I heard this for the first time on my mission trip to Alaska three years ago. I could make this One Minute Ministry an hour on this topic. Don’t waste, but cherish any time you have with another believer. The world is trying to drag you down the other 95% of the time, so please cherish and honor this time together. Use this time to discuss the burdens God has placed on your heart, what He is doing in your life, what He has placed before you. It is a big deal to God. So much he writes it in a special place, a Book of Remembrance.
Book of Remembrance
Malachi 3: 16-17 Then those who feared the Lord spoke to one another, And the Lord listened and heard them; So a book of remembrance was written before Him For those who fear the Lord And who meditate on His name. “They shall be Mine,” says the Lord of hosts, “On the day that I make them My jewels. And I will spare them As a man spares his own son who serves him.”
We live in an evil world. There is so much to talk about, so much to gossip about, so much idle blabber that steers us away from God. Do we profess Christ, but from our lips never speak His Holy name, or speak with others about the burdens He has put on our hearts. What if when we discussed these things God placed on our hearts with another believer that we knew God smiled and wrote it down? He remembers all our thoughts, all our spoken words, both good and bad, but He places the things we speak of Him in a special place, a written book.
When God places a burden on your heart, share it with another believer. He may have placed that same burden on theirs, and Gods divine plan is at work in you. When you are with other believers, don’t discuss all the earthly things around you that steer your eyes away from Him. Cherish that time together and discuss what God is doing in your lives, and praise His Holy name knowing that everything you discuss together is being written down by the hand of God.
