I have decided to spend some time memerizing scripture. I have read through the Bible so many times. I actually grew up with scripture. But which I could remember more now in my old age. Then I am across this video. And knew that is what God would have me do. Thanks
Excellent advice. I've been trying to memorize. I've read the entire Bible since Jan 2024, but I really want to absorb the word, so I'm gonna try this. Excited to start. Thank you & bless you.
Yes this definitely helped me. I feel the struggle to memorize. I’m going to give Keith’s way a try for sure. I definitely read out loud but never thought about doing a chapter for thirty days, everyday. Made sense. Thank you very much. God Bless. ❤
Jennifer Saake, too! She's another wonderful community member and in fact, was the first person who welcomed me into the community when I first joined a couple of years ago. 😊 Maranatha!
When I was a kid attending a Christian school, we had to memorize a chapter of the Bible every month. We simply read the chapter out loud once per day every day, and near the end of the month, we had it memorized.
Thanks, Josh. I run a lunchtime Bible study group at the school where I teach, and we happen to be studying the book of John this year. I turned the John outline cards into flashcards and gifted them to the group just in time for school holidays. It’s a great tool!
Vs. 5...."who through faith are sheilded" ...wow, Josh.... Faith IS THE SHIELD in the Armor of God that Paul talks about in Ephesians 6:16! Praise God! I believe Peter and Paul did alot of ministry together too, right? And Knew each other well....connections are fun!!!
Integrity music made some Scripture memory Songs quite a while ago, but I loved Them! And in their Praise Scripture memory Album, They actually have 1 Peter 1:3-4 set to some very nice music...! ❤
Thank you Keith, l'm so blessed. I've been thinking of a way to do what you are saying but could not imagine how. Your video is the exact answer to what l need to do, God bless you sir.
At least 40 years a believer and have used songs etc. to memorize but still struggle to recall chapter/verse references etc. and even more so as I age. Internalizing makes so much sense & aligns with my experience! Switching fully TODAY! Thank God for you both! Answer to prayer!
I am so grateful that I came across this video. It is wonderful. I uave always tried to read and study but never remaining on course. Now I understand. God bless you.
Yes indeed. Im around 17yrs Christian. I have read the whole bible once in the the beginning when i first believed. This took me 3yrs to completed the whole book. It indeed sow deep into my inner soul with the visions and understanding the stories first. Same, i read according to my time n desire to read continuously like a novel book without giving a chapter or two. Thk you.
Sorry meditation is not recitation of Scriptures but the deep relationship you develop by meditation. As I always say meditation locks in the verse we want to know. Heard a story once of a guy who could profoundly recite the we are taking large portions of the Bible. Well later come to find out he was a leader of the Soviet Union. So reciting them is not enough. No you must think deep ponder fight to know inside and out not be a parrot but that grow in you become you build a relationship with it. Although I am not against doing chapters to memorize, that said 3 or 4 verses is a lot more easy to memorize and meditate on. Take Mk 13:9-13 Talks about the Holy Scriptures The wicked reject by their tradition. Or Hebrews 4:12-13 Talks about being sharper than any two edged sword. v 13 and no creature is hidden from His sight but all are naked and exposed to the eyes of Him by whom we must give an account. Philippians 4:8 Meditate on these things. Its is not to think on a passage when we learn its meaning sum the meaning find the teaching. As a Puritan once meditation is the chewing of spiritual food. No so many Christians are weak. Ps 40:7 described as a book. Acts 17:11 Everything should be tried by The Holy Scriptures 'Now these Jews were more noble than those in Thessalonica; they received the Word with all eagerness, examining the Scriptures daily to see if these things were so." We need to meditate like they did with a mind filled with word we can Memorization stores it in the mind Meditation draws it out through much thought and pondering the principles behind so we apply to our life it anchors it in place I can attest to this With many Verses Ps 1 ch 103:1-4; 19:7-11, 1-3; John 3:16-18; Romans 8:38-39; 1 John 2:15-17; 1 Corinthians 15:58; Jer 23:23-24. And I seek to understand it in its context. Just thought I had to give my insight.
Replay from Arkansas! Listening to cicadas are so relaxing! Thank you so much for all the work you do on the channel and community. I am excited about the new book. I participated in my first challenge this year. I am working on the 52 verses. The week really helped me with intentionality every day. Interviews are great! I love Janet Pope, Andy Davis, and Keith Ferrin and may others! Oh, you're great oo Josh!
Hi Josh, I enjoy the channel and how I'm being encouraged in Bible Memory. I was gifted with a digital photo frame for my last birthday (72) and have started putting my Bible verses on the digital frame. I've not heard anyone talk about using the frame in this way. N E Georgia USA is home.
That's an awesome idea. During our team brainstorm, one of the things we talked about was creating digital phone/computer "wallpaper" with verses that rotate. Sounds very similar!
Thank you to you both‼️ And as I grow closer to God he leads me to podcasts that, like this one have been like stepping stones to where Our Father is leading me.
