“I REMEMBER THEE”

INTRODUCTION: Much love and many believing prayers for our readers and supporters.  The Bride’s days here in these bodies are numbered.  Every day we look for those who died in Christ to come to us in their resurrected bodies.  We cry “Come quickly, Lord Jesus”!  The squeeze is on the Bride and the pressure is mounting.  The Capstone Ministry of love is now happening in the Bride as she receives a Burden for Souls that are still lost.  The Bride is now learning the difference between human compassion and a God-sent Burden from the Lord.  These burdens, when prayed through, always brings God’s will and purpose to pass.  We will not stop believing when we have prayed until the Burden is lifted.  Sometimes the answer comes after the praying Saint is in the grave.  God be with you.  We love you each one of you individually.

Rom. 8:29-31, “For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.

30 Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified.

31 What shall we then say to these things?  If God be for us, who can be against us?”

   God always remembers those that chose to Stay with Him in Heaven.  This was before He created the world.  Some followed Lucifer, but God will never forget nor forsake those that He foreknew.  They are now being conformed to the Image of His son.  They are His bride!  He will never forget them.

   Jer. 2:1-2, “Moreover the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

2 Go and cry in the ears of Jerusalem, saying, Thus  saith  the  Lord;   I remember thee, the kindness of thy youth, the love of thine espousals, when thou wentest after me in the wilderness, in a land that was not sown.”

   NOTICE HERE THAT GOD LOVES TO THINK ABOUT HIS CHURCH!!!!  HE LOVES TO LOOK ON HER RIGHTEOUSNESS THAT HE HAS CLOTHED HER WITH!!!

   This Spring, we watched the Birds build nests and lay eggs.  She would leave the nest to get food, but was never gone long.  She returned often to her nest!  And so is

the Lord’s mind constantly on the Elect People that while they were still in Heaven, chose to stay with Him there.

   From all Eternity His thought have been toward those Faithful Angelic  Beings who would not follow Lucifer.  His thoughts rolled forward toward the time when His Elect would be born on earth!!!  He saw us on the great screen of His supernatural T.V..  His foreknowledge!

   Psalm 139:13-18, “For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother’s womb.

14 I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works and that my soul knoweth right well.

15 My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.

16 Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when  as yet there was none of them.

17 How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them!

18 If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: When I awake, I am still with thee.”

   God’s eyes and His thoughts are never removed from us.  We are flesh of His flesh and bone of His bone.  He is what His Bride is, and they are what He is.  A Bride member wrote this poem.  “ Created by Him, a perfect being, with love intense I burned.  I chose Him ere time begun.  He chose me here in return!

   He is what I am, and I am what He is. It is a fact that we are one, and this also before time begun.”

   God appeared many times to His People Before He ever came to die for our Sins.

   He couldn’t Rest apart from them.  His Heart longed for them.  He Sought their Fellowship!!

    He came down on the Plains of Mamre in the likeness of a man. (Gen.18)

   And by the Brook of Jabbok (Gen.32:24-30)

   He walked with them around the walls of Jericho (Joshua 5:13)

   And in the Fiery furnace at Babylon (Dan. 3: 19-25)

   He walked and talked with them in the Garden of Eden (Gen. 3:8)

   Then He actually Became one of us (Kinsman) and lived with man for three and one-half years.

   Never was His elect absent from His Heart, because He had written them on the Palms of His Hands. (The Nail Scars)

   The Names of His Elect were His most Precious Jewels.

   We may at times forget to meditate on our Lord, but He never lets us get out of His mind!!

   Prov. 16:33, “The lot is cast into the lap; but the whole disposing thereof is of the Lord.”

   If God is in control of the casting of lots  to make a decision-------------------- Then  who  is in  control of our whole life???

   He has told us that he Keeps up with the number of hairs that is on our Head.

   He has said “A sparrow can’t fall without Him”.

   It will give us Peace of Mind if we will remember these things.

   We are meddling with God’s business when we Fret about our circumstances.  He has already set His plan into motion and so shall it be.

   We need to learn to obey Him as He speaks to us and let Him do the providing of our needs.

   His Garners are Full and he will direct the distribution of them to the last Grain!!!

   Yes, He remembers us every minute of every hour and He knows the way that we take.

   He will test our Faith, but never fails to meet our needs.

  The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord: and he delighteth in his way.” (Psalm 37:23)

   We whose steps He is ordering are delighted that He is leading  the  way for us and He is delighted that we desire  His way and plan.

   Psalm 32:8, “I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye.”

   Isaiah 30:21, “And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left.”

   There is another Person that remembers us also.  His name is Lucifer, the king of the devils.

  In  Rev. 12:7-9, The Bible speaks of a war that took place in Heaven.  7   “And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, 

8   And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven.

9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into  the  earth,  and   his

angels were cast out with him.”

   The devil (Lucifer) remembers us because we were in God’s Army in Heaven that helped to Put him out.

   Yes, he remembers very well and now the Bride here on earth still has Power and Authority over him.

   See Luke 10:19, “Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.”

   Yes, the devil knows the name of every true Christian and he fears them, although he teaches that we should fear him.  That is a doctrine of demons!

   God remembers us when He allows us to go through the valleys.  He is God in the hard times….

   It is in the valleys that we learn to trust Him.  To watch Him deliver us when there is no earthly way builds great Faith in our Saviour.  It will end in Rapturing Faith.

   At this time all this writer can see is Whale’s Belly,  but  I know the Whale is headed for the bank.  God never leaves an obedient servant in the Whale’s Belly.
