Diagramming Scripture

Many of you started Bible Reading plans for the new year. As each day passes, you may need extra support to keep you interested in your goal.

Diagramming Scripture will compliment your plan and keep your mind engaged on the chapters or verses you’re reading each day.

It can be interactive with pens, and a notebook. Or if you don’t want to write, use the list below as a mental guide as you read. When you find some of the listed items, you will be learning and you will want to keep reading!

I hope the list will serve you by keeping you enthusiastically engaged with scripture. Don’t give up. You will develop your spiritual tenacity. Christians are to grow in Christ likeness every day(2 Peter 3:18, Luke 9:23). The Author of the Bible loves you. And as you love His Word, you will love Him more.

Abundant peace have those loving Thy law, And they have no stumbling-block.

Psalm 119:165

DIAGRAMMING SCRIPTURE: Look for the following:

• Names of God
• Action words
• Words of intention
• A command for us
• Characteristics about God or Jesus or the Holy Spirit
• Characteristics about us in our rebellion
• Characteristics about us after we are redeemed
• Characteristics of God’s Word
• Consequences of rebellion
• Results and rewards of obedience
• A promise from God
• The words IF, THEN, THEREFORE, ALWAYS, BUT
• Things God will do and things we are to do
• Place your name where there are personal pronouns.

Scripture is alive(Hebrews 3:12). Diagramming Scripture is a way to interact with it so that you see the truth in the passage. Once you are finished, remember to use the verses the Holy Spirit brought to your attention and make those as prayers back to God. And thank Him for His wonderful Word.

➡️If you’ve started a Bible reading plan for 2024, please list your plan in the comments so others can have a resource list.
