Connect Psalm 77:15 to another scripture highlighting God's deliverance of Israel. Psalm 77:15—A Snapshot of Redemption “With power You redeemed Your people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah.” (Psalm 77:15) Echoed in Exodus 6:6—God’s Pledge Fulfilled “Therefore tell the Israelites: ‘I am the LORD, and I will bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians; I will deliver you from their bondage and redeem you with an outstretched arm and with mighty acts of judgment.’” (Exodus 6:6) Shared Themes of God’s Deliverance • Same Redeemer—“You redeemed” (Psalm 77) mirrors “I will redeem” (Exodus 6). • Mighty Power—both passages stress His “power” and “outstretched arm.” • Covenant People—the focus is on “the sons of Jacob and Joseph,” the ones God pledged to rescue. • Historical Act—Exodus 6:6 is the promise; Psalm 77:15 is the worshiping reflection after generations saw it come to pass. Psalm 77 Looks Back, Exodus 6 Looks Forward • Exodus is the pledge before the Red Sea crossing (cf. Exodus 14:30). • Psalm 77 recalls that pledge fulfilled, strengthening faith in present trials. Why This Matters Today • God’s past faithfulness anchors present hope (Psalm 105:5). • His redemption is not abstract; it is rooted in real history, giving confidence that every promise in Christ will likewise stand (2 Corinthians 1:20). |
