I use index cards and write a scripture. As of right now every single door that opens in my house has a scripture card on it. Cabinets included. That way every time I open a door I can read whatever scripture is there. Sometimes it gives me such hope on the down days.

I write them on index cards that are attached to a spiral. I have three of them full of scripture setting infront of my computer. I flip the cards often to meditate on them. Memorizing comes easy this way.................I'm working on filling a spiral with favorite quotes from Bible Studies and books. They are only a $1.OO at Wally world............... The pages (cards) make a natural A-shape stand...And you can take them anywhere with you. This has been the best way for me to memorize scripture with out much effort.
Also, I quote a scripture in my email signature. So every time I go to send an email, I'm forced to read God's word. Of course it goes two ways. One day I was quoting a scripture, and a friend said, "I remember that one in the bottom of your e-mail letter."
God's word does NOT come back void..lol!

I find writing/copying/paraphrasing a portion to compare with the original text is a valuable tool. Also memorization of 'my' paraphrase or original text is a way to cement it in my mind.

Sometimes I've written them on index cards that I carry in my wallet; then I can take them out anytime, anywhere.

Try this, if you want to memorize a big chunk of Scripture, such as the Sermon on the Mount: Write down the verse number, then the first letter in each word, on an index card. This way, you can get up to 20 verses on a single card.
It's been years since I was into that, but it is nice to be able to recite a hymn of victory to myself when trying to fall asleep.
