Places For The King James Bible

1) The Home Is A Place For The Bible

     The first place for a King James Bible is in the home. In the 1800s almost every home had a family bible. Fathers and mothers would take time every day to read the bible to their children. Parents should place a bible in every room of the house. All the kids need a bible in their room to read. Jesus spoke the Word of God and the devil had to flee. We all need the Word of God to be a light for direction to give us answers to solve all our problems. Psalm 119:105 says Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path. 

     The KJV Bible is an incredible book. Note that Psalm 117 is the shortest chapter in the bible; Psalm 118 is the middle chapter in the bible; Psalm 119 is the longest chapter in the bible about the bible. The very center verse of the KJV Bible is Psalm 118:8 that says It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in man. It's amazing that only in a King James bible will you discover that the two middle words of the bible at Psalm 118:8 are the Lord. Also there are 594 chapters before Psalm 118 and there are 594 chapters after Psalm 118. 594+594=1188-118:8 is the middle verse of the bible. 

     The KJV bible should be placed in all homes because the Word of God heals people with great joy. Psalm 107:20 promises He sent His Word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions. And notice what Jeremiah promised if we search the scriptures daily. Jeremiah 15:16 says Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart; for I am called by thy name, O Lord God of hosts. 

     Don't let the pleasures of this fading world take priority over reading and studying your bible. In the 1920s a little child let people know that their parents loved the world more than the bible. The father told his daughter honey would you go to the dining room and get that big old book we all love and know so well? The kid came running back with a Sears catalog. 

Remember The KJV Bible Is The Greatest Book Ever Written

Always Carry And Have A KJV Bible For Protection

We Overcome The Devil By The Blood Of Jesus And The Word

According to Revelation 12:11

     Don't be like the family that loved the world and the Sears catalog more than the bible; instead place the bible above any book in your home. Don't ever lay a magazine or any book over a bible. It's a disgrace to cover a bible with magazines or any letters. If I go into a house and see anything covering a bible, I'll remove it so the bible can be seen; The bible needs to be clearly seen everywhere. I always placed a bible on the desk where I worked. One time a lady told me aren't you afraid it will offend someone; I told that lady does it offend you; She replied No; Then I told her have a blessed day in the name of Jesus. And to this day after 34 years I've always had a bible on my desk at work. And hallelujah when that lady retired she got convicted and gave me bible literature. 

     Take time to read this true blessed story about how a mother's bible protected and saved her son's life. Before a young man went to fight in the war, his mother told him to always place her bible in his shirt pocket. When the young man was on the battlefield with bullets flying all around him, a bullet hit him. The young man thought he died; But when he realized that he was still alive, he discovered that a bullet hit his mother's bible in his shirt pocket and stopped at Psalm 91:7 that says A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee. The bible protected this young man and saved his life. 

     Remember parents to have a family bible in your home to daily read to your children. Proverbs 22:6 promises Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old he will not depart from it. Jesus said at John 6:63 The words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life. Take time to listen to this youtube link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K3sbxX6dAeU of Ricky Skaggs singing the Family Bible Song; I know it's country but it's highly anointed and will bless you. 

Blessed Words To The Family Bible Song

There's a family bible on the table; Each page is worn and hard to read

But the family bible on the table will ever be my key to memories

At the end of the day when work was over 

And when the evening meal was done

Dad would read to us from the family bible 

And we'd count our many blessings one by one

I can see us sitting round the table when from the family bible dad would read

I can hear my mother softly singing Rock of Ages, Rock of Ages cleft for me

Now this old world of ours is full of troubles

But this world would oh, so better be

If we'd find more bibles on the table

And mothers singing Rock of Ages, cleft for me

2) The Hand Is A Good Place For The Bible

     The next good place for the King James bible is in your hand. Instead of a cellphone in your hand, hold a bible in your hand. Somebody might say well what if I get a text during the church service and I don't have my cellphone. Tell them when you hear the preaching of the Word from a King James bible, you're getting a text that's better than any text in this world. 

     It's alright to read the bible from a cellphone; But it's better to read the bible from a printed text bible. You can't sing the song This blessed old book that I hold in my hand; It's true from beginning to end when you hold up a cellphone or laptop. The cellphone and laptop are not true from beginning to end and have many distractions and lies. But a printed KJV bible is true from beginning to end with only the truth. Right now hold up your printed KJV bible and click this youtube link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x5JMTE0cnwI while you sing the blessed song This Blessed Old Book. 

Blessed Words To The Blessed Old Book Song

It's a well of pure water when I'm thirsty and dry

Bread when I'm hungry and worn

When the battle is raging; It's my faithful sword

A shelter from life's troubled storm

It's a light to my pathway and a lamp to my feet

When the world gets so dark I can't see

And I've not made a change in one word that it says

But it sure made a change in me

This blessed old book that I hold in my hand

It's true from beginning to end

It's a solid foundation where I firmly stand

Sin kept me from it; Now it keeps me from sin

When I think what it cost just to hold in my hand

It reminds me that I owe a great debt

To all of the martyrs who'd go to the stake

And quote it with their dying breath

Now it's critics are many and believers are few

But one thing I've found to be true

If you find when you read it that there's something wrong

Then there's something wrong with you

     Another good place for your hand on a bible is in the courtroom. Since the bible is the truth, when people testify in court they place their hand on a bible and swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. Unfortunately today teachers are not allowed to have bibles in schools. I pray in Jesus name that laws in America can be changed to allow bibles in schools. If America allows bibles in courtrooms and jails, America needs to allow bibles in schools to bless children. If you allow a kid to have a bible in school, the kid won't have to first see a bible in jail. The bible will keep the kid out of jail. The bible and Jesus always make people better. I never met anyone that regretted getting saved with Jesus.

3) The Head Is A Better Place For The Bible

     Next we see that the head is a better place for the King James bible. Psalm 1 promises that if you meditate and memorize day and night the KJV bible, you will be like a tree planted by the rivers of water that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; your leaf shall not wither and whatsoever you do shall prosper. In other words if you daily memorize the KJV bible, Jesus will prosper you and fix all your problems. Philippians 2:5 tells us Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus.

4) The Heart Is The Best Place For The Bible

     Finally the heart is the best place for the bible. Psalm 119:11 tells us Thy Word have I hid in mine heart that I might not sin against thee. The bible will keep you from sin or sin will keep you from the bible. When Brother Bob hid Romans 12:19 in his heart, it saved him from sinning and going to jail. After a neighbor was blasting music every day until 3AM with the walls vibrating in my apartment, instead of getting angry and doing violence to this neighbor, Brother Bob said Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine, I will repay, saith the Lord. Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink; for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head. Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good. Hallelujah, Jesus stopped the loud music and now it is peaceful in Brother Bob's apartment and Brother Bob did not have to go to jail. 

     Look at the promises from God's Word when you hide the Word of God in your heart. Luke 8:15 promises But that on the good ground are they which in an honest and good heart, having heard the Word, keep it and bring forth fruit with patience. And notice that the Word of God will wash you clean and remove guilt. Ephesians 5:26 promises That He might sanctify and cleanse it (the church) with the washing of water by the Word. Finally don't just be a hearer of the Word; be a doer of the Word. Right now get saved and be a blessed doer of the Word; Repent, decide to stop sinning, confess that Jesus is God everywhere, and believe the gospel that Jesus died for you on the cross, was buried, and rose again. James 1:25 tells us But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed. 

     I truly have enjoyed writing this bible study today that I pray in Jesus name blesses people everywhere with great joy, peace, and strength. Feel free to email Brother Bob anytime at rz9tlm@gmail.com or write to Brother Bob Malkin, 2233 Pinetree Lane, Apt. N., Reynoldsburg, Ohio 43068. (614) 604-7133. Till we all meet again soon to lift up our Lord Jesus, everyone have a blessed day in Jesus name.
