In 1 Chronicles 1 & 2, we see the lineage of different people
leading up to a certain point. This is something important because the later generations
can see the history and what God has done for them. With us, we need to remember
a couple things as we go through this journey.
As Christians, we should ALWAYS remember what God has brought
us through. I know that if I don't remind myself of what God has done for me in
the hard times, I would have prob stopped living for God. And that is the honest
truth for myself. Life can be rough and sometimes the easiest road, which is normally
against God, is extremely tempting to follow. For example, when I went through my
time of depression, I could've ended the battles in my head by killing myself. Or
when I was told that I would have to repeat student teaching, I was tossed between
graduating without the education major. But, I couldn't do any of those things because
that was not God's will. Luckily, God sent people my way to remind me of the path
and goal. When you are in this fight, you have to remember what God brought you
from. When doubt comes in your mind, remember those times where God healed or delivered
you or someone close to you. Remember that if He did it before, He can do it again.
In addition, you have to remind yourself of your future. Remind
yourself of the goal and what God has promised you. It's funny that Christian talked
about truth being the hope and that Hannah talked a little bit about writing the
vision. When God gives you a word or a promise, you have to write it down as God
gave it you. Don't change it. Keep it the same so you can remember EXACTLY what
He said.
Abraham remembered the promise from God for at least 40-50 years.
David remembered where God brought Him from, which fueled his faith to complete
his task. Now there are tons of examples that used these same principles. Therefore,
we also need to make sure we remember where God has brought us from and where He
promised to bring to you to.
My prayer: Jesus thank You for Your love. Thank You for saving
us. Lord, please continue to remind us of the previous victories that You have taken
care of us. I pray that we never lose sight of the vision and what You did on the
cross for us. In Jesus name, Amen!!
Remember that Christ died and rose again in 3 days. He has won
the victory and He actually won it for you. This is an awesome song. You will have to start at about 1:30 to start hearing the song.
Death could not hold You down
Stay blessed!!!

2 Chronicles 6:41 "Now therefore arise, O LORD God, into thy resting place, thou, and the ark of thy strength: let thy priests, O LORD God, be clothed with salvation, and let thy saints rejoice in goodness."
