Examine the Roots

Porn, voyeurism, extramarital affairs - We do what we do based on what we believe about ourselves. Let's start examining the roots.

 In this episode, we’re going beyond behaviors to examine roots. 

Understanding what you believe to be the truth about who you are deep down is key to making real change. And you are worthy. 

True change is more than a shift in behavior. Examining your deep-down beliefs about yourself determines how you’re growing, or not. Lord, open our hearts and show us what we are believing about ourselves. 

Give us the courage to examine our roots as our next step to “Becoming Whole.”

Highlights:

This is not about a bad habit. This is about an issue with your sense of identity.

If you’re doing something you feel ashamed about its because you are reinforcing the shame you already feel about yourself.

Our new identity isn’t meant to be a mask that we wear over our identity, that false identity comes off and we are reborn.

Homework:

H.A.L.T.S. These basic needs can become triggers unless we identify them and move in a healthy direction with them.

H - Hungry

A- Angry

L - Lonely

T - Tired

S - Stressed

The next time you feel one of these basic needs: Identify it and Challenge yourself to eat a good snack, reach out to a friend, take a 20-minute nap, take long, deep breaths, etc. THEN make a decision.

Questions for Reflection:

  • Where are you wrestling with habitual sin?
  • What are you believing about yourself that might contribute to that habit?
  • Where do you believe you are shameful in your identity? (Identify it and maybe seek Healing or Listening Prayer for it)
