As I have been working on a craft project for a large Fall themed piece of artwork to place on my mantel, I have struggled with the right Fall phrase to add to the area above the pumpkin design.
But I didn’t want to include the expected “Farmhouse Pumpkins” phrase or “I Love Pumpkins”.
I wanted it to be more unique and meaningful.
At home in the Smoky Mountains of Tennessee, Fall brings gorgeous foliage in amber, crimson, and golden yellow. By October the canvas of green is replaced with a masterpiece of vibrant colors that only God can paint.
Thinking of the rapidly approaching autumn season, I realized that what my artwork needed was a good Bible verse to embrace the season and remind me of God’s faithfulness.

If Fall is your favorite season, these verses are also for you.
Ask those around you and most of us will proclaim that the Fall season is their favorite time of the year. It is a time of change when the heat of summer moves away to be replaced by a changing season with crisp air, amazing colors, and new beginnings as kids head back to school.
There is just something about the changing of the seasons that encourages us to slow down and reflect on the past year while looking to the future.
When the passages of the Bible were written, they didn’t have football games, campfires, smores, and holiday decorations on their mind. What they focused on was the importance of the harvest season. The changing season and harvest time were the fulfillment of hard work, patience, and endurance.
To find Fall Bible verses to consider for my project, I started with searches on Google and Pinterest. Because the Fall season was such an important time of year, a time for harvesting and giving thanksgiving for another year, there are so many scriptures themed around the essence of autumn that both comfort and inspire.
In this post, I decided to share a few of them with you.
Galatians 6:9
“And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap if we do not give up.”
Genesis 8:22:
“As long as the earth endures, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night will never cease.”
Ecclesiastes 3:1
“To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under heaven.”
Hebrews 13:8
“Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.”
Psalm 107:1
“Oh give thanks to the Lord, for he is good, for his steadfast love endures forever!”
Isaiah 40:8
“The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God endures forever.”
Ephesians 5:20
“Giving thanks always and for everything to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.”
1 Thessalonians 5:18
“Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.”
Matthew 9:37-38
“Then he said to his disciples, ‘The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few; therefore pray earnestly to te Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.'”
Philippians 4:6
“Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.”
2 Corinthians 9:10
“He who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will supply and multiply your seed for sowing and increase the harvest of your righteousness.”
Isaiah 43:19
“Behold, I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth, do you not perceive it? I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.”
Ecclesiastes 3:11
He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the human heart, yet no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end.
These scriptures are a reflection of thanksgiving and praise. For meditating on as we enjoy the changing seasons in our own way. I hope you enjoy them.
Hugs,
