Bullets for Bible Memory

Bullets for Bible Memory

"The weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds" (2Corinthians 10:4).


Formatted by Tom Stewart

Katie Stewart assembled this list of verses (KJV) for our homeschooled kids-- who have long ago graduated from their little school at home. "From a child thou hast known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus" (2Timothy 3:15). Daily she would lead them in the game of reciting their memory verses. She depended upon rote to fasten the text of the Bible verse and its reference, but love of God and Mommy motivated the children to do their best. "For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little" (Isaiah 28:10). Speaking to my children today about their memory of these verses, most can recite many of the Texts still, but admit that they need the concordance search feature of their computerized Bibles to find many of the References. "Thy Word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against Thee" (Psalm 119:11). She recorded 130 Texts with their References on ten 5" x 8" index cards, which I list here-- with a great deal of pleasant memories-- for the edification of any who would like the use these pithy Scripture Bullets for themselves or their children. Katie called these short passages of Scripture their Bullets. "And take the Helmet of Salvation, and the Sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God" (Ephesians 6:17).

A Few Suggestions for Aiding in Memorizing These Verses

  • (1) Meditate: Dwell upon the meaning of the verse, initially, so you will have an idea of what you are memorizing, i.e., "thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein" (Joshua 1:8).

  • (2) Repeat: Repetition of the reference before and after the Text, e.g., "Isaiah 28:10... For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little... Isaiah 28:10," aids in locating the text in Scripture for your edification and for the benefit of others, as well.

  • (3) Apply: When all is said and done, the verses that have changed your life, i.e., "But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil" (Hebrews 5:14), or you have used to minister to others, i.e., "The liberal soul shall be made fat: and he that watereth shall be watered also himself" (Proverbs 11:25), will not be forgotten.
