Today, take some time to apply what you have learned about discipline this week by memorizing scripture. Remember that while it isn’t always fun or easy, it is worth it (Hebrews 12:11).
Challenge yourself to commit these verses to memory.
Ephesians 3:16-17
16 I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will empower you with inner strength through his Spirit. 17 Then Christ will make his home in your hearts as you trust in him. Your roots will grow down into God’s love and keep you strong.
Questions:
Who can help you in this journey? Is there someone who will memorize it along with you, who will hold you accountable, and to whom you can recite it?
Next Steps:
Write the memory verse out each day. Set an alarm in your phone and recite it to yourself.
Challenge yourself to have it memorized by the end of our Stronger Than Stress series.
Prayer:
Thank you, Lord, for the reminder that while discipline is painful in the moment, the harvest is worth it. Help me to remain strong and persevere. Grant me your peace and remind me of your love. In Jesus’ name, amen.
