Psalms 107 Bible Study Guide

Psalm 107 is a thanksgiving psalm that calls the redeemed of the Lord to give thanks. It presents four pictures of people in distress — wanderers in the desert, prisoners in chains, the sick who draw near to death, and sailors caught in a storm. In each case, they cry to the Lord, and he delivers them. The psalm also describes God's power over nature and his provision for the needy. It ends with a call for the wise to ponder the steadfast love of the Lord.
