Weekly Update

Hey, everyone!

  This week we'll be memorizing Romans 8:6-10:


      6 For the mind set on the flesh is death, but the mind set on the Spirit is life and peace,  

     7 because the mind set on the flesh is hostile toward God; for it does not subject itself to the law of God, for it is not even able to do so,  

     8 and those who are in the flesh cannot please God.  

    9 However, you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. But if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Him.  

    10                   ^IF If Christ is in you, though the body is dead because of sin, yet the spirit is alive because of righteousness.  


     I hope that you all have a great week! :)    ~Emily

Good Morning

Hey, ya'll!  Sorry we've been so tardy about starting up the weekly memorization again...  this week we're going to start Romans 8.

1 Therefore there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.

2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and of death.

3 For what the Law could not do, weak as it was through the flesh, God did: sending His own Song in the likeness of sinful flesh and as an offering for sin, He condemned sin in the flesh,

4 so that the requirement of the Law might be fulfilled in us, who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.

5 For those who are according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who are according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.

Romans 8:1-5

Have a lovely Wednesday!  :o)

Happy Day!

Hello! I'm very much beginning to feel that Spring has finally arrived! The sun is shining and I can't help but see God's beautiful creation everywhere I look today!

This week we're going to finish up Deuteronomy with chapter 16-34, and memorize the next 5 verses of Titus.

5 For this reason I left you in Crete, that you would set in order what remains and appoint elders in every city as I directed you,

6 namely, if any man is above reproach, the husband of one wife, having children who believe, not accused of dissipation or rebellion.

7 For the overseer must be above reproach as God's steward, not self-willed, not quick-tempered, not addicted to wine, not pugnacious, not fond of sordid gain,

8 but hospitable, loving what is good, sensible, just, devout, self-controlled,

9 holding fast the faithful word which is in accordance with the teaching, so that he will be able both to exhort in sound doctrine and to refute those who contradict.

Have a lovely week!

Hello again....

Hello, everyone!

I know it's been a while, and I'm sorry we haven't posted for so long. Our lives finally caught up to us! But we'd like to start this back up, and I just finished Numbers today. How about reading Deuteronomy 1-15 this week? Kelsie and I also would like a break from memorizing Psalms, and we both thought Titus would be good. It's only about three chapters long, and it has a lot of important teachings for young men and women. So we'll be commmitting the first four verses (the greeting) to memory this week as well.

1Paul, a bond-servant of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ, for the faith of those chosen of God and the knowledge of the truth which is according to godliness,

2 in the hope of eternal life, which God, who cannot lie, promised long ages ago,

3 but at the proper time manifested, even His word, in the proclamation with which I was entrusted according to the commandment of God our Savior,

4 To Titus, my true child in a common faith : Grace and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Savior.

Update~

Hello, all!

It's been another week, and even though I'm not exactly caught up with our reading ;P, we're going to move on and read Leviticus 11-27. We'll also be finishing memorizing Psalm 3. I don't know about you, but I think this must be one of my favorite psalms! I especially love verses 5 and 6:

5 I lay down and slept ;

I awoke, for the LORD sustains me.

6 I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people

Who have set themselves against me round about.

7 Arise, O LORD ; save me, O my God !

For You have smitten all my enemies on the cheek ;

You have shattered the teeth of the wicked.

8 Salvation belongs to the LORD ;

Your blessing be upon Your people ! Selah.

I hope that everyone has a great week!

Happy Monday!

For this week we're reading Exodus 29-Leviticus 10. Wow, it feels like we're moving really fast! :o) We're going to memorize Psalm 3:1-4.

Psalm 3:1-4

1 O Lord, how my adversaries have increased!
Many are rising up against me.

2 Many are saying of my soul,
"There is no deliverance for him in God." Selah.

3 But You, O Lord, are a shield about me,
My glory, and the One who lifts my head.

4 I was crying to the Lord with my voice,
And He answered me from His holy mountain. Selah.

~Review Week~

Hello again, everyone!

Everything has been so busy this month, we've decided to just review Psalms 1 and 2 this week instead of moving on to Psalm 3. We'll also be reading chapters 8-28 in Exodus. (Can you believe that we're already in Exodus?!)

I'd also like to encourage comments! It's nice to know that people were here. ;)

Exodus and Psalms 2

I'm looking forward to another good week studying, and this week we will be reading Genesis 37-Exodus 7 and memorizing the end of Psalms 2. I can't believe we're already ready to finish Genesis! It helps motivate me when I feel like I'm accomplishing things. :o)

Psalms 2:7-12

7 "I will surely tell of the decree of the Lord;
He said to Me, 'You are My Son,
Today I have begotten You.

8 'Ask of Me, and I will surely give the nations as Your inheritance,
And the very ends of the earth as Your possession.

9 'You shall break them with a rod of iron,
You shall shatter them like earthenware.' "

10 Now therefore, O kings, show discernment;
Take warning, O judges of the earth.

11 Worship the Lord with reverence

And rejoice with trembling.

12 Do homage to the Son, that He not become angry, and you perish in the way,

For His wrath may soon be kindled.

How blessed are all who take refuge in Him!

Hope everyone has a good week in the Lord!

Hey Everyone!

This week we’ll start our Bible reading with the first 15 chapters of Genesis, and we’ll start our memorization with Psalm 1. It only has 6 verses, which means it will only take us one week to memorize the entire chapter! :o)

Psalm 1, NASB

1 How blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked,

Nor stand in the path of sinners,

Nor sit in the seat of scoffers!

2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord,

And in His law he meditates day and night.

3 And he will be like a tree firmly planted by streams of water,

Which yields its fruit in its season,

And its leaf does not wither;

And in whatever he does, he prospers.

4 The wicked are not so,

But they are like chaff which the wind drives away,

5 Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment,

Nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.

6 For the Lord knows the way of the righteous,

But the way of the wicked will perish.
