My Birthday Bible Verse is Romans 8:31. On August (the 8th month) 31st a few years ago, I made a new goal for myself to memorize more scripture.
I asked God to help me. As I was praying about knowing more of God’s word, I admitted to Jesus that I have a hard time remembering the scripture reference. “Dear Jesus, you know me and I just can’t remember numbers.”, I prayed. He responded, “Carrie, You don’t forget your birthday or anyone else’s birthday that is important to you.”
So, that started me in my journey running my fingers quickly through all 66 chapters scanning through and looking for Chapter 8, verse 31 of each book of the Bible. I got through the Old Testament without finding any that really resonated with me. Then, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts, Romans! Yes! I read it and immediately knew that the Lord led me to know that very special and specific verse. It was timely for the spiritual battle I was fighting.
Romans 8:31 reads, “What can we say to these things, If God is for us, who can be against us.”
It’s wild how I know that I will never forget that verse now that I associate it with my birthdate.
I can use this to find a Birthday Bible verse for those around me who I love. I can share with my family and encourage my spouse, children, and friends this practical kind of scripture memorization.
Other numbers are unforgettable also. How about an Anniversary date Bible verse? Or an house number? Any significant number will do. You could even use the last few numbers of your telephone number, social security number, or any other number that you already have committed to memory.
Jesus works in mysterious ways as they say. I’m so glad he gave me this idea. This has really helped me. I hope it helps you too.
Carrie On and Stay High on Him who Loves you! Your birthday matters! 🎉 Jesus Loves you! ❤️
