One Scripture verse for each month of the year, chosen to match the seasons and holidays of 2027.

Updated November 6, 2026 · 6 min read

Choosing one verse for each month is a simple way to stay in God’s Word all year. You don’t need a long reading plan. You read one verse often, think about it, and let it shape the month.

We chose these verses for the free 2027 Bible verse calendar on this site. Each one fits something happening that month, such as a new year, Easter, graduation, back to school or Christmas. All verses come from the World English Bible, a modern translation in the public domain.

Ways to use a verse each month

• Memorize it. Read the verse every morning. By the end of the month most people can say it from memory, and by December you will know twelve verses.
• Hang it where you see it. A printed calendar on the fridge or by your desk puts the verse in front of you many times a day.
• Use it in a small group. Bible study and cell groups can start each monthly meeting by reading the verse together and sharing how it spoke to them.
• Teach it to kids. Short verses like 1 John 4:19 and Psalm 118:24 are easy for children to learn.
• Journal it. Write the verse at the top of a planner page and add one sentence a day about where you saw it in your life.
