Bible Study Techniques
Do you find it difficult to study the Bible? Do you read, but the words seem to just sit on the
page? If you study but can’t seem to apply God’s word to
your everyday life in today’s world then perhaps this Bible study can help you.

Chose a Book from the Bible
This method will allow one to study one entire book at a time.
Start with a small book such as 1 Peter or 1 John.This method is great for beginners, however, it can
be geared to any level of study.Allow one to focus on specific book without “getting
lost” in to much information. Will allow one time to develop their own techniques.

Start with Prayer
One of the most common reasons that Christians don’t study the Bible is based upon the complaint, “I don’t understand it.”
Before the start of each study session began by praying and asking God to open your spiritual understanding.
As you pray, realize that the words you are studying are inspired by God.

2 Timothy 3:16“All scripture is God breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking,
correcting and training in righteousness. (NIV)
Psalm 119:130The unfolding of your words gives light; it
gives understanding to the simple. (NIV)

Read the Entire Book
Spend some time. Perhaps the next several days, reading through the entire book.
Do this more then once.Look for themes that may be woven through the
chapters.Sometimes a general message may be prevalent.The theme of the book of James is that of
“Persevering through Trials”.Take notes on ideas that jump out at you.

Zoom In
Next, slow down. Read the book verse by verse.This will help one to break the text and look for a
deeper understanding.Consulting a Bible dictionary can help one to better
understand the different meaning of different words used throughout the text.

Be a Doer of the Word at Your own Pace
Don’t just study God’s word for the sake of studying. Be sure to put the word into practice in your life.
Once you have finished the first book, choose another one and follow the same steps.
