Lesson 154 - BITS OF WISDOM FROM AN OLD WARRIOR (PART 8)
By Frank Eiklor and the Shalom Team
Memorizing Important Scriptures—continued
If you love the Lord, you know you are at war. Satan does not fear you or your feeble words. He does fear Jesus Christ and the words of the Almighty. Now Christ lives in you. You have His authority over the powers of darkness. So you must also let His Word live in you so that you can use that authority in resisting and conquering the enemy.
When you memorize verses of scripture—God’s very Word—you are putting His mind and will for you into your own mind. You are thinking as Jesus wants you to think. I love to memorize entire chapters and books of the Bible. Right now I’m sharing around 70 basic verses that you need to hide in your heart as your basic foundation for successful victorious living. This is Part 8 of our battle plan.
27) Christ has saved you by His grace. He even gave you the faith to believe.
Ephesians 2:8-9 “For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God,
not of works, lest anyone should boast."
28) This is a great verse to remember to put on the armor of God daily so that you can stand against all temptations
of the devil.
Ephesians 6:11 "Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil."
29) Here is God’s promise to guard and keep you to the very end of life.
Philippians 1:6 “Being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until
the day of Jesus Christ."
30) This should be our only purpose in life.
Philippians 1:21 "For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain."
31) No matter the circumstances, Christ promises you His joy.
Philippians 4:4 "Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice!"
32) Here is how to expel fear and worry from your life and experience God's peace.
Philippians 4:6-7 "Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayers and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your
requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts
and minds through Christ Jesus."
33) When God says you can, don't let anyone or anything tell you that you can't—including memorizing scriptures!
Philippians 4:13 "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."
