Psalm 8
from Rare but Real · host Audrey Broggi
When I teach Psalm 8 to children, I ask if they have a baby brother or sister. Then I ask if they ever let a newborn baby grab hold of their finger. They all are eager to say yes, yes, yes. Then I ask , “Is it easy or difficult to get your finger out of the grasp of that little newborn baby?” They usually start laughing and say it's so hard. I tell them that even a newborn baby has some strength! But beyond this, it is evident that little children are quick to praise the Lord. They are quick to accept the things of God when they are taught about Him. They grasp the truth of God. They freely will sing praises to Him. And think about it, what better way to hear the praises of God than to hear little children singing their little hearts out? And when Jesus rode the donkey into Jerusalem on that triumphal entry - He healed the blind, He healed the lame in the temple, and there were little children who began to cry out!! (Matthew 21) “From the mouth of infants and nursing babes You have established strength Because of Your adversaries, To make the enemy and the revengeful cease.” This and so much more in today’s podcast.
