Hey Kids!
I am so excited that many of you have taken up the task of learning the books of the Bible! It is an awesome thing to know, because you will read the bible for your entire life. It’s not like something that you read once and you’re done. The more you read the more you will want to read it more. The bible is so rich with history and truth and the power of God.
I have heard from some of you who have quoted the beginning books, the books of the Law, some who know those five as well as the Old Testament history books. One girl has even learned the entire New Testament already!!
The Bible has many promises in it. We are encouraged to read it and to meditate upon it. Psalm 119:11 tells us one good reason to memorize it: “I have hidden Your word in my heart that I might not sin against You.”
Joshua 1:8 says, “Do not let this Book of the Law depart from your mouth; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful.”
Look at the next page where you can find the words to two songs that will help you learn the Old Testament books. I have the songs on cassette tape at home and I am trying to get a couple copies of these songs on CD.
2 Timothy 2:15 instructs us on knowing God’s word. “Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth.“
Think about how much time you spend hearing things other than God’s Word. How much time to you watch TV, listen to music that isn’t godly, read magazines, books or other things besides God’s Word… many of these things may not be bad, but compare them to how much God is influencing you. Each of us need to be reading and learning from God’s Word each day so we can know and be confident in His leading. Get into God’s Word so His Word gets into you!
Once you memorize the books, come see me so I know you’ve done it!
