The Bible is filled with amazing truths!
The Bible is filled with powerful words!
The Bible is filled with LIFE!
The Bible is filled with… a lot of things I wish I could remember!
Raise your hand if you can identify with that last comment ?
What if I give you ONLY three words to remember?
Could you do it? It’s only three words.
Here’s the coolest thing:
God’s Word is filled with three word phrases to help us remember full stories, or truths.
Try my theory:
Read the following three word phrases, then fill in the story or truth from where the three words come.
(I gave you the reference just so you could see if you are correct!)
READY??
In the beginning…
(Ok that one was easy!)
And God said… (Genesis 1)
Let us make… (Genesis 1:27)
Peace, Be still! (Mark 4:39)
Walk by faith (2 Corinthians 5:7)
Come, follow Me. (Matthew 4:19)
But if not… (Daniel 3:18)
Enter His gates… (Psalm 100)
Taste and see… (Psalm 34:8)
He’s not here! (Matthew 28:6)
Feed My sheep. (John 21:15-19)
Help my unbelief! (Mark 9:24)
Seek ye first… (Matthew 6:33)
It is finished! (John 19:30)
… but through (by) Me (John 14:6)
God so loved… (John 3:16)
Always be prepared… (1 Peter 3:15)
Love never dies (ceases, ends). (1 Corinthians 13:8)
How did you do?
Could you remember the context once you had the three words?
My point:
So often we think, “I can’t memorize that! It’s too much!”
But, we all can remember three words!
Get God’s Word into your life however you can!
Start with three words of truth, of direction, of grace, of POWER!
Three words from God are worth far more than thousands of words from the world!
