Magnificent Reputation
Psalm 8:1 – O Lord, our Lord, how magnificent is your reputation throughout the earth! You reveal your majesty in the heavens above! 2 – From the mouths of children and nursing babies you have ordained praise on account of your adversaries, so that you might put an end to the vindictive enemy.
Verse 3 – When I look up at the heavens, which your fingers made, and see the moon and the stars, which you set in place, 4 – Of what importance is the human race, that you should notice them? Of what importance is mankind, that you should pay attention to them, 5 – and make them a little less than the heavenly beings? You grant mankind honor and majesty; 6 – you appoint them to rule over your creation; you have placed everything under their authority, 7 – including all the sheep and cattle, as well as the wild animals, 8 – the birds in the sky, the fish in the sea and everything that moves through the currents of the seas.
verse 9 – O LORD, our Lord, how magnficient is your reputation throughout the earth!
Does it seem as though parts of the earth have missed putting this Psalm in their playlist? Is the Lord’s reputation magnificent to you? Are our opinions of the moon, stars and all creation our own or have we been told what to think?
Let’s take the time to pay attention to what the Lord Jesus has done in creation and at the cross. There is no other like Him. Truly His reputation is magnficent. May His divine magnficence reach our hearts as we worship Him today!
Have a beautiful Sabbath!
