How is your memory?
Are you remembering to remember? We are in the fourth batch of five - number nineteen is Habbakuk 3:17-18 - "Though the fig tree does not bud and there are no grapes on the vines, though the olive crop fail and the fields produce no food, though there are no sheep in the pen and no cattle in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will be joyful in God my Saviour."
Once you have memorised a set of five, you can get the knight for that set. New memory verse:
- [#19] Habbakuk 3:17-18
Though the fig tree does not bud and there are no grapes on the vines, though the olive crop fail and the fields produce no food, though there are no sheep in the pen and no cattle in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will be joyful in God my Saviour.
Earlier memory verses in set 4 (16-20):
- [#16] Ephesians 2:8-10
For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith - and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God - not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.

Set 3 (11-15):
- [#11] 1 John 2:15-17
Do not love the world or anything in the world. If you love the world, love for the Father is not in you.

The world and it's desires pass away, but whoever does the will of God lives forever.
