My life verse is Romans 8:38-39: "For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord." Comment and let me know what verse in the Bible completely changed your life and transformed your walk with God!

My son was sick from birth until age 10. It was hard to watch him suffer. Isaiah 41:10 was my verse to remind me not to be afraid because the Lord was with us. My son is now 17 and he is completely healed. The Lord never forsake us. To God be the Glory!

My life verse is Psalms 73:26 My flesh and my heart fail; but God is the strength of my heart and He is mine forever.

I will never forget the moment I was driving and not feeling the greatest - I was having feelings of defeat and unsureness and I looked at the car in front of me and on the right bottom of the car read Jeremiah 29:11 !!!! I immediately started to cry because even in the midst of me feeling defeated God sent a reminder to me - he knows the plans he has for me plans to PROSPER me and not harm me - plans to give me hope and a future !

I will never forget that day - his word and promises are always with us and forever true 💜💜

Jeremiah 1:5
" Before you were born from your mother's womb, I have chosen you"

[lilspongie]

4 years later and I am still still blessed by this.

[MarthaGarcia-kuve]

Psalm 34:4 I looked to the lord, and he answered me. He saved me from everything I was afraid of. and Matthew 10:28 Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cant kill the soul. Instead, be afraid of the one who can destroy both soul and body in hell. I suffered from deep depression and anxiety which gave me insomnia but had an encounter with god and he healed me. Now im working on my family which my mother who was an alcoholic and I spoke to her about god and what he did to me and she gave herself to jesus and is now healing. God is faithful and good.

Reminder : Bible study is not something that we do for God but, it’s something we do with God.
1. Read - ask urself what the scripture is saying. Read it in different translations, and read it in full context. Write any key verses that stuck out to you. Paraphrase what the scripture is saying to make sure you actually understand what you’re reading. Take note of the who, where and why this scripture was written.
2. Reflect - Ask yourself what this scripture means or what it is saying. reflect on the promises of God. His principals & His commands. And write down any promises, principals and commands. when we reflect on the word we discover what we need to do
3. Respond - how i can apply the word to my life. when we respond to the word we discover how we need to do it.
4. Request - let what you read guide your prayer. i.e if you read that you have to forgive more because God forgave us then ask God to help you in that area of your life.
Invite God into your heart🤍

Here I am 5 years later..I bought my Bible today..Thank you for this video because I did not have any idea of where to start, I am also learning how to pray and communicate with God.

[PraiseroftheLivinGod]

The scripture that helped transform my life was psalm 27:1

The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

This helped me to face not only my fears, but myself, who seems to strangle me from within.

[Ficher-oktu]

the steps are really very good. I pray God strengthens me to do his will.

[sherryjameson]

This is on of my favorites. “The Lord is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower.” ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭18:2‬ ‭KJV‬‬

Thanks Christina - I am trying to summarize it in Bahasa Indonesia.

4 LANGKAH BAGAIMANA CARA MEMPELAJARI ALKITAB – Baik jika digunakan untuk PJJ, PA MORIA, PA MAMRE.

Sebelum mempelajari Alkitab, lakukan berdoa memohon agar Rohkudus memimpin dan memberi petunjuk ttng apa yang dikehendaki Tuhan dalam rangka belajar Alkitab.
Berikut 4 langkah belajar Alkitab:

1. READ – MEMBACA
Pikirkan kalimat “APA YANG DIKATAKAN ALKITAB”, bacalah beberapa kali, jika memungkin kan baca Alkitab dari berbagai Bahasa utk mendapatkan pengertian full context.
Untuk memenuhi pengertian tsb gunakan kata 4W-1H (WHAT = Apa, WHY = Mengapa, WHEN = Bilamana, WHO = Siapa dan HOW = Bagaimana) misalnya:
WHAT = Apa yang sedang terjadi dengan ayat ini.
WHO = Siapa yang menuliskan ayat ini
WHEN = Kapan dituliskan dan WHERE = Dimana dan WHY = Mengapa dituliskan.

2. REFLECT – MENCERMINKAN
Untuk mendapatkan refleksi ini, gunakan pertanyaan “Apa pengertian ayat ini”, apakah berhubungan dengan COMMAND = Perintah, PROMISE= Janji atau PRINCIPLE= Dasar/ Prinsip.

PROMISE – adalah pernyataan Tuhan bahwa Dia akan melakukan sesuatu,
contoh Mat.28:20, Jesus berkata “Aku akan selalu menyertai mu” .

PRINCIPLE – adalah dasar sebuah kebenaran (ketergantungan), adalah sebuah pernyataan bila melakukan sesuatu maka akan ada hasil konsekwensi nya,
contoh: Masmur 37:4, Bergembiralah karena Tuhan, maka Dia akan memberikan apa yang engkau inginkan.

COMMAND – adalah perintah Tuhan. Misalnya, mari kita lihat 10 Perintah Tuhan yang di declare oleh Musa, Kasihilah Tuhan mu, Jangan mencuri, hormat kepada orang tua mu dll.

3. RESPOND – MENANGGAPI
Setelah membaca dan merefleksikan selanjutnya adalah bagaimana menanggapinya, misalnya membuat pertanyaan. Bagaimana caranya agar ayat yang dipelajari bisa diterapkan dalam kehidupan kita, kemudian menyusun rencana dan strategi agar segera diimplementasikan.

4. REQUEST – PERMOHONAN
Berdoa agar mendapatkan pertologan dan kekuatan, karena hanya Tuhan yang dapat membantu mengimplementasikan isi alkitab tsb.
Misalnya, jika kita sedang mempelajari ayat alkitab tentang Forgiveness – Memaafkan, karena Tuhan juga pemaaf, maka kita berdoa agar Tuhan menolong dan memberi kekuatan untuk bisa memaafkan.

Demikianlah summary yang dapat saya sajikan, semoga bermanfaat – Salam penuh kasih – ITB.

Rom 8:28 “And in all things, God works together for the good of those that love Him, who have been called according to His purpose” it just gives me hope that no matter what trial/ affliction I might face in life, God is working it all for my good. And he’s not finished writing my life story🙏🏽

This is the verse that change my life :Romans 12v1-2

[chawonda]

My life verse is Psalms 51. The very first time I opened the Bible to read it for myself, I prayed “God show me what to read.” I let the Bible fell open and this was the scripture my eyes fell on. It was EXACTLY what I needed and need. God is real and He is so GOOD!!❤❤❤

Psalms 9:9
