Lift up your heads, O you gates! And be lifted up, you everlasting doors!  And the King of glory shall come in. Who is this King of glory? The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle. Lift up your heads, O you gates!  Lift up, you everlasting doors! And the King of glory shall come in. Who is this King of glory? The LORD of hosts, He is the King of glory.

The Temple gates swinging open, symbolize the people’s desire to have God’s presence among them.

This Psalm is not only a battle cry for the church, but it also looks forward to Christ’s future entry into the new Jerusalem to reign forever. (Revelation 19:11-21).

“And because of Him  you are in Christ Jesus, who became to us wisdom from God, righteousness and sanctification and redemption. so that, as it is written, “Let the one who boasts, boast in the Lord.”

1 Corinthians 1:30-31 ESV

… That makes it quite clear that none of you can get by with blowing your own horn before God. Everything that we have—right thinking and right living, a clean slate and a fresh start—comes from God by way of Jesus Christ. That’s why we have the saying, “If you’re going to blow a horn, blow a trumpet for God.”  MSG
