I want to make a witnessing Bible... about Salvation, etc to have handy if i ever meet anyone who wants to know about Jesus. I can give to them and it would have verses marked to answer their questions
There is a man last name Larsen he researched wrote the documentaries The Star of Bethlehem and Christ Quake. One idea would be to take notes of each Bible Verse cited within them, then model this format in a Bible to gift the person to whom you are ministering.
Have you ever heard of Romans Road? You highlight the first verse, then you put a scripture ref for the next one to go to and so on …@thankfulblessed6576
What a God-sent video. I purely typed in my search engine on 'How to Prayer Using a Bible Verse' and scrolled through and stopped at your video just to see the different tabs and array of colour tapes. Thank you for your step-by-step guide in building a prayer bible and, lastly, how to use a verse to pray. May God continue to bless you with more wisdom. Shalom🕊🙏🏾
I know this is an old video. But you can also use corn starch to get rid of the sticky stuff on ribbon. Or any kind of gluey stuff and then brush it off the access off. So you don't see the corn sdarch. Just put a piece of paper between the pages, brush it on. Brush up and then use something that doesn't have cornstairs on it and brush it off. And you'll never even see the corn starch and that takes care of the stickies. Baby powder also works
I got my daughters together and we all made one. We worked on it for several hours and still want to add more. One tip is to use less washi tape it can be used on the bottom of the page and looks just as good. Thank you for the inspiration! I bought a bean bag “prayer chair” where I do devotionals and pray. My prayer life was getting very repetitive and this prayer Bible has helped so much! God bless you sisterritas! 💕🙏🏻
Thank you for sharing: Softened Heart a. Ezekiel 36:26 b. Jeremiah 24:7 c. Hebrews 4:12 d. Romans 9:18 e. Psalm 51:10 f. Luke 15:7 g. Romans 10:9 h. Proverbs 4:23
I started Theme Bibles by inspiration from God in 2017. I have 7 so far: one per year. I don’t think I’ll be doing anymore unless God instructs me differently because I ended up this 7 years with the theme,Prayer. 7 being The Perfect number, I feel this part of my journey is complete but just working in and through those Bibles now will be the focus in Prayer.
I just bought the same bible and lots of tabs and washi tape last night, lol. I've never seen anything like this before and was so blown away when I saw your first video a couple days ago. I really felt a strong pull to make my own. Thank you for your help and inspiration 🙏
@Mom2joshuar yes! I am so looking forward to starting this. I have really grown in my walk with Christ in the last year, and I feel excited to learn more. I have needed to learn how to pray. It's funny, I feel like I've enrolled in school in a way. I am finishing up with university at 31 years old and feel like I am moving onto graduate school for Jesus !
Also, I will probably use my Bible train method. Put your first tab as directed at the end of the first verse. Write the second verse go to the second verse in right the third verse so on and so on this will save on tabs. You can also write your subjects in the back of your Bible, and start with the first verse that will begin the Bible train.
@@machitect start with a verse. At the end of that verse, write the second verse (book, chapter, verse, )go read the second verse then write the third verse and so on… Bible train or Bible chain
This is a great idea!!! So an example You basically write “Jer 24:7” after the Ezekiel 36:26 verse to make it easier to look for the next verse for that topic. Thank you for sharing!!!
I use a powder bag to get rid of the stickiness on the back of lace or any other Washi tape that is exposed. I purchased it from Scrapbook company. Works great. Not messy.
If you’re struggling to make tabs it sometimes easier to take a tab in the shape that you want trace on top of scrapbook paper and then cut it out and either tape it or glue it where you want it to go❤
I am thinking of using some of my punches and doing some die-cuts for this. It's a great way to use up those ever-present scraps, too. I also have a die set with several tab shapes which I can use but I want to use butterflies and flowers too. I have a lot of decorative gift bags which are made of quite tough paper - some are quite glittery or metallic and I have been wondering what to use those lovely papers for!
I use a little baby powder on the back of anything sticky I don’t want to cover! It also lets me not have to add extra thickness by covering the excess tape. I’m certainly enjoying this series!!
This is good idea because I started my prayer bible already and bought ribbon and glued it in. Now I have a few pages sticking together. Im going to try the baby powder suggestion. Thank you God bless
That's what I do too. I make albums and do other mixed media work, and often pages will stick together, and there are many other situations in the studio where this tip is useful. Baby powder is the best!! Isn't this series fun? So creative, and with such a strong spiritual foundation too. My prayer life has definitely been adrift lately and starting on this project is going to get me back on track again. I have a compact Bible on order now! It will also be a nice small Bible to take to Church on Sunday evenings as my usual one is quite large.
I have ordered a small compact bible to make myself a prayer bible. I have believed myself to be Christian my whole life but have wrestled with lots of questions, etc. I've been reading my bible chronologically recently (1st time actually reading the whole bible), but I feel like I struggle with prayer. I'm so excited to make my own prayer bible to help me find words that speak more of what I'm feeling without lots of fumbling along. ❤ thank you for your videos!
Thank you so much for informing us about the concordance in the back of the bible, as i have gone to them pages before. Thank you, thank you, thank you for expanding my knowledge, cant wait to start my prayer bible, have already ordered the tabs, just gotta order the prayer bible now. Blessings to you❤❤❤
Maybe instead of using the ribbon to line, the whole page just cut a half inch section and add it to your page that will help you to create a lot more tabs. Just an idea. But love the ribbon washy
Thank you just love love videos it truly helps a lot with prayer I also read the prayers from my Sidur it’s a Jewish prayer book am a messianic Jew who believe in Yeshua (Jesus) so again thank you Shalom sister and all the sisteritas 🙏
Hallelujah! Praise Yeshua haMashiach!!! Shalom to you sister! I am a gentile believer with a heart for Israel. I have a beautiful little leather-bound Sidur which was given to me by a lovely old gentleman who was a cantor in the Synagogue and a dear friend. At a pro-Israel conference once, he and I sang numbers from "Fiddler on the Roof" together - his portrayal of Tevye was unforgettable. Such happy memories. He loved and served God but sadly died without recognising Yeshua as his Messiah. I was brought up in the Anglican Church and although I am no longer with them, I love to pray the prayers from the old Book of Common Prayer which are so beautiful. Also to sing all the beautiful Bible-based hymns from that tradition, which I grew up with. I started subscribing as a Sisterita only yesterday!
Maybe if you used all the same theme of tabs..like solid green, potted plant paper, cactus, ferns, etc or matching color in floral, different colored gingham …too many different colors or patterns can seem overwhelming.
I really appreciate the way you are showing us how to actually pray the verse and how to personalize it for our family/friends. I am loving creating my prayer bible with you all❤🙏
Hallo 👋 I request that you please continue this project with us all. It is so enspiring. May God bless you with this project. It's beautiful and a blessing. Beautiful day for everyone 🙏🙏❤️❤️
I was sent here, from following a Bible Journaling page and I cannot explain but this is definitely something I needed to hear, I find it so hard at times to find reading/praying. I'm early in my motherhood years, where my kids take all my energy but I'm so excited to get started on this ❤
Great video. A great tip is to use a piece of waxed paper or reuse a piece of acetate packaging instead of the paper. It allows for easier release. Thank you and bless you.
Thank you! Also, you mentioning that you pray to Jesus and using his name over and over actually made me smile and reminded me of what I learned this morning. 1. When the angel tells Mary she will call her son Emmanuel/Immanuel it is more of a title (like saying, “Mr. President”) and means a variety of things like “King of Kings,” “God with Us,” and “Almighty God.” 2. Yeshua is the Hebrew and Aramaic name Jesus would have actually been called. Yeshua means “YHWH is salvation” or “YHWH saves.” “YHWH” is God, I didn’t add the English vowels because there seems to controversy on how to pronounce it. 3. Abba is Aramaic for “father” and what Yeshua and many others of the time referred to God as during prayer (also their earthly fathers).
I just saw one of your videos yesterday for the first time and you have inspired me and ignited a fire! (I create junk journals currently) I recently was talking to God and realized I wanted to spend more time in His Word so when I saw your vid I was like Oh My Gawsh! I can spend time with God’s Word and be creative while doing it! So I ordered a beautiful Bible , hilighters, and tabs on Amazon for morning delivery and just received them. The Bible is gorgeous and when I opened it , I teared up. I’m excited to be a Sisterita and to continue on a creative, inspiring journey with God in His Word. Thank you for the inspiration!
I have been searching for something like this for YEARS. Ive tried on my own and couldnt nail it down. The amount of excitement and joy i am feeling to do this project is too much to hold in!! 😂 Thank you so much for this series.
I wanted to watch this video to get the practical info about how to make a prayer bible but MAN, I got so much more than that. I've learnt so much from how you apply scripture to your family. Also it was an eye-opener to me how you choose the verses. I've tried to collect topic-based verses before but they were so - how to say - pedantic. I love that you had the freedom to blend in verses about repentance, the grace and the reckless love of God. Thank you for setting me free to think freely about choosing verses. The other day I was listening to Peggy Joyce Ruth (a bible based teacher) who was talking about the importance of testifying and how it can set free people of bondage as it gives hope and perspective for those who are struggling in that area. I believe that your are a testimony of how one can LIVE the word of God and be in love with it. Thank you Jessica! ❤
Thank you so much. I probably would’ve messed up the lace washi tape on the Bible. I love your blue shimmer tabs and it just gave me an idea. If I have extra tabs for a color that I already used I think I’m going to try painting them with a pretty sparkly nail polish or even buy some cheap ones that aren’t so pretty and paint them. 😊
I have been working on my Prayer Bible and have been enjoying the entire process. My Prayer Bible is focusing on Daily Prayers, the theme of Prayer, and Walking With God. This is going to be my first of several. While working on my Bible, I was inspired to get a second Prayer Bible started for my aging Aunt and Uncle. My Uncle is critically ill and being 90 years of age, he knows his life on Earth is coming to a close. I talk to them often by phone and have not seen them since 2018. Both my Uncle and my Aunt ask me to pray each time we talk, or when we email. I am now going to give them a Prayer Bible to use for their prayerful needs, especially during those trips to doctors or the hospital. I will also write several of my own prayers for them and will glue them into their Prayer Bible. I can't thank you enough, Jess, for all of your generosity and guidance -- without your efforts and your video that was placed before my eyes a few days ago, I would not have thought of making a 'special' Bible! ❤
So i love compact bibles and everytime i put tabs on them the tabs rip..never even thought about washi tape ! Thats brilliant! Thank u ! Also thats a good idea to turn ur compact bibles into a prayer bible .
Just tuning in. I started my Prayer Bible last night and I was thinking that I’m going to need so many tabs. I went to Walmart last night and bought a few packs. Using colored pencils is a great for highlighting scripture. I was finding all the different markers and highlighters that I was trying was bleeding through.
I am so delighted that the Lord led me to your channel. I have a compact Bible on order from Amazon and some highlighter pens too - things have moved on a lot in recent years and it's great to know you can get bleed-proof ones now. My prayer life has been adrift for some time and when I saw what you were doing, something clicked for me and I just knew this was the way to go. Also, being a creative person (I make albums and mixed media art as well as many other things) with a studio full of beautiful papers, cutting dies, punches and so on, this will be a way to combine my creativity with my faith in a different way. I have a lift to Church on Sunday evenings as I do not drive. I have a disability and find it difficult to sit on a regular chair for any length of time but cannot take my wheelchair as most of the lift providers haven't got suitable cars to carry it, so I go with my crutches. I have to take a cushion and that pretty much fills my cross-body bag (need to make a bigger one!!) and my regular Bible is so big that there's hardly room in the bag for it as well. A compact Bible is a great idea, and I am sure that as time goes on I shall be able to share with people what its primary purpose is. When people see how pretty it will be with alll the tabs (and I intend adding beads and tassels and other boho embellishmens!) people are bound to ask, and it will be a lovely way to share a new way to focus one's prayer life. In any situation, a beautiful Bible like that would be a great witnessing tool, too. Thank you so much for being such a shining witness to our Lord Jesus by sharing these wonderful videos and encouraging us all! I can't wait to get started with my Prayer Bible now. May the Lord bless you and protect you and your family, and encourage you in your walk with Him.
Part 2 randomly popped up in my feed yesterday and I love this so much. I ordered a compact Bible and tabs yesterday . I am excited to create my prayer Bible and see how it transforms my prayer time.
I have a request Jes! Can you make a video of the first few pages which you have added to your bible? I just bought letter stickers to write prayer in stickers but also I need to add a page describing lists of green lace is peace for example. Thank you. Will be making two prayer bibles as a wedding gift for the bride and groom.
I love this idea what a blessing thank you I also prey for the homeless, for missing children women in general ,human trafficking thank you God bless you.
This is a wonderful, inspiring series. You excitement is contagious in a really positive way. Thank you for taking the time to demonstrate step by step. What a blessing!
JESSICA, HAVE TO TELL YOU. WHEN YOU GO THRU THE THEMES & POINT OUT INDIVIDUAL VERSES~ ESPECIALLY THE THEM ON THE SOFTENED HEART, THERE IS AN IMMEDIATE MINISTRY IN JUST THE READING OF THE VERSES! IM JUST SAYING I FELT IT BUT IM SURE OTHERS ARE BENEFITING TOO! LOVING YOUR CHANNEL!!
Wish they had cute 1995 NASB compact bibles. I'm still planning to make one with a plain colored bible. Love this idea, but I think it's important to consider the translations since there are some that are becoming gender neutral, which is softening God's word and changing the meaning of His word in some instances. The devil is subtle, be alert sisters.
NLT, New Living Translation, is considered a trusted translation. I agree that I would not want to use a newer version that includes unbiblical gender themes! I own several bibles in different translations. My full size NLT is at least 15 years old…actually mine dates back to 1996. I don’t use it for Bible study, but this compact version NLT (which I just ordered!) for a prayer Bible will be fine. I mostly read and study from NASB, NKJV, and NIV, depending on who I am following along with so as we read, it’s the same 😊
I seen some real cute ones at Barnes and nobles recently. They are nasb 1995 ..I seen like a olive green,blue,red and black. U can have them ship it to the store too
This is awesome. My sister and I are creating ours now. I wondered if you will be doing a video on how to pray through it. I know you have some examples but maybe a more in depth how to for prayer beginners.
I stumbled across one of your videos on making a prayer bible and was very hooked. I am working on mine now and can't think of a better way to spend time in God's word while seeking Him and praying for my family and friends, all at once.
The Link to scripture verses…nothing showed up. I’m looking for your list of verses such as Affirmations, Forgiveness, etc. Love this information…it’s very helpful. Thank you.
I'm a 1st timer to your channel. I'm a sister in Christ and WOW I love this idea!!!! I've been struggling to figure out how to have a central prayer book to pray for family, friends and general requests. I use postcards; however, they're all in a zip folder and they are cumbersome to organize. I love this idea and will definitely create a prayer bible asap. I'm ordering a compact bible and tabs today. I'll incorporate my postcards somehow into this prayer bible if I can. 😃
I just can’t wait to start mines, been praying 🙏🏼 of a way to pray using Gods word. I pray that the Lord keep using you in a mighty way. Tnks again sweet sister
I do need to come back to your videos, am going to shop for my tabs,tape a new compact Bible and get started. Thank you soo much ❤ this is a great idea for those as I who need help in prayer 🙏.
I haven't started my prayer bible yet, gathering ideas and themes and verses together & plotting out how to put it together ... but like you, I will be using my larger print bible (the Great Adventure Bible from Ascension Press) as my prayer bible. I have a compact one which I use while traveling but want to keep that for when I don't want distractions and just read God's word.
So inspired by this! I believe it was providence that led me to your video yesterday! Been watching all of them and just bought my compact Bible today and hope to create my own prayer Bible to pray with the scriptures ❤ I’ve been prayer journaling and believe this will be a special addition to my time with the Lord. Thank you for sharing, this is so helpful!!!
So I by chance I came across your video....got to 13min and paused it. Ran to collect all my washi. Didn’t have your pretty lace washi but found 🧡 washi and proceeded to follow you with your scriptures. Which were spot on for those that need a softened heart. Just love how God works..He hooked me up to follow you!❤ I am going to pass this along to my DIL. I’ve subscribed and will be going back see what #1 is about. 💕🙏💕
Hello, I use mild/ milk liners they don't bleed. Started yesterday thank you for your time to teach us. May God continue to bless you. Love from Europe.
Delighted to find your channel. You do not have to back the washy tape with more tape. When you turn the page cover the excess glue with baby powder. It takes away the glue.
Thank you for this. Just found your videos the last few days. Still compiling all the washi tape and tabs. Have the bible... I'm almost set. I have typed out many prayers using scripture for years, but this seems so much better. Depending upon how this all turns out, I think I know of a few gifts for some people this year. What a blessing!!!
I agree we pray in Jesus Name.. but to be scripturally correct: John 16:23 …( JESUS said) Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall Ask the FATHER in my name, he will give it you. We r to come to God the Father in Jesus Name…been a believer for years and only recently this scripture popped out to me that God has designed the approach to be this way. Thank God we r never too old to learn
Thank you so much for doing this for us Sisterita. These videos are so helpful. I love it when you show us how to use the verse in a prayer. I have been working on my prayer bible along side these videos. I just ordered some more tabs. TFS! God bless you and your family.
Thank you for all the work you've done and shared so that my prayer bible will go so much quicker. I'm excited to put mine together. I'm waiting for my bible to deliver. As I'm buying tabs and highlighters I'm thinking, wow, this is kind of expensive...but can't imagine anything that is worth more than praying through scripture.
Hello, I just wanted to say, thank you... I stumble on your video part 1 and can't stop watching.... I already ordered my compact Bible and will print your themes and get my tabs and markers ready... As soon as my Bible arrives I will start with my prayer Bible.. Can't wait... Greetings all the way from South Africa... ❤
As I read from the others here, this came up in my feed “mysteriously.” I am so happy it did. One thing that doesn’t seem to work for my tablet is the link to the Themes and Scriptures. Can someone help? That would be much appreciated. 😊
I want to make a witnessing Bible... about Salvation, etc to have handy if i ever meet anyone who wants to know about Jesus. I can give to them and it would have verses marked to answer their questions
I love this idea...it would make it so much easier to share our faith 💜
@@thankfulblessed6576 I'll do a video whenever I get around to pulling it together

The Bible is gorgeous and when I opened it , I teared up. I’m excited to be a Sisterita and to continue on a creative, inspiring journey with God in His Word. Thank you for the inspiration!
This is so wonderful!!!! Blessings to you Sisterita
@@thesisteritaclub7744 thank you. I just shared it with 2 of my friends as well. 🥰
I have been searching for something like this for YEARS. Ive tried on my own and couldnt nail it down. The amount of excitement and joy i am feeling to do this project is too much to hold in!! 😂 Thank you so much for this series.
I’ve been needing to up my prayer life……thank you so much for showing me how to do this! Praying names into the scriptures - WOW!
I wanted to watch this video to get the practical info about how to make a prayer bible but MAN, I got so much more than that. I've learnt so much from how you apply scripture to your family. Also it was an eye-opener to me how you choose the verses. I've tried to collect topic-based verses before but they were so - how to say - pedantic. I love that you had the freedom to blend in verses about repentance, the grace and the reckless love of God. Thank you for setting me free to think freely about choosing verses. The other day I was listening to Peggy Joyce Ruth (a bible based teacher) who was talking about the importance of testifying and how it can set free people of bondage as it gives hope and perspective for those who are struggling in that area. I believe that your are a testimony of how one can LIVE the word of God and be in love with it. Thank you Jessica! ❤
Wow! Thank you so much Sisterita ❤️ your comment meant to much to me!
@@thesisteritaclub7744I'm so happy because I really mean it and I wanted you to know how inspiring you are.
I LOVE the idea of mixing the use of the tabs and the the washi tape to identify the themes and the very first Bible with the stickers is precious!♥
The pink Bible is sold out most places. 😂. I love this. So many people are ready to pray and use their beautiful prayer bibles. Thank you!!🙏🏻🙏🏻
My Mom and I are going to be making our own prayer Bible. We found tabs at Walmart. Thank you for doing this!!
I love this , I have a tabbed bible and now I can do this and increase my walk with Jesus and my daily prayer time! God Bless You
What a fabulous method! I'm doing this on my huge family table top bible. Such a blessing thank you.
Thank you so much. I probably would’ve messed up the lace washi tape on the Bible. I love your blue shimmer tabs and it just gave me an idea. If I have extra tabs for a color that I already used I think I’m going to try painting them with a pretty sparkly nail polish or even buy some cheap ones that aren’t so pretty and paint them. 😊
This is like a scrap-booking-prayer-Bible project.
You explain things very well! 👑
This is so pretty what a great idea. 🌼

Thank you so much for sharing. I am looking forward to making my own prayer Bible. I LOVE the lace Washi tape idea.
I have been working on my Prayer Bible and have been enjoying the entire process. My Prayer Bible is focusing on Daily Prayers, the theme of Prayer, and Walking With God. This is going to be my first of several.
While working on my Bible, I was inspired to get a second Prayer Bible started for my aging Aunt and Uncle. My Uncle is critically ill and being 90 years of age, he knows his life on Earth is coming to a close. I talk to them often by phone and have not seen them since 2018. Both my Uncle and my Aunt ask me to pray each time we talk, or when we email. I am now going to give them a Prayer Bible to use for their prayerful needs, especially during those trips to doctors or the hospital. I will also write several of my own prayers for them and will glue them into their Prayer Bible.
I can't thank you enough, Jess, for all of your generosity and guidance -- without your efforts and your video that was placed before my eyes a few days ago, I would not have thought of making a 'special' Bible! ❤
So i love compact bibles and everytime i put tabs on them the tabs rip..never even thought about washi tape ! Thats brilliant! Thank u !
Also thats a good idea to turn ur compact bibles into a prayer bible .
Just tuning in. I started my Prayer Bible last night and I was thinking that I’m going to need so many tabs. I went to Walmart last night and bought a few packs. Using colored pencils is a great for highlighting scripture. I was finding all the different markers and highlighters that I was trying was bleeding through.
Brilliant! I’ve used colored Pencils for years. They’ve ever failed me yet!
I am so delighted that the Lord led me to your channel. I have a compact Bible on order from Amazon and some highlighter pens too - things have moved on a lot in recent years and it's great to know you can get bleed-proof ones now. My prayer life has been adrift for some time and when I saw what you were doing, something clicked for me and I just knew this was the way to go. Also, being a creative person (I make albums and mixed media art as well as many other things) with a studio full of beautiful papers, cutting dies, punches and so on, this will be a way to combine my creativity with my faith in a different way.
I have a lift to Church on Sunday evenings as I do not drive. I have a disability and find it difficult to sit on a regular chair for any length of time but cannot take my wheelchair as most of the lift providers haven't got suitable cars to carry it, so I go with my crutches. I have to take a cushion and that pretty much fills my cross-body bag (need to make a bigger one!!) and my regular Bible is so big that there's hardly room in the bag for it as well. A compact Bible is a great idea, and I am sure that as time goes on I shall be able to share with people what its primary purpose is. When people see how pretty it will be with alll the tabs (and I intend adding beads and tassels and other boho embellishmens!) people are bound to ask, and it will be a lovely way to share a new way to focus one's prayer life. In any situation, a beautiful Bible like that would be a great witnessing tool, too.
Thank you so much for being such a shining witness to our Lord Jesus by sharing these wonderful videos and encouraging us all! I can't wait to get started with my Prayer Bible now. May the Lord bless you and protect you and your family, and encourage you in your walk with Him.
I’m so excited to start my prayer bible! Thank you so much for the step by step instructions.
You are so welcome!
Omg I really have been struggling and this has motivated me to pray and read the Bible thank you so much ❤
I'm loving this!!! Thank you for helping me on my prayer Bible🙏❤️
Part 2 randomly popped up in my feed yesterday and I love this so much. I ordered a compact Bible and tabs yesterday . I am excited to create my prayer Bible and see how it transforms my prayer time.
I love this Prayer Bible idea! I am waiting for all of my supplies to arrive.
I love this thank you so much 💕
I have a request Jes! Can you make a video of the first few pages which you have added to your bible? I just bought letter stickers to write prayer in stickers but also I need to add a page describing lists of green lace is peace for example. Thank you.
Will be making two prayer bibles as a wedding gift for the bride and groom.
Thank you I truly needed this to help me in my prayer life! God bless you!!!❤
I love this idea what a blessing thank you I also prey for the homeless, for missing children women in general ,human trafficking thank you God bless you.
Yes!!!!! Good!
I just found you yesterday,,,soooo excited,,,The Word of God,,our sword ,,,This is what I been looking for,,,thank you so much!
This is a wonderful, inspiring series. You excitement is contagious in a really positive way. Thank you for taking the time to demonstrate step by step. What a blessing!
Thank you for continuing this process! God bless you and your ministry!! My Prayer Bible is starting to bloom 😊! I love praying through it as well !
Going to get my Bible and start this prayer bible so good 😊 thanks for sharing
JESSICA, HAVE TO TELL YOU. WHEN YOU GO THRU THE THEMES & POINT OUT INDIVIDUAL VERSES~ ESPECIALLY THE THEM ON THE SOFTENED HEART, THERE IS AN IMMEDIATE MINISTRY IN JUST THE READING OF THE VERSES! IM JUST SAYING I FELT IT BUT IM SURE OTHERS ARE BENEFITING TOO!
LOVING YOUR CHANNEL!!
Wish they had cute 1995 NASB compact bibles. I'm still planning to make one with a plain colored bible. Love this idea, but I think it's important to consider the translations since there are some that are becoming gender neutral, which is softening God's word and changing the meaning of His word in some instances. The devil is subtle, be alert sisters.
NLT, New Living Translation, is considered a trusted translation. I agree that I would not want to use a newer version that includes unbiblical gender themes! I own several bibles in different translations. My full size NLT is at least 15 years old…actually mine dates back to 1996. I don’t use it for Bible study, but this compact version NLT (which I just ordered!) for a prayer Bible will be fine. I mostly read and study from NASB, NKJV, and NIV, depending on who I am following along with so as we read, it’s the same 😊
I seen some real cute ones at Barnes and nobles recently. They are nasb 1995 ..I seen like a olive green,blue,red and black. U can have them ship it to the store too
This is awesome. My sister and I are creating ours now. I wondered if you will be doing a video on how to pray through it. I know you have some examples but maybe a more in depth how to for prayer beginners.
Yes I sure will!
I stumbled across one of your videos on making a prayer bible and was very hooked. I am working on mine now and can't think of a better way to spend time in God's word while seeking Him and praying for my family and friends, all at once.
The Link to scripture verses…nothing showed up. I’m looking for your list of verses such as Affirmations, Forgiveness, etc. Love this information…it’s very helpful. Thank you.
Your channel has grown! It is so needed in this time. Thank you for helping me pray the Bible!!
Really LOVE this!!!
Could you maybe make your handwritten list of themes available, please?
Love this-both to condense my prayer cards into a better way to carry AND to use my love for arts & crafts in a new way.
I'm a 1st timer to your channel. I'm a sister in Christ and WOW I love this idea!!!! I've been struggling to figure out how to have a central prayer book to pray for family, friends and general requests. I use postcards; however, they're all in a zip folder and they are cumbersome to organize. I love this idea and will definitely create a prayer bible asap. I'm ordering a compact bible and tabs today. I'll incorporate my postcards somehow into this prayer bible if I can. 😃
Found this video and just love it. Never even thought about a prayer bible but now I will be making one.
I just found your channel and I am loving this series. I'm gathering my supplies to put together a Bible of my own! Thank you so much.
I just can’t wait to start mines, been praying 🙏🏼 of a way to pray using Gods word. I pray that the Lord keep using you in a mighty way. Tnks again sweet sister
Thank you for including how to use it in prayer ❤
I bought a 6 pack of different gold washi tapes. I can't wait to use them on this.
I do need to come back to your videos, am going to shop for my tabs,tape a new compact Bible and get started. Thank you soo much ❤ this is a great idea for those as I who need help in prayer 🙏.
Thanks for showing the specific pens honey. I appreciate it. Im praying for your journaling ministry.
What is your process for finding Bible
Verses for each theme? I would love to see a video about that! ❤ 😊
Yes would love to see how you find the verses! Thanks for sharing!
You can google…bible verses about ….whatever you choose.
Having fun setting mine up! Although I had to go with a Bible that was little larger due to my bad eye site!
I haven't started my prayer bible yet, gathering ideas and themes and verses together & plotting out how to put it together ... but like you, I will be using my larger print bible (the Great Adventure Bible from Ascension Press) as my prayer bible. I have a compact one which I use while traveling but want to keep that for when I don't want distractions and just read God's word.
This is so inspiring and fun. Can’t wait to start mine. God bless you Jessica and your family ❤✝️🙏
Been wanting to do a crafting project with my teen daughter, but wasn’t sure what to do. Now I know: prayer bibles, YAY !! 💖🙏✝️
Yay! Love it
So inspired by this! I believe it was providence that led me to your video yesterday! Been watching all of them and just bought my compact Bible today and hope to create my own prayer Bible to pray with the scriptures ❤ I’ve been prayer journaling and believe this will be a special addition to my time with the Lord. Thank you for sharing, this is so helpful!!!
So I by chance I came across your video....got to 13min and paused it. Ran to collect all my washi. Didn’t have your pretty lace washi but found 🧡 washi and proceeded to follow you with your scriptures. Which were spot on for those that need a softened heart. Just love how God works..He hooked me up to follow you!❤ I am going to pass this along to my DIL. I’ve subscribed and will be going back see what #1 is about. 💕🙏💕
Oh I love this! I am so glad!
Thanks for this idea!!! ❤❤ Just a tip in case it might help with highlighting that doesn’t bleed > midliners by Zebra. Tons of colors!
I just ordered another Bible and the tabs and washi tape, and I have my themes. Thank you so much for this series! You are a blessing. ❤
God bless you
Hello, I use mild/ milk liners they don't bleed. Started yesterday thank you for your time to teach us. May God continue to bless you. Love from Europe.
Hey! Way to go on getting so many new subscribers! Sisteritas in Christ! ✝️🎉
I love this idea! Thank you for sharing!🌸🙏💗🙏🌸
Nice. Love it. Provision had mine.
I already hot my compact Spanish Bible, tabs and pink, purple and teal texture washy tape🎉❤😊
This is wonderful! I noticed that the Bible verses themes/Scripture verses tab is not functional, do you have an updated link? Bless you!
Wow! This video couldn't come at better time love it I want to start one 🤷❤🙏
Thank you for breaking down 🙏🏻🙌🏼💗🎀
Delighted to find your channel. You do not have to back the washy tape with more tape. When you turn the page cover the excess glue with baby powder. It takes away the glue.
This is going to be amazing for me i just got my compact bible today and bless you for doing this i was struggling with prayer.
Thank you for this. Just found your videos the last few days. Still compiling all the washi tape and tabs. Have the bible... I'm almost set. I have typed out many prayers using scripture for years, but this seems so much better. Depending upon how this all turns out, I think I know of a few gifts for some people this year. What a blessing!!!
Hi there!
I keep an index on which tab color is for which Bible verses. - Just an idea! 👍😉
That's a great idea
I agree we pray in Jesus Name..
but to be scripturally correct: John 16:23 …( JESUS said) Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall Ask the FATHER in my name, he will give it you.
We r to come to God the Father in Jesus Name…been a believer for years and only recently this scripture popped out to me that God has designed the approach to be this way. Thank God we r never too old to learn
Thank you so much for doing this for us Sisterita. These videos are so helpful. I love it when you show us how to use the verse in a prayer. I have been working on my prayer bible along side these videos. I just ordered some more tabs. TFS! God bless you and your family.
Thank you for all the work you've done and shared so that my prayer bible will go so much quicker. I'm excited to put mine together. I'm waiting for my bible to deliver. As I'm buying tabs and highlighters I'm thinking, wow, this is kind of expensive...but can't imagine anything that is worth more than praying through scripture.
Use what you have! You can use stickers or even card stock paper and use that to make tabs!!!
Hello, I just wanted to say, thank you... I stumble on your video part 1 and can't stop watching.... I already ordered my compact Bible and will print your themes and get my tabs and markers ready... As soon as my Bible arrives I will start with my prayer Bible.. Can't wait... Greetings all the way from South Africa... ❤
I was just thinking about how you made those tabs. I'm glad I watched this. I'm working on my prayer bible.
You could use Double Sided tape to stick tabs made out of different things. I'm thinking lace, scrapbook paper, fabric, etc.
As I read from the others here, this came up in my feed “mysteriously.” I am so happy it did. One thing that doesn’t seem to work for my tablet is the link to the Themes and Scriptures. Can someone help? That would be much appreciated. 😊
I love this I teach pre-teen girls and want to do this with them. Do you have a list of your scriptures.
I love your ideas! Thanks for sharing! God Bless!
