Enclose the thebibliography environment in a group and switch to \footnotesize within the group. EDIT: Or even better, switch to \footnotesize inside the thebibliography environment.
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
\section{foo}
Some text in \verb|\normalsize| \cite{test}.
\begin{thebibliography}{9}
\footnotesize
\bibitem{test} A bibliography item in \verb|\footnotesize|.
\end{thebibliography}
\end{document}

Welcome to TeX.SX!
The bibliography uses either
\chapter*or\section*, depending on the class you use. You can rewrite them as explained here. However, if you are using any package such asnatbiborbiblatex, you can explicitly define it. Say you are usingarticleand want to have it displayed as a subsection:Since the better approach depends on the packages you are actually using, as @Aradnix commented, it would be easier to get waht you need if you provide a MWE.
