Psalm, Chapter 104

The Lord’s Care over All His Works.

104 Bless the Lord, O my soul!
O Lord my God, You are very great;
You are clothed with splendor and majesty,
2 Covering Yourself with light as with a cloak,
Stretching out heaven like a tent curtain.

  • The title is “The Lord’s Care over All His Works”

o First, please note “The Lord’s Care”

o He does care and He will take care of everything He made

o Second, note that He takes Care over All His works (not just some)

o This means birds, trees, flowers, animals, fishes, everything & everyone!

§ This includes you

§ This includes your family

  • O Lord, my God

o This is a confession of faith but in the context of relationship (my God)

  • You are very great

o God Himself is very great (no one and/or no thing can compare)

  • You are clothed with splendor and majesty

o This goes way beyond mere clothes

o It speaks of His glory, beauty, power, righteousness, awesomeness!

  • Covering Yourself with light as with a cloak

o God wraps Himself in light like putting on a sweater or a jacket

o Imagine being able to bend light into any shape you wanted too

  • Stretching out heaven like a tent curtain

o This means He simply rolls it our so everyone can see it

o He rolling out planets, stars, moons, universes like a ten curtain

3 [a]He lays the beams of His upper chambers in the waters;
[b]He makes the clouds His chariot;
[c]He walks upon the wings of the wind;
4 [d]He makes [e]the winds His messengers,
[f]Flaming fire His ministers.

  • He lays beams of His upper chambers in the waters

o This means God builds His house even in the midst of water

  • He makes the clouds His chariot
