About God: He is Lord. He is majesty, as well as His Name. He is infinite(v.2)-that is, beyond His own creation. His own glory is separate from our finite world. v.2 It is God who "ordains" praise-we as human beings cannot praise God with thoughts and words that originates within ourselves. He is in control of us and our circumstances as well as our enemies. v.3 There is nothing He has not created. About human beings: We are nothing, we have nothing, we can do nothing except by God's will, His power, His good pleasure-no matter what we think of ourselves and our abilities etc. Everything begins with God. He is attentive to us because He is sovereign God. Nothing we can do can prompt God to consider who we are. About Christ: He is God. vs.1 and vs.9 About our responsibilities: We are to be good stewards of the gift of God's creation (vss. 9-8) but not worship the creation which would be idolatry.
