If God ever gave you every reason to tell someone else about Him, would you? It’s kind of a trick question because, in reality, He did already. The Psalmists throughout the ages have been reminding us how much God has done for us and how good He is. The Psalmist in this psalm seems to have had enough and outright says, “Then Speak out!”

I’ve always been intrigued by the way “maturity” sometimes seems to lead to a quieting of the mouth regarding faith more than encouragement to it. Maybe it’s because we are not as willing to say it wrongly (our perspective). Maybe it’s that we feel like we said it all back in our youth. Maybe we’ve lost that lovin’ feeling, and it’s gone gone gone whoa-oh… whatever the case, Psalm 107 is another reminder not to stop saying it, but to “speak out!”  

Notice just in these two verses are the reasons. 1. He is Good. If that’s all it said, it would be enough. But wait, there’s more! 2. His faithful love endures forever! I added the exclamation point for effect. God’s goodness, God’s love … but wait there’s more! 3. Redemption. Mic Drop, BOOM, the original GOAT, JESUS lays it out for us through the Psalmist. Redemption is the third and best part of a reason to speak out! We were dead, and now we’re alive because of the redemptive work of God, which is because of His goodness and His love for us!  

What other reasons do you need? Oh, wait, I know Christians should be seen and not heard…
