PSALM 8
Lord, our Lord,
how majestic is your name in all the earth!
You have set your glory
in the heavens.
2 Through the praise of children and infants
you have established a stronghold against your enemies,
to silence the foe and the avenger.
3 When I consider your heavens,
the work of your fingers,
the moon and the stars,
which you have set in place,
4 what is mankind that you are mindful of them,
human beings that you care for them?
5 You have made the a little lower than the angels
and crowned them with glory and honor.
6 You made them rulers over the works of your hands;
you put everything under their feet:
7 all flocks and herds,
and the animals of the wild,
8 the birds in the sky,
and the fish in the sea,
all that swim the paths of the seas.
9 Lord, our Lord,
how majestic is your name in all the earth! (NIV)
After reading Psalm 8 I saw something in a new way. God created us in His image. He created us out of nothing. Only God can create something out of nothing. Just as He created the mountains and the ocean out nothing, just by speaking with His breath He created!! We can create things but we always start with something, something God created. He is the God of all creation. He is also the God of re-creation.
2 Corinthians 5:17 – “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!” (NIV) God recreates His creation! God created us out of the ground which He created out of nothing. We all know what happened in the Garden, sin entered God’s creation resulting in death.
But God. God transforms us. He re-creates His creation making us new again!!! Oh Lord Oh Lord how majestic is your name!!!
