Seeds

I have, unfortunately, always been pretty terrible about memorizing scripture. I have a few key verses committed to memory, but have always been amazed by people who have a plethora of scripture memorized. I often find myself using www.biblegateway.com when a verse is on the tip of my tongue. Although its a great source, it doesn’t quite have the same effect as looking up a passage in the bible.. and it's easy to say "why memorize the verse when I can just look it up?".

I certainly have known that my prayer life and witnessing would be more fruitful if I were more disciplined to commit pieces of God's word to memory. Not to mention the power that can come from declaring truths against Satan (like Jesus did when he was tempted in the wilderness).

Ephesians 6:17 says "Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God." (Thanks again, BibleGateway.com) The word of God is the one piece of armor used to slay the temptation of the enemy and our own sinful nature.

Well.. I first heard of Seeds Family Worship through another blog that I follow. It's becoming popular for kids & families these days. The songs are pure scripture verses.. and I love listening to them!



You can get more info at www.seedsfamilyworship.net. I bought Vol 2 "Seeds of Faith" here are the songs on it:

1. The Word of the Lord ( 1 Peter 1:24-25 )
2. Grace ( Ephesians 2:8 )
3. Hey Man ( Romans 5:8, 6:23 )
4. The Light of the World ( John 8: 12 )
5. No Greater Love ( John 15:13-14 )
6. Faith as Small as ( Matthew 17:20 )
7. Eternal Life ( John 3:16 )
8. They Will See God ( Matthew 5:8 )
9. Walk In is Ways ( Psalm 128:1 )
10. Faith ( Hebrews 11: 1 & 6 )
11. Carry It On ( Philippians 1:6 )
12. New Creation ( 2 Corinthians 5:17 )

I'll hopefully have all these verses committed to memory very soon! :) I also can’t wait to listen to this CD with my kids some day!
