Lord, You have told us through Your word to cling to You. Thank You that this is Your desire. We praise You that a holy and mighty God would invite us to walk so closely with You. And thank You, Lord, that we can know You through Your word, be strengthened through Your word, gain wisdom and guidance through Your word, and be corrected and re-directed by Your word. I pray that You would meet each of us who are doing this study in a strong and personal way. Help us, Lord, to draw closer to You. We need You, Lord. We need the help of Your presence. I pray that You would use the book of James to open our eyes, awaken our souls, move us to repentance, deepen our faith, and cause us to run the race with endurance for Christ. And I pray that You would use this book to draw us near, to cling to You. Help us to love You with all our heart, mind, soul, and strength, in Jesus’ name. Amen.
I told my husband Kim my sister in Christ is going to have a bible study on James, therefore I started reading James the intro and James chapter 1; may I tell you Kim there is nothing better than to have someone as yourself to break it down with knowledge and hard studying, has helped me to understand it better, not that the biblical message was not understood, but when you do it with someone as you. I see you as my biblical teacher. If you have read partial testimony when you gave yours, I was brought up in a dysfunctional Christian home and came to understand the Bible much better in my late 50s all I knew was Christ was crucified, but not the reason behind it. Stay blessed and looking forward for the next lesson 🙏🙌❤⚘
Irma, I'm so grateful to God that the teaching is helpful to you. God is so faithful. And praise God for your hunger for His word. This truly encouraged me. So glad to be studying this book with you. Blessings to you!
You know, I struggle a lot because sometimes when I read the scriptures and see what God is calling us to do like, persevere/endure I gloss over the scripture that says ASK GOD and I ASSUME that I should just get it! And I don’t. I find myself throwing in the towel more often than not conceding that I’m just not strong enough. But the truth is, everything that I face good or indifferent requires the strength of the Lord! I’m grateful for this teaching. It really made me say “ummm” a lot I took lots of notes and will be going back again. Thank you for allowing the Lord to spark or love for His Word and a love for teaching His Word because it’s just for me!!
I love this so much, Tikisha, because that's exactly what we tend to do -- focus on what God is calling us to do (persevere/endure) and glossing over ASK GOD so that we can get the help we need. I always say I'm desperate for God....I need His help for EVERYTHING! :) I'm so thankful He gives willingly and generously. Thank you for sharing this. Love studying this book with you already!
Wow, just wow! You know how you know something because you experienced it but then someone comes along and just puts it all together? This is what I felt like watching this. I have been through many trials and have experienced God like I never would had these things not happened to me. They were so painful at the time. I was even bitter at the Lord. Tearfully asking him: “ lord why am I here? I don’t want to be here. No!” But now I can sit here and say... God IS faithful. God WILL provide. God DOES answer MY prayers. Grateful for this reminder and encouragement to keep going in my walk and to encourage others who are struggling. I’m grateful for the encouragement to ask for wisdom especially when I don’t know what to do about something or I have to make a decision And I’m not sure what to do. Thanks Kim!
Renee, I love hearing this praise about God showing His faithfulness through trials. He truly does. Through the pain and the tears, He shows us Himself and draws us even closer. Thank you for sharing this. I'm so grateful to God that the lesson spoke to you. xo
Sis. Renee, I, too, have experienced bitterness of the soul with God during my most recent wilderness experience. He had to reveal it to me, because my pride kept me from seeing it. Thank you for your transparency because it truly blessed me.
" . . . Count it all joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance . . ." Excellent Study! Deep dives! Thanks, Kim!
Going deep even in the first 12 verses! :) I was nodding, saying "Amen" all the way through. I remember studying this book WAYYYYY back when in grade school, thinking my "trials" were no big deal...."I got this, and yes, I'm enduring for God....yay, me." HAHA - now, looking back on what I've walked through, what I AM walking through, and what I know is still to come I can say, fully, God IS good! The Christian walk is truly no joke, and there WILL be trials, but I can definitely say that my faith and walk with God is 1,000 times stronger now BECAUSE of what He has put in my life to walk through. I love this, at 12:32 ---> "Through trial, we come to know God as our rock, our refuge, and our strength." AMEN!! And I loved the section about asking - how awesome is it that the King of the Universe wants us to come to Him and ASK? That just gets me all the time.....however, we need to be prepared for just HOW He will respond when we are bold to ask. His ways are truly higher than ours, because His answers are not always what we expect - I prayed for my little girl to be healed 4 years ago, and God took her Home. It took me almost a year after her death to have that light bulb moment when I realized - "Wow, He DID answer my prayer. He DID heal my daughter in the most amazing, powerful way possible!" I just had NO idea at the time I prayed that prayer that God's healing was different than what I had in my heart. Higher ways, indeed, and that trial definitely drew me closer to the Throne and gave me the endurance to run this race of my son's journey with the same disease. He is faithful every day and I thank Him for how He has indeed used the trials in my life to give me the best gift of all.....a closer, deeper relationship with Him. I will be a slave to righteousness any day. This study started with a bang, for sure. Can't wait till next week! :)
Danielle, I have told you before and I say again -- your faith in the Lord is awe inspiring. You have gone through SO MUCH, and rather than be bitter or angry with God, you speak always of how your relationship and faith walk have been STRENGTHENED. You said 1,000 times stronger.....BECAUSE of what you went through! What an amazing testimony of God's goodness and faithfulness. And thank you as well for the very real insight that God's answers are not always what we expect. His answer was indeed painful in your life, and unimaginably hard. Yet as I kept reading, there it was again....your faith and trust in the Lord. Praying the Lord's continued blessings upon you as you cling to Him, sis.
This James study comes at the perfect time in my life. I'm going through various trials so your encouragement for us to endure so we are strengthened and become more like Christ is just what I need. Thank you for your passion, your commitment to truth, and your desire for God's people to live according to His word.
Rhonda, I'm so grateful to God that this is timely for you. God is so good and faithful to strengthen and encourage us during difficult trials. It's timely for me as well. So thankful that we can walk together as we study this book and draw closer to the Lord.
Yes and AMEN! I am soooooo GRATEFUL for this teaching this morning! Going to read and meditate on this Word so it can saturate me with Hope, Peace, Strength and Joy.
I love this study and it is so very timely. I understand that there will be many trials, and I am indeed growing in spiritual maturity, thanks be to God! I've been very aware how differently I am walking through my current challenge as opposed to a similar trial a year ago almost to the date! I'm sincerely thankful that my perspective has changed and I am clinging to God with a far stronger faith! Thank you for this Bible study, Kim! My God continue to richly bless you and keep you!
I am so thankful for your obedience to the Lord. This is amazing and needed!!! I can't wait to see how the Lord moves in the lives of everyone watching these videos. My heart is full of thanksgiving!
I am truly praying for the Lord to move in each of our lives, and so glad to be studying with you! Thank you so much for your encouragement. Blessings to you!
Great teaching Kim. Thank you for really clearing up the slave and servant difference. I do believe many have decided to not believe because they relate slave with our ancestors being slaves. James was no nonsense. I'm learning as I type to consider it all joy. Is it hard yes, but is it possible yes! "I too shall be like a tree" That's my goal. Looking forward to the next bible study with you!❤🌹
Mia, I'm so thankful you found that part helpful about slave and servant. I am right with you, learning to consider it all joy as each trial comes. I love how James exhorts us to trust God fully. "I too shall be like a tree"....love that!
I've never clicked so fast before in my life. As soon as my notification went off, I was ready. Bible opened ready for this teaching. I'm so over myself. I've read the book of James many times, but it's nice to have a teaching along with others on the same path. I pray that we all have the boldness to go before the throne of God and ask for what we need in faith in Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior. Thank you Kim for allowing the Lord to use you. Have a blessed day
Josette, I so love that you were ready with your Bible opened. What a heart for God! It truly is a blessing to be able to walk through this book with others in this way. I'm joining in your prayer that we all have the boldness to go before the throne and ask.... Amen! And so thankful for your sweet encouragement, sis. xo
Just started today it’s almost 2 am, my husband is asleep next to me and I’m crying. The Lord knew I needed this bible study. I don’t know how I found this study but I immediately ordered the journal. Thank you for pouring into me what God has poured into you. To God be the glory!!
God is so good and so faithful. What a blessing to hear that the study resonated with you. I pray the Lord meets you in a special way as you go through the lessons. Blessings to you, sis. And amen, to God be the glory!
I am still stuck on servant. I think it is hitting me so deeply because in my past, I couldn't be a total servant of God because I was already a servant of man. Not with drugs or alcohol, but in needing their approval of me. With that need, I couldn't fully say yes to Jesus because I feared offending them and subconsciously I felt I couldn't offend them because I was living off of their praise. I could speak on absolute topics like fornication and murder, but when it came to more intangible sins like unforgiveness , I would stammer because I didn't want to be frowned upon as self-righteous or too religious. I would say it, but very apologetically. For instance, if someone had a dominant personality and they'd already given me favor, and it turns out they were treating someone perpetually unkind and I knew in my heart that God disapproved, it would be hard for me to say something to them. I would be silent instead of saying "Sister, you need to walk in love even for your sake. Because God says if you don't love, then you aren't His. Or, "Sister, you must ask God to help you forgive because if we don't forgive others, He can't forgive us." I had to search for the most feeble words so I could retain her favor. Or if I wanted to share the truth about hell with someone who was skeptical sometimes I would refrain not wanting to be mocked. (Not all of the time, but any time I hesitate from fear is too many.) I hated that about myself and yearned to be like Paul who didn't care what anyone said. I wanted to become a Galatians 1:10 girl " Am I now trying to win the approval of human beings, or of God? Or am I trying to please people? If I were still trying to please people, I would not be a servant of Christ." So, I've improved significantly, but now I am asking God if there is still any part of me that would put the praise of men over His praise. If so, Jesus please remove it so I can fully serve You! Let me only have one Lord in my life! You Jesus!!. Serving God frees me, serving man enslaves me.
Wow!!! Thank you so much for your testimony. I, too, have struggled with "people pleasing" all my life, but in my current trial it raised its ugly head in a way I could have never imagined.....in my health. I have, now, been forced to deal with it. Your words pierced my spirit when you said, "I couldn't fully say yes to Jesus because I feared offending them..." I never thought of my need to please as getting in the way of serving Christ. You really have enlightened me to something here by reading this. Thank you for sharing Galatians 1:10. Sounds like a verse I need to meditate on. Again, thank you for sharing and being transparent. To God be the glory for your heart to share!
Oh my sister, thank you so much for your reply. I appreciate that my battle stirred something in you! God reveals things so He can walk us out of them. So praise Him that He is walking us completely out of the clutches of people pleasing and into the freedom of God pleasing!!
This self-examination is everything, Jaimie. And I know it's the Lord who is leading you. He gives us such insight into ourselves, and thankfully, He also gives grace to draw closer to Him as we do. I love Galatians 1:10 and call it to mind often, because there are so many situations in which we can stumble due to seeking the approval of man, I pray the Lord's strength upon us all to serve Him only and walk with our eyes fixed on Him alone. Thank you for inspiring with your heart for Jesus.
OMGosh, I just found you and I love you already! This is my second video, I am literally only 3min. in and am in awe! I just went to double check your assertion about the word James used; doulos, and sure enough..... SLAVE. Some of your viewers that don't have a lot of books at their disposal may be interested in a free computer download I use.... it's called e-Sword... it lets you select the bible version you prefer and you can click on any word and it gives you the Greek and Hebrew word. My KJV uses the word servant, but when I clicked on it, it said DOULOS.... slave. Thank you again for taking the time to teach those of us that really want to learn! Blessings to you!
Blessings on blessings on blessings as you continue to go forth in Jesus Name! I am encouraged by your persistence and your power not to be stopped. God Bless you and an early happy new year to you Bible Teacher Kim! That's one of the gifts! Keep teaching and reaching and most of all keep #clingin as we continue to watch and study through your videos and beyond! God bless your life!!! And your family, HAPPY EARLY NEW YEAR!!! #Clingin in 2019🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🤗😊
I have always felt inferior when I read this book of JAMES but with the clarity of your message has opened my mind and heart to a new understanding of what we can look forward to understanding the race we all have to endure and to get wisdom to help us make the journey worth the trials we will have because the goal is to draw nearer to God! 🙏
It is 2021 and I am thankful for finding this teaching. Our church is committing this year to developing better relationship with God, real and authentic. This study is one of my growth steps in drawing closer to God. Thank you for your Cling ministry!!🙏🏽
Giving up isn't always walking out of a situation or walking out on someone. Sometimes it's just giving up on your conviction to handle a situation in a godly manner. This message is a blessing!
I have been serving, honoring my elderly father for the past 4-5 months and the timing of this study is totally by the Spirit of God! Both my dad and I are studying together having a special time together learning more and more as we cling to our Heavenly Father through our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Thank you Kim. We have you in our prayers! 😌🙏🏾💕🔥
Elizabeth-Ann, what a blessing that you are caring for your father, mind, body, and spirit. And that you would be praying for me as well! This truly blessed my soul. Praying the Lord's continued blessings upon you both. xoxo
Wow. Only twelve verses into Chapter one and SO much goodness and instruction! Always learn something extra from your teachings. May God continue to bless your work!
I love that it took you about 6 minutes to explain bond servant. So many times when I read the Bible I just assume I know the meaning of words. I need to dig deeper and find out what it really means. I love your teachings and books. That’s why I wanted to watch what you learned from James. God bless you in your ministry.
Thank you so much Kim! I really loved your breakdown of bond-servant, what it means to consider, and endurance! Totally shifted my perspective in the best way. Jesus endured knowing the joy set before all of us, and we endure knowing the kingdom before us - wow!
@kimcashtate thank you for this teaching. Your understanding of the Word and your ability to break it down is a blessing. And your honesty- “I don’t care about a perfect end - I want this over” 👈🏾 that part! But you have challenged me to not fight against the trial but to seek God for His purpose in this trial! I’ve read through the book of James this month and when I found your study - I said now let me go deeper! THANK YOU.
Kim thank you for this. I have my journal, I am listening, pausing, rewinding and thinking how it applies to me, my walk and everything that I knew before. 🤔
Thank you, I needed this today. I truly believe my finding your you tube channel was divine intervention. Thank you for obeying God and operating in your gift. I have subscribed to your channel. God continual blessings upon you and your family.
Having a praise break on my lunch break. The love, faithfulness and strength I hear in these words are making me go back in my head who I use to be and what I've been through makes me fall in love with Jesus all over again!! Love this!! Thank you!! 😊😊😊
Thank You SO MUCH! I am reading Cling and watching the Series. This Bible Study is just what I need. I feel like I have my own personal teacher. I look forward to our time studying. Blessings to you.
"let". That is such a powerful little word and I never realised it before you said it. Thank you so much for teaching me. I love the way you explain the Bible.
Ms Kim...I love your teaching! I love how God has blessed you and created you the way He has! But Ms Kim...I also love your home! Every time the camera pans around...I take a second to stop listening to God's word, to enjoy what God has given you. Sigh! Pray for me to stay focused!
Oh, Barbara, that's not my home. :) We filmed at a beautiful home in Santa Fe, and we loved it as well! Thank you so much for your warm encouragement. So glad to be studying with you!
@@kimcashtate Please know that I am especially endeared to you even more! You did not have to say that was not your home. My main concern was that I had trouble staying focused on God's word...when the camera panned around this beautiful home, because I love Interior Design so much. I am so eager to meet you in heaven, my sweet and humble sister! Maybe after you get your eyes off Jesus for a minute, you will let me run with you a bit in heaven.
I listen to James each morning and I feel like a different but connecting message comes to surface. Initially I felt the deep dive. This morning I can see how a little hot water builds patience and confidence in Him whom I trust. I just ❤️ the Lord
Praise God! Lord open our eyes to you and the grace and mercy of Jesus Christ. Let us Cling to you Lord. We worship you Lord. Thank you Father for your love. In Jesus Christ name Amen. Thank you WOG for obedience.
I love your teachings Kim and my prayer is that God will bless you for helping us learn the word of God. I have introduced your clips to all family and friends and they all love it even more than I do. My sister absolutely loves you!
Aww, wow, Lydia, what a praise unto God. xo I'm so grateful for this encouragement and thankful to be studying with you! Praying God's blessings as we all study this book together!
Powerful exortation sister I'm glad I subscribed to this channel a long time ago thanks a lot of things stood out to me from what you said such as when you said ,"whatever way you cling to God just cling to him".😇😇😇😇😇😇😇 thanks may God continue to bless you and your family 😊😊😊
Great lesson... Again and again you make the word of God so simple to understand. Amen to your prayer as well. Thank you Kim for answering the call to Cling.... This walk in life is not easy, but with God’s unfailing love He will see us through. Keep Clinging
Been waiting patiently for this! 😇Very Powerful study! I love how James is encouraging us to activate our Faith during trials & tests. In ALL things we must trust, lean, depend and CLING to God and His word. We grow through what we go through🙌🏾...Great Study Sis! You did an amazing job breaking down the words & scripture, I thoroughly enjoyed it! Have an amazingly blessed day! 🌹
Amen, Keisha...."trust, lean, depend and CLING..." I love that! We truly do grow through what we go through. So thankful to be studying this book with you!
Great lesson. I bought the cling journal and will use it to write down my prayers to god. Thank you for doing what u do. I have a better understanding.💜
WoW! Its another one! Day one watch only Day 2 watch take notes meditate on scriptures Day 3 the re watch gleaning with weightier perspective System in place lets go Sis Friend Ms Kim. I love you Maam! Im in prayer i know this is going to bless, thank you for all of the effort.
Wow, Rena, what a system....you are serious! I love it! :) I'm in prayer as well and so thankful for how the Lord meets us as we study His word. He is such a faithful God. Blessings to you, dear sister!
Sis, I am so thankful you are back with another series to edify the body of Christ. I am overjoyed that you have consistently and humbly walked in your calling without fear or something in return. Your series have been something my whole family and watch. You speak with such clarity and detail; making it easy for little ones and older to understand. Lastly, I wanted to ask which bible are you using in the video. I like the layout of it from what I see. Many Many Blessings- Brittney
Doulos. I'm stuck there. To be a slave to God. He isn't saying He wants me to accept His enslavement because God doesn't enslave (Exodus 21:16). He abhors subjugation. But He is asking me have I committed my entire being to Him. Is my will truly His will no matter what. Am I sold out...literally. Am I totally sold out for Jesus Christ...no looking back...Is anything on this earth powerful enough to sway me? I'm going to meditate on that today. Thank you Kim. I really love the depth of this study.
Jaimie, I love how you seek the Lord and meditate on His word. You are willing to go wherever He leads, and that's such a praise. May God bless you in a mighty way as you seek Him.
Hi! This was my first time on your channel and this helped me with my bible study so much! The only thing is the camera shots (to the side, scanning the room, etc) got a tad bit distracting. If you could just keep the camera on you throughout that would help a lot! Thanks so much for this though!
Hey SiS, All I can say is that I was at the table, the feast was good and filled my belly. Thank you. I love the higligted words, Consider, knowing and let. I am going through it to get to it. Do not relinquish our faith with doubt. Amen.
Sis, so thankful to be feasting at the table with you. God is so good. Amen, let us journey on with faith and no doubting Our God is faithful. Blessings to you!
As I was reviewing my notes, I kept being drawn to patience. So I prayed for patience. A few hours later, we were running late to an appointment and when my kids opened the car door, there was a FROG in the car!!! He hopped his happy self under a seat where I could not get to him and while my kids were refusing to get in the car, a bug flew in through the open door while I was standing there and not-so-patiently urging them to get in. I offered a bravery award (Chick-fil-A) and they got in the car and we arrived to our appointment 10 minutes late. My daughter covered her face the entire trip and I tried to appear brave while I kept checking around me for Kermit. Patience level=0. But hey, we had Chick-fil-A 😂
Kina, I was so there, feeling what you felt! That would've been a true test of patience and bravery for me because I would not have wanted to get in that car. Lol Praise God for showing up in even those things, and getting you where you needed to go. And you got Chick-fil-A as a bonus! :))
Oh my goodness Sis. Kim this was a blessing!!!! I couldn't help but notice towards the end of your video the sunshine cascaded fully down one side of your face. I use to think these were God's kisses on my cheek as the sun would hit my face. I pray many blessings on you and your family as you continue to do the work of the LORD. Thank you for allowing Him to use you to remind me I am a slave to God. He has used your teachings to help me understand I don't have to pretend with Him.
So thankful for your warm words of encouragement, sis. I'm truly praising God. He is so faithful. And what a praise that you don't feel you have to pretend with Him. AMEN! Blessings to you!
Kim, LOVE, LOVE, LOVE How you lead the study of James like this! So dynamic and interesting! I learn so much from your videos! I do have one question though: I am sensitive to repetition. Don't want to be but it's a real thing! :/ This study had the same 4 notes repeating over and over throughout the study, which made it hard for me to concentrate on the message. I love music, but the repetition like this makes my head hurt :( Do you have this available without the background music? Or can you make some of these with music that flows onward instead of repeating? This is not meant as a negative, I am braving putting this out here because I love the way you lead out and the excitement you have! It makes me more excited too!
HALLELUJAH ! AMEN! O Lord - by Your grace and in Your suffering , through faith - no longer a slave to sin - but a slave to Righteous! #Bondservant of Christ Complete entire wanting nothing! Glory to You Jesus !
Amen!! I've been going through a very tough moment in my life, and I can't understand why things are happening in this way. This situation is challenging my faith for sure. And I hope God honors my faith in Him. Many times I get hopeless, and I'm trying to endure. Can you pray for me sister? Please.. I really need it.
Ilitia, I so understand as I have been through very trying times that challenged my faith. I can tell you that it was in those times that my relationship with God deepened. He knows and understands and HE will give you strength to endure. Praying for you right now, sister. Blessings to you. 🙏🏽❤️
@@kimcashtate I tried also to contact you in your Twitter. Is there some way to have an appointment with you. I don't have a pastor here where I live, and I need to talk with a real godly woman. I need help so much!! Can you help me?
Praising God that you love the study, Kristal, as well as the music! :) It was specially produced for the study, but we may make it available for download. If so, I'll let you know!
Thank you so much, Kim! The study is off to a great start! I read the book of James last week in preparation and it’s exciting to dive in more deeply with you during this series. I’m not gon lie. I want to be coddled. 😂 But I know that’s not healthy and won’t help me grow into maturity. I will be praying and meditating on the things discussed and I look forward to next week’s video! 😊
Kina, I hear you about the coddling! :) Spiritual growth can be hard! But I'm so thankful for the Lord's grace and strength. So thankful to be studying this book with you and praying the Lord helps us all to grow!
Lord, You have told us through Your word to cling to You. Thank You that this is Your desire. We praise You that a holy and mighty God would invite us to walk so closely with You. And thank You, Lord, that we can know You through Your word, be strengthened through Your word, gain wisdom and guidance through Your word, and be corrected and re-directed by Your word. I pray that You would meet each of us who are doing this study in a strong and personal way. Help us, Lord, to draw closer to You. We need You, Lord. We need the help of Your presence. I pray that You would use the book of James to open our eyes, awaken our souls, move us to repentance, deepen our faith, and cause us to run the race with endurance for Christ. And I pray that You would use this book to draw us near, to cling to You. Help us to love You with all our heart, mind, soul, and strength, in Jesus’ name. Amen.
Hi dear how can a get your books.
Amen
I am so inspired by your teaching style thank you for doing this. Love you. God bless you❤
Amen! Thank you so much. God continue to bless you and your family.
Amen

I told my husband Kim my sister in Christ is going to have a bible study on James, therefore I started reading James the intro and James chapter 1; may I tell you Kim there is nothing better than to have someone as yourself to break it down with knowledge and hard studying, has helped me to understand it better, not that the biblical message was not understood, but when you do it with someone as you. I see you as my biblical teacher. If you have read partial testimony when you gave yours, I was brought up in a dysfunctional Christian home and came to understand the Bible much better in my late 50s all I knew was Christ was crucified, but not the reason behind it. Stay blessed and looking forward for the next lesson 🙏🙌❤⚘
Irma, I'm so grateful to God that the teaching is helpful to you. God is so faithful. And praise God for your hunger for His word. This truly encouraged me. So glad to be studying this book with you. Blessings to you!

I always say I'm desperate for God....I need His help for EVERYTHING! :) I'm so thankful He gives willingly and generously. Thank you for sharing this. Love studying this book with you already!
The GOAT Bible teacher. Thanks so much, sister. ♥️
Jeeya LOL! I love that!!
🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️
Wow, just wow! You know how you know something because you experienced it but then someone comes along and just puts it all together? This is what I felt like watching this. I have been through many trials and have experienced God like I never would had these things not happened to me. They were so painful at the time. I was even bitter at the Lord. Tearfully asking him: “ lord why am I here? I don’t want to be here. No!” But now I can sit here and say... God IS faithful. God WILL provide. God DOES answer MY prayers. Grateful for this reminder and encouragement to keep going in my walk and to encourage others who are struggling. I’m grateful for the encouragement to ask for wisdom especially when I don’t know what to do about something or I have to make a decision And I’m not sure what to do. Thanks Kim!
Renee, I love hearing this praise about God showing His faithfulness through trials. He truly does. Through the pain and the tears, He shows us Himself and draws us even closer. Thank you for sharing this. I'm so grateful to God that the lesson spoke to you. xo
kimcashtate ❤️
❤
Sis. Renee, I, too, have experienced bitterness of the soul with God during my most recent wilderness experience. He had to reveal it to me, because my pride kept me from seeing it. Thank you for your transparency because it truly blessed me.
" . . . Count it all joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance . . ." Excellent Study! Deep dives! Thanks, Kim!
So thankful to be studying with you, sis!
This was soo good. I couldn't even take notes. You had me in a trance as you spoke. I gotta go back and watch it again so I can take notes.
Going deep even in the first 12 verses! :) I was nodding, saying "Amen" all the way through. I remember studying this book WAYYYYY back when in grade school, thinking my "trials" were no big deal...."I got this, and yes, I'm enduring for God....yay, me." HAHA - now, looking back on what I've walked through, what I AM walking through, and what I know is still to come I can say, fully, God IS good! The Christian walk is truly no joke, and there WILL be trials, but I can definitely say that my faith and walk with God is 1,000 times stronger now BECAUSE of what He has put in my life to walk through. I love this, at 12:32 ---> "Through trial, we come to know God as our rock, our refuge, and our strength." AMEN!!
And I loved the section about asking - how awesome is it that the King of the Universe wants us to come to Him and ASK? That just gets me all the time.....however, we need to be prepared for just HOW He will respond when we are bold to ask. His ways are truly higher than ours, because His answers are not always what we expect - I prayed for my little girl to be healed 4 years ago, and God took her Home. It took me almost a year after her death to have that light bulb moment when I realized - "Wow, He DID answer my prayer. He DID heal my daughter in the most amazing, powerful way possible!" I just had NO idea at the time I prayed that prayer that God's healing was different than what I had in my heart. Higher ways, indeed, and that trial definitely drew me closer to the Throne and gave me the endurance to run this race of my son's journey with the same disease. He is faithful every day and I thank Him for how He has indeed used the trials in my life to give me the best gift of all.....a closer, deeper relationship with Him. I will be a slave to righteousness any day.
This study started with a bang, for sure. Can't wait till next week! :)
Danielle, I have told you before and I say again -- your faith in the Lord is awe inspiring. You have gone through SO MUCH, and rather than be bitter or angry with God, you speak always of how your relationship and faith walk have been STRENGTHENED. You said 1,000 times stronger.....BECAUSE of what you went through! What an amazing testimony of God's goodness and faithfulness.
And thank you as well for the very real insight that God's answers are not always what we expect. His answer was indeed painful in your life, and unimaginably hard. Yet as I kept reading, there it was again....your faith and trust in the Lord. Praying the Lord's continued blessings upon you as you cling to Him, sis.
There is no test without testimonies. Amen. I am in tears. I needed this today.
This James study comes at the perfect time in my life. I'm going through various trials so your encouragement for us to endure so we are strengthened and become more like Christ is just what I need. Thank you for your passion, your commitment to truth, and your desire for God's people to live according to His word.
Rhonda, I'm so grateful to God that this is timely for you. God is so good and faithful to strengthen and encourage us during difficult trials. It's timely for me as well. So thankful that we can walk together as we study this book and draw closer to the Lord.
Thank you so much. I look forward to your lessons. You are a blessing and it has changed my life.You make bible study soooooo much fun.
Yes and AMEN! I am soooooo GRATEFUL for this teaching this morning! Going to read and meditate on this Word so it can saturate me with Hope, Peace, Strength and Joy.
I love this study and it is so very timely. I understand that there will be many trials, and I am indeed growing in spiritual maturity, thanks be to God! I've been very aware how differently I am walking through my current challenge as opposed to a similar trial a year ago almost to the date! I'm sincerely thankful that my perspective has changed and I am clinging to God with a far stronger faith! Thank you for this Bible study, Kim! My God continue to richly bless you and keep you!
Thank you Kim for allowing God to use you! Looking forward to next week but until then I will meditate on these 12 verses. God bless...
Amen, Felecia, I've been meditating on them as well. Blessings to you also!
Thank Jesus for this word. Kim this is good stuff. I'm so glad God has given you this platform. You are such a blessing big sis!
I am so thankful for your obedience to the Lord. This is amazing and needed!!! I can't wait to see how the Lord moves in the lives of everyone watching these videos. My heart is full of thanksgiving!
I am truly praying for the Lord to move in each of our lives, and so glad to be studying with you! Thank you so much for your encouragement. Blessings to you!
This lesson spoke to me today, I am working on my soul , in wanting to be a better person. Thank you for sharing.
Great teaching Kim. Thank you for really clearing up the slave and servant difference. I do believe many have decided to not believe because they relate slave with our ancestors being slaves. James was no nonsense. I'm learning as I type to consider it all joy. Is it hard yes, but is it possible yes! "I too shall be like a tree" That's my goal. Looking forward to the next bible study with you!❤🌹
Mia, I'm so thankful you found that part helpful about slave and servant. I am right with you, learning to consider it all joy as each trial comes. I love how James exhorts us to trust God fully. "I too shall be like a tree"....love that!
I've never clicked so fast before in my life. As soon as my notification went off, I was ready. Bible opened ready for this teaching. I'm so over myself. I've read the book of James many times, but it's nice to have a teaching along with others on the same path. I pray that we all have the boldness to go before the throne of God and ask for what we need in faith in Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior. Thank you Kim for allowing the Lord to use you. Have a blessed day
Josette Webster amen!
Josette, I so love that you were ready with your Bible opened. What a heart for God! It truly is a blessing to be able to walk through this book with others in this way. I'm joining in your prayer that we all have the boldness to go before the throne and ask.... Amen! And so thankful for your sweet encouragement, sis. xo
@@kimcashtate you're so welcome.
Awesome beginning. Great video today. I enjoy how you teach the bible. Can't wait for the next one
So thankful to be studying with you, Bryan!
Just started today it’s almost 2 am, my husband is asleep next to me and I’m crying. The Lord knew I needed this bible study. I don’t know how I found this study but I immediately ordered the journal. Thank you for pouring into me what God has poured into you. To God be the glory!!
God is so good and so faithful. What a blessing to hear that the study resonated with you. I pray the Lord meets you in a special way as you go through the lessons. Blessings to you, sis. And amen, to God be the glory!
I am still stuck on servant. I think it is hitting me so deeply because in my past, I couldn't be a total servant of God because I was already a servant of man. Not with drugs or alcohol, but in needing their approval of me. With that need, I couldn't fully say yes to Jesus because I feared offending them and subconsciously I felt I couldn't offend them because I was living off of their praise.
I could speak on absolute topics like fornication and murder, but when it came to more intangible sins like unforgiveness , I would stammer because I didn't want to be frowned upon as self-righteous or too religious. I would say it, but very apologetically.
For instance, if someone had a dominant personality and they'd already given me favor, and it turns out they were treating someone perpetually unkind and I knew in my heart that God disapproved, it would be hard for me to say something to them. I would be silent instead of saying "Sister, you need to walk in love even for your sake. Because God says if you don't love, then you aren't His. Or, "Sister, you must ask God to help you forgive because if we don't forgive others, He can't forgive us." I had to search for the most feeble words so I could retain her favor.
Or if I wanted to share the truth about hell with someone who was skeptical sometimes I would refrain not wanting to be mocked. (Not all of the time, but any time I hesitate from fear is too many.)
I hated that about myself and yearned to be like Paul who didn't care what anyone said. I wanted to become a Galatians 1:10 girl " Am I now trying to win the approval of human beings, or of God? Or am I trying to please people? If I were still trying to please people, I would not be a servant of Christ."
So, I've improved significantly, but now I am asking God if there is still any part of me that would put the praise of men over His praise. If so, Jesus please remove it so I can fully serve You! Let me only have one Lord in my life! You Jesus!!.
Serving God frees me, serving man enslaves me.
Wow!!! Thank you so much for your testimony. I, too, have struggled with "people pleasing" all my life, but in my current trial it raised its ugly head in a way I could have never imagined.....in my health. I have, now, been forced to deal with it. Your words pierced my spirit when you said, "I couldn't fully say yes to Jesus because I feared offending them..." I never thought of my need to please as getting in the way of serving Christ. You really have enlightened me to something here by reading this. Thank you for sharing Galatians 1:10. Sounds like a verse I need to meditate on. Again, thank you for sharing and being transparent. To God be the glory for your heart to share!
Oh my sister, thank you so much for your reply. I appreciate that my battle stirred something in you! God reveals things so He can walk us out of them. So praise Him that He is walking us completely out of the clutches of people pleasing and into the freedom of God pleasing!!
This self-examination is everything, Jaimie. And I know it's the Lord who is leading you. He gives us such insight into ourselves, and thankfully, He also gives grace to draw closer to Him as we do. I love Galatians 1:10 and call it to mind often, because there are so many situations in which we can stumble due to seeking the approval of man, I pray the Lord's strength upon us all to serve Him only and walk with our eyes fixed on Him alone. Thank you for inspiring with your heart for Jesus.
OMGosh, I just found you and I love you already! This is my second video, I am literally only 3min. in and am in awe! I just went to double check your assertion about the word James used; doulos, and sure enough..... SLAVE. Some of your viewers that don't have a lot of books at their disposal may be interested in a free computer download I use.... it's called e-Sword... it lets you select the bible version you prefer and you can click on any word and it gives you the Greek and Hebrew word. My KJV uses the word servant, but when I clicked on it, it said DOULOS.... slave. Thank you again for taking the time to teach those of us that really want to learn! Blessings to you!
So thankful to be studying with you, Lyndia! Blessings to you as well!
Blessings on blessings on blessings as you continue to go forth in Jesus Name! I am encouraged by your persistence and your power not to be stopped. God Bless you and an early happy new year to you Bible Teacher Kim! That's one of the gifts! Keep teaching and reaching and most of all keep #clingin as we continue to watch and study through your videos and beyond! God bless your life!!! And your family, HAPPY EARLY NEW YEAR!!! #Clingin in 2019🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🤗😊
Hi Kim, Way to go! What a style and way of making scripture very clear. 👌🏻
Praise God, Jenelle, thank you so much for your encouragement. xo
I have always felt inferior when I read this book of JAMES but with the clarity of your message has opened my mind and heart to a new understanding of what we can look forward to understanding the race we all have to endure and to get wisdom to help us make the journey worth the trials we will have because the goal is to draw nearer to God! 🙏
It is 2021 and I am thankful for finding this teaching. Our church is committing this year to developing better relationship with God, real and authentic. This study is one of my growth steps in drawing closer to God. Thank you for your Cling ministry!!🙏🏽
Giving up isn't always walking out of a situation or walking out on someone. Sometimes it's just giving up on your conviction to handle a situation in a godly manner. This message is a blessing!
That's so true. Amen. Lord, help us to stay the course in Your name.
I have been serving, honoring my elderly father for the past 4-5 months and the timing of this study is totally by the Spirit of God! Both my dad and I are studying together having a special time together learning more and more as we cling to our Heavenly Father through our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Thank you Kim. We have you in our prayers! 😌🙏🏾💕🔥
Elizabeth-Ann, what a blessing that you are caring for your father, mind, body, and spirit. And that you would be praying for me as well! This truly blessed my soul. Praying the Lord's continued blessings upon you both. xoxo
Awesome Word!!! I needed to hear this word this morning. Thank you!!!🤗
Praising God for that, Latoya!
Wow. Only twelve verses into Chapter one and SO much goodness and instruction! Always learn something extra from your teachings. May God continue to bless your work!
That's such a blessing to hear, Rose. So thankful for the Lord's faithfulness. And thank you always for your sweet encouragement!
I love that it took you about 6 minutes to explain bond servant. So many times when I read the Bible I just assume I know the meaning of words. I need to dig deeper and find out what it really means. I love your teachings and books. That’s why I wanted to watch what you learned from James. God bless you in your ministry.
Thank you so much Kim! I really loved your breakdown of bond-servant, what it means to consider, and endurance! Totally shifted my perspective in the best way. Jesus endured knowing the joy set before all of us, and we endure knowing the kingdom before us - wow!
I'm back in james and re-listening to this series of messages. Thank you so much for this solid teaching.
Amen! Awesome teaching! The Book of James gets me all the way together lol! Thank you for sharing your insight and revelation on this word.
The book of James does exactly that, sis! :) So thankful to be studying with you!
@kimcashtate thank you for this teaching. Your understanding of the Word and your ability to break it down is a blessing. And your honesty- “I don’t care about a perfect end - I want this over” 👈🏾 that part!
But you have challenged me to not fight against the trial but to seek God for His purpose in this trial! I’ve read through the book of James this month and when I found your study - I said now let me go deeper! THANK YOU.
I love the new setup for this Bible study and I greatly appreciate the message! Like always, it's right on time!!!
So thankful for your encouragement, Erica, and thankful to be studying with you!
Thank you Kim
Well taught! Thank you ABBA for clarification!! Thank you for your servant Sister Kim Castate
Kim thank you for this. I have my journal, I am listening, pausing, rewinding and thinking how it applies to me, my walk and everything that I knew before. 🤔
Wow, Chandra, praise God. I know the Lord is doing a mighty work in your heart. So thankful to be studying this book with you. Blessings to you!
Thank you, I needed this today. I truly believe my finding your you tube channel was divine intervention. Thank you for obeying God and operating in your gift. I have subscribed to your channel. God continual blessings upon you and your family.
Hallelujah I thank our God for you! This study is making a difference in my life. Thanks for the supporting study book!
Having a praise break on my lunch break. The love, faithfulness and strength I hear in these words are making me go back in my head who I use to be and what I've been through makes me fall in love with Jesus all over again!! Love this!! Thank you!! 😊😊😊
What a praise! AMEN! Blessings to you, sis!
Thank You SO MUCH! I am reading Cling and watching the Series. This Bible Study is just what I need. I feel like I have my own personal teacher. I look forward to our time studying. Blessings to you.
"let". That is such a powerful little word and I never realised it before you said it. Thank you so much for teaching me. I love the way you explain the Bible.
I so agree that that's a powerful word. I've been meditating on it myself. Blessings to you as we study this book together!
Thank you so much for the words of wisdom.
Thankful to be studying with you, Kay!
Praise the Lord. Beautiful words. Thanks kim. God bless you and your family. Amen.
Thank you so much and blessings to you as well!
Ms Kim...I love your teaching! I love how God has blessed you and created you the way He has!
But Ms Kim...I also love your home! Every time the camera pans around...I take a second to stop listening to God's word, to enjoy what God has given you.
Sigh! Pray for me to stay focused!
Oh, Barbara, that's not my home. :) We filmed at a beautiful home in Santa Fe, and we loved it as well! Thank you so much for your warm encouragement. So glad to be studying with you!
@@kimcashtate Please know that I am especially endeared to you even more! You did not have to say that was not your home. My main concern was that I had trouble staying focused on God's word...when the camera panned around this beautiful home, because I love Interior Design so much. I am so eager to meet you in heaven, my sweet and humble sister! Maybe after you get your eyes off Jesus for a minute, you will let me run with you a bit in heaven.
I listen to James each morning and I feel like a different but connecting message comes to surface. Initially I felt the deep dive. This morning I can see how a little hot water builds patience and confidence in Him whom I trust. I just ❤️ the Lord
Wow, I love this, Laverne. Praise God! And oh, how I love Him too. He is so good and so faithful!
Praise God! Lord open our eyes to you and the grace and mercy of Jesus Christ. Let us Cling to you Lord. We worship you Lord. Thank you Father for your love. In Jesus Christ name Amen. Thank you WOG for obedience.
Amen, Veronica. Amen!
Praise GOD.. Diving In The book of James! Great Job Kim, I Pray GOD blesses you to continue ALL the way thru to Revelation IJN
Wow! :) So thankful for your encouragement, Leigh. xo
I love your teachings Kim and my prayer is that God will bless you for helping us learn the word of God.
I have introduced your clips to all family and friends and they all love it even more than I do. My sister absolutely loves you!
Aww, wow, Lydia, what a praise unto God. xo I'm so grateful for this encouragement and thankful to be studying with you! Praying God's blessings as we all study this book together!
I absolutely love and appreciate how you read the word verse by verse...
So thankful for that, sis, praise God.
Good morning...I’m here listening to the word! Amen🤗
Latoya Gordon Read along with your bible. It’s like you are in the room with her.
Love it, Latoya! Amen!
Powerful exortation sister I'm glad I subscribed to this channel a long time ago thanks a lot of things stood out to me from what you said such as when you said ,"whatever way you cling to God just cling to him".😇😇😇😇😇😇😇 thanks may God continue to bless you and your family 😊😊😊
So thankful and blessings to you as well!
Thanks for this series!
Great lesson... Again and again you make the word of God so simple to understand. Amen to your prayer as well. Thank you Kim for answering the call to Cling.... This walk in life is not easy, but with God’s unfailing love He will see us through. Keep Clinging
GeJoan, amen, so thankful for God's unchanging love! He will ALWAYS see us through. SO glad to be studying with you again, sis!
Hallelujah God bless you Sister Kim. This study is truly blessings in my life🙏🏾🙌🏾🥰💃🏾 📖

Praising God for that and thankful to be studying with you!
Been waiting patiently for this! 😇Very Powerful study! I love how James is encouraging us to activate our Faith during trials & tests. In ALL things we must trust, lean, depend and CLING to God and His word. We grow through what we go through🙌🏾...Great Study Sis! You did an amazing job breaking down the words & scripture, I thoroughly enjoyed it! Have an amazingly blessed day! 🌹
Amen, Keisha...."trust, lean, depend and CLING..." I love that! We truly do grow through what we go through. So thankful to be studying this book with you!
Great lesson. I bought the cling journal and will use it to write down my prayers to god. Thank you for doing what u do. I have a better understanding.💜
This blesses me so much, Latoya, praise God. So thankful to be studying with you!

System in place lets go Sis Friend Ms Kim. I love you Maam! Im in prayer i know this is going to bless, thank you for all of the effort.
Wow, Rena, what a system....you are serious! I love it! :) I'm in prayer as well and so thankful for how the Lord meets us as we study His word. He is such a faithful God. Blessings to you, dear sister!
Sis, I am so thankful you are back with another series to edify the body of Christ. I am overjoyed that you have consistently and humbly walked in your calling without fear or something in return. Your series have been something my whole family and watch. You speak with such clarity and detail; making it easy for little ones and older to understand. Lastly, I wanted to ask which bible are you using in the video. I like the layout of it from what I see. Many Many Blessings- Brittney
Doulos. I'm stuck there. To be a slave to God. He isn't saying He wants me to accept His enslavement because God doesn't enslave (Exodus 21:16). He abhors subjugation.
But He is asking me have I committed my entire being to Him. Is my will truly His will no matter what. Am I sold out...literally.
Am I totally sold out for Jesus Christ...no looking back...Is anything on this earth powerful enough to sway me?
I'm going to meditate on that today.
Thank you Kim. I really love the depth of this study.
Jaimie, I love how you seek the Lord and meditate on His word. You are willing to go wherever He leads, and that's such a praise. May God bless you in a mighty way as you seek Him.
Eager to get this study started. Finally got the time! Here I go......❤
Your message is very good to listen to. GOD bless you 🙏 ❤️
Hi! This was my first time on your channel and this helped me with my bible study so much! The only thing is the camera shots (to the side, scanning the room, etc) got a tad bit distracting. If you could just keep the camera on you throughout that would help a lot! Thanks so much for this though!
Hey SiS,
All I can say is that I was at the table, the feast was good and filled my belly. Thank you. I love the higligted words, Consider, knowing and let. I am going through it to get to it. Do not relinquish our faith with doubt. Amen.
Sis, so thankful to be feasting at the table with you. God is so good. Amen, let us journey on with faith and no doubting Our God is faithful. Blessings to you!
As I was reviewing my notes, I kept being drawn to patience. So I prayed for patience. A few hours later, we were running late to an appointment and when my kids opened the car door, there was a FROG in the car!!! He hopped his happy self under a seat where I could not get to him and while my kids were refusing to get in the car, a bug flew in through the open door while I was standing there and not-so-patiently urging them to get in. I offered a bravery award (Chick-fil-A) and they got in the car and we arrived to our appointment 10 minutes late. My daughter covered her face the entire trip and I tried to appear brave while I kept checking around me for Kermit. Patience level=0. But hey, we had Chick-fil-A 😂
Kina, I was so there, feeling what you felt! That would've been a true test of patience and bravery for me because I would not have wanted to get in that car. Lol Praise God for showing up in even those things, and getting you where you needed to go. And you got Chick-fil-A as a bonus! :))
Oh my goodness Sis. Kim this was a blessing!!!! I couldn't help but notice towards the end of your video the sunshine cascaded fully down one side of your face. I use to think these were God's kisses on my cheek as the sun would hit my face. I pray many blessings on you and your family as you continue to do the work of the LORD. Thank you for allowing Him to use you to remind me I am a slave to God. He has used your teachings to help me understand I don't have to pretend with Him.
So thankful for your warm words of encouragement, sis. I'm truly praising God. He is so faithful. And what a praise that you don't feel you have to pretend with Him. AMEN! Blessings to you!
Thank you sis for bringing this, the lord is good and faithful,oh God course me to run this race of salvation in endurance to Christ Jesus amen.
Amen & amen! Blessings to you!
Awesome Bible study
Amen, Awesome word, Praise God.
So thankful to be studying with you!
Thank you for doing this.
Thankful to be studying with you, Rochelle!
Thank you 🙏🏾
Doulas is also a Doula we are using this would for women who help during labor.
I’m here!!! 😁😁
Thankful to be studying with you, Wanyenze!
Kim, LOVE, LOVE, LOVE How you lead the study of James like this! So dynamic and interesting! I learn so much from your videos!
I do have one question though: I am sensitive to repetition. Don't want to be but it's a real thing! :/ This study had the same 4 notes repeating over and over throughout the study, which made it hard for me to concentrate on the message. I love music, but the repetition like this makes my head hurt :( Do you have this available without the background music? Or can you make some of these with music that flows onward instead of repeating? This is not meant as a negative, I am braving putting this out here because I love the way you lead out and the excitement you have! It makes me more excited too!
So good!
Thankful to be studying with you, Bernice!
HALLELUJAH ! AMEN!
O Lord - by Your grace and in Your suffering , through faith - no longer a slave to sin - but a slave to Righteous!
#Bondservant of Christ
Complete entire wanting nothing!
Glory to You Jesus !
Very nice graphics, inviting in addition to your content..
Amen!! I've been going through a very tough moment in my life, and I can't understand why things are happening in this way. This situation is challenging my faith for sure. And I hope God honors my faith in Him.
Many times I get hopeless, and I'm trying to endure.
Can you pray for me sister? Please.. I really need it.
Ilitia, I so understand as I have been through very trying times that challenged my faith. I can tell you that it was in those times that my relationship with God deepened. He knows and understands and HE will give you strength to endure. Praying for you right now, sister. Blessings to you. 🙏🏽❤️
@@kimcashtate I tried also to contact you in your Twitter. Is there some way to have an appointment with you. I don't have a pastor here where I live, and I need to talk with a real godly woman. I need help so much!! Can you help me?
Amen, thanks
Thank you so much for this, : )
Excellent!
I really needed this ! Awesome lesson ! I learned so much today......Alisha
Praising God for this, Alisha, and so thankful to be studying with you!
Love this study!! The intro music if FYE! Who is this and where can I find it?
Praising God that you love the study, Kristal, as well as the music! :) It was specially produced for the study, but we may make it available for download. If so, I'll let you know!
I love this intro
Thank you so much, Kim! The study is off to a great start! I read the book of James last week in preparation and it’s exciting to dive in more deeply with you during this series. I’m not gon lie. I want to be coddled. 😂 But I know that’s not healthy and won’t help me grow into maturity. I will be praying and meditating on the things discussed and I look forward to next week’s video! 😊
Kina, I hear you about the coddling! :) Spiritual growth can be hard! But I'm so thankful for the Lord's grace and strength. So thankful to be studying this book with you and praying the Lord helps us all to grow!
