Remember your Creator    in the days of your youth,

before the days of trouble come    and the years approach when you 

will say,    “I find no pleasure in them”—

Ecclesiastes 12:1

WHY DOES GOD WANT US TO REMEMBER???

Page 4: RE #1 - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 10AM MORNING SERVICE
Page 5: RE #1 - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 10AM MORNING SERVICE

Remembering is important to God….

Last Supper Luke 22

Page 7: RE #1 - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 10AM MORNING SERVICE

A desire to remember things comes natural for us

Page 8: RE #1 - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 10AM MORNING SERVICE

In fact you could even say our memory is the sum total of who we are!

Page 9: RE #1 - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 10AM MORNING SERVICE

Think  about  it  how  tragic  it  is  when  a loved one loses their memory. They no longer  have  the  ability  to  recognize loved ones, remember stories from the past.  They  in  essence  begin  to  forget who  they  are!  They  are  a  fragment  of what they once were.

Page 10: RE #1 - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 10AM MORNING SERVICE

Equally  as  tragic  a  person  who forgets  who  they  are  spiritually!

We can sometimes remember the wrong things and forget all the right things!

What happens when people don’t remember?

DevastationMarriage broken, Lives destroyed

Page 13: RE #1 - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 10AM MORNING SERVICE

Anyone who feels neither responsibility towards the past nor desire to shape the future is one who forgets!

Dietrich Bonhoeffer

Page 14: RE #1 - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 10AM MORNING SERVICE

Remembering God’s faithfulness from the past:

- Allows us to trust Him in the present!

Page 15: RE #1 - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 10AM MORNING SERVICE

17 You may say to yourselves, “These nations are stronger than we are. How can we drive them out?” 18 But do not be afraid of them; remember well what the LORD your God did to Pharaoh and to all Egypt. 

Deuteronomy 7: 17-19

Page 16: RE #1 - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 10AM MORNING SERVICE

19 You saw with your own eyes the great trials, the  signs  and wonders,  the mighty  hand  and outstretched  arm, with which  the  LORD  your God brought you out. The LORD your God will do the same to all the peoples you now fear. 

Deuteronomy 7: 17-19

Page 17: RE #1 - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 10AM MORNING SERVICE

-   Directs our actions in the future!

Remembering God’s faithfulness from the past:

34 But David  said  to Saul,  “Your  servant has  been  keeping  his  father’s  sheep. When a lion or a bear came and carried off a sheep from the flock

1Samuel 17 34-37

Page 19: RE #1 - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 10AM MORNING SERVICE

35  I went  after  it,  struck  it  and  rescued the  sheep  from  its  mouth.  When  it turned  on  me,  I  seized  it  by  its  hair, struck it and killed it. 

1Samuel 17 34-37

Page 20: RE #1 - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 10AM MORNING SERVICE

36  Your  servant  has  killed  both  the  lion and  the  bear;  this  uncircumcised Philistine  will  be  like  one  of  them, because he has defied the armies of the living God. 

1Samuel 17 34-37

Page 21: RE #1 - PTR VETTY GUTIERREZ - 10AM MORNING SERVICE

37  The  LORD who  rescued me  from  the paw of the lion and the paw of the bear will  rescue  me  from  the  hand  of  this Philistine.”

1Samuel 17 34-37

5 and said to them, “Go over before the ark of the LORD your  God  into  the  middle  of  the Jordan. Each of you is to take up a stone on his shoulder, according to the number of the tribes of the Israelites, 6 to serve as a sign among you. In the future, when your children ask you,  ‘What do these stones mean?’ 

Joshua 4:5-6
