Let the Redeemed of
the Lord Say So — Page 5
Sermon on Psalm 107
Look again at Stanza 1. Who of you, that are prone to wander, have ever been wandering in the dry spiritual desert away from the fold of God? Isaiah tells us that “All of us like sheep have Wandered and turned to our own wicked ways.” Romans tells us that “All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God.” But who here can say that in that wandering, you have called out to the Lord, and He has redeemed you. Who here can say, “the LORD has caused my iniquity To fall on Him”? And who here can say, “I am being justified freely by His grace through the redemption which is in Christ Jesus”? And who can sing with the Hymn-writer, “Amazing grace, how sweet the sound, that saved a wretch like me. I once was lost, but now I’m found!” and now you can drink of that water of life, and eat of the bread of life freely!
LET THE REDEEMED OF THE LORD SAY SO!
And what about from the West? Who here can say that they have at some point rejected the counsel of the All Mighty, and as a result have been in darkness and in the snare of the devil, having been held captive by him to do his will? You were “fast bound in sin and nature’s night.” But who here can also say that the Lord brought you to your senses and delivered you from that misery, for “the Son of God appeared to destroy the works of the devil!” Jesus Christ has been appointed to be “a light to the nations, to open blind eyes, to bring out prisoners from the dungeon and those who dwell in darkness from the prison.” We look forward to the day when Satan, the “Prince of Darkness” will be cast into the pathless waste forever, but still, Who can say even now, my dungeon flamed with light, and “My chains fell off, my heart was free!” Who can say, “I once was blind, but now I see!”
LET THE REDEEMED OF THE LORD SAY SO WHOM HE HAS REDEEMED FROM THE HAND OF THE ENEMY!
