TODAY’S JONI AND FRIENDS DAILY DEVOTIONAL FOR 10 MAY 2022
TODAY’S TOPIC: MEMORIZING
SCRIPTURE: “‘For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,’ declares the Lord. ‘As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.’” Isaiah 55:8-9
There’s hardly a Christian who doesn’t wish his thought life were more pure. After all, the first and greatest commandment is to love the Lord with all our… mind. Memorizing God’s Word is the best way to rebuild your thoughts. Committing portions of Scripture to memory is like thinking God’s thoughts after Him. When we think that way, our mind can’t help but be elevated.
Also, memorizing large portions of Scripture gives us insight into understanding the very thought structures of our Lord. Through memorizing, we can appreciate the way God thinks! And that, more than anything else, will heighten our thought life to a pure level.
There is a story told of a family living on the edge of a desert who was amazed to see that flowers had sprouted in the salty sand behind their home. No one could figure out how that happened, since they had tried for months to grow vegetables and flowers. The mystery was solved when someone realized the mother had been throwing her dishwater out the back door every day. After many months and many dishpans of water, the salt was washed out of the sand. That’s why flowers were able to grow.
As we soak our minds with Scripture, old and impure thoughts will be washed away. New thoughts–God’s thoughts–will find a home in our mind.
I want to think Your thoughts, Lord, and fill my mind with Your ideas. Help me to elevate my thinking toward Your level as You lead me deeper into Your Word. And show me today what thoughts of Yours that You would have me memorize.
