Psalm Number 

8

¹  O LORD, our Sovereign; how majestic is your name in all the earth! You have set your glory above the heavens.

(Book of Psalms No. 8 verse 1)

Oh God, my Father, indeed there is no name like Yours. All existence is subject to You and hallowed and worshipped is to be Your Name Amen. 



² Out of the mouths of babes and infants you have founded a bulwark because of your foes, to silence the enemy and the avenger.

(Book of Psalms No. 8 verse 2)

Oh God, my Father You make use of our weakness as a means of defending us against the evil one, who does not stand a chance against You. Moreover, if You had to use our strengths the victory would be even greater Amen. However, You are my strength and my salvation Amen.

³ When I look at your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars that you have established; ⁴ what are human beings that you are mindful of them mortals that you care for them?

(Book of Psalms No. 8 verses 3 to 4)

Oh God my Father why do you love me so much as a human, why do You love humanity. Although we are all sinners You chose to become human to be able to understand our limitations and appreciate the strengths that You have given us. I thank You for everything in the name of humanity Amen.

⁵ Yet you have made them a little lower than God, and crowned them with glory and honor. ⁶ You have given them dominion over the works of your hands; you have put all things under their feet, ⁷ all sheep and oxen, and also the beasts of the field, ⁸ the birds of the air, and the fish of the sea, whatever passes along the paths of the seas. ⁹ O LORD, our Sovereign how majestic is your name in all the earth!

(Book of Psalms No. 8 verses 5 to 9)

Oh God my Father I thank You for sharing Your attributes and qualities with us, You have made us like You in many different and even similar ways. I pray that we appreciate such qualities as gifts from You Amen.



I would like to end this meditation on the eight Psalm with the following prayer:


Brothers and sisters of all nations and relatives in Jesus Christ my God and Father, have heart and be filled with joy even though you may be experiencing tribulations, for the Lord our God is with us, He is our refuge and our salvation. In all circumstances keep in mind that;

                  
                           "You are not alone for the Lord our God is with you"

                                                               Amen.

¹ O LORD my God, in you I take refuge; save me from all my pursuers, and deliver me, ² or like a lion they will tear me apart; they will drag me away, with no one to rescue.

(The Book of Psalms Number 7 verses 1 to 2)

Oh God my beloved Father, I also pray for protection, for I also have enemies who are dying to dig their fangs into me and do me as much damage as possible. I pray that You deliver me from such potent foes and do not permit them to harm me more than they are presently doing Amen.







³ O LORD my God, if I have done this, if there is wrong in my hands, ⁴ if I have repaid my ally with harm or plundered my foe without cause, ⁵ then let the enemy pursue and overtake me, trample my life to the ground, and lay my soul in the dust.




(The Book of Psalms Number 7 verses 3 to 5)




O God my blessed Father, You are the one who is going to do me justice in front of humans, I also pray that if I have cheated anybody throughout the course of this life that You judge me accordingly or as You deem to be fit for me. Amen.




⁶ Rise up, O LORD, in your anger; lift yourself up against the fury of my enemies; awake, O my God; you have appointed a judgment.



(The Book of Psalms Number 7 verse 6)




Oh God my beloved Father, I have not the cheek to tell You to rise up, for You are always wide awake and active in my life. I pray that You are always on my right and left side ready to protect me from those who seek to judge me not to seek justice and righteousness but to satisfy their evil inclinations Amen. 




⁷ Let the assembly of the peoples be gathered around you, and over it take your seat on high.



(The Book of Psalms Number 7 verse 7)




Oh God my Father, if there is a person who can pass judgement it is You and not the people of the earth. I pray that as always You will manifest Your mercy and even Your justice my God and Father, especially on the current issues Amen.




⁸ The LORD judges the peoples; judge me, O LORD, according to my righteousness and according to the integrity that is in me.




(The Book of Psalms Number 7 verse 8)




Oh God my beloved Father, today I had to make a decision on behalf of a client, that I was aware that he is a vulnerable client. On assessing the situation I was aware that I made the right decision. However, there were those who criticised me for the decision that I made even though they were not in my situation at the time. I pray that I be judged on my good intentions and integrity and not on a lack of value judgement or poor assessment Amen.




⁹ O let the evil of the wicked come to an end, but establish the righteous, you who test the minds and hearts O righteous God.




(The Book of Psalms Number 7 verse 9)




Oh God my Father, only You are aware of the evil that is planned against me in my life, especially during this time of separation from my wife. I pray that You sincerely test our hearts and mind and if You find an inch of goodness in me please avenge me in the face of my enemies. I leave my judgement in Your hands my God and Father Amen. 




¹⁰ God is my shield, who saves the upright in heart. God is a righteous judge, and a God who has indignation every day.




(The Book of Psalms Number 7 verse 10)




Oh God my Father this is indeed a great consolation to have You as my shield especially during this time of great tribulation. I present my case before You my God and Father, and may Your justice prevail over the ways of the world. I am aware of my weaknesses and limitations, however, as You know I always do my best. I pray for Your mercy and advocacy when I am in the presence of my enemies Amen. 




¹¹ God is a righteous Judge, and a God who has indignation every day.




(The Book of Psalms Number 7 verse 11) 




Oh God, my Father, You are loving righteous, caring and just. You are justice itself. Unlike the world there are no blemishes or doubts in You my God and Father, it is in You that I place my trust Amen. 



¹² If one does not repent, God will whet his sword; he has bent and strung his bow, ¹³ he has prepared his deadly weapons, making his arrows fiery shafts.



(The Book of Psalms Number 7 verses 12 to 13)





Oh God my blessed Father I am pleased to be one of your arrows planted in Your bow and ready to be fired in any direction of Your desire. I pray that this blog is distributed among many nations and that Your name is praised by all the people of the world Amen. Thank You Jesus.




¹⁴ See how they conceive evil and are pregnant with mischief, and bring forth lies.



(The Book of Psalms Number 7 verse 14)  




The arrows of the evil one breed mischief and more negativity and therefore have an end, however the arrows of God my Father breed positivity and grace Amen.



 ¹⁵ They make a pit, digging it out, and fall into the hole that they have made. ¹⁶ Their mischief returns upon their own heads, and on their own heads their violence descends.




(The Book of Psalms Number 7 verses 15 to 16)




Oh God my beloved Father, those who plan evil for others end up experiencing this same evil themselves, for their lives have become one big lie that due to every lie becomes harder to unwind. They are making a hangman's loop around their own neck Amen.




¹⁷  I will give to the LORD the thanks due to his righteousness and sing praise to the name of the LORD, the Most High.




(The Book of Psalms Number 7 verse 17) 



Oh God my Father, right now the evil spirits are shooting their arrows inside of me. I have an arrow in the nerve going from my neck to my shoulder and I have sticthes in my left hand. However even though it is as if I am being used as a dart board I give praise and worship to You my God and Father.




Blessed be the Name of the Lord my God! as in the following song and prayer credit to TracyJ001

Oh God my beloved Father I would like to end this meditation on Psalm Number 7 with the following prayer:-
 


Oh God my Father, I pray that You make me an instrument of Your peace. An arrow that pierces skin, bone and spirit by which the Holy Word of God may be delivered both online and offline. I pray that You make me one of Your messengers Amen
