Creative Ways to Display Bible Verses for Home Decor

Want to remind yourself of God’s Word throughout the day? Bible verse decor for the home is a great way to stay encouraged and inspired!


A house is more than just cute wall decor or comfortable furnishings.  A house is a home when it helps you remember the past, embrace the present, and also encourages you toward the future.   

Decorating with Scripture reminds us daily of the hope we have in the Lord.  Here I share simple ways to decorate with Scripture by adding touches of God’s Word to your home while staying consistent with your style.

Why Decorate with Bible Verse Home Decor?

First, why Scripture?  Why not inspirational quotes or fun sayings?  I do have a couple of pieces of wall art with inspiring quotes but I love decor with Scripture because of the tremendous power of God’s Word.  One of my favorite verses is Isaiah 55:11:

According to this verse, God’s Word will never return void.  When God sends out His Word, whether it’s read, spoken, or shared on social media, it will ALWAYS accomplish something.  In other words, the Word of God will always accomplish the purpose for which He sends it.

Now, imagine the application in your home.  You are having a rough day and you walk by some wall art of Psalm 61:2 that says, “From the end of the earth I call to you when my heart is faint. Lead me to the rock that is higher than I“?  What a great reminder that we can call out to God in prayer whenever we are in need and He will answer us.

Surround yourself with God’s Word so you can remember the truth that God breaths into your life every single day.  There’s no better way to remind yourself of the peace that only God gives than by decorating your home with Scripture.

What are the Best Bible Verses for Home Decor?

2 Timothy 3:16 says, “All Scripture is God-breathed and useful for teaching, rebuking, directing and training in discipline.” So from that verse, we know that ALL Scripture is powerful and useful.  I like to post verses that encourage me in however I’m struggling at the time.

For example, in my Bible verse wall art collage, I have the following four verses because they relate to relevant trials I’m going through right now.  The nice thing is that these printables are easily interchangeable.

I have all of my free Bible verse prints printed ahead of time and I simply swap them out as needed.  Easy peasy!  I also show you some tips to make them look even more like DIY-painted signs here.

My free printables are interchangeable and there are dozens of verses for you to choose from so you can make your own wall art gallery to encourage you throughout the day.  You can download your favorite Bible verse HERE by entering your email address to sign up for the weekly email.

If you need a few ideas to get you started, here are some of my favorite verses for the home. You can put them on a bible verse sign, poster prints or they also make great bible verses for home entrances!

  1. “And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.” Colossians 3:17
  2. “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me. John 14:6
  3. “And He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together.” Colossians 1:17
  4. “We love because he first loved us.” 1 John 4:19
  5. “Come to me, all you who labor and are heavy laden and I will give you rest.” Matthew 11:28
  6. “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. Proverbs 3:5-6
  7. “Be still and know that I am God.” Psalm 46:10

12 of the Best Bible Verse Decor Ideas

 1. Bible Verses To Put On Walls

Scripture wall decor is one of my favorite ways to decorate with Bible verses. I like hanging wall art in areas I frequent the most and am more apt to look.  For example, I have Scripture wall art on the wall in front of my bathtub and also in the hall facing our garage entry area.

Here’s a farmhouse style sign that I “painted”.  Okay! I used a homemade stencil and a sharpie but it still counts.  It’s significant to me because it was my grandmother’s favorite verse.  Working on a cotton farm as a little girl, she knew the value of a hard’s day’s work and how it also required her to rest in God.

I also made this DIY scroll wall decor that has one of my favorite verses Psalm 46:10.

2.  Cute Bible Verses on Mugs

One of the first things you are likely to see in the morning is your coffee mug so why not have Scripture there too?

PRAYER IDEA FOR COFFEE MUGS : I have a friend with a cute idea to remember to pray for friends and family members.  Each coffee mug in her cabinet is used to remember each of her family members and good friends.  Whenever she arbitrarily pulls out a mug for her morning coffee, she prays for the person that has mentally “assigned” to that mug.  It always “happens” that the person whose mug she pulls out for the day is someone that she realizes later in the day really needed her prayers!




These mugs are super cute and help you to start your day with something(or Someone) you need even more than coffee…

3.  Bible Verses to Hang In Your Home (Scripture Decor Collages)

Just like my free Scripture printables above, there are several options for free printables online or you can make your own wall art collage like the one in our master bath.

What’s special about this is that my husband Jeremy picked two of his favorite verses and I picked two favorite verses of my own.  You can find out how I made these floating frames by clicking HERE.   One verse of his is perfect for a civil engineer!

4. Creative Christian Home Decor Ideas

A friend’s husband worked on a construction site for the renovation of a 100-year old hotel in town.  My friend turned one of the old doors from the hotel into a headboard and her husband was kind enough to snag one for us as well.

I decided to just paint it blue and added a Bible verse to it in matte vinyl from And Sew On.  I love how it turned out and so many people compliment it when they come in!  It’s truly a unique way to remember the power of prayer.

5. Scripture Art on Thank you Notes and Greeting Cards

You might be wondering what thank you notes have to do with decorating with Scripture but it’s fun to have Scripture come out of your home as well!

A few years ago I read the book A Simple Act of Gratitude, where author John Kralik wrote a thank you note for every single day of the year.

It is an amazing story of how the thank you notes brought him from a place of desperation to a place of gratitude and also a relationship with Christ. 

He was able to experience true gratitude for the first time and writes about the amazing experiences and stories that resulted from all 365 thank you notes.

Because this book made such an impression on me, I try to write thank-you notes to give thanks and I like to use notes that have a verse so others will recognize the true Source of my gratitude.

Here are a few cute thank you notes to choose from as well as cards

4. Felt Signs as Bible Verse Home Decor

There are so many cute ways to display Bible verses on pinterest.com and one of my favorites is these fun felt boards.  You have endless possibilities of what verse you’d like to display and I even get my daughter involved in changing out the letters. I found great deals on several felt boards here.

5.  Pillows and Blankets as Scripture Home Decor

Every once in a while I’ll see pillows or throws with a Bible verse that would be a cute addition to my home decor.  I don’t have one of my own yet but this pillow cover is very tempting to buy for our office loveseat and you can’t beat the price!

6.  Bible Verse Art on Journals

Pretty journals with verses on the cover are a fun way to remind yourself of God’s promises throughout the day.  I use journals like these for my quiet times but also for anything around the house like grocery lists, blog post outlines, to-do lists, you name it.  Here are some cute ones on Amazon:

7.  Subtle Daily Reminders of God’s Word

Sometimes artwork that doesn’t explicitly show a Bible verse is just as effective as one that does.  When I look at this blueprint I think about how my grandparents’ house in New Jersey was never built.  If it had been, I may have never been born.  I share more about that story and how to frame blueprint wall art HERE.

8. Prayer Board

Last, as much as I like to decorate my home with God’s Word, I also need reminders to pray for others.  My prayer board helps me to do just that! It’s a cute reminder of who I need to pray for and I easily change out the requests as they are answered.  See this easy way to make your own prayer board here.

BONUS IDEA: Not only do I like to fill my home with visual reminders of God’s Word, but I like to be audibly reminded of God’s truths also.  In my post, The Best Podcasts for Christian Women, I share about my 12 favorite Christian podcasts that daily help me to deepen my relationship with God.  Some are funny and lighthearted and others are more Bible-study based but they are a fun way to grow in your faith.

FAQs: Bible Verse Decor for the Home

Are Scripture stickers for walls out of style?

Wall decals were a popular way to put an inspirational Bible verse on your wall but they have waned in popularity in the past few years. However, one great use for these Scripture wall decals is to use on wood signs or pieces or glass picture frames.

I used Scripture stickers on the blue door and on my prayer request board because it’s such an easy way to make Scripture wall decor without having to hand paint the lettering.

Where Can You Buy Scripture Decor Art On A Budget?

My two favorite sources for my Scripture art are Etsy and Amazon. Of course, Amazon has everything from Bible verse shower curtains to wall clocks and free shipping with prime. However, Etsy (United States) is a powerful tool to find beautifully creative reminders of God’s word in your home.

You can find unique items like canvas prints, Bible verse posters, Christian wall decor and even church decor. Many sellers often free shipping, special promotions and have a satisfaction guarantee whether you are getting canvas prints, printable art downloads or other creative ways to display Bible verses.

    There are many cute ways to decorate scripture in home decor, even if you don’t have a special room for it. I have decorated scripture in my yard with posters and t-shirts, and these have both become places of art, with each poster becoming a small work of art, or a story in its own right. They are also great conversation pieces, when people stop by.

    A great way to start decorating scripture in home decor is to hang up framed pictures of scripture, of your loved ones, or family members who are special to you. It doesn’t have to be exactly the scriptures themselves, but they should be related to the person who is coming to visit. Hanging the pictures up in a beautiful frame will give them a homey feel, and something that visitors can actually touch and hold. frames of old comic strips are great for this purpose, along with old favorite books, and even nice framed artwork.

    Another one of the cute ways to decorate scripture in home decor is to hang framed artwork of paintings or photographs of the person to whom you have the scripture. The nice thing about these is that you can put anything you like into the picture, and it will look really good on your wall. Artwork can be really expensive, so this is a quick and cheap way to give the person a gift they will never forget. You can also frame other pieces of artwork from special occasions that shows the person in a different light. There are lots of special pictures of children, Christmas trees, baby boomers, and other cute pictures for this purpose. I have also decorated mine with vintage buttons, and fun little decorations such as rubber duckies, bottle openers, glitter stars, heart buttons, and the like.
