I love memorizing scripture!! I do it everyday, thanks to John MacArthur's daily bible with 52 key verses to memorize (many included in your post!). I have been at it now for 3-4 years..."How blessed am I that I "...delight in the Law of the Lord, and in His Law I meditate day and night."
"This book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth...." Thank God it doesn't!!
When we read scripture, study and memorize it, God's nature is revealed to us and it transforms us when we ask Him to do so. Jeremiah 29:13 "You will seek Me and find Me when you seek Me with all your heart." One of my favorite verses among so many.
What an amazing gift of grace the Lord has given us, His own mind in a book, which He promises will reveal Himself to us and sanctify us, if only we make use of it.

• Proverbs 3:1-6
1 My son, forget not my law; but let thine heart keep my commandments:
2 For length of days, and long life, and peace, shall they add to thee.
3 Let not mercy and truth forsake thee: bind them about thy neck; write them upon the table of thine heart:
4 So shalt thou find favour and good understanding in the sight of God and man.
5 Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.
• John 6:63
It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing:
the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit,
and they are life.
