Memorizing Scripture May Be Easier Than You Think

I know a lot of Christians who have good intentions when it comes to memorizing Scripture but can’t seem to get into the disciplined routine it takes to do so. There is hope! One of the easiest ways to memorize Scripture is to strategically place Bible verses in a place where you will see it frequently.

There is Biblical precedence for this concept:

And these words which I command you today shall be in your heart. 7 You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up. 8 You shall bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes. 9 You shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates.”   – Deuteronomy 6.6-9, NKJV

You can use it as art on the wall…

My wife bought this framed blackboard and occasionally writes a new verse on it…

A little creativity can go a long way with this concept. Seeing these verses over and over daily will requires little effort on your part and helps download God’s truth into your mind and heart.

Can you think of other ways to keep Scripture before you so that it takes root in your heart and mind?
