Week of Feb. 17

My apologies for not submitting a verse last week. My email account has been giving me trouble so I will be sending this out on a different account.

President Obama today signed the stimulus package. Our verse for this week is one of God’s stimulus packages. We are to “stimulate” each other to good works!

Memory Verse for the week of February 17

24 And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works, 25 not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching. Hebrews 10:24-25



This Week’s Extended Passage

You should be memorizing verses 7-9 if you are keeping up with the schedule to have this passage memorized by the end of February. Remember just take 2-3 verses a week and you will have it memorized within a month’s time.

1 Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,

2 through whom also we have access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.

3 And not only that, but we also glory in tribulations, knowing that tribulation produces perseverance;

4 and perseverance, character; and character, hope.

5 Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.

6 For when we were still without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.

7 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die; yet perhaps for a good man someone would even dare to die.

8 But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

9 Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through Him.

10 For if when we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life.

11 And not only that, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation. Romans 5:1-11

God bless you as you hide his Word in your heart.
