Bible Study | Marking Key Words

I love studying God's Word and encouraging others to do the same. I hope this video helps someone understand God's Word better. It is so fun to look back over the pages marked with key words to see what stands out in a Book of the Bible. I printed my pages out to mark but you can sure do this in your bible too. I have! It is a nice conversation starter when people see those pages, that is for sure.
Here is the web sight I get my key word lists from...
karikingdent.c...
Just scroll down and you will see different lists for different books of the Bible as well as a comprehensive list from A-Z. I printed this out and keep it in a notebook to use anytime I am doing a study.
If you are interested in a study of the book of Romans, we are presently doing this study on Right Now Media...www.rightnowme... with J.D. Greear. It is really good!
Blessings my friends as you continue to grow your relationship with God,
Penny
We would love to hear from you!

You are precious! God bless you abundantly!

Thank you so much! God’s blessings on you too! 😁

I am loving this! It makes me slow down (a lot right now while I’m learning the icons) and really read in detail. I have a few thing I’ve been using that I will keep, but I really think this will work for me. Thanks!

[@OpenHandFarm]

I am thrilled to hear this. It definitely slows me down too. In a good way of course! I pray blessings on your time in God‘s word! 😁🙏❤️

I also use the NIV for study - but I use the journal edition as it gives me so much room to use. I started with looking for ways I can be better and as I read, I discover prayers I want to say (I write them in) or special words (to me sometimes I find something special that make me ask questions or mean something more to me) and also I discover answers to questions I have. All these things inspire thoughts I want to remember or tie to other thoughts and I write the 'thing' that stirred me with as much reverence as I can and even add simple pictures or shapes like hearts, crosses, rainbow, or a lamb or a hand offering a fruit to God. After several years, this book has very little space left to write. I've discovered some of my favorite books (Romans and Isaiah and Mark) and have begun a MUCH deeper relationship with the Holy Spirit and hopefully a better me. I've discovered that anger is a sin (loss of self-control). I've found out who David's mother was as he mentioned her faithfulness often in Psalms and I was curious. I've begun a list of names that God said were his. (Curiously they are more descriptor than name. He was careful to not give us an image, name, or other 'thing' to use or worship other than Him). The only name that seemed like a name was Jesus. I've made lists of what it means to be Good. I've felt so enriched as I study his word. If I claim to believe in him, surely I should actually listen to what he says to me, right? (Not taking away what others say, but His words are to me from the Holy Spirit that he gave me to understand and remember them. That's why I consider it my living bible as it speaks to me personally. I began this while telling my grands that writing over and over their homework was the way they would remember lessons. Then it dawned on me to write the Bible. I began with Matthew. In order to preserve it I had to write it in pencil to see how it would fit on the page. I reread what I copied to make sure there were no errors. Then I wrote it in pencil again on watercolor paper pages. Then I reread to ensure no errors. Then I wrote over the pencil in permanent ink. Each time rereading to make sure the words were clear and correct. Finally, I painted over each page with watercolor and decorated each page differently around the edges and over the middle. I finished Matthew then made a book for each chapter and made a copy of each book for each of my grands. I made it through first part of Mark and have stopped. I'm having too much 'inspiration' from my daily bible study to stop just now and get back to the bible. Now the journaling bible is almost completely full with little room for more on each page. So I NEED to get back to rewriting the bible. It was so meaningful for me. I need to finish it but first - garden time is here and outside is calling. I feel closer to God there than anywhere else. But I better get busy on my Bible copies as I'm 76 and the clock is ticking.

Mary, sweet, sweet Mary...You always share wisdom in your comments to my videos but this time you have outdone yourself. Now I really want to come just sit at the table with you and have a cup of coffee or tea and have a deep conversation about all you said here. You have made my day! I am so blessed by all the information you have given. I just don't even know where to start. I am letting all this sink in. I have read it several times now and just sit and pictured all that you have beautifully described! Your children, grandchildren, friends, and fellow believers are surely blessed by being a part of your sweet life. Your heart is so precious! I just love you. As always, yet somehow, even more, you have blessed me beyond measure! Thanks you so much sweet friend!

[@iartistdotme]

@@OpenHandFarm It is amazing that through the internet we can meet and appreciate the goodness we strive for and deeply love to share. Your video today made it even clearer that we have so much in common but mostly I appreciate all you do and say - a beautiful person with love overflowing in all you say and do. I'm thrilled to have found such a friend and would absolutely join you for coffee/tea at the drop of a hat (that;s a strange old saying). How about we take a walk together in my garden? LOL I'd be honored to have you, for sure. But, being so far away, I will just keep enjoying your videos knowing I have a lovely friend that I hold in my heart - just one video away.

LOVE THIS!!! I’ve tried several methods and this is the best to look for meaning. Thanks so much. I’m subscribing!

[@OpenHandFarm]

I am so happy this looks like it will work for you! I love it! I don’t have a lot of this type of video, but I try to shine the light of Jesus in all of my other videos that I do. I hope you will find more that you enjoy. Thanks so much for commenting and for subscribing! Blessings on your studies! 😁

[@jhstwinsis]

Thank you for sharing

[@OpenHandFarm]

I had hoped that others would enjoy this method as well. Blessings on your time in God’s word! 😁

[@melindahayes3728]

I would love it if you could post where you are able to print out the chapter of bible you are studying double spaced. I've been having trouble finding it . Thanks for sharing.

[@OpenHandFarm]

Hi Melinda, I am so happy that this interests you. In order to get the double spaced book of Romans, I copy and pasted it to a google doc from biblegateway.com and then I made it double spaced. Here is the link to mine…docs.google.com/document/d/1h18tPbz46_8JlKgB3Zpp1Qq3AbTdv9JusGerEZZpE4w/edit I hope you enjoy this! Blessings on your time in God’s Word!

[@Risingsouth11]

Oh thank you for this. I'm going to give it a try.

[@OpenHandFarm]

I hope it blesses you as much as it does me! Blessings on your study as you increase your relationship with God!

[@anneshirleyduncan]

I love how you've made a symbol chart for us. When I checked each books symbols I noticed that Jeremiah is missing. Will you make a symbol chart for Jeremiah?

[@OpenHandFarm]

I am so glad you are enjoying the key words! I did not make those lists, it is a website I go to and use. I'm not sure why she doesn't have all the books. I did find a list on Pinterest with symbols. It is a little hard to read but hopefully it will be useful to you. Here is the link... i.pinimg.com/originals/aa/02/b7/aa02b7f35d7344a55d5661a91473ca99.jpg Blessings on your time in God's Word!

[@KarisParadiseVintage]

@@OpenHandFarm I don't have a sheet for all of the books because it takes a really long time to compile the lists of key words and create a Key Word Symbol Sheet. 🙂 But I'm working on it! Pray with me that I could finish all of the books. I am almost there! 🙏

[@OpenHandFarm]

@@KarisParadiseVintage oh my goodness, I cannot even imagine the work that goes into it. You are such a blessing. I will definitely pray for you as you continue this work that God has blessed you with. Thanks again so much for sharing these amazing list!

[@KarisParadiseVintage]

@@OpenHandFarm thank you! And thanks for sharing my website!
