Tips on how to memorize scripture
As you start to memorize a passage . . .
1. Write out the scripture including the reference in your own handwriting.
2. Read in your Bible the surrounding context of each passage you memorize.
3. Try to gain a clear understanding of what each passage actually means. (You may want to check other translations or paraphrases to get a better grasp of the meaning.)
4. Read the passage through several times thoughtfully, either aloud or in a whisper. This will help you grasp the passage as a whole. Each time you read it, you should say the topic, reference, passage, and then the reference again.
5. Discuss the passage with God in prayer, and continue to seek His help for success in Scripture memory.

While you are memorizing the passage . . .
6. Work on saying the passage aloud as much as possible.
7. Learn the reference first, then learn the first phrase of the passage. Repeat the reference and first phrase several times, and then continue adding more phrases after you can quote correctly what you have already learned.
8. Think about how the passage applies to you and your daily circumstances. The more meaningful a passage is to you, the easier it is to remember.

After you can quote correctly the topic, reference, passage, and reference again . . .
9. It is helpful to write the passage out from memory, then check on yourself to see if you have written it correctly. This deepens the impression in your mind.
10. Review the passage immediately after learning it, and repeat it frequently in the next few days. This is a crucial step for getting the passage firmly fixed in mind, because of how quickly we tend to forget something recently learned.
11. Review! Review! Review! Repetition is probably the best way to engrave the verses permanently on your memory. Review on your own, and also with someone else. Ask that other person to hold your cards while you recite the verses word-for-word.
