Remembered by God!
1 Chronicles 6:5-10
Many men who served the LORD as priests for Israel were listed in the genealogies – are we familiar with their names or how they lived their lives? No – we do not see their names in the history of Israel, except in the genealogical lists.
Your name and mine will probably not be remembered in the future. Our lives, and how we are choosing to live, may be remembered for a generation or two after us – but then the memories of our lives will fall and be forgotten. How we loved and obeyed our Savior – may not be remembered by many.
Is that ok? I think so – for the One who is important will remember you and me, follower of Christ..
Malachi 3:16-18 “then those who feared the LORD spoke to one another, and the LORD gave attention and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before Him for those who fear the LORD and who esteem His name.
17 ‘They will be Mine,’ says the LORD of hosts, ‘on the day that I prepare My own possession, and I will spare them as a man spares his own son who serves him.’
18 So you will again distinguish between the righteous and the wicked, between one who serves God and one who does not serve Him.”
Revelation 21:27 “and nothing unclean, and no one who practices abomination and lying shall come into it (the new Jerusalem verse 10), but only those whose names are written in the Lamb’s book of life.”
Consider this ~
You either are righteous and serve the living God
or you are wicked and do not serve the living God.
How will God remember you?
