Knowing God - He Wants Us to Remember






Ex 17:14

 And the Lord said unto Moses, Write this for a memorial in a book, and rehearse it in the ears of Joshua: for I will utterly put out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven.


The Lord told Moses to write down about the victory they had over the Amalekites.  He also wanted it read out loud to the person who was used in the victory.  We learn that the Lord knows we need reminders and records of the victories and battles the Lord has taken us through.  The Lord knows our frame and He knows we tend to forget the things we should remember and remember the things we should forget.  The Lord will speak to us to record certain battles and their outcomes.  Have you taken the time to recount a victory the Lord has given you?  Have you considered writing it down for the generations that are yet to come?  The Lord wanted Moses to do it immediately afterwards.  He didn’t want Moses going on to the next thing without considering the great victory the Lord had given them.  Even the Lord stopped after each day of creation and beheld that it was good.  Let us take heed and recount some of the great things the Lord has done for us.
