FAITH CAPSULE: One God remembered cannot be stopped from moving from where it is stranded.
1Samuel 1
God does not forget anyone.
Do you doubt if God has forgotten you?
No one who is distant from God is indeed distant from God.
Are you thinking that your distance from God is the reason God does not remember you?
What is your challenge that demands attention?
God cares for all.
He is a caring creator and does not sleep.
The word of God states in Isaiah 49:15, “Can a woman forget her nursing child, and not have compassion on the son of her womb? Surely, they may forget, Yet I will not forget you.” (Isaiah 49:15)
God does not forget His creation.
God will remember with favor and visit with salvation.
The Psalmist wanted to be remembered, stating, Psalm 106:4, “Remember me, O LORD, with the favor You have toward Your people. Oh, visit me with Your salvation.”
Evidently, God does not forget.
Over four hundred years of bondage was not enough for God not to remember the Israelites in the hand of Pharaoh and his heart of stone. God remembered the Israelites as stated, “Now it happened in the process of time that the king of Egypt died. Then the children of Israel groaned because of the bondage, and they cried out; and their cry came up to God because of the bondage. So God heard their groaning, and God remembered His covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob.” (Exodus 2:23-24)
God remembered the Israelites and acknowledged them.
One God remembered cannot be stopped from moving from where it is stranded.
The Israelites could not stop their journey to the Promised Land.
God acknowledged the Israelites in bondage, and the hand of God terminated bondage to cease permanently.
Just as God remembered the Israelites, He also remembered Hannah.
Hannah, in the time of the visitation of God, barrenness and mockery ceased.
Hannah could not forget her God, but she went to Shiloh seeking God every year.
The mind that God is far could not deny her going to Shiloh every year.
Are you experiencing challenges with your thoughts that God forgets you?
God does not forget.
God remembered and visited Hannah, “…Elkhanah knew Hannah his wife, and the LORD remembered her.”
The remembrance of Hannah, by God, delivered her from mockery into a miracle.
Without a doubt, God is a good God, and there is no evil agenda that can stop God from doing.
God alone will turn mockery into miracle; stagnation into motion to the glory of His Holy name. God is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
Is there any area you are looking to God to remember you in the coming days?
Are you walking in His commands?
Call on God, put Him in remembrance concerning the work of His hand, and He will remember you and visit you with salvation.
Prayer for today: Ask God to look upon you for His visitation.
