Bible Text: Isaiah 43:15
Remember God’s faithfulness. Respond in faith.
Today, we trace the word ‘remember’ through the book of Isaiah.
What does God’s word say about remembering His faithfulness?
Read Isaiah 12:4-5
I. REMEMBER: IT’S NOT ABOUT YOU
“Make mention” – most often translated as “remember” (to mark, to mention, to be mindful)
Read Psalm 73:25
II. REMEMBER: YOUR IDENTITY IS IN CHRIST
Read Isaiah 44:21
What Jesus thinks about you is more important than what other people think about you.
III. REMEMBER: GOD WILL PROVIDE
Read Isaiah 46:9
He is God. There is none like Him. You don’t take care of Him – HE takes care of YOU.
IV. RESPOND IN FAITH: BECAUSE GOD IS ALWAYS AT WORK
Read Isaiah 43:18-19
We give because we remember:
- it’s not about us
- our identity is in Jesus
- God will provide
