Now look what the Bible says in Psalm 8 verse 4. It says, "What are mortals that you should think of us, mere humans, that you should care for us? For you made us only a little lower than God, and you crown us with glory and honor.
You put us in charge of every things you make, giving us authority over all things, the sheep and the cattle and all the wild animals.
the birds in the sky, the fish in the sea, and everything that swims the oceans current. I just want to draw our attention to some certain reality in this particular scripture.
I want to let us know that there are much responsibility that which God has in us. I've never seen a parent that give birth,with their children and don't take responsibility. That means such parents, they don't know what their responsibility. But it is the responsibility of parents to take care of their children. And it's the responsibility of the children to obey and to also respect their parents as well. Just as Ephesians 6 says,
But I also want to draw our attention about God's responsibility. Because from the scripture we read, the Bible draw our attention in this Psalm 8. They began to ask the question, they said, what is man that you are so mindful of him? The first thing I just want to establish about God's kind of responsibility, obligation towards us, his children, is that he is very heavy and he is very strong.
So, our Heavenly Father, God has taken almost unbearable responsibility towards us, His children. Now, from this particular scripture that we just read, we discovered in some age, the Bible says, What is man that you are so mindful of him? The son of man that you cares for him. Now, I want to let us know that God cares for you.
The value that God has placed in humanity is very high that God can do anything to see that you are covered.
God can do anything to see that you are protected. God can do anything to see that you are preserved. God can do anything to see that you are guided well. And God can do anything to see that you bring you to the place of divine comfort and rest. God can do anything to see that you are disciplined, where you can be able to take responsibility and He can entrust you with some certain responsibility.
So the value that God has placed in humanity is very high and God can do anything to make, to provide your daily bread. That is why in the book of Matthew it says, When the disciples were asking the Father, He said, "Teach us how to pray." He said, "Our Father who art where?" "In heaven." He said, "Hallowed be thy name." He said, "Thy kingdom come, thy will be done." Where? "On earth as it is in heaven .
And he said, give us this day our daily bread. It is the responsibility of the father to cater for his children. One of the responsibilities, if your father is irresponsible, that they don't care how their children feels, they don't care how their wives feels. But you see, we have a heavenly father that cares for us.
And the value that which God has placed in us is very high.
