Bible Scripture for Wednesday 6 April 2011

"Greetings Everyone in the Name of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ"

Today's Blog Title: "The Glory of the Lord in Creation"
Today's Scripture Reading: Psalm 8:1-9
Today's Key Verse: Genesis 8:3-5  "When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, The moon and the stars , which You have ordained, What is man that You are mindful of him, And the son of man that You visit him? For You have made him a little lower than the angels, And You have crowned him with glory and honor."

Psalm 8 is a psalm of praise with wisdom connections.  In this psalm, it expresses wonder at the majestic and sublime nature of God. The center of this psalm focuses on human beings which is a rarity in Scripture.   But even this focus leads to the praise of God, the Creator of humanity.

This psalm is broken down into 4 points:

(1) A start of praise of God's excellent name (verse 1)
(2) The praise of God from children (verse 2)
(3) The praise of the Creator of humanity (verses 3-8)
(4) An ending in praise to God's excellent name (verse 9)

In view of God's majesty and the vastness of creation, His concern for human beings and gift of dominion over earth's creatures should utterly amaze us.

Today's Hymn: "Jesus Paid It All"

I hear the Savior say, "Thy strength indeed is small;
Child of weakness, watch and pray,
Find in Me thine all in all."
Jesus paid it all, All to Him I owe;
Sin had left a crimson stain, He washed it white as snow
For nothing good have I, Whereby Thy grace to claim
I'll wash my garments white, In the blood of Calv'ry's Lamb
Jesus paid it all, All to him I owe
Sin had left a crimson stain, He washed it white as snow

Heavenly Father, How we are amazed by your Creation and by your love toward us.  Thank you for when we are discouraged and feeling worthless you remind us in your word that we and all other human beings are valuable because You the Almighty God have created us in your own image.
                                                                                                                        Amen

Today's Biblical Truth:  "We serve as God's representatives on earth, with responsibility to care for His creation"

Have a God Filled and Spirit Led Day.  Go in Peace and Serve the Lord with Gladness.  Love God More Today and always remember that when you have a spiritual dilemma in your life and you yell out, "I CAN'T",  God whispers to you, "BUT I CAN".

Yours in Christ,
Cindi
