Week 1- Memorize John 3:16-17

On the first day, read John 3:16 ten times, and then repeat it from memory 10 times. The second day, read to refresh your memory on John 3:16 and say it aloud ten times. Then read John 3:16-17 ten times and repeat it from memory ten times. The rest of the week, review and repeat the passage at least ten times each day. If you want, you can continue to add verses 18-21 using the same method (one verse per day). See the article 10 Reasons to Memorize Big Chunks of the Bible above for more details and tips (especially at the end of the article).

Week 2- Review John 3:16-17 and memorize Proverbs 3:5-6

Continue to repeat John 3:16-17 to yourself ten times each day, and begin memorizing Proverbs 3:5-6 using the same pattern you used last week.

Week 3- Review the previous weeks passages and memorize Colossians 3:1-4

Use the same pattern as the last couple of weeks to memorize Colossians 3:1-4. Continue to recite the passages from the first two weeks from memory as much as you need to keep them hidden in your heart.

Week 4- Review the previous weeks passages and memorize John 15:5-8

Use the same pattern as the last couple of weeks to memorize John 15:5-8. Continue to recite the passages from the first two weeks from memory as much as you need to keep them hidden in your heart.

*Note: If you already have some of these passages memorized, or you want to memorize other or longer passages of scripture, you can use this method to memorize any passage of Scripture you want. You could even work on memorizing an entire chapter throughout the course of the whole month. Other passages that you might want to memorize include:

  • Psalm 23
  • Psalm 1
  • Colossians 1:15-20
  • Romans 8:31-39
  • James 1:2-4
  • Ephesians 2:1-9 (or just 7-9)
  • Philippians 2:1-18
