GOD WHO REMEMBERS US

                           By John Varghese.

God is our loving heavenly father who remembers us always in all our situations. We human being may not remember all our friends and relatives in their time of needs. In Psalm 136:23 we read, to the one who remembered us in our low estate, His love endures for ever. Many a times people may not remember us in our low estate or in our pathetic conditions, but our God remembers us. If they remembers also there is time limit for that but our God remembers us always.
He remembers us to deliver us:

When we cry to God He remembers and makes ways of deliverance. In Exodus 2: 24, 25 - we read, God heard their groaning and He remembered His covenant with Abraham, with Isaac and with Jacob. So He looked on the Israelites and was concerned about them. He not only remembers us but He is concerned about our conditions also. He prepared a way of deliverance for the children of Israel from the slavery of Egypt.The children of Israel cried to God in their sufferings at Egypt God heard their cry and remembered His covenant with Abraham and concerned about them and delivered them with His mighty Hands. The people who are in the bondage of sin and sufferings, if they turned to God He will deliver them through the blood of Jesus Christ. In Gen 19:20 we read that, when God destroyed the cities of the plain, he remembered Abraham, and He brought Lot out of the catastrophe that over threw the cities where Lot had lived. In Genesis chapter 18 we read that Abraham is pleading for these cities from 50 then45, 40,30,20 and finally 10 righteous people are there will you destroy it, God said no for the sake of ten righteous people He will not destroy it. But there is not even ten righteous people there. But God delivered Lot, when we pray for the cities where we live though it may destroyed because of its sinful condition but God will deliver us in His own way. What a wonderful loving God He is!! He deliver us from our sinful nature to His righteousness Amen!!!. Through the death of His son Jesus Christ on Calvary Cross !!!!.

He remembers us to bless us:
In Psalms 115:12,13 - we read that, The Lord remembers us and will bless us: He will bless the house of Israel, He will bless the house of Aaron, He will bless those who fear the Lord small and great alike. When our God remembers us His blessings also follows.  In the book of Esther we read about Mordecai was honoured when Haman plotted against him and the children of Israel. King could not sleep he asked for the chronicles and found out that Mordecai exposed Bigthana and Teresh and their conspiracy of assassinating  King Xerxes. Then he remembered that nothing has been done for this good work of Mordecai. This is the work of God in the time his trouble and suffering, he cried to God. God remembered him and reminded this to King Xerxes to honour him. God is able to change our problems into dancing and rejoicing.
 HE REMEMBERS US FOREVER.
In Psalms 105:8 the Bible says He remembers His covenant forever, the word he commanded for thousand generations. We may remember for  three or four generations not more than that but God remembers the words He commanded for thousand generations. What a wonderful God He is !! We are not able to remember the words we say for even some hours or days or months. Today with the help of electronics gadgets we record some of our sayings and when we replay it we remember it for some more years. But see the greatness of God. This gives us a clear assurance of our eternity and about out eternal life which He provided us through His son Jesus Christ.  We will leave with God eternally. God remembers all His promises He promised to us. We many times not at all remember our promises even when the other person reminds us about it because we are not willing to be faithful in our promises. In Psalms 105:42 we read in the Bible, For he remembered his holy promise given to His servant Abraham.
