Remember Lot’s wife.
Luke 17:32

1. To remember Lot’s wife is to remember that Lot’s
wife had a great opportunity to be saved.
Lot and his wife lived in Sodom. Lot’s wife had the
opportunity to avoid death and to live with a righteous man.
Salvation came to the house of Lot that day just as salvation is
coming to your house today.
And when the morning arose, then the angels hastened
Lot, saying, Arise, take thy wife, and thy two daughters,
which are here; lest thou be consumed in the iniquity of
the city.
And while he lingered, the men laid hold upon his hand,
and upon the hand of his wife, and upon the hand of his
two daughters; the Lord being merciful unto him: and
they brought him forth, and set him without the city.
Genesis 19:15-16

And delivered righteous Lot, who was oppressed by the
filthy conduct of the wicked;
2 Peter 2:7 (NKJV)

2. To remember Lot’s wife is to remember how God has
sent people to help you and to minister to you.
God sent angels to help Lot and his wife to come out of
Sodom.
And there came two angels to Sodom at even; and Lot
sat in the gate of Sodom: and Lot seeing them rose up to
meet them; and he bowed himself with his face toward the
ground;
Genesis 19:1
I HAVE SENT ALSO UNTO YOU ALL MY SERVANTS
THE PROPHETS, rising up early and sending them,
saying, Return ye now every man from his evil way, and
amend your doings, and go not after other gods to serve
them, and ye shall dwell in the land which I have given to
you and to your fathers: but ye have not inclined your ear,
nor hearkened unto me.
Jeremiah 35:15

3. To remember Lot’s wife is to remember that you must
forsake the sins of this world.
Lot’s wife did not forsake Sodom. The sins of Sodom were
pride, fullness of bread and idleness. That is why God sent
judgment to Sodom.
Behold, this was THE INIQUITY OF THY SISTER
SODOM, pride, fulness of bread, and abundance of
idleness was in her and in her daughters, neither did she
strengthen the hand of the poor and needy. And they were
haughty, and committed abomination before me: therefore
I took them away as I saw good.
Ezekiel 16:49-50

4. To remember Lot’s wife is to remember that you will
lose your salvation if you love this present world.
Sodom represents the world and Lot’s wife could not help
turning back to look at what she loved. Her heart was in Sodom
that is why she looked back. To remember Lot’s wife is to
remember not to give your heart to this world.
LOVE NOT THE WORLD, neither the things that are in
the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father
is not in him.
1 John 2:15
For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared
to all men, teaching us that, denying ungodliness and
worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and
godly, in this present world;
Titus 2:11-12

5. To remember Lot’s wife is to remember that if you
turn back you will be destroyed. Anyone who rejects
God is destroyed.
But his wife looked back from behind him, and she became
a pillar of salt.
Genesis 19:26
But WE ARE NOT OF THEM WHO DRAW BACK
UNTO PERDITION; but of them that believe to the saving
of the soul.

Hebrews 10:39

Because I have called, and ye refused; I have stretched out
my hand, and no man regarded; but ye have set at nought
all my counsel, and would none of my reproof:
I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your
fear cometh;
Proverbs 1:24-26
