Psalm 145: 4-5, 7<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

37<\/sup><\/em>David said moreover, The LORD that delivered me out of the paw of the lion, and out of the paw of the bear, he will deliver me out of the hand of this Philistine. And Saul said unto David, Go, and the LORD be with thee.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 Samuel 17:37<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Did you know God told his people when they experienced a victory to build a memorial and when they pass by it they should tell their children about what God did for them? Seems like celebrating past victories was important to God. Now He didn’t say stay there forever. He didn’t say to get stuck in the past and stop moving. NO! He told them when you come this way remember. He has more victories for you! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I have a hard time getting into the place of prayer, (let’s face we all have those moments) but I have found one of the quickest ways I can get the the river flowing is to begin to remember and thank God for what He has done for me. The last thing I ever want to be is unthankful. I don’t want to ever forget how He has saved me, how He has healed me, how He has provided for me. I want to testify of God’s faithfulness to help others that are struggling. But I know there is more! As I am faithful to remember and speak those things, I know that it will release more victory in my life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
