God Is Considerate With You: Part 2

We’re continuing with the series on “God Who Remembers Us” that we started last week. Our God is a God who remembers His covenants. There were many covenants in the Old Testament but most of them were made obsolete and then Lord Jesus made a new covenant with His own blood and we live in the New Covenant with the assurance that our Lord will never leave us nor forsake us.

God set the rainbow in the clouds to remember the everlasting covenant He made with Noah that never again will the waters become a flood to destroy all life. Also, people engaged in a covenant would plant a memorial tree. Likewise, Jesus planted the wooden Cross on the Calvary for us. Animal sacrifices were another way of establishing covenants. Sometimes, the elders of the tribes would cut the palm of the right hand and clasp each other's hand and mingle their blood. Jesus had His hand bleed, poured out His blood for us and the scar in His nail- pierced hands is a remembrance of His love toward us. Though Jesus has a glorious body after His resurrection He has retained the scars in His hands and legs as a token of remembrance of the New Covenant He’s made with each one of us who believes in His finished work!
 He’s retaining His scar so that we can become His star

At the same time, Jesus can change all your scars into stars.

We then moved on to learn of our God who is considerate with us. (Psalm 13:13.,14,Psalm 78:39). God knows how we are formed and remembers that we are dust. He knows our weaknesses. Jesus took human form and went through all such trials to understand the weaknesses of human minds and human lives; and yet He did not sin, rather He defeated sin and death for us.

Let’s now go through the observation of human lives that’s been recorded in the Old Testament. 
Genesis 47:9 And Jacob said to Pharaoh, “The years of my pilgrimage are a hundred and thirty. My years have been few and difficult, and they do not equal the years of the pilgrimage of my fathers.”

Pilgrimage is the journey of a person to a holy place. And based on what Jacob has said here, life is just a pilgrimage or journey with a beginning and an end. Compared to his ancestors who lived close to 1000 years (Adam, Noah, Methuselah), Jacob says that his years have been few and difficult. Jacob had a twin brother Esau, and within their mother’s womb, the babies jostled each other. At the time of their birth, Esau came out first followed by Jacob who came out with his hand grasping Esau’s heel. Esau was a skillful hunter and Isaac, who had a taste for wild game, loved Esau, but Rebekah loved Jacob. Esau despised his birthright for some bread and some lentil stew. Esau held a grudge against Jacob because he took Esau’s birthright and blessing and wanted to kill Jacob. So Jacob fled to his uncle, Laban and struggled for years. Though Jacob had shortcomings, he feared God, offered sacrifices to Him, prayed, made covenants with God and above all loved God, and for that reason God blessed Jacob.

Our life here on Earth is just like a pilgrimage or short journey/ trip or we’ve come to Earth on a visiting visa. None of us have a permanent visa on earth, yet God is considerate to each one of us during our stay here on Earth.

Job 7:9
As a cloud vanishes and is gone, so one who goes down to the grave does not return.
Normally, a person who dies does not return, with few exceptions like Lazarus who was raised from the dead and also the dead in Christ will be raised at the second coming of Jesus. A person’s life vanishes away when he/she dies and people soon forget the dead. However, the world further remembers only those people who’ve made significant contributions to this world. 

People may forget us but God always remembers us regardless of our current status, our achievements, our designation.

Job 1:21 and said: “Naked I came from my mother’s womb, and naked I will depart. The LORD gave and the LORD has taken away; may the name of the LORD be praised.”

We come empty handed and we return the same. Human life is just a loan from God’s time-bank for a short time-period between past eternity and future eternity; but it is too precious. God values your life and He goes before you to guide you to what He has already prepared for you!
