Remember Your Spiritual Landmarks

It’s important to God that we remember. Like in Joshua, Chapter 4, where He instructed Joshua to have the priests erect memorial stones so that they would always have a marker by which to remember God’s miraculous deliverance of them out of Egypt. In Deuteronomy 19:14 God told the people not to forget the landmarks, the stones that would mark their properties in the new Promised Land, and not to move their neighbor’s landmarks.

Physical landmarks are good, but spiritual landmarks of where we’ve met with God in prayer, in church services or alone with Him, where He touched us mightily, where our hearts broke in sweet surrender and we could accept His will in a matter—those are the landmarks we need most for today. For they will give us strength, and build our faith.
