Psalm 107

Devotional:
Has the Lord redeemed you? Then speak out! Tell others he has redeemed you from your enemies. (Psalm 107:2) 

I praise and thank the Lord because He enjoys hearing the voices of the redeemed. Why is it important that the redeemed give praise and thanks to the Lord? The Psalmist lists quite a few reasons. Look for the repeated pattern of distress, deliverance and thanksgiving. Sometimes people must be brought low before they will turn to God. Yet, when people cry to the Lord from any direction, He delivers them. Only the redeemed have experienced His saving grace and can praise the Lord for it. Even the holy angels cannot thank God for personal salvation. They have not experienced it because they do not need it! The Lord delights in hearing the voices of the ones He has redeemed, so let us praise Him!
Pray it:
Father, I praise you for delivering me from the distress and despair that comes from sin through the death and resurrection of Jesus. Help me to remember to celebrate your saving work in my life and sing the song of the redeemed each day of my life. Amen.
