Some things God remembers:
Gen.8[1]
And God remembered Noah, and every living
thing, and all the cattle that was with him in the ark:
and
God made a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters asswaged;
[2] The fountains also of the deep and the windows of
heaven were stopped, and the rain from heaven was restrained;
[3] And the waters returned from off the earth
continually: and after the end of the hundred and fifty days the waters were
abated.
[4] And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the
seventeenth day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat.
[5] And the waters decreased continually until the tenth
month: in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, were the tops of the
mountains seen.
Gen.9[11]
And
I will establish my covenant with you; neither shall all flesh be cut off any
more by the waters of a flood; neither shall there any more be a flood to destroy the earth.
[12] And God said, This is the token of the covenant
which I make between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for
perpetual generations:
[13] I do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a
token of a covenant between me and the earth.
[14] And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over
the earth, that the bow shall be seen in the cloud:
[15] And I will remember
my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of
all flesh; and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh.
[16] And the bow shall be in the cloud; and I will look upon
it, that I may remember the everlasting
covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is upon the
earth.
[17] And God said unto Noah, This is the token of the covenant, which I have established
between me and all flesh that is upon the earth.
Gen.30[22]
And God remembered Rachel, and God hearkened
to her, and opened her womb.
Exod.2[23]
And it came to pass in process of time, that the
king of Egypt died: and the children of Israel sighed by reason of the bondage,
and they cried, and their cry came up unto God by reason of the bondage.
[24]
And God heard their groaning, and God remembered
his covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob.
[25] And God looked upon
the children of Israel, and God had respect unto them.
Exod.6[5]
And
I have also heard the groaning of the children of Israel, whom the Egyptians
keep in bondage; and I have remembered my
covenant.
[6] Wherefore say unto
the children of Israel, I am Yehovah,
and I will bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians, and I will
rid you out of their bondage, and I will redeem you with a stretched out arm,
and with great judgments:
[7] And I will take you to me for a people, and I will
be to you a God: and ye shall know that
I am Yehovah your God,
which bringeth you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians.
[8] And I will bring you
in unto the land, concerning the which I
did swear to give it to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob; and I will give it to
you for an heritage: I am Yehovah.
Exod.13[3]
And
Moses said unto the people, Remember this
day, in which ye came out from Egypt, out of the house of bondage;
for
by strength of hand Yehovah brought you out from this place: there
shall no leavened bread be eaten.
[4] This day came ye out
in the month Abib / ha Aviv.
What
does Yehovah your God require of you?
Keep
his commandments and ordinances
10 commandments are in Exodus 20 and Deut. 5
The Ordinances are in Lev. 18-20 along with their
judgments
The
Food Laws are in Lev. 11
The appointed Days and Feasts (Holy days) are in
Lev. 23
The
10 Commandments
Exodus 20:
[1] And God spoke all these words, saying,
[2] I am Yehovah your God, which have brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of
bondage.
#1. You
shall have no other gods before me.
#2. You shall not make unto you any graven image,
or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth
beneath, or that is in the water under the earth:
You shall not bow down yourself to them, nor serve
them: for I Yehovah your God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the
fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that
hate me;
And showing mercy unto thousands of them that
love me, and keep my commandments.
#3. You shall not take the name of Yehovah your God in vain; for
Yehovah will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.
#4. Remember the sabbath
day, to keep it holy.
Six days shally you labour, and do all your work:
But the seventh day is the sabbath of Yehovah your God: in it You shall not do
any work, You, nor your son, nor your daughter, your manservant, nor your
maidservant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger that is within your gates.
For in six days Yehovah made heaven and earth, the
sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore Yehovah
blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.
#5. Honour your father and your mother: that your
days may be long upon the land which Yehovah your God giveth you.
#6. You shall not kill.
#7. You shall not commit
adultery.
#8. You
shall not steal.
#9. You shall not bear
false witness against your neighbour.
#10. You shall not covet your neighbour's house, You
shall not covet your neighbour's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant,
nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is your neighbour's.
The Ordinances of God:
There are many ordinances in Lev 18-20
but we will just look at a few samples
Lev 18:[5]
You shall therefore keep my statutes, and my
judgments: which if a man do, he shall live in them:
I am Yehovah
[6] None of you shall approach to any that is near of
kin to him, to uncover their nakedness:
I am Yehovah
[22] You shall not lie with mankind, as with
womankind: it is abomination.
Lev 19[15]
You shall do no unrighteousness in judgment: You shall
not respect the person of the poor, nor honour the person of the mighty: but in
righteousness shall you judge your neighbour.
[16] You shall not go up and down as a talebearer among your people:
[17] You shall not hate your brother in thine heart:
You shall in any wise rebuke your neighbour, and not suffer (allow) sin upon
him.
[18] You shall not avenge, nor bear any grudge against
the children of your people, but You shall love your neighbour as yourself:
I am Yehovah.
[19] You shall keep my statutes.
You shall not let your cattle gender with a diverse
kind: You shall not sow your field with mingled seed: neither shall a garment
mingled of linen and woollen come upon you.
Lev. 20[13]
You shall not defraud your neighbour, neither rob him:
the wages of him that is hired shall not abide with you all night until the
morning.
[14] You shall not curse the deaf, nor put a
stumblingblock before the blind, but shall fear your God:
I am Yehovah.
Food Laws:
Lev 11:[1]
And Yehovah spake unto Moses and to Aaron, saying unto
them,
[2] Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, These are the beasts which ye
shall eat among all the beasts that are on the earth.
[3] Whatsoever parteth the hoof, and is clovenfooted,
and cheweth the cud, among the beasts, that shall ye eat.
[9] These shall ye eat of all that are in the waters:
whatsoever hath fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the rivers,
them shall ye eat.
Also describes what Fowls and can’t eat
and creeping things you can’t eat.
Lev 20:[25]
You
shall therefore put difference between clean beasts and unclean, and between
unclean fowls and clean: and ye shall not make
your souls abominable by beast, or by fowl, or by any manner of living
thing that creepeth on the ground, which I have separated from you as unclean.
Feasts
and Appointed Days:
[2] Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, Concerning the feasts
of Yehovah, which ye shall proclaim to be holy convocations,
even these are My Feasts.
[3] Six days shall work be done: but the seventh day is the sabbath of rest, an
holy convocation; ye shall do no work therein: it is the sabbath of Yehovah in
all your dwellings.
[4] These are the feasts of Yehovah, even holy
convocations, which you shall proclaim in their seasons.

[15]
Only Yehovah had a delight in your fathers to love them, and he chose their seed
after them, even you above all people, as it is this day.
