Live Thankfully
Ephesians 5:20 “And give thanks for everything to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.”

Course Correct
Psalm 25:4-5 “Show me the right path, O Lord; point out the road for me to follow. Lead me by your truth and teach me, for you are the God who saves me. All day long I put my hope in you”
Every year comes with a freshness, an excitement that is unexplainable. I am sure we are all familiar with the feeling. In fact, there was a time I used to say to myself that it was just an emotional thing. Read the rest of this entry
Remembered!
Genesis 41:9,12-13 “Finally, the king’s chief cup-bearer spoke up. “Today I have been reminded of my failure,” he told Pharaoh… There was a young Hebrew man with us in the prison who …told us what each of our dreams meant. And everything happened just as he had predicted…”

Trust & Wait
Psalms 31:15 “My life, my every moment, my destiny—it’s all in your hands. So I know you can deliver me from those who persecute me relentlessly.” (TPT)

Book of Records
Esther 6:1-2 “That night the king couldn’t sleep. He ordered the record book, the day-by-day journal of events, to be brought and read to him. They came across the story there about the time that Mordecai had exposed the plot of Bigthana and Teresh… to assassinate King Xerxes.” (MSG)

R & R
Nehemiah 13:14 “Remember this good deed, O my God, and do not forget all that I have faithfully done for the Temple of my God and its services.”
Daniel 6:19-20 “Very early the next morning, the king got up and hurried out to the lions’ den. When he got there, he called out in anguish, “Daniel, servant of the living God! Was your God, whom you serve so faithfully, able to rescue you from the lions?” Let Your work be done in such a way that it will resound in Heaven and Heaven will move on your behalf in the Mighty Name of Jesus. Daniel 6:21-22 “Daniel answered, “Long live the king! My God sent his angel to shut the lions’ mouths so that they would not hurt me, for I have been found innocent in his sight. And I have not wronged you, Your Majesty.” Faithfulness is huge, and it is key to remembrance. Read the rest of this entry
Stay Faithful
2 Kings 20:2-3 “Hezekiah turned from Isaiah and faced God, praying: Remember, O God, who I am, what I’ve done! I’ve lived an honest life before you, My heart’s been true and steady, I’ve lived to please you; lived for your approval. And then the tears flowed. Hezekiah wept.” (MSG)
When we look at the story of Hezekiah in 2 Kings 20:2-6 (please read), we see the thread of coming to God and reminding Him. After the Prophet had told Hezekiah to put his house in order because he was surely going to die. The Bible says Hezekiah turned his face to the wall and said to God, “Remember…”.
