Sunday Psalms 8

Posted on November 28, 2022 by Marie

Father, Almighty God, Your name is higher than any other. Your glory shines above the heavens. Even babies and children know Your strength and power. You will overcome all that is wrong in this world.

Who am I that You are aware of me? I see Your perfect work everywhere! Why do You even care about me?

The One You love the most (Jesus) is King of all that is, was, or ever will be. You have given Him total control of all creation.

LORD, Your Great, Mighty, Holy name is higher than any other!

So many verses, so little time. Take the time to ponder these verses. Let God in and delight in His Word.

When I look at the night sky and see the work of your fingers—the moon and the stars you set in place—what are mere mortals that you should think about them, human beings that you should care for them? Psalm 8:3–4

The Cat’s Eye Nebula, one of the first planetary nebulae discovered, also has one of the most complex forms known to this kind of nebula. Eleven rings, or shells, of gas make up the Cat’s Eye.

I will walk by faith even when I can not see. 2 Corinthians 5:7

He has made everything beautiful in its time. Ecclesiastes 3:11

Sing psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs among yourselves, making music to the Lord in your heart. Ephesians 5:19

Some trust in chariots, some trust in horses, but we trust in the name of the Lord our God. Psalm 20:7

Psalm 8

Posted on June 28, 2013 by Marie

Let’s look at another of David’s Songs. This one is dedicated to the director of music. That would lead me to think that it was either accompanied by instruments of the time or the words were set to music for use during worship.

This Psalm, gives me great peace when I need to be calmed down. Just knowing that God is in control makes life a little easier.

PSALM 8

O LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! You have set your glory above the heavens.

From the lips of children and infants you have ordained praise because of Your enemies, to silence the foe and the avenger.

When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, the moon and stars, which You have set in place,

What is man that Your are mindful of him, the son of man that you care for him?

You made him a little lower than the heavenly beings and crowned him with glory and honor.

You made him ruler over the works of Your hands; You put everything under his feet;

All flocks and herds, and the beasts of the field, the birds of the air, and the fish of the sea, all that swim the paths of the seas.

O LORD, our Lord, how majestic is Your name in all the earth!

O Lord, mighty, majestic, all-powerful and all-knowing. Hear our prayers and praises. Forgive our pettiness and selfishness. Heal and restore as only You can. Help us all to love as You love. I lift this prayer before the Throne in Jesus’ Precious and Holy name.
