Psalm 8: How Majestic is Your Name

"O LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! You set your glory above the heavens. Out of the mouth of babies and infants, you have established strength because of your foes, to still the enemy and the avenger. When I look at the heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set in place, what is man that you are mindful of him, and the son of man that you care for him?...O LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!" Psalm 8:1-4, 9

How majestic is the Lord!!! He is the all-powerful creator of all things! Go outside on a clear night and look up at the stars, and that alone will bring you to amazement! Our most far-reaching telescope can't bring into visibility even half of the universe! The stars are uncountable! Planets very close to us, in comparison to the universe, are unreachable! God is so powerful it is indescribable! His power is limitless, but His love is everlasting!!! PRAISE GOD! I can imagine David going out at night when he wrote this Psalm. Going out and looking up into the stars and praising God through song by saying, "O LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name!" How amazing and majestic is our God! Praise Him with your life today and forever more!

  2. Micah,

    WOW! Great verse and thoughts! this reminded me of the time we went to the creation museum and watched that video on the stars and planets. It left me completely speechless! I could have watched the video over and over again and never tired of it! And the sky is just ONE of God's amazing creations. He is so amazing and we take it for granted so many times!!! We truly do serve a mighty and glourious God!!!

    Great post!
