Ears they have but they do not hear;

Why
should
the
Gentiles
say,
“So
where is their
God?”
But
our
God is in
heaven;
He
does
whatever
He
pleases.
Their
idols are silver
and
gold,
the
work
of
men’s
hands.
They
have
mouths,
but
they
do
not
speak;
Eyes
they
have,
but
they
do
not
see;
They
have
ears,
but
they
do
not
hear;
Noses
they
have,
but
they
do
not
smell;
They
have
hands,
but
they
do
not
handle;
Feet
they
have,
but
they
do
not
walk;
Nor
do
they
mutter
through
their
throat.
Those
who
make
them
are like them; So is everyone who trusts in them.
This Psalm is Gods' Word to remind us that
“It's All About Him”
Take Note of this “Extreme Warning from God” about the futility of worshiping idols.
9-13
O
Israel,
trust
in
the Lord;
He is their
help
and
their
shield.
O
house
of
Aaron,
trust
in
the Lord;
He is their
help
and
their
shield.
You
who
fear
the Lord,
trust
in
the Lord;
He is their
help
and
their
shield.
The
Lord
has
been
mindful
of us;
He
will
bless
us;
He
will
bless
the
house
of
Israel;
He
will
bless
the
house
of
Aaron.
He
will
bless
those
who
fear
the Lord,
both small and great.
All the help you will ever need, along with Gods' Protection,
is promised for those who trust and fear Him.....
WHICH IS EXPRESSED HERE AS
GUARDING YOURSELF AGAINST IDOLATRY.
We hear a lot about “our inheritance as Gods' children”.
God has given this worship / prayer
TO BUILD OUR FAITH
IT IS FOR US AND OUR CHILDREN, FOREVER !
