Welcome to Day 2677 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom Day 2677 – Wisdom Nuggets – Psalm 77:13-20 – Daily Wisdom Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2677 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day 2677 of our Trek. The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. Today’s Wisdom Nugget is titled: The Unseen Path of the Unchanging God - Concluding Our Trek Through Psalm 77:13-20 Today, we reach the powerful and awe-inspiring conclusion of our trek through Psalm 77 in the New Living Translation, encompassing verses 13 through 20. In our last conversation, we plunged into the raw, personal anguish of Asaph, the psalmist. We heard his desperate cries in the night, his sleepless torment, and the agonizing questions that plagued his soul: "Has the Lord abandoned us forever? Will he never again be kind to us? Has his unfailing love vanished forever?" He was a man drowning in doubt, unable to find comfort, even from the thought of God. But then, a pivotal moment occurred: Asaph intentionally shifted his focus, resolving to "recall all you have done, O Lord; I remember your wonderful deeds of long ago." This act of remembering God’s ancient wonders became his lifeline, the first step out of the mire of despair. Now, in these concluding verses, we witness the glorious outcome of that deliberate act of remembrance. Asaph’s perspective completely transforms from anguish and questioning to profound awe and unwavering trust. He no longer asks if God has changed; instead, he declares God’s unchanging holiness, His incomparable power, and His unfailing, sovereign leadership, even when His path is hidden. This is the ultimate resolution of his spiritual crisis, leading to a powerful affirmation of God as the Shepherd-King. So, let’s allow our hearts to be filled with awe as we witness the triumph of faith over doubt, anchored in the undeniable truth of who God is and what He has done. (Reads Psalm 77:13-15 NLT) O God, your ways are holy. Is there any god as great as our God? You are the God who performs miracles; you display your power among the nations. By your strong arm, you redeemed your people, the descendants of Jacob and Joseph. Guthrie Chamberlain: The psalmist begins this section with a triumphant declaration of God’s unparalleled character, a stark contrast to his earlier questions about God’s mercy and love: "O God, your ways are holy. Is there any god as great as our God?" The word "holy" (qadosh) here signifies not just moral purity but also God's separateness, His transcendence, His utterly unique and unapproachable majesty. God’s ways, His actions, His very nature, are completely set apart from all human imperfection and doubt. This is a foundational truth that silences all questioning. The rhetorical question, "Is there any god as great as our God?" echoes the triumphant certainty we saw in Psalm 71, "Who can compare with you, O God?" It's a resounding affirmation of God's incomparability, a direct refutation of any doubt that might have crept into...
