Simply Remember!
Have you ever gone through something that just seemed so horrific that it felt as though you weren’t going to make it this time! Well, I have, more times than I can count! Maybe you are still going through something like that. Today, I hope to encourage you by pointing out the fact that you are still breathing in and out! It’s never too late for God to come riding in like the Savior that He is and save the day! I’ve made it through many trials by knowing God’s faithfulness. My husband and I are living proof of the miracle-working power of the Lord. However, sometimes we forget what the Lord has done for us, especially when the thing we are facing seems impossible or way too difficult to walk through. I want to encourage you, if we are making it, so can you. You too can get to the other side! Sometimes, the easiest, but most effective thing we can do to begin seeing victory in our lives is to simply remember!
Our Pastor preached a message awhile back that really helped me and stirred my heart, as I was going through a devastating time in my life. The message was basically this: “Miracles erase options for the believer!” What he preached on was the fact that once the Lord performs a miracle in your life, that it is something that is concreted into your spirit. You are never the same, and hopefully as Pastor preached “You will remember!” You will remember the miracle when the next trail comes or the next obstacle comes, because if the Lord did it once for you, he’ll do it again….Always! That settles it! There is no changing in God. God is the same yesterday, today and forever. What he has done, he will do again…
Recently, I thought that I would begin writing down all of the miracles that the Lord had performed for me. Honestly, I became so overwhelmed. He had done so much that I had not even thanked him for or realized it was him! It is our nature sometimes to forget, but as I began thinking back of all of the times when the Lord came through for us, I suddenly realized, if he did anything for me before, He is the same God! He will do it for me again just as he had done it over and over again in the past! So, I want to encourage you today, right now! Take the time to REMEMBER what the Lord has already done for you. You know all of those good things that happened before that we sometimes call coincidence! Realize that those good things were not coincidences but God was working on your behalf. Oh what a faith builder it is to take the time to simply remember! It could be the very thing you need that will thrust you forward like a catapult and land you right into the miracle that you are believing the Lord for right now.
This is just what I needed to hear today. Been under attack, and feeling like the sky is falling. NOW, I remember, even if it does fall, God will catch me and it before we collide. Thank you for this good Word.
Love ya, Joyce
