The Complete Devotional With Josh NormanNäide

Casting Down Negative Thoughts

Visualize a warrior in battle, capturing enemy soldiers to prevent them from causing harm. This decisive action ensures the safety and victory of the warrior’s forces. In a similar way, we are called to take every thought captive and make it obedient to Christ. This means identifying and challenging negative, harmful, or false thoughts and replacing them with the truth of God’s Word. By doing so, we protect our minds from the influence of negativity and align our thoughts with Christ’s teachings.

Practical Application: Identify any negative or harmful thoughts you are struggling with. Consciously take them captive and replace them with truths from God's Word.
