Thank u
I thank you God. I was just wondering how to do this. God you're so faithful hallelujah Jesus!
Woohoo!!! I'm glad God used this video to help!! Thanks for your continued love and support Catherine
No thank you for your obedience to God.😊
This was a nice video. I like your tips. Thank you.
@@AnnaWillemstein this is the best explanation of meditating on God's Word I 've come across on UA-cam, I thought I wasn't doing it the right way. Thanks a lot !
Yes!!! Amen! Thank you so very much! I have been trying to understand for a while now what it really means to meditate on God’s word and your video was the first one to pop up! Look at God! 🙌🏽
Romans 8:37 "Yet in all these things, we are more than conquerers through Him who loved us."
Though I don't know you personally, I am really happy you are my sister in Christ! You are doing really well with your ministry in it's consistency and your passion.
Thank you very much for those kind and encouraging words Claytine :) God bless you!
I love this you be encouraged to continue I wish I had meditated when I was much younger but I thank God that with his help my memory will be back on track. Hallelujah thank you Jesus. Amen
Grace be unto you.
anyone reading this, i hope your day is blessed, i’ve been meditating on 1 John 2:6 . i was wondering if someone could pray this scripture over me, God bless everyone 💗💗🙏🏾
Praise be to the God
Thank you, Anna! What's your absolute favorite verse? I like Phillipians 3:14, "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."
Hey Avery, you are so welcome! My absolutely favorite verse?? That's so hard lol! But probably Luke 1:45 - "Blessed is she who has believed that what the Lord has said to her will be accomplished." This verse was spoken about Mary when she chose to believe that what God told her would happen in her life would actually take place. I want to do that! I want to believe God and live my life like that!
That's an awesome verse you chose, too! I need strength from the Lord this week to accomplish several important tasks in preparation for Continue, so I receive that reminder of that verse from you for encouragement and strength! Thanks girl
Ahh I love the NLT voice on you version too! Haha it’s so good
lol it is pretty peaceful :) thanks for watching and commenting!
✨ I will follow this Concept as well as others 🌟
I thank God because it turned out that most of these methods l have actually been using them to meditate and it is the holy spirit himself who taught me...
I enjoyed this thank you, continue to let you light shine
So practical and helpful!!
Thank you for this. God bless you
I excited about the continue devo!!! This is the verse God showed me this week that stood out. Joshua 1:9 NASB
Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous! Do not tremble or be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go."
Not only does God give us a secure and everlasting identity in Him. He also calls us to be strong and courageous. We may not feel courage in the face of opposition, conflict, redicule or death but never forget friends that God is with us always and nothing can separate us from Him.
awesome verse!! I actually needed to hear that this morning. I need the courage from God to do what He wants me to do right now. Thank you for sharing that verse! And thank you for sharing with me your excitement for Continue
Great tips! This was very practical/helpful. Thank you!
God bless you madam, greating you from Nigeria 🙏
Hi Anna! I have recently switched up my devo game and started writing out the chunk of scripture I’m working through. It’s been so good for intake and really makes me feel connected wit the Holy Spirit. It does take a little longer, so I’ve struggled doing it daily, but thank God for grace! 💛 after I write it out I’ve just done an analysis & application before praying. Nice and simple. Thank you for the inspiration!
First, I love your name! Anne of Green Gables is one of my favorite books and Gilbert Blythe was the man of my dreams as a child lol. Thanks for sharing how you're doing devo time! My friend Tiffany from One Fab Teacher on UA-cam is doing something similar with scripture writing for devotional purposes. Thanks for watching and commenting:)
Haha thank you! I like it too. It’s unique but not crazy out there! I’ll have to check her out! 😘
Thank you Anna! I’ve always wondered if I was meditating on scripture the “right” way. I love that you give such practical applications on living the Christian life. I am also looking forward to your devo!!!! It sounds amazing! And the reading plan too! I need direction in my Bible reading so it will be so helpful. I find lately I’m doing more devos than real reading and studying of the Word.
You are so welcome Tracy
Typing it out is nice as well. Scripture typer app has been so helpful.
I personally like writing but then I like paper planners instead of google calendar, etc :) must be a personality thing!
Great content as always. I decided to post my scripture on my closet door! I'm focusing on Col 3:23 right now.
Thank you Cami
As I am making plans to homeschool my kids I am meditating on this scripture:
14 When I think of all this, I fall to my knees and pray to the Father,[e] 15 the Creator of everything in heaven and on earth.[f] 16 I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will empower you with inner strength through his Spirit. 17 Then Christ will make his home in your hearts as you trust in him. Your roots will grow down into God’s love and keep you strong. 18 And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is. 19 May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God.
Ephesians 3: 14-19 NLT
Nicole, what an AWESOME verse to focus you for homeschooling!!! I loved reading through those verses with homeschooling in mind. It gave me such a fresh take on that passage. Thank you for sharing. God bless you and strengthen you as you prepare to educate your kids! I pray they grow smart, strong, healthy, wise, and kind under your loving instruction
Thank you thank you 🙏
Blessings 🙏
Thank you Anna. Through the YouVersion App stories I learnt about meditation and how to do that daily especially in the morning. I honestly didn’t have the idea on how I could do that so thank you for your clear explanation. Thank you a lot. Much love for your work
God bless you
Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much!
Thank you 🔥
Father God i thank you for giving me this video.This is so helpful.
thanks God bless you
Thank you.
Hi Anna
I really love that you have put together and explained the several ways to meditate. They are all very effective as I have used them all. Wanted to ask what is the best way to choose scripture to meditate and study daily. Early in my journey I would just open my bible and where it opened is where I studied. I know this really isn’t the best way what do you suggest?
Yes sister amen.
The NLT is my favorite version too.
Really helpful to me
thank you
Thank you for sharing God's knowledge, praise God. I too was wondering how to do this? God Bless sister.
These tips are so helpful thanks for sharing

I think we all should be doing this as Christians ✝️ 💚 God bless this video
Thanks
Great, great ideas! I've done some but I don't think I've been as intentional as I'd like. Will use your ideas. Thank you!
Oh my goodness, I'm soo excited for the Continue series and for the magazine!! That sounds super awesome and I am excited that Laurel and Jeorgi were listed on there!! Things that I have used from your list are listening to Scripture that helps when I am struggling to sit down and actually read and I look it up in other versions. Hi Anna!! 🖐🏻 You always make me smile when you mention me in your videos!! I love the comment section on your videos! We have such a great little community here on your channel!! Love you!!
Hayley P hi hayley. I love her channel too she is so nice. I learn so much from her.
Hey Catherine I am so happy to have gotten to know Anna even if it's only through UA-cam and Instagram. I am also glad that I could talk with others in the comments as well. She is so helpful and I love that she genuinely cares about the people who watch her and always does her best to reply to comments. I love her passion for the Lord and how she shares that so openly!
Hayley P she is just a great servant of the Lord and i have learned so much from her she is my favorite on youtube hope to meet.her in person one day
She definitely is! Hanging out with Anna is such a dream of mine!!
Hayley, you are the absolute QUEEN of details lol!! I actually ended up needing to postpone the Laurel and Jeorgi interviews until either the July or August issue, but those are coming! I love you so much girl! Your enthusiasm and love and support give me fuel to keep going! Thank you
Thank you very much for the video. God Bless You.
First watch...I’m looking forward to how your channel will help me mediate on Gods word.

That would be absolutely amazing Paige!! Please let me know if you end up doing this! I want to watch!!!!!
I just subscribed:)
Very helpful. Thank you for sharing
❤️👍 love this Anna! So important!
Thanks so much!:)
I would love to hear more about why you don't think meditating isn't a good idea? I sometimes do it to quiet my heart and mind before praying and then doing a Bible study if I've had a busy day but I'm curious your thoughts about it!
Sure thing! I have it on my list of upcoming videos!!
Thessalonians 4:6 "that no one transgress and wrong his brother in this matter, BECAUSE THE LORD IS AN AVENGER ON THIS THINGS,as we told you beforehand and solemnly warn u" I just recieved this after being angry at people for no reason, it's a good reminder that I don't have the right to get angry at my brothers for God will avenge them 🤣❤️❤️
...edit: an Yes I'm aware that i might have taken this out of context but yeah at least it gave me a reminder
I have the YouVersion Bible app and had no idea it had audio!
hahah I know! i was so excited when I found that feature on the app!! thanks for watching and commenting:D
Soooo helpful. Thank you so much!
So blessed by your videos, Anna! 😄❤
thank you very much for letting me know Cassandra
Wow
Bless you ! very encouraging video 👍
I'm so excited for Continue!!!!
Yay! Thanks Morgan
2 years ago 😮 I guess I missed out on that bible study. 😔
thank you so much
This was very helpful!
Ok , so with mediating do I need to say a scripture over and over in my head so it can get in my heart! I’ve been doing this and it’s really hard.
💖💙💜❤️💗 will you be posting a thing that has all the stuff for the Bible reading plan like you normally do I hope so because that way I can write down what we are reading for the week because I’m gonna be a camp counselor at bible camp and I can’t have my phone and go on Twitter and see what we are reading that day
Cheridan that is SO FUN that you are going to be a Bible camp counselor! Youth camp was my absolute favorite time of the year when I was a youth pastor!! I miss it a ton. Have some fun for me, will you?:) And to answer your question, yes. definitely. Do you need me to email it to you today? The video isn't going up till June 2nd and I will post the entire summer reading schedule in that video but if you leave before June 2nd, just email me at annawillemstein@gmail.com and I will send you the plan early!
This really helped
While your meditating on scripture do you focus on breath? Many thanks 🙏
What scripture do you recommend for someone who is desperately in need of a job?
Can you pray Ephesians 4 over me and the beginning of 5 where it says be imitators of God. Thank you Anna.
Yes Catherine, I will! You are welcome
Ty Anna 💟God bless.
I prayed as we’ll
can anyone tell what all scripturas to mediate
I am meditation Mark 9:23
Genesis 1:28
I feel i lost the holy spirit and god is not with me anymore what do i do....😞
💘
Hi just came across your videos and found it really helpful! Can you put a link to the Youversion app you mentioned here. I see so many similar ones in the play store. Thanks. God bless!
Hey there! I tried to figure out how to link from the play store in this comment and it didn't work out for me, but I did put the ICON for the correct app in the video (it's called YouVersion and the icon is a brown square with golden letters). I hope this helps and I wish I could do more!
I was really not knowing how to meditate on word of God😇
Can you help me
How do I know what the scripture is over my life?
I think a verse that actually caught your attention or what you think is meant for you
Is it available for Android?
I hope so!
I will be posting it on a Patreon page as a PDF (which will work on either Android of Apple phones!) I hope this helps:) I'll give a lot more info on how to find it next week:D Thanks for the question Edie
Hey Amanda, I'm not sure if youtube notified you of my response to Edie, so I thought I'd copy paste it as a direct reply to your reply lol:
