It is difficult to make a list of the best Bible verses – I mean they are all great – right?
But, I decided to compile a list of the most famous Bible verses instead.
This too is difficult, because different Christian circles use certain verses a lot more than others.
That said, these are some of the popular gems that have become famous by their helpfulness and/or repetition.
If you know of some other famous scriptures that you think should be included in this list please add them in the comments below…

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
– John 3:16
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part, but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears. When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me. Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known. And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.
– 1 Cor 13:4-13
The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he restores my soul. He guides me in paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. Surely goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.
– Psalm 23
You shall have no other gods before me. You shall not make for yourself an idol in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below. You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the fathers to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, but showing love to a thousand {generations} of those who love me and keep my commandments.
You shall not misuse the name of the LORD your God, for the LORD will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses his name.
Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy.
Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the LORD your God. On it you shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your manservant or maidservant, nor your animals, nor the alien within your gates. For in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, but he rested on the seventh day. Therefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy.
Honor your father and your mother, so that you may live long in the land the LORD your God is giving you.
You shall not murder.
You shall not commit adultery.
You shall not steal.
You shall not give false testimony against your neighbor.
You shall not covet your neighbor’s house. You shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, or his manservant or maidservant, his ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor.”
– Exodus 20:3-17
I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
– Philippians 4:13
But those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.
– Isaiah 40:31
But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.
– Matthew 6:33
Do not let this Book of the Law depart from your mouth; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful.
– Joshua 1:8
Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints.
– Ephesians 6:10-18
Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.
– Proverbs 3:5-6
Delight yourself in the LORD and he will give you the desires of your heart.
– Psalms 37:4
This is the day the LORD has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.
– Psalms 118:24
You will keep in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast, because he trusts in you.
– Isaiah 26:3
Jesus replied: ” ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’
– Matthew 22:37-39
Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.
– Deuteronomy 31:6
A merry heart does good like a medicine; but a broken spirit dries the bones.
– Proverbs 17:22
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.
– Galatians 5:22-23
What good will it be for a man if he gains the whole world, yet forfeits his soul? Or what can a man give in exchange for his soul?
– Matthew 16:26
No one can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Money.
– Matthew 6:24
Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
– John 14:6
The name of the LORD is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are safe.
– Proverbs 18:10
Jabez was more honorable than his brothers. His mother had named him Jabez, saying, “I gave birth to him in pain.” Jabez cried out to the God of Israel, “Oh, that you would bless me and enlarge my territory! Let your hand be with me, and keep me from harm so that I will be free from pain.” And God granted his request.
– 1 Chronicles 4:9-10
And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.
– Hebrews 11:6

You forgot one of my favorites!
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.

Jude 1:24 (KJV)
-Great list of Bible verses Bob.
It is not Jude 1: 24, It is Jude 24. There is only one chapter in Jude
well its the 1st and the last chapter so yea technically it is chapter 1
Well, actually, saying Jude 24 implies that Jude has 24 chapters, not verses. So, technically, Jude 1:24 is correct.
Ok how about, the 24th verse of Jude lol great verses everybody! 🙂
Well said Jarred! lol Keep the peace.
“Many are the plans in a man’s heart,
but it is the LORD’s purpose that prevails.”
-Proverbs 19:21
“To do what is right and just
is more acceptable to the LORD than sacrifice.”

We loved because he loved us first.
isaiah 41:10 Fear thou not for I am with thee. be not dismayed for I am thy god. I will strengthen thee;yea, I will help thee;yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. – this one has helped me for a very long time
Isaiah-51:11,phil-4:6-8,john-14:27,heb.-10:35-36,1pet.1:6-9.
(Pray for God’s will to be done, and not ours)
Lord, my heart is restless until it finds its rest in You. Thank You that
in You all things are made new!
All things are wearisome, more than one can say. The eye never has enough of seeing, nor the ear its fill of hearing (Ecclesiastes 1:8)
Solomon’s thesis here is, All things are restless. He has observed that there is an inherent restlessness in everything. In fact, it is so widespread that no one can possibly describe all the restlessness of life.
I hope these verses will be encouraging..
I love jeremiah- 29:11
For I know the plans and thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not evil, to give you an expected end.

Here are a few Thanksgiving Bible verses to assist you in giving thanks and praise at Thanksgiving time or anytime throughout the year.
Psalm 31:19 (NIV) How great is your goodness, which you have stored up for those who fear you, which you bestow in the sight of men on those who take refuge in you.
Whoever posts these verses should check them first. They are not all accurate and they need to be.
Not accurate according to what version of the bible ? The bible is the oldest print we have and there are many versions in every known language…. MEN have translated this book again and again over the years. At this point it is wise to merely pray to God to open our minds, heart, and eyes so that HE may give us the understanding we need.
This is why we should use the King James.

Pray for Enemies… If any of you are having trouble, pray. If you are happy, sing psalms. (James 5:13) Come to me, all who are tired from carrying heavy loads, and I will give you rest. (Matthew 11:28) That is why we are not discouraged. Though outwardly we are wearing out inwardly we are renewed day by day. (2 Corinthians 4:16)
King James Bible
1 Corinthians 10:13
13No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it.
Romans 8:38-39
38For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, 39neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Matthew 5:13-16
13″You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled by men.
14″You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. 15Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. 16In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.”
Theses are my favorite verses that I have memorized:]

The verses have encouraging and comforting words i request for daily verses
@ ed keith we say this at end of church every sunday. its jude 1:24
The Lord’s Prayer: Matthew 6:9-13
Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.
1 John 5:13-15 NIV
I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life. This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he will hear us. And if we know that he hears us – whatever we ask- we know that we have what we asked of him.
Romans 9:35-39
Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come. Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to seperate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Thank ypu for sharing one of my very favorites from all of scripture!
*Note: I believe it is from Romans 8 though 😉
@michael you are right! I love this scripture @rosa so much thank you sharing this gives me hope! God bless you!
John 3:16-18
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believeth in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send His Son into the world to comdemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through Him. Whoever believes in Him is not condemned, but whoever does not believeis condemned already, becausehe has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.
But if we confess our sins to him, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all wickedness.
1John 1:9
Ask me and I will tell you remarkable secrets you do not know about things to come.
Jeremiah 33:3
“I knew you before I formed you in your mother’s womb.
Before you were born I set you apart
and appointed you as my prophet to the nations.”
Jeremiah 1:5
They will fight you, but they will fail.
For I am with you, and I will take care of you.
I, the Lord, have spoken!”
Jeremiah 1:19
Lord, don’t terrorize me!
You alone are my hope in the day of disaster.
Jeremiah 17:17
These are some of my favourite verses in the order of importance. Most of the others have already been featured here. Though I’d usually read and relate well with the King James’ Version, I hope this version would minister to the many contemporary users of English Language. I hope you are blessed by them.
Good…God bless…
Very Good…..GOD Bless………..
My fav scripture of all time…im having it tattooed on soon 🙂
3:1 For everything 1 there is an appointed time, 2
and an appropriate time 3 for every activity 4 on earth: 5
3:2 A time to be born, 6 and a time to die; 7
a time to plant, and a time to uproot what was planted;
3:3 A time to kill, and a time to heal;
a time to break down, and a time to build up;
3:4 A time to weep, and a time to laugh;
a time to mourn, and a time to dance.
3:5 A time to throw away stones, and a time to gather stones;
a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
3:6 A time to search, and a time to give something up as lost; 8
a time to keep, and a time to throw away;
3:7 A time to rip, and a time to sew;
a time to keep silent, and a time to speak.
3:8 A time to love, and a time to hate;
a time for war, and a time for peace.
I think it’s hilarious when people say they love scripture and say they want it tattoed on them even though there is a very specific verse in Leviticus that says you shouldn’t tattoo any part of you skin or make cuts in your flesh for the dead. It’s just really enterntaining to me.
I remember a time when I was so thrilled to understand one or two bible verses. As time went on, I grew and learned more and more. I’ll always be learning. I have learned to that there is a log in my eye much greater than the speck in my brothers eys. Let’s be patient with our brothers. We all started somewhere and we all loved the scripture we learned even if it was one at a time…I didn’t learn about piercings until after I had my ears pierced. It made me very sad, but I know God loves me anyway. I pray Christ’s Peace adn His Love to reign in our lives.
i think it’s hilarious when people like you look down on people that aren’t perfect. Did you ever think that maybe they wanted to be reminded of it everyday? Or are you the only person in the world that can follow the Bible perfectly every seconed of your life? You must be the missing piece in the Trinity…..
Relax dude, it’s not the end of the world. Yet.
Have you ever read the whole chapter of Leviticus 19? There are lots of things we are told not to do, for example verse 27 says ““ ‘Do not cut the hair at the sides of your head or clip off the edges of your beard.” (Leviticus 19:27 NIV84) I’m pretty sure Christians have done that one before. You included. There are some things that you have to take as cultural, God was talking to Israel. And yes many of those things we are still suppose to follow. But you also have to look at the way it is being said. When it says ““ ‘Do not cut your bodies for the dead or put tattoo marks on yourselves. I am the Lord.” (Leviticus 19:28 NIV84) God was talking about the practice of mourning the dead. Not about getting a bible verse tattooed on yourself. I think a tatto of a bible verse could lead to great oppeetunities to witness to people.
I am a believer in our Saviour and I am proud and privileged to be one of his children. I do have ear and a nose piercing, if I were to get a tattoo I would like something religious, as God and my faith are the only things that won’t go out of fashion for me! 🙂 I think we need to realise that young people like to express themselves and sometimes aren’t aware of parts of the bible that includes no inking or bleeding; however I interpreted that as a sacrifice of other religions at ‘funerals’. I am not nearly as well read as you obvously are but I do believe and I don’t think anyone who gets a religious tattoo would ever try to be offending anyone! I hope that this doesn’t upset you but I think faith is such a strong thing; we need to celebrate peoples different ways of celebrating their faith in God! I hope some agree! I would like a quote regarding forgiving others who trespass against us, I know the basics but am looking for more of a forgiveness quote, something perhaps that is slightly inspirational!??! Sorry if Im asking too much! 🙂
Emma, what about the “faithful and just to forgive us” verse?
But if we confess our sins to him, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all wickedness.
1John 1:9
excellent point Stephanie, I like opening up to people interested and educating them when i can ,and my tatoos remind me of certain times and events in my life that might some day down the road help even just one person. God bless you
Hey Ryan, You have to realize the context. God was guiding the Israelites at the time, morally as well as literally. God set down rules that would of helped the Israelites stay pure and keep them away from other tribes ritual’s, some of these rules (like tattoos) don’t pertain to us anymore in the 21st century. For example at this time other tribes around the israelites would tattoo themselves all over, for their tribe or rituals or for mourning the dead, which would keep the focus off God and on to whatever idol they were worshiping. When reading the old testament you have to realize not everything that God told the Israelites at the time, while it was the right thing to do in the circumstances, applies to us today. (Stephanie makes great points below, My youth pastor has a tatoo of a bible verse on his wrist)
Let he who is without sin cast the first stone. ; )
it also says not to judge for u will be judged as u judge others….only GOD can judge and if I’m not mistaken that is in the old testament and we were told that we do not have to follow some of the things he once judged us for such as the animals that were forbiden to eat are no longer forbiden and etc…..
GOD IS ALWAYS GOOD GOD BLESS EVERY ONE
I’m not particularly religious, but I do have a favorite verse.
John 8:12 Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.
Therefore there is now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus.
Romans 8:1 (NASB)
Bob,
Great information. Very helpful to me about a potential beginning into the blogosphere! I have two sister-in-laws encouraging me to write and I love to do it. I too have a favorite verse(s). I personally believe it is when Jesus, himself, tolds us exactly who he was by quoting Isaiah 61, who himself was referencing the 25th Chapter of Leviticus and the Year of Jubilee! It is the first “sermon” Jesus spoke. I believe they are some of the most beautiful words ever spoken. ” The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because He hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor;He hath sent me to heal the broken hearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and the recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised. To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.” Luke 4:18,19 (KJV)
“be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus” (1 Thessalonians 5:16-18)
“so do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand” (Isaiah 41:10)
“when the righteous cry for help, the Lord hears, and rescues them from all their troubles” (Psalm 34:17)
i saw these three verses when i was going through hard times and learned these things
1. do not be so depressed
2. stay strong in faith
3. God is always here for me
“God dosent require us to succeed, he only requires that you try” -Mother Teresa
Isaiah 54:17
No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is of me, saith the Lord.
Romans 8:38-39
Iam convinced that nothing can ever separate us from Gods love,Our fears for today ,our worries of tommorrow and even the powers of hell cant keep Gods love away.
Whether we are high up in the sky or on yhe deepest ocean ,nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the loive of God that is reveal in christ jesus our lord.
” Yahweh is tenderness and pity, slow to anger, full of faithful love. ”
Psalms 145:8
I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do everything through him who gives me strength.
Philippians 4: 12-13
Amen, Paul.
“Don’t just pretend to love others. Really love them. Hate what is wrong. Hold tightly to what is good. Love each other with genuine affection, and take delight in honoring each other. Never be lazy, but work hard and serve the Lord enthusiastically. Rejoice in our confident hope. Be patient in trouble, and keep on praying. When God’s people are in need, be ready to help them. Always be eager to practice hospitality.”
Romans 12:9-13
Believe in God everytime…….
Nothing is impossible in Him
He can do the things you can’t do…..He is the most powerful in this world
…….for all you know………..i ignore the value of God in the past few years but now I truly believe that there is only one God in this worldwide world…………….He is always there in order to guide me all the time.He lightens my path since then. Ilove Him very much;;;;;;;;
hi can u share what u have been through before believing that there is God?. In what way that God communicate u?..
JESUS SAVES. YOU KNOW IT HE WILL GIVE YOU PEACE
Proverbs 16, vs 3
“Commit to the Lord all that you do , and your plans will be fulfilled.
God bless you all.

“Dont let anybody look down on you because you are young. But set an example for..”

In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.”
Psalm 91

bible verse left out is in 2chronicles 7:14.
am a ugandan pastor and am eager to hear from you,thanks.
I did indeed enjoy prayers and scriptures. Now is the time to pray and praise the Lord our God. He is after all not only our Savior but also, our Lord. We must try our very best to walk like Jesus!
Above all else, guard your heart,
for it is the wellspring of life.
Put away perversity from your mouth;
keep corrupt talk far from your lips.
Let your eyes look straight ahead,
fix your gaze directly before you.
Make level paths for your feet
and take only ways that are firm.
Do not swerve to the right or the left;
keep your foot from evil.
Proverbs 4:23-27
BEAUTIFUL!
MY FAVOURITE QUOTES:
2 Corinthians 5:7
…Walk by Faith not by Sight..
Proverbs 4:18-19
The path of the righteous is like the first gleam of dawn, shining ever brighter till the full light of day. But the way of the wicked is like deep darkness; they do not know what makes them stumble.
Isiah 40:26
Lift your eyes and look to the heavens: Who created all these? He who brings out the starry host one by one, and calls them each by name. Because of his great power and mighty strength, not one of them is missing.
Isiah 42:5
He who created the heavens and stretched them out who spread out the earth and all that comes out of it, who gives breath to its people, and life to those who walk on it.
Isaiah 55:10-11
As the rain and the snow come down from heaven, and do not return to it without watering the earth and making it bud and flourish, so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater,
so is my word that goes out from my mouth:
It will not return to me empty,
but will accomplish what I desire
and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.
Proverbs 3:19-20
By wisdom the Lord laid the earth’s foundations, by understanding he set the heavens in place; by his knowledge the deeps were divided and the clouds let drop the dew.
Proverbs 16:9
In his heart a man plans his course, but the Lord determines his steps.
NIV
I also find the following PROVERBS quite amusing & TRUE 🙂
17:12 Better to meet a bear robbed of her cubs than a fool in his folly.
11:22 Like a gold ring in a pig’s snout is a beautiful woman who shows no discretion.
All the best in growing your relationship with God.
I wish everyone ceased following worldly culture and followed the word of the Lord & the plan he has for each of us.
I find it so awesome how some people heard their calling from God and they followed it- quit life long careers, sold up their house, gave away their posessions and went into the great unknown WITH FAITH alone & came to live a better life than ever solely by trusting in God.
I hope we all will have enough courage/trust to do that when our time comes . . . That’s why I strive to Walk by Faith Not by Sight
(2 Corinthians 5:7)
I can’t say i’ve ever read the Bible, but I woke up this morning wanting to live my life with God. For the past month i’ve been saying this, and trying, but now i’m actually making an effort. I want to know more about our heavenly father and live day to day with him. I really enjoyed reading these pots, not all I might understand, but I know now if I keep searching for God and trying to understand and find answers, I know he’ll help me.
God Bless, and thank you all~
PRAISE THE LORD,
GOD WILL SURELY REWARD YOU FOR THIS WONDERFUL JOB. GOD BLESS U….WE SHALL DEFINITELY MEET IN HEAVEN….

Now i see my life florishing like a tree planted by the river side when i walk with the Lord. Have never been short of anything for i have placed my trust in him. Psalms 1:1-6 is one to meditate on.
God Bless you all

We are on the brink of ushering in a brand New Year 2011, the majority of us started 2010 with admirable intentions and we continue to swim upstream. It is the perfect time for reflection and positive change for the next ,I would like to get in first with a blessed great wish to you all, to you and your family have a blessed festive season and the best of the best in the new year, Best Regards and God BLESS.

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.
Awesome
Let he who is without sin ,cast the first stone.
This a beautiful verse that I pray I will CONTINUALLY recall when I’m tempted to judge someone else. VERY GOOD POST. Thank you for reminding us all.
How about the scripture:
“But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.”
Isaiah 53:5
Please help me find this verse….
We don’t choose who we love/fall in love with, but we choose…..
I can’t think of the rest, and I can’t think of where to find it in my bible. I heard it one time and fell in love with it!
E ko makou makua i loko o ka lani

@fazel..where can i find that scripture? “Let he who is without sin ,cast the first stone.”
Joh 8:7
“Without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.”
~ Hebrews 11:6 ~
my favorite verse…….
Cast your cares to the Lord and He will sustain you He will never let the righteous fall…
psalm 55:22

Does anyone know any good verses that is short and simple that kids between the ages of 12-15 years old can relate to or at least understand?
Thanks a lot for the help (:
Yeah how about this one.
“We understand perfectly what these things are saying. If we don’t we go get the NIV”.
-The Book of Things I Randomly Make Up.
Preteens and teens as a general rule understand scripture very easily. Now if you are talking about 3-6 year olds… that’s another story.
I, as a 16year old, understand every verse posted here. My little brother, age 13, understands every scripture here.
Give us a bit more credit if you don’t mind.
Beatiful work, thank you as well as all the posters as well, I dont think anyone mentioned the ones from the gospel dont remember which books but I try to remember them to the best of my ability, the ones about not worrying about what to eat or wear, look at the lilies they neither toil or spin, not even king solomon was arrayed like this in all his glory, and theres a mention about birds as well and the one verse I think its at the we end of luke where God seperates the goats from the sheep, he puts the sheep on his right side and tells them that they can enter the kingdom of heaven for they saw Him naked and clothed them, was in prison and in the hospital and visited Him, and the people questioned as to when that was and He responded “you surely did it to your brethren you surely did it for me as well”
@Lauren A great verse is psalm 118:9 for teenage girls. Its what i live by. It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to put one’s trust in princes
Pray for Jesus to be put back in schools, and holidays and everywhere He should me. They would be less violence in schools and in neighborhood. 2Chronicles 7:14 If my people, which are called by my ma,e. shall humble themselves, and pray and seek my face. amd turn from their wicked ways;then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and the President to seek God before making decisions. God mericful, full of grace and love for us all. LaRita
i am looking for a bible quote that talks about being able to forgive or overcome obstacles because of God, i have been looking for a good verse or quote to explain this but u have not been able to find one. Thank you for your help!!!
Kayla,
Try PSALMS 139. It is a bit long but I love it. It has helped me through so many hard times. I went through a nasty divorce and a constant battle over my child over the last 8 years. It is nice to know the lord walks with me always.
The last verses say
Look deep into my heart, Lord
and find out everything I am thinking
Don’t let me follow evil ways,
but lead me in your way
that time has proven true.
Hugs and many prayers for you!!
Hi Guys! I am looking for a short & simple bible verse which may be understand/relate to by the youth ages 15 years old & above. Thank you very much! God Bless. 😉
I always heard people say, “Not let a leaf fall off a tree, if it is not the will of the Lord”… Is that found in the bible?
The best one is the Lords prayer in Matthew 6:9-13
Proverbs 20:11 Even a child is known by his doings.
Mathew 5:14 You are the light of the world.
Psalm 145:9 The Lord is good to all.
Colossians 3:20 Children, obey your parents in all things.
James 1:17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above.
John 14:14 If ye shall ask anything in my name, I will do it.
Psalm 139:14 I am fearfully and wonderfully made.
John 1:3 All things were made by him.
Mathew 28:20 Lo I am with you always.
John 3:16 For God so love the world
Act 16:31 Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved.
Ephesians 4:32 Be kind to one another.
1John 3:23 Love one another.
Phil 4:19 My God shall supply all your need.
Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the Heavens and the earth.
love it and love you whoever came up with this website GOD bless you and your site.
2 Timothy 1:7 For GOD did not give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind..
MARK 11:24 Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours. And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive them, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins. Numbers 6:24-26 The LORD bless you and keep you;the LORD make his face shine on you and be gracious to you;
the LORD turn his face toward you and give you peace…
Everyday- I have to say a verse to myself- it is my weapon. When I face many adversities I remember that I am getting much closer to God. The devil will never mess with you unless he knows he already has you. So I rejoice in all my trials and tribulations and I always ask for uncommon favor…from where I have been in life- i refuse to give up trusting in the Lord- it is not and will never be an option. I am trading all my sorrows for the joy of the Lord!!
But those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.
Isaiah 40:31
These are ALL great 😀 and like you said there all great and there are so many that i like and cant choose but one came to mind 😀
“With God all things are possible”
-Matthew 19:26
eph. ? for by grace you have been save through faith….
this is a very interesting page have read and gone throuhgh major verses in this page ,have to say that this is a really good programme ,for it lets people impart and gain the bible knowledge they posses and extract what they lack,this is a good way to stayin touch with the teachings of the holy book of god .
god bless u and everyone at this,
These quotations are extremly inspiring,
i’m realizing how much i’ve wandered from Christ;
and through reading them; i KNOW i want to come back into his arms and serve him well.
Thank you
someone help me to find a verse in the bible it goes somehow like this flourished and forgive once your partner do wrong and never bring out the topic again.:
The bible does *not* instruct us to forget sins, but only to forgive them. (Forgive our tresspassers /debtors as we would like to be forgiven)
One preacher used to give this example:
If you walk into a dark alley and get mugged and badly beaten, you should forgive your attacker. However, you should not forget that he lurks in that particular alley, and if you ever enter that alley again and find him there, you should not forget what happened previously.
I also need to add, you should be willing and ready to forgive, but if the guilty person does not want forgiveness then you forgive them “in your heart”, and move on.
I find myself refreshed, replenished, reinvigorated, refilled when I read the incorruptible seed which is the precious Word of God. I have read many inspirational books written by different authors but I have found no treasure in them regarding the well-being of my life. Meditating deeply on the Word of God gives birth to having peace with Our Saviour, prosperity, success, comfort, insight, encouragement, name them. Its through the prestigious Word of God that everything came into being and its full of divine power. May my Lord Jesus Christ through His Spirit give me the deeper understanding, revelation of the scriptures in Jesus Mighty Name and let any power of darkness that may oppose the Word of God into my life be disgraced, fall down and die completely. Bravo for your good job and may the rewarding Father meet all your needs in abundance.
I would add the first couple of verses of John 1. “In the beginning was the word… “
what about psalm 144:1
“praise the lord my rock, who trains my hands for war, and my fingers for battle.”
love all these famous verses
Loving God is so much fun!!:)
I love bible verses!!!!!!!!
this gives me hope….Revelation 21:4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
This is just what i needed. What a blessing it was to find this. Thank you God.
But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.
Matthew 19:26
Philippians 4:6 (New International Version)
Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. (my FAVORITE verse!! Helped me thru some tough times. Amen)
Hebrews 11:1
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
God is good. God is simply good. Thank and praise the Lord for the wonderful words he has given us. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with us all, Amen.
I am looking for a good bible verse for my fathers funeral next week. My mother has asked me to say a few words. My fondest and earliest memory of him and I was when he would take me to sunday school.
I am looking for something simple and sort. My father was a veteran also- are there any passages for military persons?
I have read many of the postings- and can not stop the tears of joy..
🙂
Thanks for all the verses! =)
Here’s a poem I wrote when I was younger. It’s not much…
World
by:Nikki
Why does the world consume us all
While Lucifer is waiting for us to fall
Are we really blinded by life it’s self?
all the busyness and all the wealth?
My heart yearns for SOMETHING I cannot see
But another SOMETHING seems to keep me away from the mystery
Call to me oh little voice in my head
For I cannot heart Thee but the world instead
Lucifer has a mighty sword and commands many
But I know You have one also and can thwart any
Save me O Lord from the darkness within
As I yell for help to protect me from my sin.
I Thank-God for me finding this. One of my best scriptures is. And he said unto me. My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strenght is made perfect in weakness. 11Corinthians 12-9
@Lauren
I can tell you one thing that everyday someone gives their life to the Lord all the angels in heaven rejoice, the day you woke up and said I wanna follow you Lord the angels sounded their trumpets and all the heavens wept in Joy,
God does not require us to succeed and be perfect christians, all he asks for is that we try with Godly intent, and be of sober mind when we do try, often people get discouraged by their short coming and when they have fallen into sin, they believe that there is no way out, like they are in a box and they can’t get out, and my advise to everyone is that no matter how bad you think your sin was, God will forgive you, we humans will always have conditions for things! Like I’ll only take you back if, or it can only be forgiven if, God does not work that way, he does not have conditions, he loves us unconditionally, he welcomes us back with open arms, all we need to do is ask him for forgiveness, and he washes away our sins, an we are pure in the sight of God!
The Bible says, we need to forgive 7X70 times everyday for the same sin! I’m so Glad to say that our God really is an awesome God,
Thank you for allowing me to share with you all, and may you be blessed in your walks with God everyday, and may you be kept safe by Gods mighty works!
awesome bible verses! here is another bible verse that i love:
“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only son , that whoever may believe in him shall not perish but have eternal life.”
John 3:16
no MY will be done, but THY will be done.
What version are these Bible quotes from? I liked the Phillipians 3:14 one but it’s not in my Bible
No one’s mentioned my favorites yet…
Philippians 4:4– Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: rejoice!
Psalm 42: As the deer panteth o’er the water, so my soul longeth after thee. My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When can I go and meet with God? Day and night I weep, and my tears are my only sustenance, whilst men say to me all day long, “Where is your God?” My heart breaks when I remember the past, when I went with the multitudes to the house of God and led them as they walked along, singing and shouting praise to God. Why are you downcast, O my soul? Why so disturbed within me? Put your faith in God, for I will yet praise him, my Savior and my God. My soul is downcast within me; therefore I will remember you from the land of Jordan, the heights of Hermon—from Mount Mizar. Deep calls to deep in the roar of your waterfalls; all your waves and breakers have swept over me. By day the Lord directs his love, at night his song is with me— a prayer to the God of my life. I say to God my Rock, “Why have you forgotten me? Why must I go about mourning, oppressed by the enemy?” My bones suffer mortal agony as my foes keep asking me, “Where is your God?” Why are you downcast, O my soul? Why so disturbed within me? Put your faith in God, for I will yet praise him, my Savior and my God.
The first one is pretty straightforward… no matter what’s going on in our lives, we should REJOICE in His holy name!
The second one is my favorite, although I generally say one verse when asked.
Psalm 42:11– Why are you downcast, O my soul? Why so disturbed within me? Put your faith in God, for I will yet praise him, my Savior and my God.
This one (and the whole psalm) is saying something similar. Although at times it may seem like God isn’t there, and our enemies taunt us and hurt us and make us wonder if He’s truly there, all we need to do is remember our faith, and all will be well. Again: no matter what we live through, no matter what we’ve done: God is always with us. Simply put: never be sad, you have no reason to be: the Most Holy is looking out for us, protecting us. Sadness, fear, anger: all are meaningless when compared to God.
this is one of my favourite scripture,
Psalms 91:10-11, there shall no evil befall thee, NEITHER shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.
For he shall give thy angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways. Amen
The only way to be successful in life is Jesus,..when you have Him, everything flows in the right direction.
I posted on my FB profile 2010

So he said to me, “This is the word of the LORD to Zerubbabel: ‘Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit,’ says the LORD Almighty
I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
seest thou a man diligent in his business?he shall stand before kings;he shall not stand before mean men

I am looking for a verse about letting go of the past. Can anyone help me with this?
Prov 3:5 Trust in the Lord with your whole heart. He will help you forgive and forget all who has hurt your heart.
Thank you so much by giving this beautiful message…God Bless You.
Amen

Because of the Lord’s great love we are not destroyed, for His compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness. ~ Lamentations 3:22-23
He lifted me out of the miry clay; He set my feet upon a Rock and established my goings. He put a new song in my mouth, and sweet words of praise I will sing. Many will see and fear and put their trust in the LORD. ~ Psalm 40:2-3
Cast all your cares on Him because He cares for you. ~ 1 Peter 5:7
I will give you peace like a river. ~ Isaiah 66:12
Do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day already has enough trouble of its own. ~ Matthew 6:34

If we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us—whatever we ask—we know that we have what we asked of Him. ~ 1 John 5:14-15
We all are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory. ~ 2 Corinthians 3:18
Peter came to Jesus and asked, “Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother when he sins against me? Up to seven times?” Jesus answered, “I tell you, not seven times, but seventy times seven times. ~ Matthew 18:21-22
God did not give us a spirit of fear, but a spirit of power, love, self-control, and of a sound mind. ~ 2 Timothy 1:7
For everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven. ~ Ecclesiastes 3:1
He is able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us. ~ Ephesians 3:20
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, powers, the rulers of the darkness of this world, and against spiritual wickedness in high places. ~ Ephesians 6:12
The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. Against such things there is no law. ~ Galatians 5:22-23
Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. ~ Galatians 6:9

If anyone would come after Me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow Me. ~ Luke 9:23, Luke 14:27
Do not fear those who kill the body but are unable to kill the soul; but rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in Hell. ~ Matthew 10:28
Come to Me all of you who are weary and I will give you rest. ~ Matthew 11:28
To him who overcomes I will give a white stone with a new name written on it, known only to him who receives it. ~ Revelation 2:17
I urge you, brothers, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God—this is your spiritual act of worship. Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. ~ Romans 12:1-2
We know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God and who are called according to His purpose. ~ Romans 8:28
I hope this helps a little.
ACTS 2:38 “Then Peter said unto them, REPENT and be baptized every one of you in the name of JESUS CHRIST for the remission of your sins and you shall recieve the gift of the HOLY GHOST with evidences of speaking in tongues
Julie, please note that the Bible does not say in Acts 2:38 that speaking in tongues would be an evidence of having received the spirit. This is a very difficult topic. The holy spirit works in our lives in many ways. Galatians 5:22-23 tells us the fruit of the spirit in our lives is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness, self-control.
“…and you shall receive the gift of the holy spirit. And this promise is to you, and your children, and to all of are afar off, as many as our Lord God shall call.”
May God bless us all.
This was a wonderful idea that you executed masterfully. It will bless many, as it has me. Always, Keep the Faith
1 Corinthians 10:31
31Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God.
One of my favorites:
Psalm 27
Of David.
1 The LORD is my light and my salvation—
whom shall I fear?
The LORD is the stronghold of my life—
of whom shall I be afraid?
Romans 8 vs 28 , All things work out together, for the good for those who LOVE the LORD………..
Hi guys!
I’m starting to write a blog about my devotions. But, I’m having a difficulty finding a nice domain name for my blog site. Can anyone help me please? The examples I found are – Daily Bread, Talk Jesus, The Daily Prophet, etc.
How about – Blood washed? Under grace?
What else can you think of? Thank you very much and I will truly appreciate your help! Blessings my friends! 🙂
Romans 8:28
All things work together for good for those who love God.
Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.
thanks! its really nice 🙂
Awesome verses.
i have accepted God as a saver in my life,i love him so much.i read bible most of the time, now i need way to stay strong in jesus,and how to do right alwys.i hate being confused like this,sometime i get to a point where i don”t know whats wrong or right.i thank God for all these verses.
What a great site! i just stumbled apon it while researching verses on “God our rock, and trusting God”, this is for our kids holiday club that starts tomorrow. I have found a few but nothing seems quite right, can anyone recommend something that would fit in with the theme of secret agents, and barnicles on a rock?
a couple of my all time fav’s are;
Romans 8:28 And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.
Isaiah 54:17 ‘No weapon forged against you will prevail, and you will refute every tongue that accuses you. this is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and this is thier vindication from me’ declares the LORD.
Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, ‘Plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future”.
These verses have really helped me through some stuff….
God Bless you all x
” And if God is for us , Then who can be against us ”
Our father truly loves us and patiently and wholeheartedly wants to bless us…. 2 Chronicles 16:9
“For the eyes of the Lord search back and forth across the whole earth, looking for the people whose hearts are perfect toward him so that he can show his great power in helping them…”
This particular verse was truly a humbling experience when I read it…He calls those who love him with all their heart, soul and mind….his friend. What an honor, what a blessing!!! All the glory and praise to the highest!!
Exodus 33:17
“And the Lord replied to Moses, ‘Yes, I will do what you have asked, for you have certainly found favor with me, and you are my friend.”
Delight yourself in the Lord and he will give you the desires of your heart.
psalms37:4
May the God of Hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of his holy spirit.
Romans 15:13
I lost my brother and I am trying to find some verses to help me through it. Can you please help?
Hmmm, I wish I know more about the Bible to help you in your situation. But what I can say, however, is read Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John… at least twice… it’ll be like having Jesus hanging out with you. Better yet, if you download a YouVersion Bible in IOS, Android, or other devices, you can listen to them – this is how I received lots of comfort on one of my most trying moments.
Mark 10:27 And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible.
The name of the LORD is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are safe. Proverbs 18:10
Thank you for providing these verses. They were helpful to me.
This makes me choke back tears.
Isaiah 53: 3 He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.
4 Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.
5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
6 All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.
7 He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth.
8 He was taken from prison and from judgment: and who shall declare his generation? for he was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken.
9 And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death; because he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.
10 Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the LORD shall prosper in his hand.
11 He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities.
12 Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.
Proverbs 3:5
lean on, trust in, and be confident in the Lord with all your heart and mind and do not rely on your own insight or understanding.
John 1:…12… He came to that which was His own ….but they did not receive Him. To all those who received Him, He gave the power to become children of God.
John 1:11-13
Titus 1 not sure but maybe verse 15 ‘Unto the pure all things are pure’
hebrews 10:26 if we continue sinning after knowing the truth, there remains no sacrisfice for our sins
somewhere in the book of peter: we are a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a chosen people
in the book of james: resist the devil and he will flee
So many great verses. Here’s one I would like to share
For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes: Romans 1:16 NIV
By the way for the ones looking for verses Biblegateway.com has a free word search in over 100 translations.
wish to know more wisdom about your website.
The understanding i got by Jesus is deep and dynamic therefore i realised that God is more that what i thought, now on i know that God is unmeasurable
Hey I can’t quite figure out what this verse is can you help me out?
The lord is like a light if you cover it up there is nothing to be shown, but if you put it in the center of the room, every one can see it.
I’m getting lazy, so I’ll just copy and paste these:
Matthew 5:15 NIV
Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house.
Mark 4:21 NIV
He said to them, “Do you bring in a lamp to put it under a bowl or a bed? Instead, don’t you put it on its stand?
Romans 8:28 really should be on the list
Such a peace of mind I have recieved by reading all the beautiful verses. Thanks a ton.
I can do all things through he who strenthens me.
phillipians 14:3
I am looking for a verse to help me put all my troubles in God’s hands, can someone please help me?
I am going through a very rough part of my life right now. I was wondering if there were any verses that I can live up to and have something to look forward to living up to. To be able to have an inspiration in life.
This is my favorite, I hope it helps you. God bless you 🙂
“I knew you before I formed you in your mother’s womb.
Before you were born I set you apart
and appointed you as my prophet to the nations.”
Jeremiah 1:5
I am looking for a verse where Jesus says I think to his deciples…not sure… It’s something like this…. What you do for these children you also do for me…
I can’t find that verse… Thankyou.
It’s either this:
Mark 9:37
37 “Whoever welcomes one of these little children in my name welcomes me; and whoever welcomes me does not welcome me but the one who sent me.”
or
Matthew 25:40
40 “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.
^^^ This one is based on “The Sheep and the Goats.” It’s one that puts me to tears on a regular basis.
Thanks i love u too but Inform me either pig is good to be eaten i need a verse
Matthew 15:16-20
16 “Are you still so dull?” Jesus asked them. 17 “Don’t you see that whatever enters the mouth goes into the stomach and then out of the body? 18 But the things that come out of a person’s mouth come from the heart, and these defile them. 19 For out of the heart come evil thoughts—murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony, slander. 20 These are what defile a person; but eating with unwashed hands does not defile them.”
Mark 7:17-19
17 After he had left the crowd and entered the house, his disciples asked him about this parable. 18 “Are you so dull?” he asked. “Don’t you see that nothing that enters a person from the outside can defile them? 19 For it doesn’t go into their heart but into their stomach, and then out of the body.” (In saying this, Jesus declared all foods clean.)
To Quinna Bell and Amanda – you can read the Beatitudes. It’s Matthew 5:3-12.
And for the rest who are going through very hard times, you can read the entire Matthew,Mark,Luke, and John. Before, when I have had one of the worst times ever in my life, I would drift away from God and do things that he doesn’t want me to do. I would do that for a while and feel guilty afterwards, so I’d read M-M-L-J again and get back with God, and then do evil things again, and then get back with God, again. This cycle kept going for a long time until I finally had peace.
One of the best things I’ve done, also, is I downloaded the app called “Bible” in my iPhone; this app should be also available in Android and other operating systems. What it did was it allowed me to have a narrator read the Bible according to the version (I use the NIV narrator) I liked, and just listened to it; anywhere and whenever available.
I listened to the NIV narrator before I went to sleep (with headphones), etc., and I’ve read M-M-L-J many times prior and have had similar effect to what I will be describing… but this one allowed me to take in God’s words with minimal effort and allowed my emotions to flow while still under His words, and the effect was overwhelming and so comforting – I felt God was with me the whole time I was listening. And that was really the biggest thing when I was having very great sorrow… I felt so alone, and I was alone, literally, and the world seemed to come down on me, and I felt God wasn’t there… but by being able to listen to God’s words, and being able to “see” Jesus reveal himself through M-M-L-J, the narration forced God to be there with me in my most trying times… he became my comforter.
So I hope that advise will help you and comfort you also. I believe that a person cannot grow in Christ and in Spirit without first being given a very clear picture of who He is… and M-L-J-K is where he fully revealed himself(I believe/I’m not a Biblical scholar) and it’s a very good, if not it is the primary area, where a person can authenticate his truth.
As of now, I continue to try to grow, and try to remain in Him, and I hope someday I will have grown enough that I could be described as his good ambassador.
Thank you for reading, and I hope you will find peace also, as I did.
– Mark
Sorry… you can use that online Bible to search… or you can Google; but that one is very specific to the Bible. That also has an audio player, but I like the iPhone’s so much more.
Also, I’ve had a lot of favorite quotes. But this one is my latest one, and it’s a realization for me, and I hope that it serves as an encouragement to you also… that we need to remain, and keep try to keep growing in God, because according to this:
1 Peter
18 And,
“If it is hard for the righteous to be saved,
what will become of the ungodly and the sinner?”
I don’t know what level of growth do we have to have had in God to be called “righteous.” But this says it’s hard for the righteous to be saved… so if it’s hard, even for those who God calls as righteous… then we really, really have to try to not just remain, but grow, and become as much as like him, to ensure our place with Him when we leave this world.
Romans 8:31
“What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can stand against us?”
I was blessed by these verses — forgot my bible at home == visiting out of town at my in-laws and wanted to enjoy somes verse as I started my day and sipped on coffee…

“I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live, and everyone who lives and believes in me shall never die. Do you believe this?”
John makes the single most important message here.

Please show me a verse as to what to do when the grown son steals alot o money from his parents.
Psalms 137:9
Why did you omit thy shall not commit fornication?
I will call upon the Lord, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from mine enemies.
Psalm 18:3
This what gets me through the day.
Luke 23:34 is my favorite it truly shows the love and forgiveness of Jesus

II Kings 2:23-24
Psalms 137:9

These are really great verses from the Bible. It is great thing to know these versus because you’ll learn something from these verses that can help in your life. Thanks for sharing this post.
please help me to find the best bible verses…..

If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land. 2 Chronicles 7:14
So he said to me, “This is the word of the LORD to Zerubbabel: ‘Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit,’ says the LORD Almighty. Zech 4:6
Ye are of God, my little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you than he that is in the world. 1 John 4:4
Jeremiah 29:11
Great words from GOD♥
This is one of my favorite verse from bible: I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins : for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.(John 8:24)
I need help! I am getting married soon and my future husband’s parents are both decesased. I am looking for a bible verse to put with the “in memory” flowers that i am giving to his sister. Something that when she reads it she will immediately know that the flowers are in memory of their parents.
Thank you so much and God Bless
there is no sect or other person that is capable to save us. it is only Christ, the testimony of God’s love.
Luke 4:18 love this verse it is our church we have a day to do this in the community and we keep to it all year. Everyone should do this.
The Spirit of the Lord is on me,
because he has anointed me
to proclaim good news to the poor.
He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners
and recovery of sight for the blind,
to set the oppressed free,
to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor
i love you lord
Praise Lord brothers and sister in Christ. dear we got an opportunity of being called sons of God. so what ever we ask God to do for us, is ready to do it. let us be a good children to our father. God bless u all.
This is a great sight I’ve learned so many new verses! Thank you and I love the verses. Everyday before I go to work I come here and look at a new verse and I live by it all day long.
These are all great verses 🙂
LUKA 21:7-19
Teacher,” they asked, “when will these things happen? And what will be the sign that they are about to take place?”
8 He replied: “Watch out that you are not deceived. For many will come in my name, claiming, ‘I am he,’ and, ‘The time is near.’ Do not follow them. 9 When you hear of wars and uprisings, do not be frightened. These things must happen first, but the end will not come right away.”
10 Then he said to them: “Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. 11 There will be great earthquakes, famines and pestilences in various places, and fearful events and great signs from heaven.
12 “But before all this, they will seize you and persecute you. They will hand you over to synagogues and put you in prison, and you will be brought before kings and governors, and all on account of my name. 13 And so you will bear testimony to me. 14 But make up your mind not to worry beforehand how you will defend yourselves. 15 For I will give you words and wisdom that none of your adversaries will be able to resist or contradict. 16 You will be betrayed even by parents, brothers and sisters, relatives and friends, and they will put some of you to death. 17 Everyone will hate you because of me. 18 But not a hair of your head will perish. 19 Stand firm, and you will win life.
where is:I`am Alpha and Omega,the begining and the end,the first and the last?
from the book of the revelation
I am an overcomer, I overcome the world the flesh and the Devil, by the Blood of the Lamb and the word of my Testimony. Revelations 12:11
I can’t remember the exact verse, but it goes something like, “If God is for us, then who can stand against us?” I always found it a comforting one.
My favourite verses in the Bible as in James chapter 1 verse 22-25. Do what Gods teaching says; when you only listen and do nothing, you are fooling yourselves. Those who hear Gods teaching and do nothing are like people who look at themselves in a mirror. They see their faces and then go away and quickly forget what they look like. But the truly happy people are those who carefully study Gods perfect that makes people free, and they continue to study it. They do not forget what they heard, but they obey what Gods teaching says. Those who do this will be made happy.
You might have heard a slightly different version but as I am a kid I have taken this from a Youth Bible.
Im still a teenager. And i have been going through struggles lately. Like any other teenagers do. i was so mad from everything going wrong in my life i told my mom i was going to the computer lab to do some homework which i was just trying to get some fresh air. i cam in sat down thinking oh ill just get on facebook but instead i searched this website up and read all these scriptures and its just so amazing how bad your day can be but when you turn everything to god you know you’ll be in new and good hands. my mom made me move to houston and i was so angry because i have been in corpus christi my whole life. i have been going to my favorite church my whole life basicly and it showed me great things. i was thinking what am i gonna do without the church ? well i went to some churchs down here and realized wherever i go and whoever i loose god will be that one person beside me through everything . god i know ive said this alot but come into my heart again please…
if you repend your life would became mush easier almost like you were just born
Joshua 1:9
“Have I not commanded you to be strong and couragous? Do not be afraid, nor dismayed, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go”
I HAVE to add this one here because it speaks truth to the skeptic…and I was one of those people for a long time. It’s 2 Peter 1:16
For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of his majesty. 17 For he received from God the Father honor and glory, when there came such a voice to him from the excellent glory, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. 18And this voice which came from heaven we heard, when we were with him in the holy mount.
19We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto you do well that you take heed, as to a light that shines in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts:
This isn’t blind and watered down faith….WE SAAAAAAAW HIM RAISE THE DEAD!!!!…WE SAW HIM HEAL THE SICK!!!!!…WE HEARD THE VOICE FROM HEAVEN!!!….but more than that…we have a MORE SURE WORD! WHAT could possibly be more SURE than SEEING AND HEARING IT HAPPEN!!!!? Prophecy!!!! OH Praise God!!! I love this verse. It’s EXACTLY what a skeptic like me needed to hear. I always thought that faith was blind. It’s NOT! Faith is the substance of things hoped for…the EVIDENCE of things not seen. And this is awesome evidence from a man who said…YO!! Chuck out the religion…I’m here to tell you the sky is blue…the sun is shining…and JESUS IS LORD! FACT! God bless!
Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. John 15:13
Thanks am blessed by those verses but you left out a battle verse John 5:4 “That every thing born of Christ shall defeat the world”
One of my favorites is Deuteronomy 31:8.
“The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you ; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid ; do not be discouraged.
Another one is Romans 10:9.
“That if thou shall confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt belive in thine heart God hath raised him from the dead, thou shat be saved.”
thanks am blessed
I love how u toook one from at least every chapter thanks helped a lot GOD is amazing love him!
I really enjoy this site. May God bless and keep all my brothers in sisters in Christ!!!
Yours, Lord, is the greatness and the power
and the glory and the majesty and the splendor,
for everything in heaven and earth is yours.
Yours, Lord, is the kingdom;
you are exalted as head over all.
Wealth and honor come from you;
you are the ruler of all things.
In your hands are strength and power
to exalt and give strength to all.
Now, our God, we give you thanks,
and praise your glorious name.
1 Chronicles 29:11-13
I am looking for a bible verse for a foot tattoo, so not too big, that has both faith and love in it. My sister wants to get “faith, hope and love” and I want to get something similar. So far my choices are the fruits of the spirit (maybe a little long), “walk by faith”, “love never fails” or “…but the greatest of these is love” continuing hers because we want to get them done together. If anyone can help me out with one I have yet to think of that would be great!
This is just wonderful to find this website and realize that so many other people of faith feel exactly like I do.Im going to let everyone at my church know about this,its very special to share the word of God with all.What everyone needs to know is how awsome our Lord who gives uncoditional love can change your life.
My favorite bible scripture is Isaiah 54:17
What is this verse number ,I absolutely love this verse !
please tell me the verse i love it
i like to visit your site and helping me to make verses card to hand billing.
Thank you. God helps us always share together and lead us every side in our life.
Every day i share the verses with my bible reading.
Our loving God will help us more in this year. Amen
don’t forget one of my favorites
Isaiah 40:8
the grass withers and the flowers fall but the word of our lord last forever
Amen\
i <3 u god i always will
My favorite has always been John 16:33. “I have said these things to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart, I have overcome the world.” I always thought that was a beautiful and very powerful statement. What should I worry about in this world. Jesus has conquered it! There is no excuse for me to fear the world.
(1 Peter 2:24) He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; by his wounds you have been healed.
(Isaiah 53:5) But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds we are healed.

Jesus Prayer
John 17 : 20 “I am praying not only for these disciples but also for all who will ever believe in me through their message. 21 I pray that they will all be one, just as you and I are one—as you are in me, Father, and I am in you. And may they be in us so that the world will believe you sent me. 22 “I have given them the glory you gave me, so they may be one as we are one. 23 I am in them and you are in me.
May they experience such perfect unity that the world will know that you sent me and that you love them as much as you love me.
24 Father, I want these whom you have given me to be with me where I am. Then they can see all the glory you gave me because you loved me even before the world began!
My favortie!
romans 12:17
For do not repay evil for evil. Be careful do what is right in the eyes of everyone
” I will be careful to live a blameless life- I will lead a life of INTEGRITY in my own home.
– Psalm 101:2
Jesus Wept.
I do not even remember the scripture number but, that is one of my favorite because I know that he is truly a man – the son of God, with no shame to weep over the loss of a loved one. I think it is in John.

2 Corinthians 12: 9-10
And he has said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness.” Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me. Therefore I am well content with weakness, with insults, with distresses, with persecutions, with difficulties, for Christ’s sake; for when I am weak then I am strong.
A couple of my favourites, from Handel’s Messiah:
Rev. 19:6
Hallelujah! For the Lord our God, the Almighty, reigns.
and Rev. 11:15
The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ , and he will reign for ever and ever.”
and from Rev. 19:16 (also 1 Tim. 6:15)
King of kings and Lord of lords
Psalm 16:8 I have set the Lord always before me. Because He is at my right hand, I will Not be shaken! ( some versions say ‘moved’ instead of shaken). This is one of my life verses & it works!
When I refocus on the Lord in the middle of chaos or trauma, He gives me Shalom & guides me! Amazing how God’s Word is alive & active & sharp enough to cut through any attack of the enemy! Thanks for sharing & for the opportunity to share in return. Blessings to all!
