She Reads Truth | Soul Detox | Day 2

Today’s Scripture: 2 Corinthians 10:1-6
Today’s Reading:  To battle against your toxic thoughts, you must identify and reject them. As 2 Corinthians 10 tells us, the battle against our toxic thoughts is like none other. It is not a physical battle, but rather it is a spiritual battle that requires God’s help in fighting.
What are some of the causes of toxic thoughts in your life?
The second part of 10 v 5 says… we are taking every thought captive to the obedience of Christ
Every thought captive. Every thought.
Confession. I struggle with jealously, specifically with my husband. I doubt my worth in his eyes, I doubt his loyalty to me. I doubt. I’m a doubter. And it eats me away on the inside. And he has done nothing to make me question his love, affection, or loyalty. It’s just the enemy, trying to destroy marriage. Trying to destroy family. Trying to destroy holiness.
Jealousy…. Toxic.

Every thought captive.

Lord… these thoughts, these insecurities, I give them to you.
Forgive me.
Give me the wisdom and strength to take every thought captive.
Let me turn the energy that goes into these toxic thoughts towards prayers for my husband, and for our marriage. 
Let me find my security and worth in you, not in men, and not in my man.
