Verse Bible Study Method

There are many different ways and methods to study the Bible – you can read the whole Bible, you can study the Bible book by book, chapter by chapter, verse by verse, thematically, topically, by character, biographically, by word, etc. In this blog post we will teach you how do a verse Bible study.

Here is how you do a Verse Bible Study:

1. Pray

Before you start your Bible study, you should pray to God and ask Him to guide and help you in your Bible study.

2. Choose a Bible verse

Choose a Bible passage first because it is important to study the Bible verse within its context. Then pick a verse from that passage you would like to study.

3. Write out the verse in your own words

Write a personal paraphrase of your chosen verse. Try to write in your own words, not from someone else’s words.

4. Write down questions, answers, and observations

Make a list of questions, answers, and observations you have on that verse.

5. Find cross references

Find some cross references for the verse and write down if the reference is for a specific word, phrase, or concept within that verse.

6. Write down your insights

Write down any insights you have found in your verse study.

7. Write a personal application

Write down any insights you have found in your verse study.

8. End with prayer

You should always end your Bible study with prayer thanking God for what He has revealed to you. Ask God for helping you apply the verses and findings to your own life and to share them with other people.

The Verse Bible Study Method is ideal for you if you want to study the meaning of a certain Bible verse and how you can apply it to your own life.

ABOUT OUR MINISTRY

We are a non-denominational Bible-believing Christian Ministry trained and equipped at the Christian Leaders Institute. Even though our Ministry is based on God's Word, the Bible, you need to approach our teachings like the Bereans and always study the Bible yourself to see if what we teach is aligned with what is written in the Bible.  

Now the Berean Jews were of more noble character than those in Thessalonica, for they received the message with great eagerness and examined the Scriptures every day to see if what Paul said was true. Acts 17:11 NIV  

We are only humans who 'stumble in many ways' (James 3:2) and we only 'know in part and we prophesy in part' (1 Corinthians 13:9).
