Better Self Talk: Biblical Principles

Renewing the Mind

As believers, we are called to renew our minds with the truth of God’s Word. This includes the way we talk to ourselves. Instead of speaking negative and defeating thoughts, we can align our self-talk with the promises and truth found in the Bible.

Speaking Life

The Bible tells us that the power of life and death is in the tongue. This applies not only to how we speak to others, but also to how we speak to ourselves. Let’s choose to speak life-giving, uplifting words to ourselves, in line with what God says about us.

Identity in Christ

Our identity is found in Christ. Instead of allowing negative self-talk to define us, let’s remember that we are fearfully and wonderfully made in God’s image. We are loved, cherished, and valuable in His sight.
