1. Remembrance Makes You Appreciate Salvation
- Remembering your salvation encourages continual gratitude and evangelism.
- Christians who forget their salvation often stop evangelizing and substitute motivational messages for the gospel.
- True remembrance leads to heartfelt worship and altar calls that focus on eternal salvation, not just earthly prosperity.
2. Remembrance Makes You Grateful
- Forgetfulness and ungratefulness are spiritually dangerous.
- Those who forget how they were helped become indifferent and dishonor their spiritual leaders or parents.
- God desires gratitude for His blessings and the people He uses to deliver them.
3. Remembrance Makes You Kind and Helpful
- Remembering your past challenges motivates compassion toward others in need.
- God commanded Israel to care for the fatherless, widows, and strangers in remembrance of their own bondage in Egypt.
- Remembrance should govern behavior, fostering inclusion and generosity.
A life of remembrance produces humility, gratitude, and action. Forgetting where you came from jeopardizes your faith, your mission, and your relationships.
