6 Techniques to Quickly Memorize Scripture
“Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee”
— Psalms 119:11
The greatest weapon and resource we have as believers is found in the word of God. The Bible tells us that “All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works” 2 Timothy 3:16–17
Even Jesus, when he was tempted by the devil relied on the word of God as a mighty weapon to combat every temptation. Knowing the scriptures all he had to say to thwart off all of Satan's schemes was respond with a simple yet powerful blow of “IT IS WRITTEN…” forcing the devil to turn away and retreat.
Like Christ, we too should have the word of God hidden in our hearts and at the ready in times of trouble, temptation, confusion, or when we need encouragement, comfort, hope, and direction.
Here I have listed 6 techniques you can use to quickly memorize scripture and hide Gods word in your heart.
