The Future Is Bright

The Lord says, “Remember your history with God when you are in the middle of the mystery of God.”

If you are a Christian you have a history with God. He has done miracles in you, through you, or around you that you cannot deny. Your salvation alone is a miracle that cannot be denied if you do not forget who you used to be before you met Jesus. Friends, we have so much God has done in our generation, we could write story after story. Then add all the history Israel has with God and all the stories in the Bible about what God has done and we have enough history with God to never doubt God.

The challenge is, we forget the history when we are living in a mystery, but God gave us a history with Him so when we are walking in mystery we can lean on our history. God does not change, He is the same yesterday, today and forever. What He did for Israel, He will do for our nation, your nation, any nation. We have been grafted in, we are one new man in Christ, neither Jew nor Gentile any longer. We can trust the history of God, when we don’t understand the mystery we are walking in right now.

Mystery of sickness; mystery of marriage, divorce, death; mystery of money; mystery of dreams yet to be fulfilled; mystery of barrenness; mystery of hurt, grief, pain; mystery of abuse and misuse of people; so many mysteries, yet we have a history with God. Psalm 78 says, “He commanded our fathers to teach to their children, that the next generation might know them, the children yet unborn, and arise and tell them to their children, so that they should set their hope in God and not forget the works of God, but keep his commandments;”

Friends, remember your history with God, talk about it, dwell in it, for your history is what is going to get you through the mystery. Future generations are depending on us.
