As Deutronomy 6:9 says: “Write them on the doorframes of your houses and on your gates.”. God’s Word is our light and guidance. And what better what to keep His promises and rules than through wall designs? Whether you are an experienced artist or a simple follower of Christ who has willingness to create something for God’s glory, you might be asking yourself a question: How to make Bible verse wall art?
Let’s unpack this subject and step by step answer it.
Why Bible Verses on the Wall?
The Word of God shouldn’t be merely hidden in our hearts, but also proclaimed in our homes. A Bible verse can transform a simple living room in a space that screams “I love God and His Word”. We use home decor and art to express ourselves in our homes – why not show our faith through it too?
Here, in Heavenly Wall Designs, we celebrate this simple proclamation in various wall designs. Our leading desinger, Alex, makes sure to display God’s glory using Scripture, motives from the Bible, and his own creativity. How can you do the same?

How to Make Bible Verse Wall Art?
Step 1. Pray for Inspiration
Everything that we do should be covered with prayer. Especially creating art for and about Jesus. That’s why praying for God to inspire you is essential. Ask the Holy Spirit to guide your heart and mind as you choose the verse that will become the centre of your design. Reflect on what speaks to you and what message you would like to fill your home with.
If you are still hesitating, Psalms are always a good idea. They contain variety of powerful verses about any topic – from comfort to encouragement, from despair to overcoming fear. For a beautiful Psalm to highlight, visit our Psalms Wall Art collection.
Step 2. Choose the Material
When creating Bible verse wall, the medium you choose will shape the final piece. Here are a few ideas to get you started:
- Canvas – perfect for hand-painting, it looks classy and beautiful.
- Wood Panels – they are ideal for rustic and old-school paintings.
- Printable Paper – simple and budget-friendly option for those who prefer digital art.
- Chalkboard – flexible option allowing you to change your verses as often as you wish.

Step 3. Gather Your Tools
Make sure you start creating well-prepared. Of course, your supplies will highly depend on the method you chose from above, but you might need things like:
- paints or markers
- brushes
- printer and ink, in case you’ve decied to print and frame your digital design
Additionally you might use elegant frames, or gold foil for a luxurious touch.
Step 4. Select the Verse and Style
Your wall art should both reflect the message of the verse and your home’s style. For example, modern designs have clean tones, simple lines and minimalistic, highly pleasing image. Rustic style focuses on wood, hand-written fonts and more earthy hues. You can also experiment with mixing styles – elegant-glamorous can combine golden accents and black-and-white base.
After you select the style, time for the heart of your art – the Scripture, of course. You can write your selected verse in a hand-written form, print it using digital fonts, or even use stickers with letters. The possibilities are endless. It is a serious and God-devoted activity, just as much as fun experience.
Step 5. Add Decorative Elements
To make your Bible verse even more captrivating, add little details that will make it pop. You can add decorative elements or symbols for example floral accents that will be perfect for verses about growth and beauty (such as Songs of Songs, or Proverbs 31). Geometric shapes will be ideal for modern, symmetric designs. And nature motives, like trees, or animals, will fantastically symbolize God’s creation.

- living room – a central location for gatherings and family events
- bedroom – perfect place for comforting verses
- kitchen – uplifting verses can be placed there to help you start your day with the Bible
