1 Book of Psalms Psalm 8 Life s Great Questions In its structure this is an envelope psalm. It begins and ends with the same words. This psalm is a call to worship. Every believer s priority in life should be worshiping and giving God the glory He deserves. Life is all about God and not us. In its subject matter this is a creation psalm. Many of the psalms refer to God s power and control in the physical world. In its application this psalm is a messianic psalm. It is quoted in the New Testament in reference to Jesus Christ (Heb. 2:6-9). Psalm 8 deals with two of the most important questions we can ever consider. Question 1 Who is God? This psalm reveals seven ways to describe God: 1) He is the self-existent, eternal, unchangeable God. The name Jehovah means I am. This is the personal, proper name for God. It is found 5,321 times in the Old Testament and translated in the KJV as LORD. The name was considered to be so sacred that it was not pronounced out loud. This is the covenant name for God. It signifies God s personal relationship with His people and nearness to His people. Exodus 3:14 And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you. 2) He is the personal God. He is our Lord, the one who loves and cares for His people. He is personally involved in the lives of people. 3) He is the majestic God. The word excellent (Heb., addir) can be translated glorious, famous, mighty, great, or magnificent. The name Lord (Heb., Adonai) means Master or Lord. This name is found 55 times in Psalms, and is often found in phrases such as Lord of all the earth and Lord of lords. He is the Lord who has all authority, power, and rule. He is not just a national God, but the Lord over all the earth. His name stands for His character and His nature. 4) He is the glorious God. The glory of God is the sum total of all His qualities in all His perfection. God s glory is the visible expression of His character. The heavens declare the glory of God (Ps. 19:1), and yet His glory is far greater than the highest heavens. Creation gives only a glimpse of the Creator s glory. Psalms 113:1-6 1 Praise ye the LORD. Praise, O ye servants of the LORD, praise the name of the LORD. 2 Blessed be the name of the LORD from this time forth and for evermore. 3 From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same the LORD'S name is to be praised. 4 The LORD is high above all nations, and his glory above the heavens. 5 Who is like unto the LORD our God, who dwelleth on high, 6 Who humbleth himself to behold the things that are in heaven, and in the earth! 5) He is the sovereign God. God uses unlikely people and methods to accomplish His purposes (vs. 2). He uses weak instruments to defeat the mighty. 1 Cor. 1:
2 But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; 28 And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are: 29 That no flesh should glory in his presence. God is able to take the weakest people and overturn the mightiest foes. 6) He is the omnipotent God. He has created everything in the universe, all the stars, planets, and galaxies. The whole universe is merely the work of His fingers. The universe is vast, but it is small in comparison to God. Creation was an easy project for God. The Bible describes that God created billions of stars in five short words, Genesis 1:16 He made the stars also. God created them, counts them, and controls them. Isaiah 40:26 Lift up your eyes on high, and behold who hath created these things, that bringeth out their host by number: he calleth them all by names by the greatness of his might, for that he is strong in power; not one faileth. He upholds all things by the word of His power (Heb. 1:3) and by Him all things consist (hold together, Col. 1:17). He is the glue of the galaxies. 7) He is the caring God. He is concerned about us and focuses His attention on us and meets our needs. He is mindful (thinks) of us and visits (gives attention to) us. God didn t create us and then desert us, leaving us to make it on our own. And yet a majority of people want to live independently of God. Question 2 Who is man? This psalm poses the question, What is man that You (God) are mindful of him? Some highly educated people have drawn foolish conclusions about the nature of man. Darwin said man is a highly developed animal. Freud said man is an underdeveloped child. Marx said man in only an economic factor. Plato described man as a featherless biped. Mark Twain apologized for man and said that God made human beings at the end of creation week when He was tired. Of course, all of these statements are absurd. What does Psalm 8 say about mankind? 1) Compared with God, man is weak, mortal, and finite. Two words are used to describe man in verse 4. The first word is the Hebrew word, enosh, which means weak, frail, mortal man. The second word is the Hebrew, adam, which means dust. Man is a weak, frail, mortal pile of dust. Psalms 103:14 For he knoweth our frame; he remembereth that we are dust. 2) Compared to creation, man is tiny and insignificant. We are like ants on a tiny speck in a vast universe. David often looked up to the starry sky at night and he wondered why God would pay attention to man. We need to realize just how small we are. Consider this: If you were on board a rocket traveling 25,000 miles per hour, it would take you 10 hours to get to the moon, 152 days to arrive at the sun, and 114,000 years to reach the nearest star. A few years ago NASA sent a spacecraft to explore our solar system. It took seven years for the spacecraft to reach Saturn. 3) Man is a little lower than the angels. Angels are spirit beings; man is a physical being. Angels are immortal; man is mortal. Angels have incredible power; man is weak and limited. 4) Man is crowned with glory and honor. Although we are small and insignificant in comparison to God s universe, we are the most valuable of all God s creatures. God
3 took a small, insignificant creature and elevated him to an important position. Man is God s crowning achievement. We are made in the image of God, which means we have a moral nature like God. 5) Man is God s appointed ruler on earth. God entrusted man with dominion or control over the animals. We were designed to rule this world for God. Genesis 1:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. It was evident that Adam had dominion over the animals because he gave them names. But something happened. Adam sinned and forfeited his right to rule. Jesus is called the last Adam and through Him, God will eventually restore our dominion. We still live in a sinful, fallen world and our full dominion hasn t been restored yet. A government surveyor brought his instruments and asked permission to enter a farmer s property to take some measurements and conduct some soil tests. The farmer wasn t very happy about it, but the government agent showed him some official papers that gave him the authority to be on his land. As the surveyor went through the gate and started walking across the field, a mean old bull headed toward him. Seeing what was about to happen, the farmer yelled, Show him your credentials. Now it seems like we don t have dominion, but one day we will. The Bible says that we will reign with Christ in His earthly kingdom. Hebrews 2:5-9 5 For unto the angels hath he not put in subjection the world to come, whereof we speak. 6 But one in a certain place testified, saying, What is man, that thou art mindful of him? or the son of man, that thou visitest him? 7 Thou madest him a little lower than the angels; thou crownedst him with glory and honour, and didst set him over the works of thy hands: 8 Thou hast put all things in subjection under his feet. For in that he put all in subjection under him, he left nothing that is not put under him. But now we see not yet all things put under him. 9 But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man. Many years ago, on the campus of Harvard University, Emerson Hall was being built. The architect s plan called for an inscription to be chiseled in marble over the main entrance. After much thought, the professors in the philosophy department decided that the engraving should read, Man is the measure of all things. But the president did not approve of such a man-centered statement. When the professors came back from their summer vacation the building was finished, but these were the words written over the main entrance: What is man that thou art mindful of him? (Psalm 8:4). We need to remember who God is and who we are and we need to keep both in their rightful place. Frail children of dust, and feeble as frail, in Thee do we trust, nor find Thee to fail; Thy mercies how tender, how firm to the end, our Maker, Defender, Redeemer, and Friend. - from the hymn, O Worship the King
