I am considering reading the Bible in a year, starting January 1, 2022. If I start reading for a year from your site, will it start with the book of Genesis? I was initially thinking of starting with the book of Genesis to Revelation. What is the best way to get a better understanding of reading the Bible? I have tried to read the entire Bible, but never met that goal. I will be reading KJV.

Thank you all for this Bible study and word of God!

I wanna say thank you to all my prayer warrior . This pleases God continue to follow his command.prayer changes things as some of you may know my story.I am a 46 year old woman waiting on the heart transplant list. My kidneys have been affected as well .But I will not give up God is telling me I shall live and not die . Prayer warrior keep doing what you doing we need you. Amen

please remember myself and my daughters in your prayers, please pray for my daughter Deanna she has covid and was admitted in the hospital yesterday, please pray for Gary Long he has a kidney issue and been in and out of the hospital, please pray for tom's granddaughter she has had very serious brain surgery and is only 14 months old, please pray for Kristie . pray for my lost coworkers and Delamr he is so full of hate and such a foul mouth he is so lost

A prayer of agreement for Deliverance, guidance, favor, discernment, godly decision making, petitions answered according to the will of the God and Father of my Lord Jesus Christ.

I am a bit confused with Genesis 4:16. Adam and Eve were the first people created by God and their first children were Cain and Abel. Cain killed Abel being the first murder case to be recorded. God punished Cain and Cain being afraid begged not to be killed and God put a mark on cain. Who were the people Cain was scared of of being killed by them? When were people in the land of Nod, east of Eden created? Where and who were the parent of Cain's wife?

I believe the tongue can be tamed by teaching ourselves to say only good things.

Dear "Kim Jackson".

Mark 11:23 For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.

24 Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.

25 And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses.

26 But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses.

Actually personaly i want too twist this words and begin with v. 25 and 26. But if u read from the figs tree v. 13. You can and must follow the rules here. In love i said this. Becouse its not a kindergarden lesson.

Fight back when u hear the voices, my friend and some day your day will be peaceful. God bless in Jesus Holy Name. And if u dont know how to pray for a moment, then pray Lord's pray. Love u in Christ

Want to be a christain

What a loving and wonderful saviour us believers have in Christ Jesus. Forgive me Lord.

61 and 62, I have never understood this before, until now, If you say I will be a Christian for a while and return from where I went you are only following out of curiosity. But if you give your heart permanently and do not go back you are a believer. Jesus wants us to be a true believer forever. We must put God first above all things and all people. If we put God first then we include everyone else with us.

Mr. Hurry,

It's put in Order of Table of Contents as in the front of hand held Bible, I know it was difficult for me too, to adjust at first There's also a search bar for words, phrases & even names. If you search for Jesus name in search bar add an additional word like Jesus heals. Is there anything particular you would like help finding? Like Jesus' life Matthew, Mark, Luke & John all are books that cover that. Prophecy about Jesus Psalms 22, Isaiah 53,. Especially after the first books I've noted.

Creation, The flood, (Noah, = Genesis 6, - 9

Moses = Exodus

Hopefully this is helpful.

1st The Bible isn't written in our translations in chronological order. I noticed significant situations like that in Daniel & Ezekiel, while studying recently. It takes really getting into the WORD in deep study to get amazing revelations of dates, related events, truly significant events & people that affected much. 2 Timothy 2:15,

2 Kings 13:1 - 23rd year of Joash._.Jehoahaz begins reign +17 yrs, total for reign) over Israel in Samaria, 2 Kings 13:9 begins Joash son of Jehoahaz, Israel in Samaria) reign, 2 Kings 3:10 *37 th yr of (Joash, King of Judah ) so here the scripture purposeful shows 3 yrs difference in the dates. But search, math reasoning gets us there. I believe you noticed these because you're very observant & the HOLY Spirit may be teaching you.

Joash stil reigning in 37th year,over Judah, Jehoahaz in final three years of reign, as per vrs 1., like King Solomon appointed King as son while King David is still King & alive. 2 Kings 13:10 clarifies reign with the 'eh' in name interesting names in Bible have variations due to translation like Elijah from Old to New Tstmt. However GOD is Awesome with details to clarify who, by those. I've even wondered if there were two sons of Jehoahaz, 2 Kings 13:12 clarifies fought Amaziah King of Judah (son Joash) , 2 Kings 13:13 buried with Kings of Israel (not Judah) 1611 Version has marker at beginning vrs 14. Showing significant difference in paragraph or page, translater notes to start new thought/or similar) it states He died of his sickness, stating he wouldn't survive it. He was visiting Elisha in his last days, weeping. Amazingly GOD has this account for all who doubt the Power of GOD & HIS annointing. 2 Kings 13:20-21, Note vrs 22, jumps back again. 2 Kings 12:20-21, 2 Kings 13:12, 2 Kings 12:19, 2 Kings 14:1-3,

Hopefully these are helpful, the other details around the names help us study & really understand.

Hello, Spencer,

Whether someone is won over in a discussion or not really isn't up to us. It is a work of the Holy Spirit to convince.

For me, I wish to speak forth what I know to be orthodox doctrines because these have been wrestled with by those who sincerely wanted to have a solid scripture based answer to the questions concerning the spiritual matter at hand over the centuries since the beginning of the church age.

And in doing so, I feel that those in the discussion and those participating by simply reading will have heard something that they can study further. There is so much that can be googled now, so I would always urge anyone to look up topics and see what has been spoken by people other than myself. Then they can make a determination if what I have proposed adds up to what Scripture says. If it does not, I welcome people letting me know why they think that, so I can learn more.

I appreciate all of the team work of all you coming together

And helping to get God word out in the world.

Thanks to all

Lord I ask You to hear our prayers as we pray over each request here.

Lord I know You're touching each request each person! Lord I thank You and glorify You tonight. I thank You Jesus for saving me, us!

And for all those who would ask You into their heart tonight.

Thank you Jesus for Your love for giving Yourself for us. I glorify You.

God has heard our prayers! Each and every one.

Kim, He will keep you in perfect peace IF you keep your mind on Him. Sleep with your Bible open next to you on your pillow. Recite a scripture out loud. Repeat it . Praise music, turn it on and sleep with Bible playing on YouTube! Pray over your house! Wipe oil above your doors and windows signifying the blood of Jesus. Ask God to set His holy angels around you. Start thanking God from your heart out loud for any good thing every good gifts from the father. And believe him when he says that he loves you read Psalms 91

Helen,

When Jesus returns in the clouds,

All the graves of BELIEVERS IN JESUS, are going to be opened! :D. They'll instantly be with Jesus.

That's going to really shake up people left behind, because they neglected so great a salvation.

Salvation must occur BEFORE that moment.

Try reading the Commentary on this website. It's accessed below the search box.

Or you can Google commentaries

Type the scripture (comma), Commentaries "

Why can't I search the whole bible, in one search, as in most cases, people do not know the book etc.?

Rick,

Very well said. It is literally translated "Be continually working out your own salvation with fear and trembling."



So this tells me that it's a process and I am involved in the process of continually working it out. And then the very next verse ( Philippians 2:13) tells me who's actually doing the work.

It says "For it is God which works in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure."



The word "works in you" is the word energizing and I see you used that word. For it is God who is continually energizing in you both to will, and to energize of His good pleasure whatever He thinks best!



It's His energy, so it's whenever He wants to energize my spirit for His Spirit to work in me. It's all according to His good pleasure.



So we're to be continually involved in the process of having our salvation worked out because it's God who is working it out. We're just the vessel. But it is God in us doing the work.

Nice talking with you brother!

My mother has been struggling to get a job that pays enough for her to get her own apartment. It feels like so many of her prayers have not been answered no matter how hard she tries. Please pray to the Lord Jesus that He will treat this matter as urgent and allow her to quickly and soon be able to secure a job within her desired salary range. Please also pray that He blesses her financially in any other way He sees fit quickly and soon.

Hi Donna, what you said about loving God, and sending his Son to be crucified for us, and that we are washed in the blood of his salvation is the basic essence of faith.

Throughout the gospels Jesus is praying to God the Father many times, when he teaches his disciples the Lord's prayer, Matthew 6:9 "After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name."

when he teaches his disciples the first and great commandment, Matthew 22:36-39 "Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind."

he also teaches his disciples how they should baptize as in Matthew 28:19 "Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:"

these are but a few examples of how we are taught to pray, the Godhead (Trinity) is explained clearly in 1 John 5:7

you have no reason to be confused, if someone teaches different they are not teaching what is written in the bible. After Jesus baptism when he was in the wilderness and tempted by the devil he didn't argue, but he did quote scripture, this is why it is so important to read our bible (KJV) on a daily basis, we need to put on the whole armor of God, as in Ephesians 6:11-18, a few years ago I started to read my bible on a daily basis, and now have an inner peace that I never had before. God bless

Matthew 7:7-8 "Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:" "For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened."

If Joash died in verse 13 and Elisha died in verse 14, how is Elisha talking to Joash in Verse 14 ? Can someone explain this?

13 And Joash slept with his fathers; and Jeroboam sat upon his throne: and Joash was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel.

14 Now Elisha was fallen sick of his sickness whereof he died. And Joash the king of Israel came down unto him, and wept over his face, and said, O my father, my father, the chariot of Israel, and the horsemen thereof.

15 And Elisha said unto him, Take bow and arrows. And he took unto him bow and arrows.

Hi Donna Two points anything that starts confusion is a mayday, where there is confusion is every evil work also

let everything be done decent neat and in order. I am born again by Holy spirit which works in me, I pray to God in

the name of Jesus Christ because by that name everything was done for us and in us. It Is Written

Thank you! GiGi

For responding to my question

Very helpful,

Be blessed.

Asking for strong protection and breakthrough for all of us (several prayers) and help with the loss of my dad. Asking that the Lord shower us with grace and mercy. Asking this for all others in need as well.

HI Helen That's in the category of respect and heart for a loved one fallen asleep awaiting the return

biblically the honor is carrying out or continuing there legacy or what they taught you. So nothing wrong

with heart and memories of loved ones. I've had fellow believers in my life that have fallen asleep and my

memories are what they taught me and continuing in that. So my bottom line that's an area of the heart.

The greatest comfort is knowing we will see each other again at the gathering together.

yes, Kevin, we do

Hi Natashya When your born again his relationship with you is solid by His will he God through Jesus Christ has

passed tens forgiven us all trespassesor sins, when this thing hits you you will have no problem forgiving someone

else. Also Psalm 103:12 as far as the east is from the west so far has he removed our transgressions sins from us.

Here's the cool part east and west are directions they never meet, there not like the poles, if you go north eventually you'll go south and vise versa but when you go west you will never catch up and go east. Look at

the point that's being made God through Jesus Christ forgave our sin past present and future because he knows as the Psalmist says in verse 14 for he knoweth our frame and we are dust, but to us who believe His mercy and love

and forgiveness endureth forever.

Read whole Psalm its dynamite. Last thought If you look at yourself you'll become

doubtful if you look at the world you'll get depressed if you look at others you can become miserable but when you

look at Christ you will see all Gods possibilities made available to you. We are the Righteousness of God in christ!

What you look at and believe you become! Food for Thought

GOD BLESS
