What Does Psalms 77:12 Mean?
'I will meditate also of all thy work' deepens the discipline beyond mere remembering. Meditation involves sustained contemplation—turning the works of God over in the mind, drawing out meaning, allowing them to reshape perspective. Meditating on all God's work means viewing his activity comprehensively, seeking the pattern and purpose that tie individual acts together into a coherent whole.
'and talk of thy doings' signals that the psalmist will voice these reflections. To talk of God's doings means to proclaim them, rehearse them, teach them to others. This speech is not for others' benefit alone but also returns the psalmist to faith as he articulates what God has done. Speaking anchors internal reflection in external reality.
