REMEMBER ME LORD!

4 Remember me, Lord, when you show favor to your people; come near and rescue me.

5 Let me share in the prosperity of your chosen ones. Let me rejoice in the joy of your people; let me praise you with those who are your heritage.

Many times we pray and it seems like God cannot even hear our prayers, not to talk of answering them.

We even see other people getting their prayers answered seemingly easily and wonder what our offence is that God has not answered us.

In Genesis 30, the Bible says Rachel had no child for Jacob while Leah had birthed child after child for him, even as she aged.

It must have really seemed as if God was not hearing Rachel’s prayers at all, but in verse 22ESV, the Bible says

One major prayer point that you must pray when it seems like God is not hearing your prayer is,

‘Remember me, oh Lord’.

  • The first thing that happens when God remembers a person is that the individual’s prayer would be answered.

If you have been praying for one miracle or the other and there has been no answer, God will remember you today, in Jesus’ name. Psalm 65:2NKJV says

God hears prayers but the Bible says that if He is to answer, there are certain conditions that must be satisfied.

For example, in Isaiah 55:6, the Bible says

Thus you may have been praying for a while,

not even sure whether He is near or not because you cannot see Him,

but when He chooses to remember, He Himself would draw near to you.

  • The second thing that happens whenever God remembers someone is that doors begin to open for the person.

You may have been knocking on some doors that have stubbornly remained shut,

but the One who remembered Rachel is He who has the key of David;

  • when He opens, no man can shut and when He shuts, none can open, Revelation 3:7.

If the enemy has shut a door against you, in the name that is above every other, this very day, it will be opened.

All you need is for God to remember you.

The Lord will remember you today as you pray, in Jesus’ name.

Prayer focus – Father, please remember me and answer my prayers today.
