Psalms Chapter 8 - Reflection on God's Greatness and Man's Position Personal reflection on the overwhelming nature of God's faithfulness and the desire to express gratitude. Feeling inadequate to fully praise God. Acknowledging God's personal visits and interactions. God's Name Above All Names Emphasis on the unparalleled greatness of Jesus' name. A name above every name, at which every knee shall bow. The only name through which salvation is possible. The Psalmist's Overwhelmed Praise The psalmist's attempt to praise God for His deeds and experiences. Desire to testify about the Lord and His goodness. Recognizing God's glory is above all earthly things. God's Glory Above the Heavens God's glory is set above the heavens, emphasizing His transcendence. God created the earth and all that exists. The creation is not God, but a product of His power. God is not dead or mute but real and able to do all things. Even with advanced technology, the end of the cosmos cannot be seen. God loves and sustains individuals. Strength Ordained from Babes and Sucklings God uses the least among us to demonstrate His strength. Reference to David's victory over Goliath as an example. David's recollection of God's past interventions (lion and bear). God can do great things through those who seem insignificant. David and Goliath David's preparation to fight Goliath. David's father sending him to check on his brothers at battle. David's youth and lack of traditional armor. David's faith in God's protection based on past experiences. Saul's initial disbelief in David's ability to fight Goliath. David's reliance on his sling and staff, tools he was familiar with. Confrontation in the Valley David's encounter with Goliath. Goliath's mockery and cursing. David's declaration of coming in the name of the Lord. The battle belongs to God. God can take the least and slay the greatest. Victory Through God's Name David's victory over Goliath through faith in God. One smooth stone was enough to defeat the giant. Encouragement to believe in God's power to conquer any challenge. If God is for us, who can be against us? David running towards Goliath. David using Goliath's sword to cut off his head. Considering the Heavens Reflection on the vastness of the heavens and God's creation. Feeling small when considering the cosmos. Questioning man's significance in light of God's creation. Contemplation and meditation on God's wonders. Everything was created by God, not by accident. Man's Status: A Little Lower Than Angels Man is made a little lower than the angels but crowned with glory and honor. Clarification that humans do not become angels after death. God chose to socialize with humans despite having angels. Crowned with glory (the Holy Spirit). Angels do not have the Holy Spirit. Crowned with Glory and Honor The glory of the Lord is His presence. The Holy Ghost filled the soul. Wear the crown of glory that God has given. The glory of God in the Old Testament was always His presence. If you don't have the presence of God, you aren't one of His. If any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. Crowned with honor. Not the honor of men or the world. Called the sons of God. Adopted and given His name. An heir to God and a joint heir with Christ. Given a new name. God gave His only begotten Son. Made in His image. Dominion Over Creation Man is given dominion over all of God's creation. Sheep, oxen, beasts of the field, fowls of the air, fish of the sea. Responsibility to be good stewards of what has been entrusted. Death as a Shadow Death is merely a shadow for those crowned with glory and honor. The Holy Spirit's glory gets us through death.

Psa 18:31  For who is God, but the LORD? And who is a rock, except our God,

Psa 18:8  Smoke went up out of His nostrils, And fire from His mouth devoured; Coals were kindled by it.Psa 18:9  He bowed the heavens also, and came down With thick darkness under His feet.Psa 18:10  He rode upon a cherub and flew; And He sped upon the wings of the wind.Psa 18:11  He made darkness His hiding place, His canopy around Him, Darkness of waters, thick clouds of the skies.Psa 18:12  From the brightness before Him passed His thick clouds, Hailstones and coals of fire.Psa 18:13  The LORD also thundered in the heavens, And the Most High uttered His voice, Hailstones and coals of fire.Psa 18:14  He sent out His arrows, and scattered them, And lightning flashes in abundance, and routed them.Psa 18:15  Then the channels of water appeared, And the foundations of the world were laid bare At Your rebuke, O LORD, At the blast of the breath of Your nostrils.Psa 18:16  He sent from on high, He took me; He drew me out of many waters.Psa 18:17  He delivered me from my strong enemy, And from those who hated me, for they were too mighty for me.

Psa 18:1  For the choir director. A Psalm of David the servant of the LORD, who spoke to the LORD the words of this song in the day that the LORD delivered him from the hand of all his enemies and from the hand of Saul. And he said, "I love You, O LORD, my strength."Psa 18:2  The LORD is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer, My God, my rock, in whom I take refuge; My shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.Psa 18:3  I call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised, And I am saved from my enemies.

Psa 17:14  From men with Your hand, O LORD, From men of the world, whose portion is in this life, And whose belly You fill with Your treasure; They are satisfied with children, And leave their abundance to their babes.Psa 17:15  As for me, I shall behold Your face in righteousness; I will be satisfied with Your likeness when I awake.

Psa 17:11  They have now surrounded us in our steps; They set their eyes to cast us down to the ground.Psa 17:12  He is like a lion that is eager to tear, And as a young lion lurking in hiding places.Psa 17:13  Arise, O LORD, confront him, bring him low; Deliver my soul from the wicked with Your sword,

Psa 16:2 I said to the LORD, "You are my Lord; I have no good besides You."

Who Shall Dwell on Your Holy Hill?Psa 15:1  A Psalm of David. O LORD, who may abide in Your tent? Who may dwell on Your holy hill?Psa 15:2  He who walks with integrity, and works righteousness, And speaks truth in his heart.Psa 15:3  He does not slander with his tongue, Nor does evil to his neighbor, Nor takes up a reproach against his friend;Psa 15:4  In whose eyes a reprobate is despised, But who honors those who fear the LORD; He swears to his own hurt and does not change;Psa 15:5  He does not put out his money at interest, Nor does he take a bribe against the innocent. He who does these things will never be shaken.

Psa 14:7  Oh, that the salvation of Israel would come out of Zion! When the LORD restores His captive people, Jacob will rejoice, Israel will be glad.

Psa 14:6  You would put to shame the counsel of the afflicted, But the LORD is his refuge.

Psa 14:4  Do all the workers of wickedness not know, Who eat up my people as they eat bread, And do not call upon the Lord?Psa 14:5  There they are in great dread, For God is with the righteous generation.

Psa 14:2  The LORD has looked down from heaven upon the sons of men To see if there are any who understand, Who seek after God.Psa 14:3  They have all turned aside, together they have become corrupt; There is no one who does good, not even one.

Psa 14:2  The LORD has looked down from heaven upon the sons of men To see if there are any who understand, Who seek after God.Psa 14:3  They have all turned aside, together they have become corrupt; There is no one who does good, not even one.

Psa 14:1  For the choir director. A Psalm of David. The fool has said in his heart, "There is no God." They are corrupt, they have committed abominable deeds; There is no one who does good.

Psa 13:2  How long shall I take counsel in my soul, Having sorrow in my heart all the day? How long will my enemy be exalted over me?

Psa 12:7  You, O LORD, will keep them; You will preserve him from this generation forever.Psa 12:8  The wicked strut about on every side When vileness is exalted among the sons of men.

Psa 12:6  The words of the LORD are pure words; As silver tried in a furnace on the earth, refined seven times.

Psa 12:4  Who have said, "With our tongue we will prevail; Our lips are our own; who is lord over us?"Psa 12:5  "Because of the devastation of the afflicted, because of the groaning of the needy, Now I will arise," says the LORD; "I will set him in the safety for which he longs."

Psa 12:1  For the choir director; upon an eight-stringed lyre. A Psalm of David. Help, LORD, for the godly man ceases to be, For the faithful disappear from among the sons of men.Psa 12:2  They speak falsehood to one another; With flattering lips and with a double heart they speak.Psa 12:3  May the LORD cut off all flattering lips, The tongue that speaks great things;

Psa 13:1  For the choir director. A Psalm of David. How long, O LORD? Will You forget me forever? How long will You hide Your face from me?

Psa 11:5  The LORD tests the righteous and the wicked, And the one who loves violence His soul hates.Psa 11:6  Upon the wicked He will rain snares; Fire and brimstone and burning wind will be the portion of their cup.Psa 11:7  For the LORD is righteous, He loves righteousness; The upright will behold His face.
