God
Remembers, Forgives and Redeems!
Isaiah
44:21-23 Amplified “Remember [the foolishness of] these
things, O Jacob And Israel, for you are My servant! I formed
you, you are My servant; O Israel, you will not be forgotten
by Me. 22 “I have wiped out your transgressions like a thick
cloud And your sins like a heavy mist. Return to Me, for I
have redeemed you.” 23 Shout for joy, O heavens, for the
LORD has done it! Shout in triumph, you depths of the earth;
Break forth into jubilant rejoicing, you mountains, O
forest, and every tree in it! For the LORD has redeemed
Jacob, And He shows His glory in Israel.
In this three point outline we see three of the most
wonderful promises and blessings God has for all. We
only have to act and be blessed.
I. God reminds us
that we belong to Him.
A.
He calls us His servant.
1. He promises us that we are never forgotten as He always
remembers us.
a. He know everything about us. Even the hairs of
our head He knows.
b. Being His servant we must remember a servant
serves, We need to serve God. Let us serve Him because we
love Him.
II. He has
forgiven us, redeemed us.
A.
We were in the devil's Pawn Shop, but Jesus bought us back.
Paying for our redemption with His precious blood.
1. We were bought with the greatest price. The Blood of
Jesus.
a. When He redeemed us He forgave us our sins.
2. When God forgives He forgets. Only we remember and the
devil who tries to continue to condemn us but Romans 8:1
tells us that 'There is therefore now no condemnation to
them which are in Christ Jesus,...'
3 Forgiveness; it warms the heart and cools the sting of sin
and conviction.
III. When we come
to the place of not only receiving and returning to Him we
then will 'Shout for joy, O heavens, for the LORD has done
it! Shout in triumph,'
A.
We can shout with the Psalmist Psalm 103:2-5 Bless the
LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits: 3 Who
forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy
diseases; 4 Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who
crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies; 5 Who
satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is
renewed like the eagle's.
1. REMEMBER Joy is the by-product of obedience.
God bless you and yours!
