1/15/18 - Scripture Challenge

1/15/2018

I wish that I could sit down with each of you 1:1 and talk about what this last 2 weeks looked like. Did you focus on memorization or did you struggle? Both are equally possible. How much - beyond the selecting the Scripture - did you invest in memorization?

In case you missed it, my first suggestion on the selection of Scripture is to make sure you write it in several locations: I used my bathroom mirror, the "throne" room, a post it in my car (though I will use a different post it note mine was too hard to read) and in my planner.

The other suggestion I made was to record yourself on your phone & set a time that you would listen to it and as it plays, say it with yourself. This becomes very helpful as we continue to memorize more verses.

Memorization can be daunting for many people & I am asking you to first, ask Holy Spirit to help, that's why He is in us! Second, ask me for help - I have developed many tools & methods that just maybe one of them would help you. The picture that I have featured is something I use, first because it's visual & second, the time I invest in selecting the pictures actually gives me a huge leap in memorization. My pictures won't work for you, but I can teach you how to do this & I would LOVE to host a free class sometime if ANY of you are interested.

Here is my January 15, 2018 Selection:
Proverbs 4:25-26, AMP
"Let your eyes look directly ahead [toward the path of moral courage]
And let your gaze be fixed straight in front of you [toward the path of integrity]
Consider well and watch carefully the path of your feet,
And all your ways will be steadfast and sure."

Lets see your post!!!
P.S. I will be Announcing the winner of the Journal Bible, Vera Bradley Cover & Bookmark!!!!

"And it is impossible to please God without faith. Anyone who wants to come to him must believe that God exists and that he rewards those who sincerely seek him.: Hebrews 11:6 NLT

But He said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore, I will boast all the more gladly about my weakness, so that Christ's power may rest on me. 2 Corinthians 12:9 NIV

I'm copying this one. Was having trouble deciding on a verse this week and this one really stood out to me. Thanks for the idea! :-)

Romans 8: 38-39 KING JAMES
For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

“Therefore, since we have been justified [that is, acquitted of sin, declared blameless before God] by faith, [let us grasp the fact that] we have peace with God [and the joy of reconciliation with Him] through our Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed). Through Him we also have access by faith into this [remarkable state of] grace in which we [firmly and safely and securely] stand. Let us rejoice in our hope and the confident assurance of [experiencing and enjoying] the glory of [our great] God [the manifestation of His excellence and power].” Romans 5:1-2, AMP

Matthew 7:1-2&5 NIV
Do not judge or You too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.

Blessed is the one who preservers under trial, because having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him.

With the events in my life right now, going to the celebration of life/memorial for my MIL, meeting relatives who are so far from God this verse has consumed me.

"My brothers and sisters, if anyone among you strays from the truth and falls into error and [another] one turns him back [to God], let the [latter] one know that the one who has turned a sinner from the error of his way will save that one’s soul from death and cover a multitude of sins [that is, obtain the pardon of the many sins committed by the one who has been restored].
James 5:19-20

nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers,
nor things present, nor things to come,
nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature,
shall be able to separate us from the love of God,
which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. ~

Therefore as you have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, having been firmly rooted and now being built up in Him and established in your faith, just as you were instructed, and overflowing with gratitude. Colossians 2: 6-7 (NASB)

Is this the kind of fast I have chosen, only a day for people to humble themselves? Is it only for bowing one’s head like a reed and lying in sack cloth and ashes? Is this what you call a fast, a day acceptable to the Lord?
Isaiah 58:5

John 14: 1-3 King James
Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you I will come again, and receive you unto myself: that where I am there ye be also.
