MEMORIZING GOD’S WORD

Job 22:22 - Even with the Bible being as prevalent as it is, you might not always have it handy in a time of need. If you have memorized a portion of the Word of God, however, you will always have those passages handy to meditate upon, draw meaning from, and live out. This is why the Bible itself recognizes the importance of Scripture memorization, noting the following benefits:

a. It keeps us from sinning (Ps. 119:11).

b. It comforts us in times of trouble (Ps. 119:52, 92).

c. It fixes the mind upon God (Ps. 43:3).

d. It provides daily sustenance for the spiritual life (Deut. 8:3).

e. It provides continual and ready guidance in all the situations of life (Prov. 6:20–23).

f. It provides the basis for formal and informal instruction of our children (Deut. 6:6–7).
