The Book of Psalm is full of verses and passages that relate to the end times. Psalm 97 is a great example of how rich the Book of Psalms is when it comes to Bible prophecy.

Psalm 97 is a picture of the glory and the power of God. He’s greater than anyone, including all the gods.

Psalm 97:1-3, 7: (1) The Lord reigneth; let the earth rejoice; let the multitude of isles be glad thereof. (2) Clouds and darkness are round about him: righteousness and judgment are the habitation of his throne. (3) A fire goeth before him, and burneth up his enemies round about. [...] (7) Confounded be all they that serve graven images, that boast themselves of idols: worship him, all ye gods.

Psalm 97 is also a picture of Christ’s Second Coming. Christ will come when He takes control of the earth and will come to defeat His enemies.

Psalm 97:8-12: (8) Zion heard, and was glad; and the daughters of Judah rejoiced because of thy judgments, O Lord. (9) For thou, Lord, art high above all the earth: thou art exalted far above all gods. (10) Ye that love the Lord, hate evil: he preserveth the souls of his saints; he delivereth them out of the hand of the wicked. (11) Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart. (12) Rejoice in the Lord, ye righteous; and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.

The whole earth will see His glorious coming.

Psalm 97:4-6: (4) His lightnings enlightened the world: the earth saw, and trembled. (5) The hills melted like wax at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth. (6) The heavens declare his righteousness, and all the people see his glory.
