“I Will
Remember Your Miracles
Of Long Ago”
Then I
thought, “To this I will appeal: the years when the Most High stretched out his
right hand. I will remember the deeds of the Lord; yes, I will remember your miracles of long ago. I will consider all your works and meditate on all
your mighty deeds.”
Your ways, God, are holy. What god is as great as our
God? You are the God who performs miracles;
you display your power among the peoples. With your
mighty arm you redeemed your people, the descendants of Jacob and
Joseph.
The waters saw you, God, the waters saw you and
writhed; the very depths were convulsed. The
clouds poured down water, the heavens resounded with thunder; your
arrows flashed back and forth. Your thunder was heard
in the whirlwind, your lightning lit up the world; the earth trembled
and quaked. Your path led through the sea, your
way through the mighty waters, though your footprints were not seen.
You led your people like a flock by the hand of Moses
and Aaron.
Psalm
77:10-20
Faced with
certain death, either from Pharaoh’s army or by drowning, the Israelites were
near panic. But God parted the
God can
create roads where we see only obstacles. When the way ahead of us seems
uncertain, it’s good to remember what God has done in the past. He specializes
in pathways in any circumstance – pathways that point us to His love and power.
The
God who created a way for our salvation can certainly see us through our daily
trials.
