Don`t forget the Lord Jesus
Dear Saints of God,
Deuteronomy 8:11"Be careful that you dont forget the Lord"
In Egypt God's people lived as dependants with no ability to improve their lot in life. To wean them from reliance on others God brought them into the wilderness to teach them reliance on Him. When they reached The Promised Land He warned them, "When you build fine houses and settle down… and all you have is multiplied… Be careful that you do not forget the Lord" (Deuteronomy 8:11-13).This is what's called "financial amnesia." We remember God in times of crisis, but forget Him as soon as they're over. We can't count our blessings because we're too busy counting our money. We don't need Him as much, because everything's going our way. We say, "My power and the strength of my hands have produced this wealth for me" (Deuteronomy 8:17).
When we have nothing, we praise the Lord. Once we get a little something, we want to look dignified, so we keep His name locked behind our lips when questioned about our success. The danger of entering The Promised Land is - forgetting where we came from.A little food in your stomach can make yesterday's hunger seem like a long time ago. A few clothes in your cupboard and a new lounge suite in your living room can make the old stuff you used to get by with, seem like a distant memory. The word for you today is, "Be careful that you do not forget the Lord."

How to keep in touch with the God
1. Give God what's right....... not what's left.
2. Man's way leads to hopeless end ........God's way leads to an endless hope.
3. A lot of kneeling will keep you in good standing.
4. He who kneels before God can stand before anyone.
5. In the sentence of life, the devil may be a comma, but never let him be the period.
6. Don't put a question mark where God puts a period.
7. Are you wrinkled with burden? Come to the church for a face-lift.
8. When praying, don't give God instructions...... just report for duty.
9. Don't wait for six strong men to take you to church.
10. We don't change God's message........His message changes us.
11. The church is prayer-conditioned.
12. When God ordains, He sustains.
13. WARNING: Exposure to the Son may prevent burning.
14. Plan ahead......It wasn't raining when Noah built the ark.
15. Most people want to serve God, but only in an advisory position.
16. Suffering from truth decay? Brush up on your Bible.
17. Exercise daily ...... walk with the Lord.
18. Never give the devil a ride........ he always wants to drive.
19. Nothing else ruins the truth like stretching it.
20. Compassion is difficult to give away because it keeps coming back.
21. He who angers you controls you.
22. Worry is the darkroom in which negatives can develop.
23. Give Satan an inch & he'll be a ruler.
24. Be ye fishers of men........ You catch them & He'll clean them.
25. God doesn't call the qualified, He qualifies the called.
