Earth Day: Celebrating the Glory of God and His Creation

Earth Day—A day to celebrate this planet we live on. To remember that God entrusted the stewardship of earth to us. To recommit ourselves to the care of our home.

And it is a day to see that our God is exalted and praised throughout the creation. All through Scripture, and especially in the Psalms, we see the glory of God in what He has made. Declare His power and majesty and goodness with me.

The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it... Psalm 24:1

The Mighty One, God, the Lord, speaks and summons the earth from the rising of the sun to where it sets. Psalm 50:1

Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; let your glory be over all the earth. Psalm 57:5

The whole earth is filled with awe at your wonders; where morning dawns, where evening fades, you call forth songs of joy. Psalm 65:8

All the earth bows down to you; they sing praise to you, they sing the praises of your name.” Psalm 66:4

Praise be to his glorious name forever; may the whole earth be filled with his glory. Amen and Amen. Psalm 72:19

He is the Maker of heaven and earth, the sea, and everything in them— he remains faithful forever. Psalm 146:6

What about you? How will you celebrate earth day?
