Our Internal Dialogue

I never realized how damaging my self-talk had become until I participated in the Bible study, Armor of God by Priscilla Shirer. For years I was extremely unhappy in my profession, and although I had many plans to leave my job, I could never pull it off.

While working through the study, I recognized my internal dialogue of negative self-talk had been holding me back from my full potential.

The Lies We Believe

We would never talk to others the way we speak to ourselves.

Yet, think for a moment of how you talk to yourself throughout the day. Do any of these sound familiar?

I’m so stupid.
That was dumb of me.
Why did I wear this?
My hair’s too short.
I look fat in this.
That was a dumb thing to say.
I’m not good enough to do this.
I can never do what she does.

woman feeling down — All of our negative self-talk wears us down. Yet, none of it is true.

What Is True?

Our list of what we think is wrong with ourselves goes on and on. And except for exchanging a word here or there, most of our internal tapes are the same. But the truth is – none of it is true.

How do we know that? Ask yourself would you tell your child any of these things about themselves?

Of course not.

So why are we not listening to our parent, Our Father? Instead, we think we know best, and we listen to our internal voice which is tainted by the enemy. Our enemy wants to bring us down, distract us from God, and prevent us from living our best lives.

Why Use Affirmations

Because they work.

You replace the negative self-talk in your head with positive self-talk. But instead of switching the negative self-talk with platitudes that don’t necessarily help you in the long run, we need to replace them with the real truth of who you are.

And that truth is in God’s word. These 24 Christian Affirmations are your identity in Christ.

Live your true calling from God
