Asaph in Psalm 77 notes this miraculous work of God. So please turn with me to Psalm 77. We are going to read verses 11 through 14, and I am going to read it out of the New Living Translation.
And Psalm 77, which we read earlier, it actually gives the steps to get back and keep our sense of wonder. It is the steps that Asaph took after his lament, so we are going to break that down.
First, he states that he will remember God's wonderful works. Then he says that they are constantly in his thoughts. From that he equates all of God's ways to holiness, and he determines there is no one mightier. He proclaims that God is the God of great wonders. And he states from that, He is a God who is actively demonstrating His power.
Since Asaph started off by remembering what God has done, the wonders He has done, remembering is our first step. Israel was commanded numerous times to remember - numerous times. We have been given this entire Book (that you may have sitting in your laps) as evidence of God's wonder.
Remembering is an active work that we must do because we tend to forget. Not only should we remember the wondrous works that are in the Book, but what about the works that God has performed in our lives? Hindsight is 20/20, they say. So we should be able to look back and see those wonderful acts of God in our lives.
Remembering leads us to the next step: Keeping these wonders of God constantly in our thoughts as we go about our lives. We meditate on them as the psalmists did. We evaluate them and think on them in our study of His Word. From this we come to the conclusion, God is holy and He is mighty. We begin to understand He is sovereign over His creation. And we see that He is indeed a God of wonders.
The New King James Version translates the first half of verse 14 as, You are the God who does wonders. So in verses 11 through 14, we clearly see this progression from remembering past acts to exclaiming the current active works. Following these steps, we get to a point that we see these workings happening now. These wonders are being done all around us.
