodness, and Glory! Ultimately, we shall receive from the God of Heaven, incorruptible crowns of righteousness, rejoicing, life, and glory (1Cor.9:25; 2Tim.4:8; Jam.1:12; 1Pet.5:4).
