Verses 1-6 proclaim the Glory of God - even the heavens declare his glory! The common thread between the first verses and verses 7-13 is God's perfection and magnificance. The psalmist sees Gods law as perfest, trustworthy, enduring forever. Citing its virtues, the psalmist declares his value of God's laws, his joy in following His Word. The more I study God's Word, the more amazed I am! God thought of everything! And had the prophets write it all out for us! We jsut have to obey! How simple!?! The psalmists wonder in God's creation overwhelms him. In verse 14, the psalmist asks God to be pleased by his words and actions.

Psalm 8 teaches that God is omnipotent, creator of the heavens and earth - all things. It teaches that God, despite his majesty concerns himself with humans. Our responsibilities as God-made beings are to rule over beasts, birds and fish.

Hi! My name is Jean and I live in Central New York. I grew up Catholic, went to a Baptist church for a few years but now attend a Lutheran church. I am excited about this online bible study! It's something new for me - I think it'll be interesting...what a blessing to be able to learn about the Bible in my home during the week! Great!
