Psalms 106:22
“Wondrous works in the land of Ham, and awesome things by the Red Sea.”
What does Psalms 106:22 mean?
This verse celebrates God's remarkable rescue of Israel during the exodus from Egypt, when the people witnessed miracles in the land of Egypt (called "Ham" here, referring to Egypt's ancient name) and at the Red Sea. The psalmist is reminding readers that God didn't just save people once in a quiet way, but did it with such dramatic, undeniable power that anyone watching would have to recognize God's hand at work. When life feels overwhelming or when you wonder if God still acts in the world, this verse points to a God who has a history of showing up in ways that transform circumstances and hearts. It's meant to build confidence that the same God who did these great things is still present and powerful today.
