Description

This Psalm starts out by describing the glory of God in nature. The second half of the Psalm describes in detail the importance of the law of God. It seems like such an odd transition that some people do not see the connection, maybe even wondering if it is two different poems. But they are not. This Psalm is not about nature or the law. It is about God and how He speaks to us.

Verse 1- 6: God Revealed in Nature
Verse 7-13: God Revealed in his Word
Verse 12: God Revealed in Me

The Psalmist Writes: "The heavens declare, the law declares, now may my words and my thoughts also declare the glory of God. But the Psalmist desires not just what he says to glorify God, but also what he thinks about to be pleasing to God.
