Psalms 105 · Grade 4
The Story of a Faithful God
Read and Think
Psalm 105 has no title and names no author. Parts of it also appear in 1 Chronicles 16. It begins with a call to give thanks to Yahweh, sing praises to him, and remember his marvelous works. The psalm then retells Israel's story, showing God's faithfulness at every step.
God remembered his covenant forever: the promise he made with Abraham, his oath to Isaac, and the statute to Jacob, to give them the land of Canaan. While they were few and wandering, God allowed no one to do them wrong. He sent a man before them, Joseph, who was sold for a slave. Yahweh's word proved him true, and the king made him ruler of all his possessions.
Israel came into Egypt and grew strong. God sent Moses and Aaron, who did wonders in the land of Ham. God sent darkness, frogs, flies, hail, and locusts. Then he brought his people out with silver and gold. He spread a cloud for a covering and fire to give light at night. He gave quail and the bread of the sky, and opened the rock so waters gushed out. He did all this because he remembered his holy word to Abraham.
