Just A Few Of My Thoughts …

“Lord, your name is so great and powerful! People everywhere see your splendor. Your glorious majesty streams from the heavens, filling the earth with the fame of your name! You have built a stronghold by the songs of babies. Strength rises up with the chorus of singing children. This kind of praise has the power to shut Satan’s mouth. Childlike worship will silence the madness of those who oppose you. Look at the splendor of your skies, your creative genius glowing in the heavens. When I Gaze at your moon and your stars, mounted like jewels in their settings, I know you are the fascinating artist who fashioned it all! But when I look up and see such wonder and workmanship above, I have to ask you this question: why would you bother with puny, mortal man or be infatuated with Adam’s sons? Lord, your name is so great and powerful. People everywhere see your majesty! What glory streams from the heavens, filling the earth with the fame of your name!” Psalm 8:1-4,9 TPT

We often sing the praise song, ‘How Great is Our God,’ where we are addressing the Splendor of a King, clothed in Majesty. Let all the earth rejoice when we look at the vast expanse of His creation. God created us a little lower than the angels, therefore, we are considered to be highly valuable because we bear the stamp of the Creator.

In this passage, the Psalmist is describing the majestic splendor found in our Creator filling the earth with the fame of His name. He tells us that we are to have childlike faith, along with childlike worship, so that we can remove any barriers that would hinder our walk with Him. When we look at the splendor found in the creation of your skies, the moon, the stars, and all that surrounds us, we find our blessings continue to grow, as we continue to ask.

Heavenly Father, help us to remember the importance of seeking you in a childlike fashion, as we continue to strengthen our faith, and for this, we are ever so thankful.

In Christ Love
