*Theme: Remember Your God*
*Scripture Verse:*
Deuteronomy 8:7-11,17-19
[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,
[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.

*Reflection:*
It's such a good thing to be blessed of God. It is so easy for us to ask for the whole world. I remember praying and ask God not to give me too much money because surely I would forget him. Deuteronomy is telling the Israelites not to forget who God is and it is God who blesses in material things but moreso power to gain wealth. The abilities we all possess are God given and we are to use them for the extension of our Fathers Kingdom. We are to give thanks in everything we do. We are not only to remember God in the Bad times but moreso in the good things. I am guilty of this, I have been blessed but so often forget to be grateful, just like a spoilt child. Brethren in Christ Let us remember our God.
Prayer point. Heavenly Father, we are so grateful for your blessings that you bestow upon us. We ask you never to leave our side, Grant us your peace and strength as we walk with you in Jesus Name I pray. Amen
