Remember the Lord’s Mighty Works (Psalm 105) | Charles Spurgeon

Deep Dive into The Treasury of David by Charles Spurgeon - Psalm 105Charles Spurgeon's exposition of Psalm 105 in "The Treasury of David" explores the song of praise originally composed by King David for the occasion of bringing the ark of the covenant from the house of Obed-edom. The psalm serves as a historical recounting of God's providential care over the nation of Israel and His unwavering faithfulness to His promises.The opening verses issue a joyful call to believers to give thanks, sing praises, and continually converse about God's wondrous works. Spurgeon emphasizes that remembering these divine marvels strengthens faith and kindles deeper gratitude. The psalm then shifts to trace the history of God's chosen people, beginning with the everlasting covenant made with Abraham, renewed with Isaac, and confirmed with Jacob. Even when the patriarchs were a small, wandering family among foreign nations, God offered them absolute protection, warning kings not to touch or harm His anointed prophets.The narrative progresses to the famine that eventually drove Israel into Egypt. Spurgeon highlights how God mysteriously used human wickedness to send Joseph ahead of his family as a pioneer. Though Joseph endured severe trials and imprisonment, the word of the Lord tested and prepared him before he was exalted by Pharaoh to rule over Egypt and preserve his people.Following Israel's rapid multiplication in Goshen, the Egyptians turned to oppressive slavery. In response, God sent Moses and Aaron to deliver His people through a series of miraculous and devastating plagues, including profound darkness, water turned to blood, frogs, lice, hail, locusts, and the death of the firstborn. Israel was ultimately brought out with silver and gold, and miraculously, not one person among their tribes was feeble. Finally, the psalm celebrates God's wilderness provisions, such as the guiding cloud, fire, manna, and water from the smitten rock, culminating in the gift of Canaan so that Israel might faithfully observe God's laws.Reformed Theologian GPT: https://chat.openai.com/g/g-XXwzX1gnv-reformed-theologianYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@ReformedExplainerSpotify Music: https://open.spotify.com/artist/1t5dz4vEgvHqUknYQfwpRI?si=e-tDRFR2Qf6By1sAcMdkdwhttps://buymeacoffee.com/edi2730
