NEVER FORGOTTEN
Isaiah 49:13-23Devotional:- “Can a woman forget her nursing child, And not have compassion on the son of her womb? Surely they may forget, Yet I will not forget you” (V. 15) NKJV
Delays in some situations of life could sometimes make one feel forgotten. This could make anyone feel neglected and hated. Have you ever been in a situation where everyone was served but you alone were forgotten? This could bring a big embarrassment. But God cannot make such a mistake. Before He began serving, you were the one in His mind. His mind is filled with the memory of your love.
The scripture we read today says, even if a mother forgets to nurse her child, which I think is impossible, God said He cannot forget you. If a woman, for example, is far away from a child which has not been weaned, two of them will not find it easy. The baby will soon be crying, and the mother’s breast will soon be heavy and painful.
Friend, God can never forget you. That is why He said He inscribed you in the palm of His hand (Isaiah 49:16). Do you know that He sees you wherever you are (Proverbs 15:3)? Your matter cannot escape His mind. He is only waiting to work things out for you at the right season (1 Peter 5:7). And everything has its own time of beauty (Ecclesiastes 3:11). You will not miss your time. He is working for your good. You just need to continue to serve Him joyfully, and He will reward you adequately. Don’t be discouraged, He never forgets your labour of love: He will reward you (Hebrews 6:10). Wait on Him (Hebrews 6:12). Surely there is a time of glory. You will not miss it in Jesus name.
Prayer: Lord, remember me for good.
“WHEN YOU ARE ALWAYS IN HIS MEMORY, YOU WILL ALWAYS BE IN HIS LIST”
