Day 9 - (Today’s Bible readings: Isaiah 30:8-17; Psalm 8; John 4:46-5:17)
OUR MAJESTIC LORD CARES FOR US
O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!
You have set your glory above the heavens. Out of the mouth of babies and infants, you have established strength because of your foes, to still the enemy and the avenger. When I look at your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set in place, what is man that you are mindful of him, and the son of man that you care for him? Yet you have made him a little lower than the heavenly beings and crowned him with glory and honor. You have given him dominion over the works of your hands; you have put all things under his feet, all sheep and oxen, and also the beasts of the field, the birds of the heavens, and the fish of the sea, whatever passes along the paths of the seas. O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! (Psalm 8 ESV)
It is so overwhelming to know that the Creator remembers us and cares for us. The greatest example of the Lord’s majestic activity in our lives is His mercy and grace showered upon us from the cross. We are redeemed, forgiven and heaven-bound because Jesus came to save us. And that truly gives us great reason to praise His majestic name.

Almighty and majestic Lord of all that is, thank You for saving me from damnation. May I spend the rest of my days praising and sharing Your name in my daily life so that many others may come to worship You too. Amen.
