Girl, you have blessed me, I know that I am anointed to preach Gods word, Once I taken your method that you have implemented, it has taken me to another level in God it is powerful, fun and interesting. I have no husband nor any children at home I have nothing but time. Gods word is spirit and is life, I have started praying the word as well my joy is full I am happier you are a God sent there is no depression in God. I spend hours with God, soon after the devil attacked me and I knew right away the reason, I put the word of God on him so quick and he left immediately I sent him on his way quick and in a hurry. There are times God will wake me up in the morning and start speaking to me, God is just Awesome. Thank you so much and continue to let God use. JoAnn
This really helped and encouraged me! I just started my first book: James. Thanks for reminding me the point is not memorization; it’s to be closer to the Lord! God bless you, sister!
I memorized James by just repeating over and over and it's super great because it's easier to integrate scripture into conversation. I'm returning to this video for when I try to memorize Ephesians the next 3months
this is amazing, I am really excited, I have memorized several psalms and scriptures but i never i have thought of memorizing entire books, it is amazing, i can't wait to start tomorrow God first. pray for me.
This is motivating!!! I’ve always said I can’t memorize and that’s a lie. With Christ all things are possible!!! I’m going to start with Psalm 1. There we are told what a delight it is to mediate day and night on his law. How perfect is that for memorizing God’s Word. Thank you for making it all seem doable.
Part 2 Once I have become familiar with the whole book I then set up my CD player to repeat a single chapter over and over. I find that I don't actually try to memorize the book so much as it just happens on it's own. After a while I can recite the chapter while I'm listening to it. Another thing that I do is to outline the chapter from memory so that I don't just know the text but also have a clear sense of the meaning. I will also do a one minute summary, a three minute summary and a five minute summery of each chapter. Each increase in the length of summery allows me to include more detail. The first book I memorized was Paul's letter to the Romans. It took me about two years, but it made such a big impact on my understanding of the Christian life that I was hooked. Thank you so much for your videos. You've given me a lot of great ideas and tips to include in my memorization and Bible study. May the Lord bless you abundantly!
Hi, I was just reading your reply and wanted to invite you to my new facebook group "Scripture Memory Encouragement and Help." I know you could offer a lot of help to those who are just starting out. Would love to have you! You can search for it and then click "join" and I will approve you. =)
Girl!!! Within the first 2 words of you speaking I subscribed!! There is something very blessed about you. I very quickly felt that I recognized your spirit...It is the Spirit of God. Thank you for the great tips!! Jesus bless
When you showed your hand written copy, it reminded me of Deuteronomy 17:18 "When he [King of Israel] takes the throne of his kingdom, he is to write for himself on a scroll a copy of this law, taken from that of the Levitical priests. It is to be with him, and he is to read it all the days of his life so that he may learn to revere the LORD his God and follow carefully all the words of this law and these decrees and not consider himself better than his fellow Israelites and turn from the law to the right or to the left. Then he and his descendants will reign a long time over his kingdom in Israel. " SO YOUR SUGGESTIONS were GOD's LAW for the King. God even teaches us how to memorize and meditate!! Love it.
I just discovered your videos today! Love them! I have been memorizing scripture for years. It is truly the lamp to my feet & light of my path. Your video encourage some things I've been doing but added some new things for me to try. I plan to add the spiral note card book & colored pens. Thank you! Stay on your assignment! You are truly blessed and a blessing!!!
+AMaineZingLife I don't know why I'm just seeing this, but I love that you've already known the blessings of memorization! So glad you found something here to try. Praying continued blessings as you hide the Word in your heart!
@@bradcrampton8920 It sounds far-fetched, but believing is seeing: consistently reading, memorizing, and thinking about Scripture changes you fundamentally (not a pun). I've never encountered any other book that has had such a profound impact on my character and my life. His words are Spirit, not merely ink on a page; they have real power. That is one of the many facts (along with history, archeology, and scientific knowledge) testifying to the authenticity of Scripture.
@@mcginnisdmm1253 If you dont understand bias, magical thinking and the ability of the human mind to create experience, it seems legit but over the years the feelings fade and if one is honest they discover that the god they are loving is something they have created and they could have created other gods and imaginations to make their life seem more fulfilling but they are caught in the web of the cultural god that dominates where they live, in our case Jesus and America.
I love this so much!! Especially when you said to say it with feeling because I was able to memorize a chapter in about a week because I would recite it like I was in a poetry slam show. ❤ love, love, love this. Thank you for sharing. Praying all is well with you and may the Lord continue to bless you, your family and your memory.
So encouraging. For the last five years I've been memorizing larger passages of Scripture, but gave it up last year when life was overwhelming. Thanks for the nudge to get back on track.
This really works! Thanks a ton. I've now got ephesians 1:1-12 down and it's so good repeat it all the time - on my bike, in the shower, in the car, where ever - because the words start to sink in and become so meaningful and beloved to me.
Thank you so much for posting this. At the age of 51 I decided after all these years of being in church, and only knowing Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, but I really wanted to learn the books of the Bible. So thankful I found you and was able to quickly learn the books of the Bible. You are a treasure.❤
I first saw this video a couple of months ago and figured I would give it a try to bring more INTENTION to my Bible verse memorization. While I had quite a few well known verses memorized, I wanted to bring more scripture into my memory. I used some of your techniques (the spiral notebook is golden!!!!) and in the last 2 months I have memorized soooo much more scripture!!! Your technique has really worked for me and has helped me in my prayer time as I like to pray scripture. Thanks for this video. God Bless you.
Oh, I love this! I'm rejoicing with you! I know you are experiencing amazing fruit from scripture memorization, as well as from praying scripture. Praise God! Thank you so much for letting me know. This blesses me so much. May the Lord continue to bless you as you draw near to Him through scripture memory and prayer!
Thank you for your video! It has really encouraged me to get back to memorising the scripture again. Like you said, I feel strongly about it not only for all the reasons you laid out but also because I believe there will be a day where there will be no more Bibles. If His word is in my heart no one can ever take the Bible away from me. Thank you again!
+truluvw8ts73 So true. We are blessed to have an abundance of Bibles, but we never know when that privilege could be taken. Hiding the word in our hearts is such a rich blessing.
I wish I could repost this all over the World, I often go back over my Playlist of KimCashTate memorable and impact full teachings, and studies....This is one of my favorites, one of....never gets old to me, and gets me back on track, with the importance of meditating on Gid's word...and getting His Truths, incorruptible Tuths, deep in my heart!!❤
Hi Kimcashtate, I was very blessed with your video, I just got my copy of His WORD in my Heart, and started reading it on the flight from Seattle to Dallas-Ft. Worth, TX. I am not sure ,if you know how strong the Word is coming out the other end of you video ministry is, but it's awesome. I am very skeptical of Church in the Seattle WA, seams a lot of ministers are preaching the Word out of season. But I do know the presents of the Holy Ghost. And that' what I feel when I hear your preaching. May our Lord Jesus Christ bless you and your family. your brother in Christ: Marcus.
I came back to the Lord in February after wasteful years. I came across this video because I had been to hide God’s word in my heart; that it would be a part of me. As you were talking about asking God for a chapter (if I remember correctly), Psalm 139 popped into my head as the chapter to start with. THEN YOU SAID PSALM 139! Wow! Thank you for making the video. It has given hope in something I thought I could never do because I did not know how.
These are some great tips, Kim! I particularly like the idea of "saying it with FEELING". For me, the more that I memorize and repeat a passage, the more I feel like I understand the tone of the author, and that gives me the confidence to "say it with feeling". I *feel it* when Paul speaks with frustration at the church of Galatians in chapter 4 (specifically verse 20). Thanks for sharing!!
Yes her hair is so beautiful, I don't know why our black women want to straighten their hair like white women's hair, we are set apart from the rest of humanity, we are the true Hebrews of the bible, who Christ will be coming back for. Shalom
Errol Collins Are white women the only ones with straight hair? I mainly wear my hair natural, but sometimes I like it straight. Variety is the spice of life.
Thank you!! I came across this video because I’m having a hard time memorizing my first book, 2 Timothy. I was doing a lot of this but differently. For example, one verse per index card. I think being able to see the previous verses will be more beneficial. I also Like the idea of “acting out” the verses rather than reading them as fast as I can. There’s no wrong way to learn the Word, but it’s been challenging to figure out the best way for me. Again, thank you and know that this video is still blessing others.
I had a conversation with a sister from church a couple of days ago. We were talking about scripture memorization and how we would love to memorize chapters of God's word. I organically found you teaching these tips today. Look at God! Bless you dear.
His Word In My Heart: leading ourselves to a closer walk with Jesus Suggest using Spiral Index Cards 2. I mayy not finish until Jesus returns but memorizing gods word gel 1. Prayerfully Choose A Book, Psalm, or passage a. What's been on your heart lately 2. Write Versus in Spiral Index Cards a. It's investing time engaging the word tangibly and practically b. Write the number and verse 3. Say It Out Loud a. You will discover your rhythm and unique voice in speaking gods word 4. Say it with feeling a. Like acting 🎭 in a play, spoken word, or audio performance b. Helps with a better understanding 5. Learn one verse at a tie. Say the same verse repeatedly throughout the day. b. In the car, doctor office, making a meal, exercising 6. Repeat 7. Review 8. Redeem The Time: look for moments to do scripture memory doing low-value activity laundry, chores, 9. Encourage yourself to keep going because the fruit is Amazing. "Not a checklist, but the God of the universe has a standing appoint we you!” 10. The goal is not the investment of memorization but growing a closer, intimate, and loving relationship with the Lord and Savior Jesus.
This is such a blessing! I recently retired and was beginning to get depressed and it was hard for me to adjust. My brother encouraged me to read the Word on RUclips. I haven't gone public yet but will be any day now. I am going to read the book of John which is very long. I have had a struggle getting it done and have now gotten through the first chapter. It so blessed me when you were saying how you put yourself into the characters, I am getting ready to do chapter two, but I got really into being John the Baptist and Jesus in chapter one. Its taken a long time and the ones I have done are not perfect but I think I may make them public even before they are perfect. I will get better as I go along. Thank you for your lesson about memorization. Just in reading what I have I see how it gets down in my spirit and I love it. I will be checking your other messages out as well. I am not that good at youtube but I am excited. My name is Virginia so be on the lookout for my readings. I am a little nervous about it, but you are a great encourager, thank you and be blessed!
Thank you Blessed Sister. As I was writing the 9 tips, I was so excited and waiting on the 10th tip :-) I have memorized scripture in the past but not whole books in which you have encouraged me to do. I even use parts of scriptures for passwords to help me. I pray God's continual and most richest blessings to you and your family.
Love this Kim. I've been memorizing for 18 years, just as you say. One chapter at a time. And you have explained this very well -- Memorization actuates an experience in the mind and heart. It makes God's word so real. And then after doing this for years, we actually can remember a verse when talking to someone -- a truth that was put in the heart years before, or maybe just last week. Thanks for explaining the process so well. I remember spending a year and a half on Romans 8. The scripture was so important for what I was going through at the time. It seems that even though it took so long, the transforming power of that chapter was so special. And yes, we may not have full recall of something we memorized 12 years ago, but the experience stays with us.
Thank you, that was so encouraging. It has been on my heart for a long time to learn scripture. I tried once before and nothing would stick. Like you said I had no system. I have learnt scripts in the past and assumed it would be easy to apply that to learning scripture, but no! My greatest take away from this was what you said about, "If it's on your heart then the Lord put it there!" That said the tips are good and encouraging too. Thank you again.
Wow!! I have had a desire to memorize scripture for quite a few years now but have felt that as i get older, it gets harder to memorize and as i get busier with children and work responsibilities I thought that im just “not good at it”. When really, I probably just haven’t devoted TIME to it. as you’ve discovered- it takes time! And what you said about Ephesians at the beginning- ive thought and felt that EXACT same way!! You said SO many incredible truths in this helpful video! I love what you said about it not being a check list but TIME with Him that will be powerful and fruitful. u said so many awesome things; thank u for doing this and sharing what you’ve learned. Its completely encouraged me to truly try it and see it as joyful time spent with Him and not a type if “task” like u so in school😉❤️
I love this video! So encouraging. My friend sent me this because I am memorizing Ephesians. The way that I review the chapters is : today I will review chpt 1 and then do the current chapter (I just started 6), then tomorrow I review chpt 2 and the current chpt.. The Holy Spirit brings the memorized word to my heart often. It is like stocking the arsenal that the Holy Spirit uses to encourage me, rebuke me, strengthen my faith.
A true blessing, thank you for sharing your wisdom ! This really encouraged and inspired me to not only memorize verses but also be more intentional about my walk and studying of the word.
I just realized you wrote this 6 years ago and this is still relevant! Some ladies in my Bible study are using your memorization tips as we study Jude. They’ve almost finished and last night they discussed how the memorization is helping them to better understand the text. I’ve decided to join them but I am starting in Philippians. Thank you for your ministry!
Bible memorisation is s a wonderful thing and helps us become the type of person referred to in Psalm 1. I have learned Mat 5, 6 and 7 this year and what a blessing it has been to me. I am currently on the sixth section of Ps 119 and am loving having God's word deep in my heart and mind. Thank you for this inspirational video - it is very encouraging indeed and I commend you for you devotion to the Word of God
Great practical tips! I haven’t worked on memorizing scripture seriously since I was a kid. The Lord has been prompting me to get back into it. I started with the book of Revelation but kinda feel overwhelmed. I think I’m going to move to a book like Colossians. May the Lord Bless you and keep you and make His face to shine upon you!
Wow. Amazing content. I loved it. Thanks much Kim. Continue to spread the Tips so that we are all able to memorize the Holy Bible. GOD BLESS US ALWAYS.
Hello, I just came across your video earlier today. It brought back memories as a little girl in Sunday school. The teacher would teach us to memorize whole chapters at a time. Now I am a grown woman, and those scriptures I have learned growing up, seem to stay with me more than the ones I am learning now. Listening to you today, give me a new tool to use, to help me captivate the scriptures to memory again. I have a deep hunger for more of God, and this will be a great blessing to me. Thanks again for availing yourself, so that the Lord will use you to be a blessing to others. Shalom, Shalom.
Awesome video! I stumbled across it just a little while ago and I'm so glad I did! Last year, I read a book called An Approach to Extended Memorization of Scripture by Andrew Davis and I decided to memorize the book of Titus. I started in November and got through the first 2 chapters before I became pregnant and morning sickness took over lol. I recently started again and even though much of what I previously memorized was foggy, it came back quickly once I became consistent again. My goal is to have it finished by the end of the year. I had to laugh at the tip about saying it with emotion because I was doing that and didn't even realize it! Thanks so much for sharing =)
+HairCandy Kina I love this! I know how it is to start memorizing and stall out because life gets in the way. :) But yes, I love that it comes back! And funny because I had memorized Titus but hadn't reviewed it in over a year. Just a couple of weeks ago, I took out my spiral index cards for Titus to review. Like you said, very foggy. ;-) But in no time, it was rolling off my tongue and back in my heart. Did you finish by the end of the year? :)
Yes! I finished on December 31st! God's word is true when it says the desire accomplished is a tree of life! It feels so good and I'm excited about moving on to another book. I'm thinking Ruth or one of John's epistles. How are things going with your scripture memory?
Hi Kim, I just found this video. Yea, I love it, wow! I have a blog for memorizers. May I use this video on my blog? And thank you for endorsing my book. BTW, I still use the 3x5 spirals. Janet Pope
Janet Pope Hi Janet! I am totally excited. :) You probably don't remember, but I contacted you years ago after I read your book, and you were so gracious in your encouragement to me. Thank you again! And I would be so honored for you to use this video on your blog. I will also check out your blog. Thank you for the inspiration that you are.
You will live long!! . Faith in the Word has become Spirit and life to me. It has saved me again and again from death!! Love you God bless you . Our Lord reigns . Jesus is Lord.
Thank you so much Kim ,you have really inspired me to begin today , what a wonderful fruitful talk, you have re ignited the desire in my heart to memorise The Word
you don't even know how these videos ha e helped me. in the last week I have learned the first two verses of Philemon and almost the third. it was so discouraging to try and fail. I would find a verse to learn and it just didn't stick or it would get all tangled up in my brain. the example you gave about acting out the passage as well as learning the verses knowing their context. I was told in elementary school that I have two learning disabilities. you don't even know how much your videos are helping me. Thank you.
+Judy Lenczycki Judy, I totally missed this! I'm so excited that this was helpful to you, especially since you'd been discouraged in the past. I'm rejoicing with you that you were able to start memorizing Philemon! May the Lord give continued grace.
Hi Kimcashtate, Of all the videos I've watched for memorizing scripture, you have the best lesson. And you were so funny too, entertaining, lol. And by the way, I'll bet you if you went back to revelations just to memorize chapter 4, your socks wouldn't need washing anymore. Thank you so much for sharing.
This is simply awesome! I am trying this. So far, I am loving it. Many Blessings to everyone who stands for Him. Also your speech is very clear and awesome, love the way you speak and teach. May He cont to Bless you to help others. I ask He Blesses me to cont to do the same.
This weekend I read the verse of the day that was found in 1st John. It was so powerful that I had to read the book of 1 John. Then I read through it 4 times before going to Church..since it just takes 15 minutes. Then I wanted to read it again after Church. It was such a blessing. I wonder if the Lord is wanting this to be my next lesson in prison ministry.
Part 1I have enjoyed Bible memorization for many years so I thought I would pass along something that has helped me a great deal. I noticed that without any real effort I learned the lyrics to many songs I listen to on the radio. So I purchased a copy of the Bible on CDs. For me it is important that I get a version that is not dramatized, since the dramatization implies a particular emotional content that may not be what is actually the authors intent. I copy the chapters of a particular book so that they are all on a single CD if possible and so there is no other book on the CD. This allows me to let the CD run to the end and then start at the beginning again. After listening to the entire book for a few weeks I find that I am able to learn the structure of the book, what the author's purpose is, what principles are being taught, and how the author deals with the objections his audience may raise.See part 2.
Oh THANK YOU❤❤❤❤ I'm in a "funk" was on cusp of break thru and poof ... went a couple of steps backward. I'm in a small group at church and this week talking about up communication. I think I had a negative experience in the past with scripture memorization. Now it's time to acknowledge it and move forward. This is the GOOD of the internet❤ Thank you again for sharing I have HOPE❤
You are amazing, insightful and hilarious 😂 I love the role play in the book of John regarding Jesus and the Samaritan woman. Thank you so much for sharing this. I can't wait to elevate my memorization and meditation this way ❤ and by the way I use coloured pens too, I was like atta girl woo hoo! It's not weird 😉...God bless you , you have the gift of encouragement.
Awww, this made me smile!.....praise God! Love your excitement for memorization/meditation and that we share a love for colored pens! 😊 Blessings to you too and so thankful for your sweet words of encouragement.
I love, love , love the acting out of the verses. I write a lot but still haven’t remembered what I wrote . You make this so exciting. Plus , I too write with colored pens. I’ve used notebook s , and I have index cards. Will use the cards! I also ordered the book. I am so excited to try your method. Thank you so much, found your video so excited to hear more from you. God bless you! Thanks for sharing!
These are good concepts. I will try this. The scripture is always something we need more of in our lives. It's something I want more of 💗 I've only done little verses here and there. I really like what you're saying 😌
Just stumbled on this for the very first time.Thank you so much for sharing. So encouraging, as its so important to know the Word of God for ourselves. The bible says "' let the word of God dwell in you richly"and you have just shown me how to go about it. I am grateful. Thanks again.
Oh wow! I've been memorizing scripture for many, many years. Beth Moore introduced me to the index cards and I love it. However, I HAVE NEVER thought about acting it out a little by giving expression. I LOVE THIS SO MUCH! Thank you!!!!
Great tips! I have used all of these since I was a young child in Awana but have not memorized any verses (much less full books) since graduating high school a few years ago. I recently realized I feel the need to continue this valuable practice both for myself and the children I teach/lead at church, same with personal bible study rather than just daily reading
I don't have a prayer journal. Well, actually I have a few journals that I started, but journaling is one thing I'm not consistent with. :) I look at prayer as simply talking to God, which I love to do throughout the day. I'm thankful you asked these questions because I'm planning to do a video on the power of praying Scripture, which is a great way to learn to pray.
"But THE WORD is very nigh unto thee, in thy mouth and in thy heart, that thou mayest do it." Deuteronomy 30:14 Very, very powerful teaching! YOU were so clear and the conviction is there that you believe wholeheartedly in what you are saying! I , too have tried to memorize Revelation. I got to chapter 1,2,3,11,19,21&22 - eventually I really want to know the whole book. Very effective teaching you gave! When you get to having many chapters under your belt it is so beneficial to purchase a voice digital recorder - I have several and go to bed listening to chapters that I have put on there, and keep one always near me. I walk for one to 2 hours a day and go over the Scriptures the entire time I walk with the digital voice recorder playing and recording. I laminate my chapters with contact paper so that I can take them with me anywhere. I could not have memorized nearly what I have for the last 30 years without my digital recorders. I have hundreds of verses on there, many hours worth of SCRIPTURE and this is how I maintain all of the verses that I have learned throughout my adult life. It is so encouraging for me to see these videos on the internet as I have never had anyone to help me with this, and it is so good that people can be helped and encouraged in this way. THE LORD HIMSELF has raised me up with memorization since I was born again in 1982, and it is true, we may miss weeks or months but we can always get back to it and that is the important part. Thank YOU, my Sister! "Sing them over again to me, wonderful words of life, let me more of their beauty see, wonderful words of life." I love that hymn and it is so true. The meditation and memorization brings such TRANSFORMATION TO OUR LIVES!!!! The best thing I have ever done with my life after making the LORD JESUS CHRIST my LORD and SAVIOR!! ""BIND THEM CONTINUALLY UPON THINE HEART, AND TIE THEM ABOUT THY NECK. WHEN THOU GOEST, IT SHALL LEAD THEE; WHEN THOU SLEEPESt, IT SHALL KEEP THEE; AND WHEN THOU AWAKEST, IT SHALL TALK TO THEE. FOR THE COMMANDMENTS IS A LAMP, AND THE LAW IS LIGHT, AND REPROOFS OF INSTRUCTION ARE THE WAY OF LIFE." Proverbs 6:21-23
I just want you to know that I admire how you are detailed in your explanations. You truly show the hands con, not just giving us tips vaguely. You give it more substance.
I just found your videos and I love them. They are just what I've been looking for. I'm looking forward to FINALLY start studying and memorizing the Bible, like I've wanted to do for a long while.
TEACHING & SINGING Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. Colossians 3:16 NKJV
This is very inspiring. Not sure how your video landed in my recommended list but I'm glad it did. Funny thing is I had just started re-memorising John a few days ago and I believe your tips will help me stay on it this time. God bless you and thanks again for sharing
Miss. Kim, I just watched this video after the 10 Essentials of Studying the Bible video, these two seem to go hand in hand. I have been watching some of your videos these past two days, and they have been inspiring and helpful. I am glad that God has touched your life for the purpose of you doing what you do, because it is a blessing to others.
+Shirley Smith Shirley, I am thanking God that you have found the videos inspiring and helpful. That's such a blessing! Thank you so much for taking the time to watch and for your kind, encouraging words. xoxo
Excellent! Thank you so much! I memorize similarly, especially your point 4. A little dramatic feeling for the passage can help understanding tremendously. But at the end, the work put into memorizing God's Word is life-changing, as you said. May God bless you, Kim!
Fantastic video! I recently memorized Ephesians 2: 8-10 which was so satisfying given that I have a terrible memory! But these techniques you've given are brilliant and I can't wait to get started on a larger section. For anybody reading this, I have regular out of body experiences (and now understand them in light of St Teresa of Avila's Interior Castle) and can attest that having the Word in your soul is incredibly empowering and disruptive to the enemy.
Hello, I just want to say thank you. I just found you today and a challenging day it has been. I've been praying a lot lately to God asking for help to draw closer to him and to learn his word more. I have also prayed for more Christian people especially women to enter my life and help me to grow in his word and as a Christian woman of God. So thank you! I can learn a lot from your videos.
I just memorized my first chapter in the Bible! God put it on my heart to memorize Colossians Chapter 3. It’s a solid chapter packed with essential guidelines! What inspired me was this: I had remembered the poem: “The Road Not Taken” by Robert Frost over 20 years ago word for word. Till this day, I still remember the entire poem word for word. I thought to myself (back in December of 2019): ‘if I can remember a worldly poem down to the T, then why could I not memorize scripture - the most important Word this world has ever known? I believe it was the Holy Spirit who prompted that thought in me, and so I began my journey of memorizing scripture so that it becomes etched on my heart. ❤️
Thank you so much for this video. I'm so glad I found it. A couple days ago I visited an old man from my church with the youth group. He can't read because he has poor eye sight now. It it is amazing to see how he remains in the word and has so much Scripture memorized. He really inspired me to memorize Scripture, and today I find this video in my recommended.
I am relatively new to bible memorization. I was inspired to do so through Derek Prince. He and his wife use verses as proclamations. I started with a few verses from his messages. I now have a couple of chapters of Psalm memorized. Entire books seem impossible but praise the Lord...with Him nothing is impossible! I'll make mole hills out of the mountain and just start at the first verse! Thank you for the tips! Very encouraging and helpful. God bless you and continue to enrich you as you keep His words in the midst of your heart (Proverbs 4:21)
A couple of days ago, I was riding in a friend's car and she was playing oldies from the 60's and I remembered song after song after song. It made me a little angry because I can't remember scriptures like that! I felt a little sad about it - fast forward to tonight, looking for something else and I see your title and decide to watch the video. I am encouraged! I can't say that I will memorize chapters and books, but I will remember verses for sure that I want to be able to recall. Thank you for sharing and giving me encouragement to move forward!
This video really blessed me..I immediately ordered,His Word In My Heart..that book is the best book I ever read my spirit is truly being fed..thanks for sharing.. And I love your teaching..
So practical and encouraging! Thank you for getting right to the point in your videos. You give so much great information and insight without all of the fluff. I appreciate that you convey the meat of the matter so concisely yet so relationally. It is one of your many gifts!

Thank you
I've memorized Ps.119. NKJV. It took me 6 months to memorize and 6 months to retain. Thank You, Jesus...
I believe that is the longest psalm.
Girl, you have blessed me, I know that I am anointed to preach Gods word, Once I taken your method that you have implemented, it has taken me to another level in God it is powerful, fun and interesting. I have no husband nor any children at home I have nothing but time. Gods word is spirit and is life, I have started praying the word as well my joy is full I am happier you are a God sent there is no depression in God. I spend hours with God, soon after the devil attacked me and I knew right away the reason, I put the word of God on him so quick and he left immediately I sent him on his way quick and in a hurry. There are times God will wake me up in the morning and start speaking to me, God is just Awesome. Thank you so much and continue to let God use. JoAnn

Good Gods Day,

That is so cool
Encouraging to hear sister 🕊🙏🏼
I started with chapters when I was living in Arizona away from my family. This helped to fill the loneliness I felt while living there.
This really helped and encouraged me! I just started my first book: James. Thanks for reminding me the point is not memorization; it’s to be closer to the Lord! God bless you, sister!
Gosh, James of all the books in the Bible. Once you're done, please pick Galatians ...
@@christianeberhart8568 haha
I memorized James by just repeating over and over and it's super great because it's easier to integrate scripture into conversation. I'm returning to this video for when I try to memorize Ephesians the next 3months
good job Julia
I'm here to help me memorize scripture of course- we're having a quiz on James later in the year - oh wow!
Congrats! I want to memorize James also!
Wow! Sounds like a great idea!
this is amazing, I am really excited, I have memorized several psalms and scriptures but i never i have thought of memorizing entire books, it is amazing, i can't wait to start tomorrow God first. pray for me.
This is motivating!!! I’ve always said I can’t memorize and that’s a lie. With Christ all things are possible!!! I’m going to start with Psalm 1. There we are told what a delight it is to mediate day and night on his law. How perfect is that for memorizing God’s Word. Thank you for making it all seem doable.
Part 2 Once I have become familiar with the whole book I then set up my CD player to repeat a single chapter over and over. I find that I don't actually try to memorize the book so much as it just happens on it's own. After a while I can recite the chapter while I'm listening to it. Another thing that I do is to outline the chapter from memory so that I don't just know the text but also have a clear sense of the meaning. I will also do a one minute summary, a three minute summary and a five minute summery of each chapter. Each increase in the length of summery allows me to include more detail. The first book I memorized was Paul's letter to the Romans. It took me about two years, but it made such a big impact on my understanding of the Christian life that I was hooked. Thank you so much for your videos. You've given me a lot of great ideas and tips to include in my memorization and Bible study. May the Lord bless you abundantly!
Hi, I was just reading your reply and wanted to invite you to my new facebook group "Scripture Memory Encouragement and Help." I know you could offer a lot of help to those who are just starting out. Would love to have you! You can search for it and then click "join" and I will approve you. =)
2 Cor. 5:15 Life I would love love LOVE to be a part of your Facebook group, if you don't mind! That sounds like just what I need!!!
jeetkunedobrown thank you soooooooooo much I will definitely try that as well have a blessed day!!!!😄😃😀🙂
Composing an outline and summaries sounds like a profitable idea! Thank you very much for the tips!
Even if I don't memorise complete books of the Bible,I can at least remember more scriptures! Amen! What a blessing you are!
Girl!!! Within the first 2 words of you speaking I subscribed!!
There is something very blessed about you. I very quickly felt that I recognized your spirit...It is the Spirit of God. Thank you for the great tips!!
Jesus bless
"/.../those verses are in the fibre of your being." I love the way you put it!
I feel as if i have found my own personal tutor in you :) Thank you.
When you showed your hand written copy, it reminded me of Deuteronomy 17:18 "When he [King of Israel] takes the throne of his kingdom, he is to write for himself on a scroll a copy of this law, taken from that of the Levitical priests. It is to be with him, and he is to read it all the days of his life so that he may learn to revere the LORD his God and follow carefully all the words of this law and these decrees and not consider himself better than his fellow Israelites and turn from the law to the right or to the left. Then he and his descendants will reign a long time over his kingdom in Israel. " SO YOUR SUGGESTIONS were GOD's LAW for the King. God even teaches us how to memorize and meditate!! Love it.
It is a commandment for the king but unfortunately it is not followed
I just discovered your videos today! Love them! I have been memorizing scripture for years. It is truly the lamp to my feet & light of my path. Your video encourage some things I've been doing but added some new things for me to try. I plan to add the spiral note card book & colored pens. Thank you! Stay on your assignment! You are truly blessed and a blessing!!!
+AMaineZingLife I don't know why I'm just seeing this, but I love that you've already known the blessings of memorization! So glad you found something here to try. Praying continued blessings as you hide the Word in your heart!
Maybe some day you will actually educate yourself and comprehend the idea that memorizing fairy tales is a long way from intellectual pursuits.
Amen to that 🙏 Sis 💕
@@bradcrampton8920 It sounds far-fetched, but believing is seeing: consistently reading, memorizing, and thinking about Scripture changes you fundamentally (not a pun). I've never encountered any other book that has had such a profound impact on my character and my life. His words are Spirit, not merely ink on a page; they have real power. That is one of the many facts (along with history, archeology, and scientific knowledge) testifying to the authenticity of Scripture.
@@mcginnisdmm1253 If you dont understand bias, magical thinking and the ability of the human mind to create experience, it seems legit but over the years the feelings fade and if one is honest they discover that the god they are loving is something they have created and they could have created other gods and imaginations to make their life seem more fulfilling but they are caught in the web of the cultural god that dominates where they live, in our case Jesus and America.
I love this so much!! Especially when you said to say it with feeling because I was able to memorize a chapter in about a week because I would recite it like I was in a poetry slam show. ❤ love, love, love this. Thank you for sharing. Praying all is well with you and may the Lord continue to bless you, your family and your memory.
You should be a audio Bible voice over. Also this is very inspiring, I will get my zeal back through this, your ministry is a blessing xx
So encouraging. For the last five years I've been memorizing larger passages of Scripture, but gave it up last year when life was overwhelming. Thanks for the nudge to get back on track.
This really works! Thanks a ton. I've now got ephesians 1:1-12 down and it's so good repeat it all the time - on my bike, in the shower, in the car, where ever - because the words start to sink in and become so meaningful and beloved to me.
Thank you so much for posting this. At the age of 51 I decided after all these years of being in church, and only knowing Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, but I really wanted to learn the books of the Bible. So thankful I found you and was able to quickly learn the books of the Bible. You are a treasure.❤
I first saw this video a couple of months ago and figured I would give it a try to bring more INTENTION to my Bible verse memorization. While I had quite a few well known verses memorized, I wanted to bring more scripture into my memory. I used some of your techniques (the spiral notebook is golden!!!!) and in the last 2 months I have memorized soooo much more scripture!!! Your technique has really worked for me and has helped me in my prayer time as I like to pray scripture. Thanks for this video. God Bless you.
Oh, I love this! I'm rejoicing with you! I know you are experiencing amazing fruit from scripture memorization, as well as from praying scripture. Praise God! Thank you so much for letting me know. This blesses me so much. May the Lord continue to bless you as you draw near to Him through scripture memory and prayer!
@@kimcashtate Thank you Kim your you tubing is excellent l don't remember how l found your you tube page . But it is excellent
Thank you for your video! It has really encouraged me to get back to memorising the scripture again. Like you said, I feel strongly about it not only for all the reasons you laid out but also because I believe there will be a day where there will be no more Bibles. If His word is in my heart no one can ever take the Bible away from me. Thank you again!
+truluvw8ts73 So true. We are blessed to have an abundance of Bibles, but we never know when that privilege could be taken. Hiding the word in our hearts is such a rich blessing.
This woman is truly a blessed and beautiful woman of God a man with a Godly woman is a treasure
I wish I could repost this all over the World, I often go back over my Playlist of KimCashTate memorable and impact full teachings, and studies....This is one of my favorites, one of....never gets old to me, and gets me back on track, with the importance of meditating on Gid's word...and getting His Truths, incorruptible Tuths, deep in my heart!!❤
Hi Kimcashtate, I was very blessed with your video, I just got my copy of His WORD in my Heart, and started reading it on the flight from Seattle to Dallas-Ft. Worth, TX. I am not sure ,if you know how strong the Word is coming out the other end of you video ministry is, but it's awesome. I am very skeptical of Church in the Seattle WA, seams a lot of ministers are preaching the Word out of season. But I do know the presents of the Holy Ghost. And that' what I feel when I hear your preaching. May our Lord Jesus Christ bless you and your family. your brother in Christ: Marcus.

I came back to the Lord in February after wasteful years. I came across this video because I had been to hide God’s word in my heart; that it would be a part of me. As you were talking about asking God for a chapter (if I remember correctly), Psalm 139 popped into my head as the chapter to start with. THEN YOU SAID PSALM 139! Wow! Thank you for making the video. It has given hope in something I thought I could never do because I did not know how.
These are some great tips, Kim! I particularly like the idea of "saying it with FEELING". For me, the more that I memorize and repeat a passage, the more I feel like I understand the tone of the author, and that gives me the confidence to "say it with feeling". I *feel it* when Paul speaks with frustration at the church of Galatians in chapter 4 (specifically verse 20). Thanks for sharing!!
That tip stuck out to me too! :)
This has really encouraged me to read the Bible! Thank you! God bless you!
Your hair is gorgeous
Yes her hair is so beautiful, I don't know why our black women want to straighten their hair like white women's hair, we are set apart from the rest of humanity, we are the true Hebrews of the bible, who Christ will be coming back for. Shalom
Errol Collins Are white women the only ones with straight hair? I mainly wear my hair natural, but sometimes I like it straight. Variety is the spice of life.
Its so perfect
I know!! I can't stop looking at it!

God Bless you sister! You have inspired me. It is so refreshing to Christians truly cherishing God's Word. Thank you!
Thank you!! I came across this video because I’m having a hard time memorizing my first book, 2 Timothy. I was doing a lot of this but differently. For example, one verse per index card. I think being able to see the previous verses will be more beneficial. I also Like the idea of “acting out” the verses rather than reading them as fast as I can. There’s no wrong way to learn the Word, but it’s been challenging to figure out the best way for me. Again, thank you and know that this video is still blessing others.
I had a conversation with a sister from church a couple of days ago. We were talking about scripture memorization and how we would love to memorize chapters of God's word. I organically found you teaching these tips today. Look at God! Bless you dear.
That’s so awesome. God is faithful! Blessings to you 💚
His Word In My Heart: leading ourselves to a closer walk with Jesus
Suggest using Spiral Index Cards
2. I mayy not finish until Jesus returns but memorizing gods word gel
1. Prayerfully Choose A Book, Psalm, or passage a. What's been on your heart lately
2. Write Versus in Spiral Index Cards a. It's investing time engaging the word tangibly and practically
b. Write the number and verse
3. Say It Out Loud
a. You will discover your rhythm and unique voice in speaking gods word
4. Say it with feeling a. Like acting 🎭 in a play, spoken word, or audio performance
b. Helps with a better understanding
5. Learn one verse at a tie. Say the same verse repeatedly throughout the day.
b. In the car, doctor office, making a meal, exercising
6. Repeat
7. Review
8. Redeem The Time: look for moments to do scripture memory doing low-value activity laundry, chores,
9. Encourage yourself to keep going because the fruit is Amazing. "Not a checklist, but the God of the universe has a standing appoint we you!”
10. The goal is not the investment of memorization but growing a closer, intimate, and loving relationship with the Lord and Savior Jesus.
Derick Butler thank you
Thank you!!
How kind of you to do this for us!Thank you!☺
This is such a blessing! I recently retired and was beginning to get depressed and it was hard for me to adjust. My brother encouraged me to read the Word on RUclips. I haven't gone public yet but will be any day now. I am going to read the book of John which is very long. I have had a struggle getting it done and have now gotten through the first chapter. It so blessed me when you were saying how you put yourself into the characters, I am getting ready to do chapter two, but I got really into being John the Baptist and Jesus in chapter one. Its taken a long time and the ones I have done are not perfect but I think I may make them public even before they are perfect. I will get better as I go along. Thank you for your lesson about memorization. Just in reading what I have I see how it gets down in my spirit and I love it. I will be checking your other messages out as well. I am not that good at youtube but I am excited. My name is Virginia so be on the lookout for my readings. I am a little nervous about it, but you are a great encourager, thank you and be blessed!
Thank you Blessed Sister. As I was writing the 9 tips, I was so excited and waiting on the 10th tip :-) I have memorized scripture in the past but not whole books in which you have encouraged me to do. I even use parts of scriptures for passwords to help me. I pray God's continual and most richest blessings to you and your family.
Love this Kim. I've been memorizing for 18 years, just as you say. One chapter at a time. And you have explained this very well -- Memorization actuates an experience in the mind and heart. It makes God's word so real. And then after doing this for years, we actually can remember a verse when talking to someone -- a truth that was put in the heart years before, or maybe just last week. Thanks for explaining the process so well. I remember spending a year and a half on Romans 8. The scripture was so important for what I was going through at the time. It seems that even though it took so long, the transforming power of that chapter was so special. And yes, we may not have full recall of something we memorized 12 years ago, but the experience stays with us.
Thank you, that was so encouraging. It has been on my heart for a long time to learn scripture. I tried once before and nothing would stick. Like you said I had no system. I have learnt scripts in the past and assumed it would be easy to apply that to learning scripture, but no!
My greatest take away from this was what you said about, "If it's on your heart then the Lord put it there!" That said the tips are good and encouraging too. Thank you again.
Wow!! I have had a desire to memorize scripture for quite a few years now but have felt that as i get older, it gets harder to memorize and as i get busier with children and work responsibilities I thought that im just “not good at it”. When really, I probably just haven’t devoted TIME to it. as you’ve discovered- it takes time!
And what you said about Ephesians at the beginning- ive thought and felt that EXACT same way!! You said SO many incredible truths in this helpful video! I love what you said about it not being a check list but TIME with Him that will be powerful and fruitful. u said so many awesome things; thank u for doing this and sharing what you’ve learned. Its completely encouraged me to truly try it and see it as joyful time spent with Him and not a type if “task” like u so in school😉❤️
Psalm 91 is awesome
HRD 77 I have said this as a prayer for protection everyday that I've totally memorized it
Memorizing now 😊
I love this video! So encouraging. My friend sent me this because I am memorizing Ephesians. The way that I review the chapters is : today I will review chpt 1 and then do the current chapter (I just started 6), then tomorrow I review chpt 2 and the current chpt.. The Holy Spirit brings the memorized word to my heart often. It is like stocking the arsenal that the Holy Spirit uses to encourage me, rebuke me, strengthen my faith.
A true blessing, thank you for sharing your wisdom ! This really encouraged and inspired me to not only memorize verses but also be more intentional about my walk and studying of the word.
I just realized you wrote this 6 years ago and this is still relevant! Some ladies in my Bible study are using your memorization tips as we study Jude. They’ve almost finished and last night they discussed how the memorization is helping them to better understand the text. I’ve decided to join them but I am starting in Philippians. Thank you for your ministry!
"Lord, you have searched me and known me" is sealed in my heart💜
One of my favorites, along with Ps 103, Ps 46, Is 53....
This is the one I'm memorizing right now. Powerful!
Bible memorisation is s a wonderful thing and helps us become the type of person referred to in Psalm 1. I have learned Mat 5, 6 and 7 this year and what a blessing it has been to me. I am currently on the sixth section of Ps 119 and am loving having God's word deep in my heart and mind. Thank you for this inspirational video - it is very encouraging indeed and I commend you for you devotion to the Word of God
Great tips! And I could listen to you read or recite bible versesfor hours... beautiful voice.
All of these tips are great but, #4 is it for me! Thank you
I love your passion love your passion for the word of God Thanks for sharing
Great practical tips! I haven’t worked on memorizing scripture seriously since I was a kid. The Lord has been prompting me to get back into it. I started with the book of Revelation but kinda feel overwhelmed. I think I’m going to move to a book like Colossians. May the Lord Bless you and keep you and make His face to shine upon you!
Wow. Amazing content. I loved it. Thanks much Kim. Continue to spread the Tips so that we are all able to memorize the Holy Bible. GOD BLESS US ALWAYS.
Hello, I just came across your video earlier today. It brought back memories as a little girl in Sunday school. The teacher would teach us to memorize whole chapters at a time. Now I am a grown woman, and those scriptures I have learned growing up, seem to stay with me more than the ones I am learning now. Listening to you today, give me a new tool to use, to help me captivate the scriptures to memory again. I have a deep hunger for more of God, and this will be a great blessing to me. Thanks again for availing yourself, so that the Lord will use you to be a blessing to others.
Shalom, Shalom.
THANKS 100, I always had a great passion for the Word, but I was never good at memorizing. Thanks so much for tools....BLESSINGS
Praying God's blessings upon you as you write His word on your heart!
I don't memorize alot,GOD leads my path
Thank you all I want is to be closer to God abide in Him consistently
Awesome video! I stumbled across it just a little while ago and I'm so glad I did! Last year, I read a book called An Approach to Extended Memorization of Scripture by Andrew Davis and I decided to memorize the book of Titus. I started in November and got through the first 2 chapters before I became pregnant and morning sickness took over lol. I recently started again and even though much of what I previously memorized was foggy, it came back quickly once I became consistent again. My goal is to have it finished by the end of the year. I had to laugh at the tip about saying it with emotion because I was doing that and didn't even realize it! Thanks so much for sharing =)
+HairCandy Kina I love this! I know how it is to start memorizing and stall out because life gets in the way. :) But yes, I love that it comes back! And funny because I had memorized Titus but hadn't reviewed it in over a year. Just a couple of weeks ago, I took out my spiral index cards for Titus to review. Like you said, very foggy. ;-) But in no time, it was rolling off my tongue and back in my heart. Did you finish by the end of the year? :)
Yes! I finished on December 31st! God's word is true when it says the desire accomplished is a tree of life! It feels so good and I'm excited about moving on to another book. I'm thinking Ruth or one of John's epistles. How are things going with your scripture memory?
Maybe someday you'll figure out that memorizing stuff is not quite an act of thinking.
Tremendous advice, method, and wisdom in action. How blessed you are to have God's word welded into your brain and heart.
Hi Kim, I just found this video. Yea, I love it, wow! I have a blog for memorizers. May I use this video on my blog? And thank you for endorsing my book. BTW, I still use the 3x5 spirals. Janet Pope
Janet Pope Hi Janet! I am totally excited. :) You probably don't remember, but I contacted you years ago after I read your book, and you were so gracious in your encouragement to me. Thank you again! And I would be so honored for you to use this video on your blog. I will also check out your blog. Thank you for the inspiration that you are.
Menlo
lo
Ian blessed.
You will live long!!
. Faith in the Word has become Spirit and life to me. It has saved me again and again from death!!
Love you God bless you .
Our Lord reigns .
Jesus is Lord.
love it just found you now all my friends get sent your videos ❤
Thank you so much Kim ,you have really inspired me to begin today , what a wonderful fruitful talk, you have re ignited the desire in my heart to memorise The Word
you don't even know how these videos ha e helped me. in the last week I have learned the first two verses of Philemon and almost the third. it was so discouraging to try and fail. I would find a verse to learn and it just didn't stick or it would get all tangled up in my brain. the example you gave about acting out the passage as well as learning the verses knowing their context. I was told in elementary school that I have two learning disabilities. you don't even know how much your videos are helping me. Thank you.
+Judy Lenczycki Judy, I totally missed this! I'm so excited that this was helpful to you, especially since you'd been discouraged in the past. I'm rejoicing with you that you were able to start memorizing Philemon! May the Lord give continued grace.
Hi Kimcashtate, Of all the videos I've watched for memorizing scripture, you have the best lesson. And you were so funny too, entertaining, lol. And by the way, I'll bet you if you went back to revelations just to memorize chapter 4, your socks wouldn't need washing anymore. Thank you so much for sharing.
This is simply awesome! I am trying this. So far, I am loving it. Many Blessings to everyone who stands for Him.
Also your speech is very clear and awesome, love the way you speak and teach. May He cont to Bless you to help others. I ask He Blesses me to cont to do the same.
This weekend I read the verse of the day that was found in 1st John. It was so powerful that I had to read the book of 1 John. Then I read through it 4 times before going to Church..since it just takes 15 minutes. Then I wanted to read it again after Church. It was such a blessing. I wonder if the Lord is wanting this to be my next lesson in prison ministry.
Part 1I have enjoyed Bible memorization for many years so I thought I would pass along something that has helped me a great deal. I noticed that without any real effort I learned the lyrics to many songs I listen to on the radio. So I purchased a copy of the Bible on CDs. For me it is important that I get a version that is not dramatized, since the dramatization implies a particular emotional content that may not be what is actually the authors intent. I copy the chapters of a particular book so that they are all on a single CD if possible and so there is no other book on the CD. This allows me to let the CD run to the end and then start at the beginning again. After listening to the entire book for a few weeks I find that I am able to learn the structure of the book, what the author's purpose is, what principles are being taught, and how the author deals with the objections his audience may raise.See part 2.
Oh THANK YOU❤❤❤❤ I'm in a "funk" was on cusp of break thru and poof ... went a couple of steps backward. I'm in a small group at church and this week talking about up communication. I think I had a negative experience in the past with scripture memorization. Now it's time to acknowledge it and move forward. This is the GOOD of the internet❤ Thank you again for sharing I have HOPE❤
You are amazing, insightful and hilarious 😂 I love the role play in the book of John regarding Jesus and the Samaritan woman. Thank you so much for sharing this. I can't wait to elevate my memorization and meditation this way ❤ and by the way I use coloured pens too, I was like atta girl woo hoo! It's not weird 😉...God bless you , you have the gift of encouragement.
Awww, this made me smile!.....praise God! Love your excitement for memorization/meditation and that we share a love for colored pens! 😊 Blessings to you too and so thankful for your sweet words of encouragement.
I love, love , love the acting out of the verses. I write a lot but still haven’t remembered what I wrote . You make this so exciting. Plus , I too write with colored pens. I’ve used notebook s , and I have index cards. Will use the cards! I also ordered the book. I am so excited to try your method. Thank you so much, found your video so excited to hear more from you. God bless you! Thanks for sharing!
These are good concepts. I will try this. The scripture is always something we need more of in our lives. It's something I want more of 💗 I've only done little verses here and there. I really like what you're saying 😌
So awesome! Love it! It’s a truly a blessing to memorize scripture!❤
Thank you sister, I have been blessed with your video. Blessings!
Just stumbled on this for the very first time.Thank you so much for sharing. So encouraging, as its so important to know the Word of God for ourselves. The bible says "' let the word of God dwell in you richly"and you have just shown me how to go about it. I am grateful. Thanks again.
Thank you, I loved how your put this all together, it was very inspirational and heart felt reality throughout :)
Praising God....so thankful!
Oh wow! I've been memorizing scripture for many, many years. Beth Moore introduced me to the index cards and I love it. However, I HAVE NEVER thought about acting it out a little by giving expression. I LOVE THIS SO MUCH! Thank you!!!!
Wow wowowowowow!!! Beautiful!! Jesus you are wonderful!! Thank you sister, greetings from Nazareth Israel
Great tips! I have used all of these since I was a young child in Awana but have not memorized any verses (much less full books) since graduating high school a few years ago. I recently realized I feel the need to continue this valuable practice both for myself and the children I teach/lead at church, same with personal bible study rather than just daily reading
God bless you , congratulations!
This was amazing! Thank you for taking the time to show us how to memorize God's word.
Do you have a prayer journal. How did you become consistent in prayer? How do you know how to pray.
I don't have a prayer journal. Well, actually I have a few journals that I started, but journaling is one thing I'm not consistent with. :) I look at prayer as simply talking to God, which I love to do throughout the day. I'm thankful you asked these questions because I'm planning to do a video on the power of praying Scripture, which is a great way to learn to pray.
"But THE WORD is very nigh unto thee, in thy mouth and in thy heart, that thou mayest do it." Deuteronomy 30:14 Very, very powerful teaching! YOU were so clear and the conviction is there that you believe wholeheartedly in what you are saying! I , too have tried to memorize Revelation. I got to chapter 1,2,3,11,19,21&22 - eventually I really want to know the whole book. Very effective teaching you gave! When you get to having many chapters under your belt it is so beneficial to purchase a voice digital recorder - I have several and go to bed listening to chapters that I have put on there, and keep one always near me. I walk for one to 2 hours a day and go over the Scriptures the entire time I walk with the digital voice recorder playing and recording. I laminate my chapters with contact paper so that I can take them with me anywhere. I could not have memorized nearly what I have for the last 30 years without my digital recorders. I have hundreds of verses on there, many hours worth of SCRIPTURE and this is how I maintain all of the verses that I have learned throughout my adult life. It is so encouraging for me to see these videos on the internet as I have never had anyone to help me with this, and it is so good that people can be helped and encouraged in this way. THE LORD HIMSELF has raised me up with memorization since I was born again in 1982, and it is true, we may miss weeks or months but we can always get back to it and that is the important part. Thank YOU, my Sister! "Sing them over again to me, wonderful words of life, let me more of their beauty see, wonderful words of life." I love that hymn and it is so true. The meditation and memorization brings such TRANSFORMATION TO OUR LIVES!!!! The best thing I have ever done with my life after making the LORD JESUS CHRIST my LORD and SAVIOR!! ""BIND THEM CONTINUALLY UPON THINE HEART, AND TIE THEM ABOUT THY NECK. WHEN THOU GOEST, IT SHALL LEAD THEE; WHEN THOU SLEEPESt, IT SHALL KEEP THEE; AND WHEN THOU AWAKEST, IT SHALL TALK TO THEE. FOR THE COMMANDMENTS IS A LAMP, AND THE LAW IS LIGHT, AND REPROOFS OF INSTRUCTION ARE THE WAY OF LIFE." Proverbs 6:21-23
am trusting God that this will help me....
I just want you to know that I admire how you are detailed in your explanations. You truly show the hands con, not just giving us tips vaguely. You give it more substance.
That's such a blessing to hear! Thanks so much for that encouragement. :)
😂 I thought I was the only one who get into character. I love it be encouraged.
I just found your videos and I love them. They are just what I've been looking for. I'm looking forward to FINALLY start studying and memorizing the Bible, like I've wanted to do for a long while.
TEACHING & SINGING
Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.

I listen to the Bible while walking, I wish you were my narrator!!
You're so cute!!💞 🙂
This is very inspiring. Not sure how your video landed in my recommended list but I'm glad it did. Funny thing is I had just started re-memorising John a few days ago and I believe your tips will help me stay on it this time. God bless you and thanks again for sharing
Miss. Kim, I just watched this video after the 10 Essentials of Studying the Bible video, these two seem to go hand in hand. I have been watching some of your videos these past two days, and they have been inspiring and helpful. I am glad that God has touched your life for the purpose of you doing what you do, because it is a blessing to others.
+Shirley Smith Shirley, I am thanking God that you have found the videos inspiring and helpful. That's such a blessing! Thank you so much for taking the time to watch and for your kind, encouraging words. xoxo
Excellent! Thank you so much! I memorize similarly, especially your point 4. A little dramatic feeling for the passage can help understanding tremendously. But at the end, the work put into memorizing God's Word is life-changing, as you said. May God bless you, Kim!
I certainly hope so, I always have a trouble of memorizing, thanks for the 9 tips. Bless you
Fantastic video! I recently memorized Ephesians 2: 8-10 which was so satisfying given that I have a terrible memory! But these techniques you've given are brilliant and I can't wait to get started on a larger section.
For anybody reading this, I have regular out of body experiences (and now understand them in light of St Teresa of Avila's Interior Castle) and can attest that having the Word in your soul is incredibly empowering and disruptive to the enemy.
Hello, I just want to say thank you. I just found you today and a challenging day it has been. I've been praying a lot lately to God asking for help to draw closer to him and to learn his word more. I have also prayed for more Christian people especially women to enter my life and help me to grow in his word and as a Christian woman of God. So thank you! I can learn a lot from your videos.
I just memorized my first chapter in the Bible! God put it on my heart to memorize Colossians Chapter 3. It’s a solid chapter packed with essential guidelines! What inspired me was this: I had remembered the poem: “The Road Not Taken” by Robert Frost over 20 years ago word for word. Till this day, I still remember the entire poem word for word. I thought to myself (back in December of 2019): ‘if I can remember a worldly poem down to the T, then why could I not memorize scripture - the most important Word this world has ever known? I believe it was the Holy Spirit who prompted that thought in me, and so I began my journey of memorizing scripture so that it becomes etched on my heart. ❤️
Amen thank you for your explanation on the practical application of Bible study. You have explained it in such an intuitive way.
Thank you so much for this video. I'm so glad I found it. A couple days ago I visited an old man from my church with the youth group. He can't read because he has poor eye sight now. It it is amazing to see how he remains in the word and has so much Scripture memorized. He really inspired me to memorize Scripture, and today I find this video in my recommended.
I am relatively new to bible memorization. I was inspired to do so through Derek Prince. He and his wife use verses as proclamations. I started with a few verses from his messages. I now have a couple of chapters of Psalm memorized. Entire books seem impossible but praise the Lord...with Him nothing is impossible! I'll make mole hills out of the mountain and just start at the first verse! Thank you for the tips! Very encouraging and helpful. God bless you and continue to enrich you as you keep His words in the midst of your heart (Proverbs 4:21)
A couple of days ago, I was riding in a friend's car and she was playing oldies from the 60's and I remembered song after song after song. It made me a little angry because I can't remember scriptures like that! I felt a little sad about it - fast forward to tonight, looking for something else and I see your title and decide to watch the video. I am encouraged! I can't say that I will memorize chapters and books, but I will remember verses for sure that I want to be able to recall. Thank you for sharing and giving me encouragement to move forward!
Thank you. I'm researching, praying and seeking how to incorporate bible memory practice into my life. Thank you for your prayers.
This video really blessed me..I immediately ordered,His Word In My Heart..that book is the best book I ever read my spirit is truly being fed..thanks for sharing.. And I love your teaching..
