Passage: Psalm 107 Speaker: Pastor Will Galkin Series: Standalone Messages
Speaker: Will Galkin - Psalm 107 is a hymn of thanksgiving that celebrates God’s steadfast love and deliverance of His people. It begins with a call to give thanks to the Lord for His goodness and faithfulness, particularly His redeeming work for those in distress. The psalm presents four scenarios where people experience calamity—wandering in the desert, imprisonment in darkness, suffering from sin’s consequences, and being overwhelmed by storms—and highlights God’s response to their cries for help. The Lord delivers them in each case, demonstrating His power, mercy, and covenant love. The psalm concludes by emphasizing God’s sovereignty over creation and human affairs, His humbling the proud and raising up the needy. It calls the wise to reflect on these works of steadfast love and to respond with gratitude and praise for the God who redeems and restores.
