Here's the truth.
In Luke 4:1-13, Jesus was tempted by the devil several times. And for each temptation Jesus replied back with a memorized scripture. It's the best example for us how powerful it can be if we only keep God's word in our hearts AND mind.
In this modern day some of our Christian leaders put emphasis on scripture memorization.
Here are some of things they said:
"I am convinced that one of the greatest things we can do is to memorize Scripture." - Billy Graham
"I know of no other single practice in the Christian life more rewarding, practically speaking, than memorizing Scripture...No other single exercise pays greater spiritual dividends! Your prayer life will be strengthened. Your witnessing will be sharper and much more effective. Your attitudes and outlook will begin to change. Your mind will become alert and observant. Your confidence and assurance will be enhanced. Your faith will be solidified." - Chuck Swindoll
"Scripture memory is a habit that most Christians have never even tried, but getting your members to hide God's word in their hearts brings personal revival and renewal" - Rick Warren
There's no doubt that building the habit of memorizing God's word can change your life.
