Bible Painting - Have you tried it? - Growing Through God's Word
Bible painting or journalling – what is it?
I posted this a year ago. I have continued to work on my Bible painting/journalling. Check out my Bible Journalling Page for more scriptures and pictures. I now have a link in my menu for Bible Journalling. Check it out. Join us on Facebook Word of God Speak.
I use watercolour pencils and felt pens and Micron pens.
Here is the post:
Bible painting is something new to me.
I would like to show you this week some of the watercolour paintings I have done in my Bible. I find, being a visual person, Bible painting helps solidify the scriptures in my mind.
It’s time for a review. I have studied, painted and memorized a number of scriptures since we started Word of God Speak. Each week I would use the SIMPLE method of Bible study to hear what God was telling me.
Here is a quick review with the scripture, my Bible journalling page, and my thoughts for each scripture. I am only doing a few of them this week. Next time I will show you new ones. Review is important. It’s time to go back and see what I have learned.
If you haven’t been following you can click on the link to see my thoughts of each scripture.
2 Corinthians 9:8 Have you found one word for 2016?
And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.
What I learned from 2 Corinthians 9:8:
In order for God to be known I must break free of my wall of insecurity – the introvert me. I must allow Him to let me burst forth – ABOUND- to show His Light to the world.
John 1:14 What does it mean God came down?
The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.
What I learned from John 1:14:
I know God is leading me somewhere. Therefore, I will continue to watch where He leads. We are called to look after those who cannot look after themselves.
John 3:5 How to accept God’s Grace
Jesus answered, “Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit.
What I learned from John 3:5:
I thought, “What does it take for the Spirit to move in the hearts of men? in my family? in my friends? I remember before I took that leap of faith, being prideful, and stubborn. So it takes the power of the Holy Spirit to break through our tough skin.
