150 Bible Verses all Christians Should Memorize

June 14, 2020

/

2 Comments

Scripture memorization is an essential discipline that all Christians ought to practice. Charles Spurgeon, the prince of preachers, once said, “Be walking Bibles.”

In my previous post, How to memorize Scriptures, I shared six amazing benefits of memorizing Scripture, a five-step method to memorize Bible verses effortlessly, and many other additional tips.  I am following it up with this list of 150 Bibles verses that all Christians should memorize. If you have never memorized Scriptures and don’ know where to begin, this is a perfect starting point!

I made printable sheets with all 150 verses and blank spaces if you have other Scriptures you want to add to the list. You can get them with several other resources in my digital library. You will get immediate access when you

*All Scriptures are taken from the English Standard Version.*

Romans 8:31-32: “What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare his own Son but gave him up for us all, how will he not also with him graciously give us all things?”

Romans 5:9-10: “Since, therefore, we have now been justified by his blood, much more shall we be saved by him from the wrath of God. 10 For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, now that we are reconciled, shall we be saved by his life.”

1 John 1:9: “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”
