SEEK FIRST | BIBLE 365
SEEK FIRST | 365 Days

365 Day Devotional Plan Seek First 365 is a one-year Bible reading plan aimed at helping you cultivate a daily practice of engaging with Scripture. This plan encourages you to read, meditate on God’s Word, pray, and journal regularly. Rather than hurrying through multiple chapters each day, Seek First 365 invites you to slow down and concentrate on a single passage or even a portion of a chapter. Over the past year, I, along with my husband and others who joined me, completed 365 Days a Year with Nicky and Pippa Gumbel. This year, I wanted to embark on a more intentional and personal journey by not only reading through Scripture but also taking the time to meditate on and memorize key verses.

As Christmas approaches, the sights, sounds, and smells of the season fill the air, reminding us of childhood wonder and the excitement of gifts beneath the tree. Yet as we grow older, we discover a deeper joy: Christmas is not about presents, but presence, the presence of Christ, “God with us.”

Amid the busyness, we’re invited to slow down, reflect, and make His presence the centerpiece of our celebration.

In this crazy, confusing, and chaotic world, how does one find REST for their soul? Daily, mounting stress can lead to burnout when you are constantly on the go. We cannot ignore our need for rest and hope it will go away.

Memorization Techniques & Methods

Today, let’s try something a bit different. I invite you to memorize a verse simply by reading it. Take some time to read the verse several times, start committing it to memory, and spend today reflecting on its meaning and significance.

For Example:

“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”Matthew 11:28-30

Break the scripture down into parts. Memorize the first section, and once you feel confident, move on to the second and then the third. Before you know it, you’ll have the entire verse memorized. I’ve used this technique with my Sunday school class, and it has proven to be very effective. We are encouraged to hide God’s Word in our hearts so that we can recite it when needed, as stated in Psalm 119:11.

 

Method 1

Repeating the Scripture

A method that works well for me is to repeat the verse seven times, associating the scripture with something relatable. I find it helpful to connect the verse to an image or a personal correlation that I can easily remember. For example, I might relate it to someone’s age or visualize something familiar, like a book on the table or the computer in my study room. This technique reinforces the memory by creating a mental link that makes the scripture more meaningful and easier to recall.

 

Method 2

Writing It Out

Another method that is just as helpful is writing out the scripture while I am trying to memorize it. I find that physically writing the words helps reinforce my memory. After writing it down, I make a point to revisit the scripture throughout my day. This practice not only aids in memorization but also deepens my understanding of the verse as I reflect on what I’ve written.

By applying these methods: repeating the scripture; writing it out; and using sticky notes, you can effectively memorize and internalize God’s Word. Each technique offers a unique way to engage with the verses, making it easier to recall them when needed and deepening your understanding of their significance in your life.
