Ecclesiastes 9:13-15 God remembered: Noah, Abraham, His promise, His mercy, His covenant, Hannah, Rachel, that we are but dust, our alms, our iniquity, but He does not remember the sins of the righteous. What will God remember about you?

2. Ecclesiastes 9:13-15 This wisdom I
have also seen under the sun, and it
seemed great to me: 14 There was a
little city with few men in it; and a
great king came against it, besieged
it, and built great snares around it.
15 Now there was found in it a poor
wise man, and he by his wisdom
delivered the city. Yet no one
remembered that same poor man.

3. REMEMBRANCE
A. No one remembered the poor wise man who had
delivered the city.
B. We all want to be remembered.
C. Ecclesiastes 9:3-5 This is an evil in all that is done
under the sun: that one thing happens to all. Truly
the hearts of the sons of men are full of evil;
madness is in their hearts while they live, and
after that they go to the dead. 4 But for him who is
joined to all the living there is hope, for a living
dog is better than a dead lion. 5 For the living
know that they will die; But the dead know
nothing, And they have no more reward, For the
memory of them is forgotten.
D. God remembered a lot of people…

4. GOD REMEMBERED NOAH
Genesis 8:1-5 Then God remembered Noah, and
every living thing, and all the animals that were
with him in the ark. And God made a wind to
pass over the earth, and the waters subsided. 2
The fountains of the deep and the windows of
heaven were also stopped, and the rain from
heaven was restrained. 3 And the waters
receded continually from the earth. At the end
of the hundred and fifty days the waters
decreased. 4 Then the ark rested in the seventh
month, the seventeenth day of the month, on
the mountains of Ararat. 5 And the waters
decreased continually until the tenth month. In
the tenth month, on the first day of the month,
the tops of the mountains were seen.

5. GOD REMEMBERED ABRAHAM
Genesis 19:23-29 The sun had risen upon the earth
when Lot entered Zoar. 24 Then the LORD rained
brimstone and fire on Sodom and Gomorrah, from
the LORD out of the heavens. 25 So He overthrew
those cities, all the plain, all the inhabitants of the
cities, and what grew on the ground. 26 But his wife
looked back behind him, and she became a pillar of
salt. 27 And Abraham went early in the morning to the
place where he had stood before the LORD. 28 Then
he looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward
all the land of the plain; and he saw, and behold, the
smoke of the land which went up like the smoke of a
furnace. 29 And it came to pass, when God destroyed
the cities of the plain, that God remembered
Abraham, and sent Lot out of the midst of the
overthrow, when He overthrew the cities in which Lot
had dwelt.

6. GOD REMEMBERS HIS PROMISE
Psalm 105:38-45 Egypt was glad when they
departed, For the fear of them had fallen upon
them. 39 He spread a cloud for a covering, And
fire to give light in the night. 40 The people
asked, and He brought quail, And satisfied them
with the bread of heaven. 41 He opened the rock,
and water gushed out; It ran in the dry places
like a river. 42 For He remembered His holy
promise, And Abraham His servant. 43 He
brought out His people with joy, His chosen
ones with gladness. 44 He gave them the lands
of the Gentiles, And they inherited the labor of
the nations, 45 That they might observe His
statutes And keep His laws. Praise the LORD!

7. GOD REMEMBERS HIS MERCY
Psalm 98:2-3 The LORD has made known
His salvation; His righteousness He has
revealed in the sight of the nations. 3 He
has remembered His mercy and His
faithfulness to the house of Israel; All the
ends of the earth have seen the salvation
of our God.

8. GOD REMEMBERED HIS COVENANT
A. Exodus 2:23-25 Now it happened in the
process of time that the king of Egypt died.
Then the children of Israel groaned because
of the bondage, and they cried out; and their
cry came up to God because of the bondage.
24 So God heard their groaning, and God
remembered His covenant with Abraham,
with Isaac, and with Jacob. 25 And God
looked upon the children of Israel, and God
acknowledged them.

9. GOD REMEMBERED HIS COVENANT
B. Exodus 6:5-8 And I have also heard the groaning
of the children of Israel whom the Egyptians keep
in bondage, and I have remembered My covenant.
6 Therefore say to the children of Israel: 'I am the
LORD; I will bring you out from under the burdens
of the Egyptians, I will rescue you from their
bondage, and I will redeem you with an
outstretched arm and with great judgments. 7 I will
take you as My people, and I will be your God.
Then you shall know that I am the LORD your God
who brings you out from under the burdens of the
Egyptians. 8 And I will bring you into the land
which I swore to give to Abraham, Isaac, and
Jacob; and I will give it to you as a heritage: I am
the LORD.' “

10. GOD REMEMBERED HANNAH
1 Samuel 1:1-20 Now there was a certain man of
Ramathaim Zophim, of the mountains of Ephraim, and his
name was Elkanah the son of Jeroham, the son of Elihu,
the son of Tohu, the son of Zuph, an Ephraimite. 2 And he
had two wives: the name of one was Hannah, and the
name of the other Peninnah. Peninnah had children, but
Hannah had no children. 3 This man went up from his city
yearly to worship and sacrifice to the LORD of hosts in
Shiloh. Also the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas,
the priests of the LORD, were there. 4 And whenever the
time came for Elkanah to make an offering, he would give
portions to Peninnah his wife and to all her sons and
daughters. 5 But to Hannah he would give a double
portion, for he loved Hannah, although the LORD had
closed her womb. 6 And her rival also provoked her
severely, to make her miserable, because the LORD had
closed her womb. >>>

11. GOD REMEMBERED HANNAH
7 So it was, year by year, when she went up to the house of
the LORD, that she provoked her; therefore she wept and
did not eat. 8 Then Elkanah her husband said to her,
"Hannah, why do you weep? Why do you not eat? And why
is your heart grieved? Am I not better to you than ten
sons?" 9 So Hannah arose after they had finished eating and
drinking in Shiloh. Now Eli the priest was sitting on the seat
by the doorpost of the tabernacle of the LORD. 10 And she
was in bitterness of soul, and prayed to the LORD and wept
in anguish. 11 Then she made a vow and said, "O LORD of
hosts, if You will indeed look on the affliction of Your
maidservant and remember me, and not forget Your
maidservant, but will give Your maidservant a male child,
then I will give him to the LORD all the days of his life, and
no razor shall come upon his head." 12 And it happened, as
she continued praying before the LORD, that Eli watched
her mouth. 13 Now Hannah spoke in her heart; only her lips
moved, but her voice was not heard. Therefore Eli thought
she was drunk. >>>

12. GOD REMEMBERED HANNAH
14 So Eli said to her, "How long will you be drunk? Put
your wine away from you!" 15 And Hannah answered and
said, "No, my lord, I am a woman of sorrowful spirit. I
have drunk neither wine nor intoxicating drink, but have
poured out my soul before the LORD. 16 Do not consider
your maidservant a wicked woman, for out of the
abundance of my complaint and grief I have spoken until
now." 17 Then Eli answered and said, "Go in peace, and
the God of Israel grant your petition which you have
asked of Him." 18 And she said, "Let your maidservant
find favor in your sight." So the woman went her way and
ate, and her face was no longer sad. 19 Then they rose
early in the morning and worshiped before the LORD, and
returned and came to their house at Ramah. And Elkanah
knew Hannah his wife, and the LORD remembered her. 20
So it came to pass in the process of time that Hannah
conceived and bore a son, and called his name Samuel,
saying, "Because I have asked for him from the LORD.“

13. GOD REMEMBERED RACHEL
Genesis 30:1-24 Now when Rachel saw that she bore
Jacob no children, Rachel envied her sister, and said to
Jacob, "Give me children, or else I die!" 2 And Jacob's
anger was aroused against Rachel, and he said, "Am I in
the place of God, who has withheld from you the fruit of
the womb?" 3 So she said, "Here is my maid Bilhah; go in
to her, and she will bear a child on my knees, that I also
may have children by her." 4 Then she gave him Bilhah
her maid as wife, and Jacob went in to her. 5 And Bilhah
conceived and bore Jacob a son. 6 Then Rachel said,
"God has judged my case; and He has also heard my
voice and given me a son." Therefore she called his name
Dan. 7 And Rachel's maid Bilhah conceived again and
bore Jacob a second son. 8 Then Rachel said, "With great
wrestlings I have wrestled with my sister, and indeed I
have prevailed." So she called his name Naphtali. >>>

14. GOD REMEMBERED RACHEL
9 When Leah saw that she had stopped bearing, she took
Zilpah her maid and gave her to Jacob as wife. 10 And
Leah's maid Zilpah bore Jacob a son. 11 Then Leah said,
"A troop comes!" So she called his name Gad. 12 And
Leah's maid Zilpah bore Jacob a second son. 13 Then
Leah said, "I am happy, for the daughters will call me
blessed." So she called his name Asher. 14 Now Reuben
went in the days of wheat harvest and found mandrakes
in the field, and brought them to his mother Leah. Then
Rachel said to Leah, "Please give me some of your son's
mandrakes." 15 But she said to her, "Is it a small matter
that you have taken away my husband? Would you take
away my son's mandrakes also?" And Rachel said,
"Therefore he will lie with you tonight for your son's
mandrakes." 16 When Jacob came out of the field in the
evening, Leah went out to meet him and said, "You must
come in to me, for I have surely hired you with my son's
mandrakes." And he lay with her that night. >>>

15. GOD REMEMBERED RACHEL
17 And God listened to Leah, and she conceived and
bore Jacob a fifth son. 18 Leah said, "God has given
me my wages, because I have given my maid to my
husband." So she called his name Issachar. 19 Then
Leah conceived again and bore Jacob a sixth son. 20
And Leah said, "God has endowed me with a good
endowment; now my husband will dwell with me,
because I have borne him six sons." So she called
his name Zebulun. 21 Afterward she bore a daughter,
and called her name Dinah. 22 Then God remembered
Rachel, and God listened to her and opened her
womb. 23 And she conceived and bore a son, and
said, "God has taken away my reproach." 24 So she
called his name Joseph, and said, "The LORD shall
add to me another son.“

16. GOD REMEMBERS THAT WE ARE DUST
A. Psalm 78:36-39 Nevertheless they flattered
Him with their mouth, And they lied to Him
with their tongue; 37 For their heart was not
steadfast with Him, Nor were they faithful in
His covenant. 38 But He, being full of
compassion, forgave their iniquity, And did
not destroy them. Yes, many a time He turned
His anger away, And did not stir up all His
wrath; 39 For He remembered that they were
but flesh, A breath that passes away and
does not come again.

17. GOD REMEMBERS THAT WE ARE DUST
A.Psalm 103:6-18 The LORD executes righteousness
And justice for all who are oppressed. 7 He made
known His ways to Moses, His acts to the children
of Israel. 8 The LORD is merciful and gracious,
Slow to anger, and abounding in mercy. 9 He will
not always strive with us, Nor will He keep His
anger forever. 10 He has not dealt with us according
to our sins, Nor punished us according to our
iniquities. 11 For as the heavens are high above the
earth, So great is His mercy toward those who fear
Him; 12 As far as the east is from the west, So far
has He removed our transgressions from us. >>>

18. GOD REMEMBERS THAT WE ARE DUST
13 As a father pities his children, So the LORD
pities those who fear Him. 14 For He knows our
frame; He remembers that we are dust. 15 As for
man, his days are like grass; As a flower of the
field, so he flourishes. 16 For the wind passes
over it, and it is gone, And its place remembers
it no more. 17 But the mercy of the LORD is from
everlasting to everlasting On those who fear
Him, And His righteousness to children's
children, 18 To such as keep His covenant, And
to those who remember His commandments to
do them.

19. GOD REMEMBERS OUR ALMS
Acts 10:30-31 So Cornelius said, "Four
days ago I was fasting until this hour;
and at the ninth hour I prayed in my
house, and behold, a man stood before
me in bright clothing, 31 and said,
'Cornelius, your prayer has been heard,
and your alms are remembered in the
sight of God.

20. GOD REMEMBERS INIQUITY
A. Hosea 7:2 They do not consider in their hearts That I
remember all their wickedness; Now their own deeds
have surrounded them; They are before My face.
B. Hosea 9:7-9 The days of punishment have come; The
days of recompense have come. Israel knows! The
prophet is a fool, The spiritual man is insane, Because
of the greatness of your iniquity and great enmity. 8
The watchman of Ephraim is with my God; But the
prophet is a fowler's snare in all his ways-- Enmity in
the house of his God. 9 They are deeply corrupted, As
in the days of Gibeah. He will remember their iniquity;
He will punish their sins.
C. Jeremiah 14:10 Thus says the LORD to this people:
"Thus they have loved to wander; They have not
restrained their feet. Therefore the LORD does not
accept them; He will remember their iniquity now, And
punish their sins.“

21. GOD DOES NOT REMEMBER
THE SINS OF THE RIGHTEOUS
A. Ezekiel 33:13-16 When I say to the righteous that
he shall surely live, but he trusts in his own
righteousness and commits iniquity, none of his
righteous works shall be remembered; but
because of the iniquity that he has committed, he
shall die. 14 Again, when I say to the wicked, 'You
shall surely die,' if he turns from his sin and does
what is lawful and right, 15 if the wicked restores
the pledge, gives back what he has stolen, and
walks in the statutes of life without committing
iniquity, he shall surely live; he shall not die. 16
None of his sins which he has committed shall be
remembered against him; he has done what is
lawful and right; he shall surely live.

22. GOD DOES NOT REMEMBER
THE SINS OF THE RIGHTEOUS
B. Hebrews 8:7-13 For if that first covenant had
been faultless, then no place would have
been sought for a second. 8 Because finding
fault with them, He says: "Behold, the days
are coming, says the LORD, when I will make
a new covenant with the house of Israel and
with the house of Judah-- 9 not according to
the covenant that I made with their fathers in
the day when I took them by the hand to lead
them out of the land of Egypt; because they
did not continue in My covenant, and I
disregarded them, says the LORD. >>>

23. GOD DOES NOT REMEMBER
THE SINS OF THE RIGHTEOUS
10 For this is the covenant that I will make with
the house of Israel after those days, says the
LORD: I will put My laws in their mind and write
them on their hearts; and I will be their God,
and they shall be My people. 11 None of them
shall teach his neighbor, and none his brother,
saying, 'Know the LORD,' for all shall know Me,
from the least of them to the greatest of them. 12
For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness,
and their sins and their lawless deeds I will
remember no more." 13 In that He says, "A new
covenant," He has made the first obsolete. Now
what is becoming obsolete and growing old is
ready to vanish away.

24. GOD DOES NOT REMEMBER
THE SINS OF THE RIGHTEOUS
C. Hebrews 10:11-18 And every priest stands
ministering daily and offering repeatedly the same
sacrifices, which can never take away sins. 12 But
this Man, after He had offered one sacrifice for sins
forever, sat down at the right hand of God, 13 from
that time waiting till His enemies are made His
footstool. 14 For by one offering He has perfected
forever those who are being sanctified. 15 But the
Holy Spirit also witnesses to us; for after He had
said before, 16 "This is the covenant that I will make
with them after those days, says the LORD: I will put
My laws into their hearts, and in their minds I will
write them," 17 then He adds, "Their sins and their
lawless deeds I will remember no more." 18 Now
where there is remission of these, there is no longer
an offering for sin.

25. GOD DOES NOT REMEMBER
THE SINS OF THE RIGHTEOUS
D. Jeremiah 31:33-34 But this is the covenant
that I will make with the house of Israel after
those days, says the LORD: I will put My law
in their minds, and write it on their hearts;
and I will be their God, and they shall be My
people. 34 No more shall every man teach his
neighbor, and every man his brother, saying,
'Know the LORD,' for they all shall know Me,
from the least of them to the greatest of
them, says the LORD. For I will forgive their
iniquity, and their sin I will remember no
more.“

26. THE MEMORY OR YOU?
A.For most of us, the memory of us will
be forgotten after two or three
generations.
B.God will not forget you.
C.Will God remember your sins?
D.Will God remember you because of
your faithfulness?
