God’s Book of Remembrance
Do you fear God? Are you careful to respect God’s good name? Does God know you? Are you remembered by God?
The wisdom of the Proverbs says, “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.” (Proverbs 9:10, KJV).
We know God and revere his name when we fear God. When we fear God, he sees us, he hears us, and he knows us as his own. God remembers us when we fear him and revere his holy name.
The Prophet Malachi wrote, “Then those who feared the Lord spoke with one another. The Lord paid attention and heard them, and a book of remembrance was written before him of those who feared the Lord and esteemed his name.” (Malachi 3:16, ESV).
May our names be written in God’s book of remembrance as we fear God and esteem God’s holy name.
A Prayer for Inner Renewal Through the Word: “Gracious God and most merciful Father, you have granted us the rich and precious jewel of your holy Word: Assist us with your Spirit, that the same Word may be written in our hearts to our everlasting comfort, to reform us, to renew us according to your own image, to build us up and edify us into the perfect dwelling place of your Christ, sanctifying and increasing in us all heavenly virtues; grant this, O heavenly Father, for Jesus Christ’s sake. Amen.” (#70., Book of Common Prayer, 2019).
