Inditing
The word inditing is not a word we use much today, but it simply means to “write or compose…to give literary or formal expression to.”
The inspired writer of Psalm 45 did this when he said, “My heart is inditing a good matter” (verse 1). Going on, he gives a wonderful account describing the Lord in His glory and majesty. Here we will quote just part of the narrative and I encourage you to open your Bible and read the rest. I am confident that a prayerful, meditative read of this psalm will swell your heart with praise and worship.
“I speak of the things which I have made touching the King: my tongue is the pen of a ready writer. Thou art fairer than the children of men: grace is poured into Thy lips: therefore God hath blessed Thee for ever. Gird Thy sword upon Thy thigh, O most mighty, with Thy glory and Thy majesty. And in Thy majesty ride prosperously because of truth and meekness and righteousness; and Thy right hand shall teach Thee terrible things. Thine arrows are sharp in the heart of the king’s enemies; whereby the people fall under Thee. Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: the sceptre of Thy kingdom is a right sceptre” (Psalm 45:1-6).
