“Remember”

Todd Misfeldt

Old Testament reading: Numbers 15:37‐41 (NIV) 

37 The Lord said to Moses, 38 “Speak to the Israelites and say to them: ‘Throughout the generations to come you are to make tassels on the corners of your garments, with a blue cord on each tassel.  39 You will have these tassels to look at and so you will remember all the commands of the Lord, that you may obey them and not prostitute yourselves by chasing after the lusts of your own hearts and eyes.  40 Then you will remember to obey all my commands and will be consecrated to your God.  41 I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt to be your God.  I am the Lord your God.’ ” 

New Testament reading: Revelation 3:1‐3 (NIV) 

1 “To the angel of the church in Sardis write: 

These are the words of him who holds the seven spirits of God and the seven stars.  I know your deeds; you have a reputation of being alive, but you are dead.  2 Wake up!  Strengthen what remains and is about to die, for I have found your deeds unfinished in the sight of my God.  3 Remember, therefore, what you have received and heard; hold it fast, and repent.  But if you do not wake up, I will come like a thief, and you will not know at what time I will come to you.
