Would you like to...
- Conform to the image of Christ?
- Experience consistent victory over sin in your life?
- Recognize and defeat the attacks of Satan?
- Comfort and counsel people you love using Scripture?
- Successfully communicate your faith to unbelievers?
- Overcome fear and worry?
All of these and more are yours when you make Scripture memorization a prime focus of your life. Note what these two giants of the faith said about this spiritual discipline:
“If I had to choose between all the disciplines of the spiritual life, I would choose Bible memorization, because it is a fundamental way of filling our minds with what it needs.” –Dallas Willard
“I know of no other single practice in the Christian life more rewarding, practically speaking, than memorizing Scripture. . . . No other single exercise pays greater spiritual dividends!”–Chuck Swindoll
Maybe you’ve tried but didn’t succeed too well. Maybe you have decided you just can’t memorize. Maybe you think you’re too old or too busy—or whatever other excuse you may have. Those are all lies from your enemy to keep you from the great blessing of Scripture memorization.
But how? That’s where The Hidden Word can help you.
