REMEMBER ME
REMEMBER THE DAYS OF OLD:-
Remember the days of old;
consider the years of many generations; ask your father, and he will show you,
your elders, and they will tell you. You shall remember the whole way that the
Lord God has led you these forty years in the wilderness, that he might humble
and testing you, to know what was in your heart, whether you would keep his
commandments or not. He humbled you and let you hunger and fed you with manna,
which you did not know, nor did your fathers know, that he might make you to
know that man does not live by bread alone, but man lives by every word that
comes from the mouth of the Lord. Your clothing did not wear out on you and
your foot did not swell these forty years. Know then in your heart that, as a
man disciplines his son, the Lord God disciplines you. So you shall keep the
commandments of the lord and walking in his ways and by fearing him. Thus for
God has brought us with his mighty hand and led us, sustain us with all good
things, so let us remember the days of old and thank and praise God.
REMEMBER THE DEEDS AND WONDERS OF OLD The psalmist says that I will remember the
deeds of the lord; yes, I will remember your wonders of old. The Lord God found
the Israelite in a desert land, and in the howling waste of the wilderness; he
encircled him, he care for him, he kept him as the apple of his eyes. Like an
eagle that stirs up its nest, that flutters over its young, spreading out its
wings, catching them, and bearing them on its pinions. The Lord alone guided
him and no foreign god was with him. He made him ride on the high places of the
land, and he ate produce of the field, and he suckled him with honey out of
rocks, and oil out of the flinty rock. Curds from the herds, and milk from the
flock, with fat of lambs, rams of Bash an and goats, with the very finest of the
wheat- and you drank foaming wine made from the blood of the grape. He sent
Moses, his servant, and Aaron, whom he had chosen. They performed his signs
among them and miracles in the land of ham. He struck down all the firstborn in
their land, the first fruit of all their strength. Then he brought out Israel
with silver and gold, and there was none among his tribes who stumbled. He
spread a cloud for a covering, and a fire to give light by night. They asked,
and he brought quail, and gave them bread from heaven in abundance. He opened
the rock, and water gushed out; it flowed through the desert like a river. So
he brought the people out with joy, and his chosen ones with singing. He gave
them the lands of the nations, and they took possession of the fruit of the
people’ toil, that they might keep his statutes and observe the laws. Likewise
God has done great wonders and miracles in lives. Let us remember his great
deeds and wonders and let us thank and praise him.
REMEMBER ME AND DO The
lord Jesus on the night when he was betrayed took bread, and when he had given
thanks, he broke it, and said, this is my body which is for you. Do this in
remembrance of me. In the same way also he took the cup, after supper, saying,
this cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, often as you drink it in
remembrance of me. As often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you
proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes. Whoever, therefore, eats the bread or
drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty concerning the body
and blood of the Lord Jesus. Let a person examine himself, then, and so eat of
the bread and drink of the cup.
