Shalom,
Psalm 8 is so powerful that I want to post the entire Psalm here:
1 O LORD, our Lord, how excellent (majestic and glorious) is Your Name in all the earth! You have set Your glory on [or above] the heavens. 2 Out of the mouths of babes and unweaned infants You have established strength because of Your foes, that you might silence the enemy and the avenger. 3 When I view and consider Your heavens, the works of Your fingers, the moon and the stars, which You have ordained and established, 4 What is man that You are mindful of him, and the son of [earthborn] man that you care for him? 5 Yet you have made him but a little lower than God, and You have crowned him with glory and honor. 6 You have made him to have dominion over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under his feet. 7 All sheep and oxen, yes, and the beasts of the field, 8 The birds of the air, and all the fish of the sea, and whatever passes along the paths of the seas. 9 O LORD, our Lord, how excellent (majestic and glorious) is Your Name in all the earth!
He is THE LORD (Jehovah - the Eternal, Self-existing One!) OUR Lord (sovereign, master, commander), and He is EXCELLENT! The One, True, Most High, Living, Almighty God of the Bible - IS - and their is no other! HALLELUJAH! Verse 5-6 are very accurate in the Amplified Bible above! He made man just a little lower than God Himself, with dominion and authority over all of His creation! Then Adam sinned and made satan his master. Jesus defeated satan and returned authority to all of those who receive HIM (Jesus) as Lord and personal Saviour! That's US! Start operating in the authority that God has given you and take back your life from the enemies influence! AMEN!
Matthew 8:2-3 reveal the TRUTH that God is 100% ABLE, and 100% WILLING, to heal and deliver from all the bondage of the enemy!
2 And behold, a leper came up to Him and, prostrating himself, worshiped Him, saying, Lord, if You are willing, You are able to cleanse me by curing me. 3 And He reached out His hand and touched him, saying, I am willing; be cleansed by being cured. And instantly his leprosy was cured and cleansed.
Jesus is STILL willing AND able to deliver YOU! Here is Hillsong's new song, "God Is Able"
Ecclesiastes is sometimes hard to read because it sounds so negative. Remember that it was written by a backslidden believer! Solomon KNEW the LORD and at one time had made HIM the #1 priority of his life! The Book of Proverbs is filled with the Wisdom of God from one who knew HIM! When he allowed all of the riches and THINGS of the world to become more important to him than God, Ecclesiastes is the result. There ARE some very good Truths to be found here! Look at Ecclesiastes 3:14:
14 I know that whatever God does, it endures forever; nothing can be added to it nor anything taken from it. And God does it so that men will [reverently] fear Him [revere and worship Him,, knowing that He is].
Take Solomon's writings in Ecclesiastes as a warning of the way things could look IF you choose NOT to stay in fellowship with HIM! You REALLY don't want to go there! Life in fellowship with the One, True God is the greatest blessing available to us! Treasure that!
Shalom in Him!
