Psa 110:7 | MHM | STEP | v. 7 : He shall drink of the brook in the way: therefore shall he lift up the head (Psalms 110:7 ). This verse shows both the suffering and the victory of Christ. To “drink of the brook in the way” means to experience hardship and humbling, like when Jesus drank the “bitter cup” of suffering and death (John 18:1; John 19:30 ). But because He submitted to this suffering, He is now exalted—He “lifts up His head.” Jesus rose from the dead and triumphed as a conqueror. His exaltation is the reward for His humility, and all His followers who suffer with Him will also share in His victory (Philippians 2:9; Colossians 2:15 ).

v. 7: He shall drink of the brook in the way: therefore shall he lift up the head (Psalms 110:7 ^a). This verse shows both the suffering and the victory of Christ. To “drink of the brook in the way” means to experience hardship and humbling, like when Jesus drank the “bitter cup” of suffering and death (John 18:1; John 19:30 ^b). But because He submitted to this suffering, He is now exalted—He “lifts up His head.” Jesus rose from the dead and triumphed as a conqueror. His exaltation is the reward for His humility, and all His followers who suffer with Him will also share in His victory (Philippians 2:9; Colossians 2:15 ^c).
