Sometimes our thoughts get away from us. A little fear turns into a full-blown worst-case scenario. A small insecurity spirals into self-doubt. Paul reminds us we don’t have to let those thoughts run unchecked. We can take them captive and make them obey Christ.
That means asking: is this true? Does this match what God says? It’s not about controlling every thought, but it is about not letting the wrong ones take over.
God has given us the authority to interrupt the cycle. It takes practice, but the more we catch ourselves and realign with his truth, the more natural it becomes to live in peace and purpose.
Pray: God, help me notice the thoughts that don’t match your truth. Teach me to bring each one to you and replace fear and doubt with your wisdom and love. Let my thoughts reflect your heart and lead me to freedom.
