just curious how this challenge is 3 years later. Steve
I am so encouraged to see the progress we are making together as we hide God's Word in our hearts. I hope you are finding, as I am, that Scripture is coming to your mind when you need to give or receive encouragement. Praise the Lord!
Hello folks, we are now one month into the 2018 Scripture Memorization Challenge, and you are doing amazing. So far, we have 46 people using the Scripture Typer app, and 24 doing it old school, for a total of 70 people participating! While I don't know how the old school members are doing, I am pleased to report that so far on Scripture Typer our group has memorized over 1,000 verses in one month! I have also already given away 5 of the 10 free PRO licence upgrades to people who have memorized at least 50 verses. Of course, the real reward isn't the free upgrade, it's the fact that you are hiding God's Word in your heart and getting to know Jesus better as a result. Blessings as together we continue in this journey.
Wow, this group is doing fantastic! I just want to remind you that this program is free up until you hit the 50 verses mark. After that, you have to upgrade to the PRO version (which costs under $10). However, I am giving away free PRO version upgrades to the first 10 people to reach the 50 verse mark. I just wanted to let you know in advance so you didn't purchase it before you received your free gift. Keep up the great work everyone.
Happy New Year everyone. One of the passages we will be memorizing this year is also my prayer for everyone in this group. It is from Ephesians 1:17-21 (NIV2011), and it says:
17 I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better.
18 I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in his holy people,
19 and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is the same as the mighty strength
20 he exerted when he raised Christ from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms,
21 far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every name that is invoked, not only in the present age but also in the one to come.
Blessings everyone, from Pastor Mike Smart.
