Psalm 77
1. The psalmist shows what fierce combat he had with distrust
10. The victory which he had by consideration of God's great and gracious works.














You are the God who works wonders;
This phrase acknowledges the divine nature of God as one who performs miraculous deeds. Throughout the Bible, God is depicted as a wonder-working deity, from the creation of the world in Genesis to the miracles performed by Jesus in the New Testament. The wonders of God often serve as signs of His power and authority, as seen in the plagues of Egypt (Exodus 7-12) and the parting of the Red Sea (Exodus 14). These acts are not just historical events but are also seen as types of Christ, foreshadowing the ultimate deliverance and salvation brought through Jesus. The wonders of God are a testament to His sovereignty and His ability to intervene in the natural order for the benefit of His people.

You display Your strength among the peoples.
This phrase highlights God's power and His willingness to reveal it to all nations, not just Israel. The display of God's strength is evident in various biblical narratives where His might is shown to both His chosen people and the surrounding nations. For example, the defeat of Goliath by David (1 Samuel 17) and the fall of Jericho (Joshua 6) are instances where God's strength is made manifest. These events serve as a demonstration of God's supremacy over other gods and nations, reinforcing His role as the one true God. In a broader sense, this phrase can be connected to the Great Commission (Matthew 28:19-20), where the message of God's power and salvation is to be shared with all peoples, fulfilling the prophecy of God's kingdom being established among all nations.

Persons / Places / Events
1. Asaph

2. God (Yahweh)
The central figure in this verse, God is depicted as a wonder-working deity who demonstrates His power and might among the nations.

3. The Peoples
This term refers to the various nations and groups outside of Israel who witness God's mighty acts. It emphasizes the universal scope of God's power and influence.

4. Wonders
These are miraculous acts or events that reveal God's power and divine nature. In the context of the Old Testament, wonders often refer to events like the parting of the Red Sea or the plagues in Egypt.

5. Strength

Teaching Points
God's Unchanging Nature
God is consistently portrayed as a wonder-working deity throughout the Bible. His ability to perform miracles is not limited to the past but is an ongoing aspect of His character.

God's Power Among the Nations
God's strength is not confined to Israel but is displayed among all peoples. This reminds us of the universal scope of God's sovereignty and His desire for all nations to recognize His power.

Trust in God's Miraculous Intervention
In times of trouble, believers can find comfort in knowing that God is capable of performing wonders. This encourages us to trust in His ability to intervene in our lives in powerful ways.

Witnessing to God's Power
As believers, we are called to testify to God's mighty works in our lives, sharing our experiences of His power with others to encourage faith and trust in Him.

Reflecting on God's Past Deeds
Reflecting on the wonders God has performed in the past can strengthen our faith and provide hope for the future. It reminds us of His faithfulness and ability to act on our behalf.Verse 14. - Thou art the God that doest wonders. The gods of the heathen could do nothing. They were weakness, vanity, nothingness. Jehovah alone was powerful. He could work, and could "work wonders." This clause prepares the way for the magnificent description of the deliverance of Israel at the Red Sea, which occupies vers. 16-19. Thou hast declared thy strength among the people; rather, among the peoples - i.e. in the sight of many heathen nations (comp. Exodus 15:14-16).
