Someday the only Word of God you may have is what you know by heart. That’s why it is so important to memorize His Word faithfully, that you may be kept by the power of God and comforted in difficult times, now and in the future. How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord, Is laid for your faith in His excellent Word! What more can He say than to you He hath said, You, who for refuge to Jesus have fled? Fear not, I am with thee, O be not dismayed, For I am thy God and will still give thee aid; I’ll strengthen thee and help thee, and cause thee to stand Upheld by My righteous omnipotent hand. —John Rippon, A Selection of Hymns from the Best Authors, 1787 That’s an old hymn, and a wonderful one for these Last Days when you really need to stand on the firm foundation of His Word. “Lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world” (Matthew 28:20 KJV). He’s with you in His Word, and His Word is with you, and you can stand firmly on this as a foundation that cannot fail, for He’s promised to keep you (Isaiah 41:10; 43:2). — Psalm 119:18 ESV - Open my eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of your law. 1 Peter 2:2 ESV - Like newborn infants, long for the pure spiritual milk, that by it you may grow up into salvation. Psalm 119:11 ESV - I have stored up your word in my heart, that I might not sin against you.
