Presentation transcript:

“What is Man that You are Mindful of Him?” God is mindful of us (Psalms 8:4; 40:5; 106:4) He condescends to care so much for us. Our status in creation is ordained by Almighty God.

“What is Man that You are Mindful of Him?” “When I Consider Your Heavens…” God’s glory is above the heavens which He created (Psalm 8:1-4; 19:1) Even so, we do not fully comprehend His greatness (Job 26:7-14; 37:5) By His Word, He is the Creator and Sustainer of all things! (Heb. 11:3; 1:3; Psalm 33:8-9)

“What is Man that You are Mindful of Him?” “You have made him a little lower than the angels” We accept our place in creation because we are in awe of God’s wisdom and power (Rom. 9:20) Becoming “a little lower than the angels” demonstrated both the humility and exaltation of Christ (Heb. 2:9; 1:3-4) For the rest of humanity, it illustrates how special we are to God: Angels are greater than us in power and might, but like us, they are servants (2 Peter 2:11; 2 Thess. 1:7; Psalms 103:20-21; 148:2-5) They serve US on God’s behalf! (Heb. 1:14; Isaiah 63:9)

“What is Man that You are Mindful of Him?” “You have made him a little lower than the angels” God’s love for men can be seen through the activity of angels: In the Old Testament: Hagar (Gen. 16) Elijah (1 Kings 19) Delivering Israel from Bondage in Egypt (Acts 7:35) Giving Israel the Law (Acts 7:53; Gal. 3:19) Guiding Israel to the promised land (Exo. 23:20-23) Raising Gideon to deliver Israel (Judges 6) Delivering Denial (Daniel 6:22)

“What is Man that You are Mindful of Him?” “You have made him a little lower than the angels” God’s love for men can be seen through the activity of angels: In the New Testament: At the annunciation to Mary (Luke 1:26) To the shepherds (Luke 2:9) With Jesus after His temptation (Matt. 4:11) With Jesus in the Garden (Luke 22:43) Guiding God’s servants (Acts 8:26; 12:6-11; 27:23) Revealing God’s will (Rev. 1:1; 21:9-10; 22:8)

“What is Man that You are Mindful of Him?” “You have made him a little lower than the angels” God’s love for men can be seen through the activity of angels: Today: They desire to look into our salvation (1 Peter 1:12) They rejoice when we repent (Luke 15:10 They will gather us to our reward (Matt. 13:41-42; Luke 16:22) They will return with Jesus (1 Thess. 4:16-17; 2 Thess. 1:7-10) They do not directly save men or tell the lost what to do to be saved (Acts 10:3-6; 11:13; 8:26; cf. Romans 10:13-15)

“What is Man that You are Mindful of Him?” “You have made him to have dominion over the works of your hands” God gave man dominion over His creation (Gen. 1:26) Human life is special (Matt. 6:26) We have “spirit” and “eternity” within us (John 4:24; Eccl. 3:11; Job 32:8) We have been put here to come to know God and His nature (Acts 17:26-30) In this way we gain eternal life! (John 17:3)
