ANNOUNCEMENTS:
COT: I wished I had an encouraging word to share today, but a message was recently shared that I wanted to pass along. Do you memorize Bible scripture? It has been a very long time since I was intentional about this. I think that sometimes we take for granted the resources we have access to today: our Bible apps on our phones, our ministers, etc. These are important and can be helpful, but we can rely on these heavily, or at least I tend to do so. We see examples of people being commended for studying, like the noble Bereans in Acts 17:10-11. The Bereans verified what Paul taught them to confirm that it was in alignment with God’s word. Memorizing scripture can help us quickly recall the truth in God’s word. It can keep us from sinning because we can recall the commands of God. We also need to be cautious about trusting without verifying what we are taught from scripture. Paul cautions the elders in Ephesus:
Acts 20:29-32 NASB1995
[29] I know that after my departure savage wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock; [30] and from among your own selves men will arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away the disciples after them. [31] Therefore be on the alert, remembering that night and day for a period of three years I did not cease to admonish each one with tears. [32] And now I commend you to God and to the word of His grace, which is able to build you up and to give you the inheritance among all those who are sanctified.
The wolves are disguised as sheep within the flock.
Matthew 7:15 NASB1995
[15] “Beware of the false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves.
Study your Bibles frequently and commit its words to memory.
