How To...
Memorize a Verse

  • Read the verse several times to get the meaning.
  • Start with the topic and reference, "Assurance of Salvation, John 5:24," and say it several times with the first phrase of the verse.
  • Then when you can say that by heart, add the next phrase, and say the topic and reference together with both phrases.
  • Continue phrase by phrase until you can say the entire verse from memory.
  • Then each time you review the verse, state the topic, the reference, the verse, and the reference again at the end.
  • By repeating the reference before and after the verse, it helps you remember the location of it in the Bible.

The key to successful Scripture memory is daily review. Review the verse every day until it becomes part of you. Carry cards with you so that they are handy for use during your spare time. Scripture memory can become a lifetime habit that will give you blessing and strength as you learn to apply the verses to your life.

Assurance of Answered Prayer

A spiritual babe needs to learn that he can speak directly to his Heavenly Father through Jesus Christ. He can confidently enter God's presence and talk to Him about everything that affects his life (Philippians 4:6). In memory verse John 16:24, Jesus gives us the Assurance of Answered Prayer, that He will answer our prayers.

  • John 20:31 means to look for the answer in the book of the Gospel of John, chapter 20, verse 31.
  • John 1:29, 36 means to look for the answer in the Gospel of John, chapter 1, verses 29 and 36.
  • John 20:1-9 means to look for the answer in the Gospel of John, chapter 20, verses 1 through 9.
