Psalm 8 - Glory revealed

Just try not to smile when you hear a baby laugh. Psalm 8 tells us that the noises of children and infants have the power to silence the foe and avenger. There is hope and innocence still with a child that gives glory to God in a most powerful way. If you want to chase the enemy away make a child laugh today.
1. The greatest name on earth is personalized. "my" Lord. Thank Him for his name and delight in its many facets.
2. What does ordained mean? Why would He ordain praise from children and infants? How can you support this ordained order of praise today? Which children and infants are in your sphere of influence to encourage?
3. Consider the Heavens. Sit out and look at the stars. They are works of his fingers, very detailed and intimate and personal. Every night we can count that every star comes out and is in its place, surely we can trust God for our daily happenings and that He is the God of consistency and order.
4. How do you find this psalm humbling? How do you find it empowering?
5. What does it mean to be made in the image of God?
6. With authority comes responsibility. How are you caring for Gods creation? What is your environmental outlook and personal responsibility?
