Why You Really Can Memorize Scripture: Understand and Unlock Your Mind's Natural Ability to Memorize Long Passages

Called to be a missionary as a teenager, I had a great desire to fulfill God's will, but had a great sense of inadequacy for such an extraordinary purpose.  But God says he who meditates in His Word ... shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper (Psalm 1:3). This verse was and still is a great source of encouragement. Part of meditation is to memorize God's Word, so I began a systematic method of memorizing consecutive passages of scripture.  Through the years I learned, both by study and by experience, how God made our memory function.  Presently, I have 42 chapters memorized and, best of all, our missionary work has prospered beyond what I could have imagined. This book describes what I learned about permanently memorizing scripture and will help you be one of the few who experiences the blessing of meditation in God's Word, and the hope that whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.   In this book you?ll learn: ·         Specific memorization techniques. ·         How to memorize scripture, the Bible. ·         How to retain what you memorize   About the Author Dr. Morris graduated from Pacific Coast Baptist Bible College and Anchor Theological Seminary.  He received his Ph.
