God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

Memorizing Scripture is beneficial because it: 1. Helps to renew your mind and change your thought life, establishing permanent change in your entire manner of life and conduct (Joshua 1:8; Psalm 1:2-3). 2. Follows the example of the Lord Jesus Christ (Matthew 4:1-10). 3. Equips you to use Scripture in everyday situations (for example: Acts 2:16-21, 25-28; 3:22-23; 13:40-41, 47). 4. Allows God’s Word to be the foundation of your life (Deuteronomy 6:6-8). 5. Provides guidance (Psalm 119:24, 105). 6. Develops confidence in witnessing (Isaiah 55:11). 7. Establishes a fountain to conquer temptation (for example: Matthew 4:1-10) and to gain victory over sin (Psalm 119:9-11). 8. Becomes an integral part of your prayer life (for example: Acts 4:24-31). 9. Enables you to teach, counsel, encourage, and build up others in the Body of Christ (Colossians 3:16). 10. Provides a basis for meditation On God’s Word (Psalm 119:15-16, 97). 11. Makes the Word of God readily available for comfort (Psalm 119:52). 12. Keeps God’s Word ready to refresh or revive (Psalm 119:93). 13. Provides stability in your spiritual life (Psalm 37:31; 40:8). 14. Gives you the truth so that, at times of need, you are ready to answer others concerning your source of hope (Proverbs 22:17-21; 1 Peter 3:15).
John Broger

For we are not rescuers giving our lives and families to save orphans and widows in need; instead, we are the rescued whose lives have been transformed at our deepest point of need. So now it just makes sense that men and women who have been captivated by the mystery of God's mercy might be compelled to give themselves to the ministry of God's mercy.
