Crowned with Gold

Old Testament
Psalm 21:3
You have welcomed him with rich blessings and placed a crown of pure gold on his head.
New Testament
Revelation 19:12
On his head are many crowns. He has a name written on him that no one knows but he himself.
Why This Matters
The psalmist celebrated a king crowned with pure gold. Revelation reveals Christ wearing many crowns — sovereign over every kingdom, authority, and power.
Reflection
King Jesus, through Crowned with Gold I see that Your reign has no end. Let Psalm 21:3 and Revelation 19:12 lift my eyes to Your eternal throne.
