    In Psalm 8 David is pondering the magnificence of God with the

    insignificance of man.

 

    V3. “When I consider the heavens, the work of Your fingers…….”

 

    V4. “What is man that You are mindful of him?”

 

    The sun is the nearest star to earth – 150 million kilometres away. 1.3

    million earths can fit inside the sun. It takes 11,770 earth-sized planets

    side by side to reach the sun. The average distance between the stars in

    the Milky Way is 47.5 trillion km. AMAZING! Gods’ Glory revealed in the

    heavens.

 

    In 2 Peter 3:10-13 the Word declares that the heavens and earth will pass

    away - “Nevertheless We! according to His promise – look for new heavens,

    new earth – in which righteousness dwells”

 

    Everything that God has created in the universe will ultimately become

    insignificant compared to man's redemption. In Hebrews 2:1 “Therefore we

    must give the more earnest heed to the things we have heard lest we drift

    away.” Drifting is slowly moving away from the things of God without

    realizing it! Hope is the anchor to the soul. This will stop us from

    drifting during the storms of life.

 

    V3. “How shall we escape if we neglect so great a salvation?” - Neglect is

    the cause of drifting.

 

    Rev 21:1-4, 22-27 – Reveals Gods heart for humanity. V3 - “God Himself will

    be with them and be their God.” God loves and values us more than the

    vastness of His creation. What value do you put on your salvation and the

    responsibility to walk daily with the living God? This is our ultimate

    destiny.

 

    Have a Blessed week
