What is a Life Verse?

A life verse is a verse or short passage from the Bible that has a special meaning to you, or that speaks to you in a personal way. You may find yourself turning to it often in your thoughts, and you might view it as a "guiding principle" as you make decisions, discern which path to take, and live out your faith.
But, there are 31,102 verses in the Bible — 23,145 in the Old Testament and 7,957 in the New Testament! How can anybody decide that just one of them is their life verse when we know that "all of Scripture is inspired by God and is profitable for teaching, for rebuking, for correcting, for training in righteousness" (2 Timothy 3:16-17)?

Pastor Gregg Matte offers these discovery questions to consider as you prayerfully consider which of those 31,102 verses may be your life verse.

  1. What verse of scripture is a deep encouragement to you?
  2. What verse of scripture encourages your passion for Christ?
  3. What verse of scripture do you want to see or have seen lived out in your life?
  4. What verse of scripture would you like quoted at your funeral or wear as a piece of jewelry?

Those questions are meant to get you thinking and to get the process started. Reflect on these questions, spend time reading God's Word, make notes as you go, and prayerfully ask God to point you to a verse or passage that will point you toward Him.
