WEEK 10 – Scripture Memory
This week we’re talking about “Scripture Memory.”
The Bible is AB-SSOLUTELY life itself.
God’s words. Breathed straight from His mouth & heart to ours.
He SPEAKS to us through His Word.
He gives us life & shows us the way to life, through His Word, through Scripture.
The biggest things that I could say about Scripture memory is really said through Scripture itself, so I’ll just put some Scriptures here that really say it better than I could.
2 TIMOTHY 3:16-17
“All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.”
ROMANS 15:4
“For everything that was written in the past was written to teach us, so that through the endurance taught in the Scriptures and the encouragement they provide we might have hope.”
JOSHUA 1:8
“Keep this Book of the Law always on your lips; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful.”
HEBREWS 4:12
“For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.”
PROVERBS 4:20-22
“My son, pay attention to what I say; turn your ear to my words. Do not let them out of your sight, keep them within your heart; for they are life to those who find them and health to one’s whole body.”
PROVERBS 22:17-18
“Pay attention and turn your ear to the sayings of the wise; apply your heart to what I teach, for it is pleasing when you keep them in your heart and have all of them ready on your lips.”
DEUTERONOMY 6:6-9
These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. Tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. Write them on the door frames of your houses and on your gates.
If I would add anything at all, I would say that God totally uses the Scriptures you have committed to memory. He will stir them up & bring them up in your Spirit in specific crucial moments in your life.
He will remind you of a Scripture right when you’re talking to someone who needs that word.
He’ll remind YOU when you need it.
And it is SO helpful to know where it is in Scripture, so that you can go right to it, or take someone right to it, or just write down the verse reference for them to look up later, whatever.
But essentially then principle is this… you prepare for battle, before the battle.
So intentionally train your heart and mind in Scripture memory… and one day when the battle comes, you’ll be ready!
Of course, head to our Scripture Memory Program & spend some time there 🙂
QUESTIONS TO ASK YOURSELF
- What are some of my favorite Scriptures that mean the most to me?
- Make a list & start memorizing them 🙂
SCRIPTURE
Listed above this time 🙂
QUOTES
“It is as we ourselves chew on Scripture, meditate upon it, so that we digest it and assimilate it to our hearts and minds. Then we are prepared to freshly communicate it to others. Otherwise we are serving up stale food. There is a difference!…Lord, when I make time to chew on Your Word, You open up to me fresh insights. I am taught and You teach others through me.”—A.W. Tozer
WEEKLY FOCUS
This week, read through each one of these Scriptures each morning.
Think about just how valuable it is to commit Scripture to memory & to get it down deep into your heart & spirit.
Ask God if there are any areas you need to surrender or change in order to spend more time in for Scripture Memory.
Let this theme guide your God time all week, and even your thoughts and conversation with Him through out your days, all week long.
Let Him speak to you about this idea of SCRIPTURE MEMORY, and see what He says.
We’d love to hear your feedback, so hop into the devos conversation thread in SLACK & we’re excited to see what the Lord speaks to you this week.
BLESSINGS!
