Psalm 105 | Part 3: Psalms for Shepherds
Today, we are finishing our time in Psalm 105, a psalm that recalls the demonstration of God’s magnificence!
Let’s read together beginning in verse 26...
26 He sent Moses, his servant, and Aaron, whom he had chosen.
27 They performed his signs among them and miracles in the land of Ham.
28 He sent darkness, and made the land dark; they did not rebel against his words.
29 He turned their waters into blood and caused their fish to die.
30 Their land swarmed with frogs, even in the chambers of their kings.
31 He spoke, and there came swarms of flies, and gnats throughout their country.
32 He gave them hail for rain, and fiery lightning bolts through their land.
33 He struck down their vines and fig trees, and shattered the trees of their country.
34 He spoke, and the locusts came, young locusts without number, which devoured all the vegetation in their land and ate up the fruit of their ground.
36 He struck down all the firstborn in their land, the first fruits of all their strength.
37 Then he brought out Israel with silver and gold, and there was none among his tribes who stumbled.
38 Egypt was glad when they departed, for dread of them had fallen upon it.
39 He spread a cloud for a covering, and fire to give light by night.
40 They asked, and he brought quail, and gave them bread from heaven in abundance.
41 He opened the rock, and water gushed out it flowed through the desert like a river.
42 For he remembered his holy promise, and Abraham, his servant.
43 So he brought his people out with joy, his chosen ones with singing.
44 And he gave them the lands of the nations, and they took possession of the fruit of the peoples' toil,
45 that they might keep his statutes and observe his laws.
As this psalm shows us, we should be committed to influencing and impacting well those the Father has entrusted to our care, not for any return from them or from Him — for that would be manipulation — but for HIS glory. We don’t “pay God back” by keeping His statutes, observing His laws, and praising His name so that He will do more for us. We do it because of our love and devotion to Him. To show gratefulness for how He shepherds us.
We pray this psalm has encouraged you as it has encouraged us. May you live deeply into your calling this week.
