Index Cards

One of the classic ways of learning and memorizing biblical text is by index cards and regular review. Simply write particular text on an index card (or Post-it note) and glance at it throughout the day. You may even post these cards throughout your home, on mirrors, doors, walls or the refrigerator. Once you have memorized a passage of scripture remove the index card and replace it with another.
Daily Reflection & Reciting
-
Daily reading and reciting of biblical text will help you memorize it slowly, but consistently. Try reading a passage of text in the morning and evening of each day, reflecting on what you have read, then reciting it repeatedly.
