REMEMBERING WHEN

Exodus 13:3 Moses said to the people, "Always remember this day. This is the day when you came out of Egypt from a house of slavery. God brought you out of here with a powerful hand.   

Funny how Moses felt it was necessary to remind the people of Israel of the incredible moments of their Exodus from Egypt.  I mean you would think, to go from slavery (being in bondage for hundreds of year, I mean literally from the day they were born until .....) to being freed from that.   The witnessing of the plagues, that didn't affect God's people, but God's people saw His might demonstrated against those who were against Him.  This sounds to me absolutely unforgettable!  But the truth is they had memories like goldfish, and if we are honest many of us do too.  Today is Wednesday the 4th Day, of a brand new year.....and here's my question....have you been complaining?  Do you remember Monday's devotional challenge to not complain? 

GOD hadn't done His best work yet in the lives of the Israelites...He still was planning on parting the Red Sea, and drowning out Pharoahs army...etc.....but you are no different.   IF you really stop and think about it, GOD has already done, and been doing some AMAZING THINGS in your life.  SERIOUSLY....stop....think....rejoice on the fact that HE has delivered you out of something, and guess what.....HIS BEST WORKS are yet to come!  So it's ok to stop complaining....and start remembering that THIS IS THE DAY for remembering & rejoicing over what the LORD has done, & that He isn't finished!  His best work is yet to come in your life....now if that aint ENOUGH TO ENCOURAGE YOU!    Have a blessed WEDNESDAY and don't forget to exhaust yourself today....... Loving God & Loving all People!
