SONGS OF MY HEART BIBLE STUDY
Dear Friend,
These 10 Bible studies were born from original songs written from the heart. Each study connects a song with the timeless truth of Scripture, leading us into deeper worship, surrender, and faith in Jesus Christ.
This series is designed to help you:
Encounter Jesus through worship and the Word
Grow in daily surrender and readiness for His return
Strengthen your faith and share the Gospel with others
“Songs Of My Heart” is a brand-new Bible Study Series born directly from original songs written from the heart. Each study pairs a song with powerful truths from God’s Word, guiding you into deeper worship, surrender, and readiness for the return of Jesus.
Perfect for personal devotion or small group study
First Release: “Are You Ready?” (2026)
The first album in the series, “Are You Ready?” the first Single, releases June 6, 2026. The remaining songs to be released later around June 30 - July 4, 2026. It features 10 original songs paired with corresponding Bible studies, including:
Are You Ready? – Preparing for Christ’s Return
Have Your Way – Total Surrender
Rugged Cross – The Power and Beauty of the Cross
The Father’s Reply – God’s Faithful Presence in Pain
Chosen Child – Your New Identity in Christ
I Just Had to Let You Know (The King Is Coming Soon) – Persistent Prayer for the Wanderer
The Feet Of Jesus – Laying Everything Down
And more…
A special highlight is the song “My Selah Grace” — written by James when his daughter was only 6 years old. Now 19, this song beautifully reflects God’s sustaining grace through the years.
How to Use This Study:
Play the song (instrumental or with vocals) at the beginning and end of each session.
Set aside 30–60 minutes in a quiet place with your Bible open.
Take time to answer the reflection questions and respond in prayer.
Ideal for personal daily devotion or weekly small group study.
May the Lord use these songs and studies to draw you closer to Him — the One whose hand created the universe, whose blood was shed on the cross, and who is coming back soon. Let’s worship, surrender, and believe together.
James
ARE YOU READY? Jesus is coming soon

Songs Of My Heart Bible Study Series Bible Study:
“The Feet Of Jesus”
4-Week Course – Total Surrender
Introduction/ Description
Welcome to “The Feet Of Jesus” — a 4-week journey into the heart of total surrender.
In a world that constantly pulls us in every direction, Jesus still invites us to the same place where countless lives were changed in the Gospels: at His feet. This is the safest, most powerful, and most intimate place in the universe. It is here that fears are silenced, shame is lifted, pride is humbled, pain is healed, and we are made whole.
This study is built around the song “The Feet Of Jesus” from the Songs Of My Heart album. Each week we will worship, study Scripture (NKJV), reflect, and respond by laying everything down before the Lord — just as the song declares.
Core Message: True peace, freedom, and transformation come when we stop striving and lay down all our fears, shame, pride, pain, heart, soul, and mind at the feet of Jesus. That’s where we want to be found — now and when the King returns.
Why This Study Matters
• It connects directly to the themes running through the Songs Of My Heart series: surrender, the cross, revival (“Latter Rain”), and readiness for the coming King.
• It is designed for multi-generational families, worship teams, small groups, and personal devotion.
• You will grow in intimacy with Jesus while learning practical ways to live a surrendered life every day.
What to Expect Each Week
• Focused teaching from Scripture
• Song-centered worship and reflection
• Honest discussion and application questions
• Powerful prayer and response times (including physical postures of surrender)
• Daily devotionals to keep you at His feet between sessions
Memory Verse for the Course (NKJV) “Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.” (Matthew 11:28-29)
A Prayer to Begin the Journey Lord Jesus, We come to Your feet today as we start this study. Quiet our hearts, open our ears, and soften our spirits. We want to lay everything down and learn from You. Have Your way in us over these next four weeks. Draw us closer to You than ever before. In Your holy name we pray, Amen.

Songs of My Heart Bible Study Series Study: Rugged Cross The Power and Beauty of the Cross By James Goforth
Week 1: The Cross = Suffering and Shame Opening Prayer Lord Jesus, thank You for the old rugged cross. Thank You for willingly suffering and dying in our place. Help us to cherish the cross, understand its power, and live in light of what You did there. In Jesus’ name, Amen. Introduction (8–10 minutes) Play the song “Rugged Cross”. Read or sing the lyrics slowly and reverently, especially Verse 1, Chorus, and Bridge. Key Idea: The cross was ugly, shameful, and painful — yet it became the most beautiful thing in history because of what Jesus accomplished there.
Key Verse to Memorize “But God forbid that I should boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.” (Galatians 6:14 NKJV)
Core Teaching • Hebrews 12:2 – “looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.”
• Isaiah 53:3-5 – (Write this passage out yourself. Taking time to write Scripture helps us slow down and meditate on its meaning.)
