REMEMBER ME...

By Wade Martin Hughes, Sr. Kyfingers@aol.com

I have purchased red yard and cut it up into one foot sections.

This could also be done with red plastic eggs...I GIVE ONE TO EACH PERSON AS A TOKEN OF REMEMBERANCE...

1. REMEMBER A LITTLE MAN THAT HAD REALLY MESSED UP HIS LIFE...

THE JUDGE FOUND HIM GUILTY... THE SIN PRICE WAS CLEAR... YOU MUST DIE.

On a hill just outside the city limits of Jerusalem three criminals paid the price of sin.

ONE MAN cursed and yelled mean things to Jesus the middle cross...

ONE MAN saw there was something special about the man in the middle...

HISTORY WAS CHANGED MY THE MAN IN THE MIDDLE...

THE MAN ON THE RIGHT SIDE ASKED JESUS A QUESTION...

JESUS WILL YOU REMEMBER ME...

Luke 23:42 And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom.

ONE MAN DIED IN SIN.

ONE MAN DIED TO SIN.

ONE MAND DIED FOR SIN.

Luke 23:43 And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise.

JESUS REMEMBER THE SINNER AND FORGOT HIS SINS...

O, JESUS PLEASE REMEMBER US... TODAY.

MY CRY THIS DAY, IS GOD REMEMBER ME. REMEMBER MY FAMILY. REMEMBER OUR CHURCH. GOD, PLEASE REMEMBER OUR NATION. REMEMBER THE WORLD...

2. THE RAIN BOW IS A CALL TO REMEMBER... THHE RAIN BOW IS NOT JUST US REMEMBERING GOD...

THE RAIN BOW IS GOD REMEMBERING HIS PEOPLE...

GOD WILL REMEMBER HIS COVENANT...

We might forget ... but God will not forget...

GOD HAS YOU ENGRAVEN IN THE PALMS OF HIS HANDS...

Genesis 9:15 And I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh.

3. SOME TIMES IN OUR FAILURES WE THINK OUR ACTIONS LIMIT WHAT GOD CAN DO...

WE CAN ALLOW OUR FAILURES TO EFFECT/AFFECT OUR PRAYER LIFES AND THUS BRING US TO A LIMITED VICTORY...

Samson knew he had disappointed his parents in the choices he made.

He also knew that his choices and behavior broke the heart of God... and God's commamndments.

WHY SHOULD WE PRAY: ONLY THIS ONCE...

Samson could have been a good judge for Israel.

Judges 16:28 And Samson called unto the LORD, and said, O Lord GOD, remember me, I pray thee, and strengthen me, I pray thee, only this once, O God, that I may be at once avenged of the Philistines for my two eyes.

WHILE WE TEND TO REMEMBER THE FAULTS AND FAILURES OF OTHERS AND OURSELVES... GOD HAS A SEA OF FORGETFULNESS AND HE REMOVES OUR SIN AS FAR AS THE EAST IS FROM THE WEST...

If this had been north and south, it would have been limited... you travel north so far and you will be going south. You can travel east to west 100 years and you will still be traveling east.

4. GOD SAID: REMEMBER BE READY... I WILL PASS OVER YOU...

Exodus 12:11-13 (KJV)

Ex 12:11 And thus shall ye eat it; with your loins girded, your shoes on your feet, and your staff in your hand; and ye shall eat it in haste: it is the LORD'S passover.

12 For I will pass through the land of Egypt this night, and will smite all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment: I am the LORD.

13 And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where ye are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you, when I smite the land of Egypt.

YOU MUST REMEMBER TO STAY IN YOUR HOUSE...THERE IS GREAT DANGER...

REMEMBER, STAY NEATH THE BLOOD...

IS THE BLOOD STILL THERE...

Exodus 12:22 And ye shall take a bunch of hyssop, and dip it in the blood that is in the bason, and strike the lintel and the two side posts with the blood that is in the bason; and none of you shall go out at the door of his house until the morning.

God never said when YOU SEE THE BLOOD, I WILL PASS OVER YOU...

GOD SAID, WHEN I SEE THE BLOOD ON YOUR DOOR POST ... I WILL PASS OVER YOU...

You will be exempt from the judgments of this world. STAY NEATH THE COVERING...

5. BY REMEMBERANCE AND FAITH WE COME TO THE LORD'S TABLE!

AS OFT AS YE DO THIS... DO IT IN REMEMBERANCE OF JESUS...

The giving of thanks: " THE EUCHARIST"

Jesus wants us to remember THE TERRIBLE PRICE THAT WAS PAID to purchase our SALVATION in grace and mercy.

JESUS took the bread and blessed it...

JESUS took the cup and blessed it...

FOR THIS IS GOD REMEMBERING US AND WE ARE REMEMBERING GOD...

Matthew 26:26 And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed it, and brake it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body. 27 And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it; 28 For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins. 29 But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom.

1 Corinthians 11:24 And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me. 25 After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me. 26 For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord's death till he come.

6. DO WE REMEMBER RAHAB THE HARLOT'S RED CORD HANGING OVER THE WALL...

GOD REMEMBERED HER AND HER FAMILY...

This RED CORD WAS THE PROMISE THE SPIES WOULD REMEMBER and honor the whole family...

Joshua 2:21 And she said, According unto your words, so be it. And she sent them away, and they departed: and she bound the scarlet line in the window.

Rahab was totally FAITH DEPENDENT ON THE PROMISE OF TWO SPIES... REMEMBER ME...

The scarlet cord MUST NOT BE OMMITTED...

To hang the red cord out the window seemed trivial, almost stupid?

MANY WILL NOT UNDERSTAND THE SCARLET CORD?

The devils and demons in HELL understand...

Page #3

JEHOVAH GOD IS GOING TO PASS BY THESE WALLS...

When the judgments are destroying the walls, GOD'S ANGELS WILL SEE THE CORD AND WILL PASS BY IN MERCY AND GRACE.

Joshua 6:23-25 And the young men that were spies went in, and brought out Rahab, and her father, and her mother, and her brethren, and all that she had; and they brought out all her kindred, and left them without the camp of Israel. 24 And they burnt the city with fire, and all that was therein: only the silver, and the gold, and the vessels of brass and of iron, they put into the treasury of the house of the LORD. 25 And Joshua saved Rahab the harlot alive, and her father's household, and all that she had; and she dwelleth in Israel even unto this day; because she hid the messengers, which Joshua sent to spy out Jericho.

I am very secure IN THE REMEMBERANCE OF THE SCARLET CORD...

Rahab remembered... The army remembered... God remembered...

RAHAB'S ACT OF FAITH, THEN SUBMISSION AND OBEDIENCE TO THE WORD...

Rahab is remembered in the New Testament...

Hebrews 11:31 By faith the harlot Rahab perished not with them that believed not, when she had received the spies with peace.

7. THE CROSS IS A REMINDER: GOD LOVES HIS PEOPLE ...

LOVE GIVES, REAL LOVE GIVES IT'S BEST... GOD GAVE HIS ONLY SON...

DO NOT EVER FORGET... BE READY...

Matthew 24:44 Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.

REMEMBER: GOD GREW THE TREE THAT HE KNEW WOULD BE USED FOR THE OLD RUGGED CROSS...

Jesus will never let His people forget His love...

If all the love God's people have experienced --- HE WILL RENEW AND REFRESH HIS LOVE.

How could we ever forget GOD HAD ALOVE PLAN to remember at the foundation of the world...

JESUS DESIRES US TO REMEMBER HIM...

Remember JESUS IS COMING BACK FOR HIS BRIDE... THE CHURCH

Beloved we are BETROTHED... WE MUST REMEMBER AND BE READY...

THE CROSS IS A REMEMBERANCE AND A WITNESS OF GOD'S LOVE...

Lo, I COME...

God's table is a reminder... AS OFT AS YE DO... REMEMBER.

1. Remember the broken body...

2. Remember the shed blood...

3. Remember the inner searching and self correction...

4. Remember God's love gave the best of heaven...

GOD PLEASE, REMIND US TO REMEMBER YOU. GOD, PLEASE, REMEMBER US
