Psalm 46:4
There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God, the holy place where the Most High dwells.
Begin your day by reviewing the first 3 verses from Psalm 46.
Now add on v4. Repeat, repeat, repeat.
Look for moments in your day where your hands are busy but your mind is idle. Grasp the opportunity to redeem the time. You'll be amazed how much scripture you're capable of memorizing this way!
The menacing sea has now changed into a river in the city of God. Has your ocean of grief turned into a life-giving stream? If it hasn't yet, it will. Maybe here on earth, but guaranteed on the New Earth! There IS a river like that - God has promised it in this verse.
Tomorrow will be a review day,
Please join us as we seek to know God by memorizing His Word in context. Convicted and inspired by Janet Pope's His Word in My Heart we are learning to redeem the time by including Scripture memory in our daily routines.
LeRoy Eims on the importance of Scripture memory: "I think two of the master strokes of the devil have been to convince people he doesn't exist, and that Scripture memory is only for children. He remembers the humility of defeat when Jesus Christ, who was tempted in all points like as we are, met him with the Word of God." (What Every Christian Should Know About Growing; p. 26-27)
