Directions for a Verse Pack

A verse pack is a collection of cards with pieces of scripture written on them. Verse packs may be designed for various age groups or focused on a particular topic of study. The goal of these cards is to provide a valuable study aid that makes verse memorization easier. Over time, a verse pack will help you to memorize several pieces of scripture so you can recall these verses at a moment's notice. A workable system will help you to make the most of your verse packs and ensure regular, consistent study.

Instructions

    • 1

      Set up a small file in a shoe box, index card box or other container appropriate to the size of the cards in your verse pack. Use pieces of cardboard as dividers to separate the cards in your verse pack into sections.

    • 2

      Label the dividers to indicate the frequency of study for various cards. You should have new daily cards, repetitive daily cards, weekly cards and monthly cards.

    • 3

      Place all of the cards in the verse pack at the front of the box to begin with. As you proceed, these cards will gradually move to different locations in the box.

    • 4

      Select a verse card to study. For the first week of study, repeat this verse aloud at least ten times a day to help commit it to memory. Try to repeat the verse from memory, referring to the card only when absolutely necessary. Keep this verse behind the tab for new daily cards.

    • 5

      Move this verse to the tab for repetitive daily cards at the end of the week. Select another card to be your new daily verse. Repeat the new daily verse ten times each day and practice the repetitive daily verse at least once a day. Place a mark on the back of the repetitive daily verse each day that you practice it.

    • 6

      Continue this practice of selecting a new verse each week and practicing previous verses once a day. Once your card has accumulated 50 marks on the back, indicating that you have studied it once a day for 50 days, move it farther back in the box to the tab for weekly cards.

    • 7

      Study your weekly cards once a week. Study these all together on one day of the week, or rotate them so you study different weekly verses each day. For example, once you have seven weekly verses, you could assign one to each day of the week. If you have 14, you would study two weekly verses each day in addition to your new daily card and repetitive daily cards.

    • 8

      Move weekly cards back to monthly study after you have become familiar enough with them to repeat these verses from memory perfectly every time. If you find yourself struggling with monthly cards, move them forward again to weekly cards until you have improved.
