6. SATURATED WITH THE WORD

As a President’s Prayer Partner, we again invite you to truly be a people of the Word. As Seventh-day Adventists, we embrace 28 Fundamental truths that are based on the Bible alone. For several months we have been focusing on four passages of scripture that are foundational to each of our fundamental beliefs.

Here’s our next set of 4 memory passages for June to coincide with our 17th fundamental belief regarding what the Bible teaches about Spiritual Gifts and Ministries. Let’s place His Word prayerfully in our hearts each day of this month.

I carry a set of these passages with me in my car and repeat them aloud as I drive from place to place. My goal is to prayerfully say one verse at least five times a day for a week, thus embracing the promise of God’s Word – “Thy Word have I hid in mine heart that I might not sin against Thee.” Psalm 119:11 Repeat these passages over and over till they become a part of your very being. Of course, you can always choose to do more. Prayerfully consider how you can saturate your soul and make His Word a part of your heart every day.

A. Romans 12: 4-6 (NKJV) – “For as we have many members in one body, but all the members do not have the same function, so we, being many, are one body in Christ, and individually members of one another. Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, let us use them.”

B. I Corinthians 12: 27-28 (NKJV) – “Now you are the body of Christ, and members individually And God has appointed these in the church: first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, administrations, varieties of tongues.”

C. Ephesians 4: 11-12 (NKJV) -“And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ.”

D. I Peter 4: 10 (NKJV) -“As each one has received a gift, minister it to one another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.”
