Scripture Memory Challenge: Week 2

Congratulations on completing your first week of the Glory Days Scripture Memory Challenge. You're off to a great start with Joshua 1:9.

Let's get started on week two!

All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work. - 2 Timothy 3:16-17

This week's verse is a great reminder that Scripture is powerful and useful in every situation.

If you desire some Glory Days, engage with the Bible. Meditate on it day and night. Think and rethink about God’s Word. Let it be your guide. Make it your go-to book for questions. Let it be the ultimate authority in your life.

Don’t chart your course according to the opinions of people or suggestions of culture. If you do, you will make the mistake that the farmer’s son made. The father sent the boy to prepare a field, reminding him to till straight lines. “Select an object on the far side of the field, and plow straight at it.”

Later when the father checked on the boy’s progress, there wasn’t a straight furrow to be found. Every row was uneven and wavy. “I thought I told you to select an object and plow toward it,” the dad said.

“I did,” the boy answered, “but the rabbit kept hopping.”

A straight line, like a good life, requires an unmoving target. Set your sights on the unchanging principles of God. Let God’s Word be the authoritative word in your world.
