Not Forgotten
NOT FORGOTTEN
There are many people today that seem to be forgotten by everyone. The homeless, broken, battered, those in the nursing homes and those that are shut in and unable to get out and go anywhere. While we may forget these sometimes, they are not forgotten.
We all have forgotten people from time to time, but God has never forgotten one of His own nor has He ever forgotten those that have rejected Him and have turned from Him. He sees all and knows all, therefore the wicked are not forgotten in this life.
Proverbs 5:21 For the ways of man are before the eyes of the LORD, and he pondereth all his goings.
Proverbs 15:3 The eyes of the LORD are in every place, beholding the evil and the good.
Revelation 20:12 And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.
Psalm 9:17 The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.
But the Lord keeps a record of those that are His. How can He do this if we are forgotten? Friend you are not forgotten. Praise His Holy name!
Psalm 9:18 For the needy shall not alway be forgotten: the expectation of the poor shall not perish for ever.
Luke 12:6 Are not five sparrows sold for two farthings, and not one of them is forgotten before God?
Malachi 3:16 Then they that feared the LORD spake often one to another: and the LORD hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the LORD, and that thought upon his name.
Isn’t it an awesome thing that the Creator of this world knows you and I and never forgets us? Even when man is astray from God the Lord does not forget him and draws him to himself. While many never heed His call they are not forgotten. But to us that are saved He knows us and hears us when we call on Him.
The world may forget you friend, but the one true living God never will.
Have a great day.
