Remember His Marvellous Works

November 3, 2026 · Pastor Jerry A. Burns

“Remember his marvellous works that he hath done; his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth;” Psalm 105:5

Psalm 105 opens with a string of commands, and most of them are about our mouths. "O give thanks unto the LORD; call upon his name: make known his deeds among the people. Sing unto him, sing psalms unto him: talk ye of all his wondrous works."

Give thanks, call, make known, sing, talk. God's goodness was never meant to be kept to ourselves. When He does something for us, the psalmist says, we are to tell somebody. I have to confess I am quicker to tell people my troubles than my blessings.

But first we have to remember. "Remember his marvellous works that he hath done; his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth." The rest of the psalm is a long list of what God did for Abraham, Joseph, Moses and Israel. The writer remembered, and then he talked. The order matters. When I stop remembering, I stop talking.

Here is the reason he could trust God for tomorrow: "He hath remembered his covenant for ever, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations." We are told to remember His works because He has never forgotten His promise.

I am thankful that my memory of God's goodness is not the only thing holding me up. His memory of His covenant is.

When was the last time you talked about what the Lord has done for you? Remember it today, and then make it known.
