I want to learn God's word

[TheWind]

And he (God) gave some apostles .. and some prophets .. and some evangelists .. and some teaching pastors ..
for the perfecting of the saints .. for the work of the ministry .. for the edifying of the body of Christ .. till we all come in the unity of the faith ..
and of the knowledge of the Son of God .. to a perfect (complete) man .. to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ . . . . Ephesians 4:12

Only the Spirit of God can teach you the deeper things of the scriptures.

You can memorize the whole book, but it takes knowing the author, or it is a waste of time.

 

[Waiting on him]

Always, always center every word around Christ, the volume of it is written of him

 

[Willie T]

When I was a kid hearing that in church, I thought that it was saying that I shall not want the LORD my Shepherd. Interesting how the choice of words can cause a misunderstanding like that for a kid who knows what "I shall not want" means.. like, a bite of shrimp I shall not want.
It took a while for me to discover that what I thought it meant was wrong. Then my thought was, 'well then why didn't it say that with the LORD as my Shepherd I shall not lack'? Now that, I understand!

Here it is written in a somewhat better way:
Psalm 23 The Passion Translation (TPT)
The Good Shepherd
23 David’s poetic praise to God
1 The Lord is my best friend and my shepherd.]
I always have more than enough.
2 He offers a resting place for me in his luxurious love.
His tracks take me to an oasis of peace, the quiet brook of bliss.
3 That’s where he restores and revives my life.
He opens before me pathways to God’s pleasure
and leads me along in his footsteps of righteousness
so that I can bring honor to his name.
4 Lord, even when your path takes me through
the valley of deepest darkness,
fear will never conquer me, for you already have!
You remain close to me and lead me through it all the way.
Your authority is my strength and my peace.
The comfort of your love takes away my fear.
I’ll never be lonely, for you are near.
5 You become my delicious feast
even when my enemies dare to fight.
You anoint me with the fragrance of your Holy Spirit;
you give me all I can drink of you until my heart overflows.
6 So why would I fear the future?
For your goodness and love pursue me all the days of my life.
Then afterward, when my life is through,
I’ll return to your glorious presence to be forever with you!

Footnotes:

1. Psalm 23:1 Most scholars conclude that Ps. 23 was written by David when he was a young shepherd serving his father, Jesse, while he was keeping watch over sheep near Bethlehem. He was most likely sixteen or seventeen years old. The other psalm that he wrote when but a young lad was Ps. 19. Those are two good psalms to memorize and meditate upon if you want to have the heart of the giant killer.
2. Psalm 23:1 The word most commonly used for “shepherd” is taken from the root word ra‘ah, which is also the Hebrew word for “best friend.” This translation includes both meanings.
3. Psalm 23:2 The Greek word for “love” is agape, which is a merging of two words and two concepts. Ago means “to lead like a shepherd,” and pao is a verb that means “to rest.” Love is our Shepherd leading us to the place of true rest in his heart.
4. Psalm 23:2 The Hebrew word menuhâ means “the waters of a resting place.” See Isa. 11:10.
5. Psalm 23:3 Or “He causes my life [or soul, Heb. nephesh] to return.” So often life drains out of us through our many activities, but David found that God restores our well-being by pursuing what pleases God and resting in him.
6. Psalm 23:3 Or “circular paths of righteousness.” It is a common trait for sheep on the hillsides of Israel to circle their way up higher. They eventually form a path that keeps leading them higher. This is what David is referring to here. Each step we take following our Shepherd will lead us higher, even though it may seem we are going in circles.
7. Psalm 23:4 Or “Your rod and your staff, they comfort me.”
8. Psalm 23:5 The word oil becomes a symbol of the Holy Spirit.

Start with the KJV, its straight from the greek, most authentic, or NKJV is ok, avoid most of the new versions like NIV, RSV, ESV, ASV NASB, their all corrupted. And speak 2 God also, ask him to show u the truth, u don't have 2 pray out loud, speak 2 him from the heart.

ah, the knowledge, so sweet on the tongue, yeh?
lol

Hi, Aileen, welcome to the forum!

I used to have a tape that had scripture songs on it. It’s a great way to learn scriptures. I love to watch Billy Graham’s old sermons.
