Remember: Be mindful of, recount, still think on. To think again about something. To retain in the memory, remain aware of.
John 10:10 says, the thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. The enemy is a liar and a deceiver. His strategy is to keep us focused on the wrong things. If he can cloud your perspective of how things really are, he can negatively impact your trust and confidence in God. He wants to weaken your capacity to believe that God is a promise maker and a promise keeper.
The value of remembering is it reminds you of how good and faithful God has been. Remembering all the times God blessed you in the past helps you to be certain that He will bless you now. Remembering keeps you properly focused. Remembering helps you maintain your faith stance. Remembering helps you to stand strong and not quit or forfeit the promise.
The enemy’s goal is to bombard your mind so that you do not remember all the great things God has already done. I encourage you to not forget, but to continue to press forward being mindful that if He did it before He will do it again.
As we embark upon the Thanksgiving Season, let’s remember to thank God for all the great and wonderful things He has done!
Peace & Blessings
