Remember! Deuteronomy 8:11-18 (Deuteronomy 8:11-18), READ
What we remember influences our every action in our daily lives. Some things need to be remembered. We need to remember what we have been taught. We need to remember what we have learned from the experiences of others. We need to remember the lessons we have learned by personal experience.

Ephesians 2:11-12 2 Peter 1:9 1 Corinthians 11:24-25 Jude 5
Remember the Past Ephesians 2:11-12 2 Peter 1:9 1 Corinthians 11:24-25 Jude 5 Remember your former condition outside of Christ. (Ephesians 2:11-12), “Therefore remember that you, once Gentiles in the flesh—who are called Uncircumcision by what is called the Circumcision made in the flesh by hands— 12 that at that time you were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the world.” (Note: Perhaps Demas forgot that, why else would he have forsaken the Lord to return to the world?) Remember the purification from your sins. (2 Peter1:9), “For he [the one who has not diligently matured] who lacks these things is shortsighted, even to blindness, and has forgotten that he was cleansed from his old sins.” Remember what Jesus did for you. (1 Corinthians 11:24-25 ), “and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, " Take, eat; this is My body which is broken for you; do this in remembrance of Me." 25 In the same manner He also took the cup after supper, saying, " This cup is the new covenant in My blood. This do, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me." Remember what God has done to disobedient in the past. (Jude 5), “But I want to remind you, though you once knew this, that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed those who did not believe.”

Remember to Live in the Present
James 1:19-25 2 Timothy 1:3 1 Peter 3:10-12 Philippians 2:12-16 Remember to be an effectual doer. (James 1:19-25), “So then, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath; 20 for the wrath of man does not produce the righteousness of God. 21 Therefore lay aside all filthiness and overflow of wickedness, and receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls. 22 But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. 23 For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man observing his natural face in a mirror; 24 for he observes himself, goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was. 25 But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one will be blessed in what he does.” Remember others in your prayers. (2 Timothy 1:3), “I thank God, whom I serve with a pure conscience, as my forefathers did, as without ceasing I remember you in my prayers night and day” Remember to “kindle afresh your gift.” 2Ti.1:6 Remember, if you want good days, refrain from evil. (1 Peter 3:10-12), “For, ‘He who would love life and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips from speaking deceit. 11 Let him turn away from evil and do good; let him seek peace and pursue it. 12 For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and His ears are open to their prayers; but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.’" Remember to “work out your own salvation.” (Philippians 2:12-16), “Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling; 13 for it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure. 14 Do all things without complaining and disputing, 15 that you may become blameless and harmless, children of God without fault in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world, 16 holding fast the word of life, so that I may rejoice in the day of Christ that I have not run in vain or labored in vain.”

Remember to Look to the Future
Hebrews 11:15 Romans 11:18 2 Peter 3:1-7 Remember to look ahead, not behind. (With regard to desire) (Hebrews 11:15), “And truly if they [sojourners and pilgrims of the OT] had called to mind that country from which they had come out, they would have had opportunity to return.” [For example, don’t long for the “flesh pots in Egypt.”] Remember God does not need you, you need God. (Romans 11:18), “do not boast against the branches. But if you do boast, remember that you do not support the root, but the root supports you.” Remember to look forward to the coming of the Lord. (2 Peter 3:1-7), “Beloved, I now write to you this second epistle (in both of which I stir up your pure minds by way of reminder), 2 that you may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us, the apostles of the Lord and Savior, 3 knowing this first: that scoffers will come in the last days, walking according to their own lusts, 4 and saying, "Where is the promise of His coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of creation." 5 For this they willfully forget: that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of water and in the water, 6 by which the world that then existed perished, being flooded with water. 7 But the heavens and the earth which are now preserved by the same word, are reserved for fire until the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.”

Philippians 3:13-14 2 Timothy 4:14 1 Corinthians 13:5
Remember Not Philippians 3:13-14 2 Timothy 4:14 1 Corinthians 13:5 Don’t dwell on past failures, mistakes, sins. (Philippians 3:13-14), “Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, 14 I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.” Don’t nurture past injustices, hurts. (2 Timothy 4:14 ), “Alexander the coppersmith did me much harm. May the Lord repay him according to his works.” Don’t relive past problems. (1 Corinthians 13:5), [LOVE], “does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil” Don’t fret about “would’ve, should’ve, could’ve.” Don’t dream of what might-have-been. Trying to relive past only wastes the present.
