Reviewing Bible Memory Passages - Part 1
I cannot tell you how much Scripture memorization has helped me this last year and the last few months in particular. It's made a big difference in my Bible study time, in what I take away from studying, in the satisfaction I find in my studying, and especially in my thought life. Memorizing Bible verses has been a game changer for me.
Part of my Scripture memorization this time around has been relearning passages I had memorized years ago. I was encouraged to see how quickly I was able to relearn them! Yet even as I relearned them and added them to my "rolodex of Scripture" I wondered how I was going to keep them all in my head. My brain is like Swiss cheese...it's full of holes (so things seem to fall out as fast as I put them in my brain). So, I did some digging on ideas for reviewing the Bible verses you've memorized, and I found this gem with John Piper...
After watching this I found that I stressed less about remembering every verse. Knowing how I work, that itself will be a help.
I'm also putting together a list of verses that I want to have ready and available on the tip of my tongue, to pull out and use at any time. These passages are ones that I feel will help me where I am now and with what I see my ministry is.
So tell me, what is one Scripture passage that you want ready in your mind?
LOVE this idea of rememorizing! My biggest struggle is remembering the reference (even the book LOL). This is a great encouragement to me. Thanks, hon!
