*THE RESTORER'S DAILY GUIDE*
DATE: THURSDAY 29TH MAY 2025
THEME: *REMEMBER YOUR MAKER NOW!* [PART TWO]
MEMORIZE
Deuteronomy 8:18
[18]But you shall [earnestly] remember the Lord your God, for it is He Who gives you power to get wealth, that He may establish His covenant which He swore to your fathers, as it is this day.
READ
Deuteronomy 8:7-20
[7]For the Lord your God is bringing you into a good land, a land of brooks of water, of fountains and springs, flowing forth in valleys and hills;
[8]A land of wheat and barley, and vines and fig trees and pomegranates, a land of olive trees and honey;
[9]A land in which you shall eat food without shortage and lack nothing in it; a land whose stones are iron and out of whose hills you can dig copper.
[10]When you have eaten and are full, then you shall bless the Lord your God for all the good land which He has given you.
[11]Beware that you do not forget the Lord your God by not keeping His commandments, His precepts, and His statutes which I command you today,
[12]Lest when you have eaten and are full, and have built goodly houses and live in them,
[13]And when your herds and flocks multiply and your silver and gold is multiplied and all you have is multiplied,
[14]Then your [minds and] hearts be lifted up, and you forget the Lord your God, Who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage,
[15]Who led you through the great and terrible wilderness, with its fiery serpents and scorpions and thirsty ground where there was no water, but Who brought you forth water out of the flinty rock,
[16]Who fed you in the wilderness with manna, which your fathers did not know, that He might humble you and test you, to do you good in the end.
[17]And beware lest you say in your [mind and] heart, My power and the might of my hand have gotten me this wealth.
[18]But you shall [earnestly] remember the Lord your God, for it is He Who gives you power to get wealth, that He may establish His covenant which He swore to your fathers, as it is this day.
[19]And if you forget the Lord your God and walk after other gods and serve them and worship them, I testify against you this day that you shall surely perish.
[20]Like the nations which the Lord makes to perish before you, so shall you perish, because you would not obey the voice of the Lord your God.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
*It takes being thoughtful to be thankful*
MESSAGE
The Psalmist declares to his soul to bless the LORD and not to forget all of God's benefits towards him.
Psalms 103:2 "Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:"
The tendency to forget God is in every human. It is natural to forget God's blessings, benefits, and kindnesses towards us as individuals.
There are at least three areas we need to guard against, being forgetful; because forgetfulness in these areas is tantamount to forgetting the LORD.
1. The acts of God in our lives. The children of Israel were guilty of this sin as we are today in our busy world. Psalms 106:13
"They soon forgat his works; they waited not for his counsel:"
Their numerous acts of ingratitude, as shown in their murmuring and complaints, were not unconnected with their inability to remember the many acts of God in their lives and midst.
It is ingratitude to forget all of God's acts in our lives.
Those who forget God's acts or work in their lives are prone to ingratitude because it takes being thoughtful to be thankful.
2. The power to get wealth. Today's memory verse shows clearly that it is very possible to become rich or wealthy and forget how it truly happened. It is easy to attribute one's success to every other indices apart from the hand of God that actually makes men wealthy. We must remember that it is the blessing of the LORD that makes us wealthy and not by our own power or strength. We must remember the LORD in this regard by always honoring Him with a portion of our wealth to sustain the flow of God's grace for wealth in our lives continually.
3. God's purpose for blessing us with wealth.
It is extremely important to always keep in mind God's purpose for blessing us with wealth. Individuals who forget God's purpose for making them wealthy soon stalemate and dry up with time.
We must remember that He made us wealthy to advance His kingdom on earth, especially to win souls.
So, beloved ask yourself today, are you truly using the blessing of the LORD in your custody for the purpose for which you were blessed or have you turned them away for personal aggrandisement? Think about these things and make amendments quickly.
Remember, we shall all stand before the judgement seat of Christ Jesus to give account of what we did with His investments in our lives...
God bless and keep you always.
Shalom, maranatha!

HYMN
Blessed assurance — Jesus is mine !
Oh, what a foretaste of glory divine !
Heir of salvation, purchase of God ;
Born of His Spirit, washed in His blood.
This is my story, this is my song,
Praising my Saviour all the day long ;
This is my story, this is my song,
Praising my Saviour all the day long.
2
Perfect submission, perfect delight,
Visions of rapture burst on my sight ;
Angels descending, bring from above
Echoes of mercy, whispers of love.
3
Perfect submission, all is at rest,
I in my Saviour am happy and blest ;
Watching and waiting, looking above,
Filled with His goodness, lost in His love.
