Power of Scripture Boosting

Dr. Scripture says this about negative thoughts


Have you ever been offended, become frustrated or impatient with something or someone?  Have you ever been cut-off at an intersection while making a left hand turn and almost had an accident?  Have you ever surprisingly seen something, i.e. on TV or on the internet that you wished you hadn’t and then had a hard time getting it out of your mind?  Relief requires a special treatment of scripture-boosting.


Almost everyone has a favorite sacred verse.  Do you have a favorite scripture that you know by heart and can recall at any moment?  My scripture is taken from the Book of Mormon and repeating it when I have felt any of the above has been helpful to rid myself of many negative thoughts immediately.

1 Nephi 3:7 And it came to pass that I, Nephi, said unto my father:

“I will go and do the things which the Lord hath commanded, for I know that the Lord giveth no commandments unto the children of men, save he shall prepare a way for them that they may accomplish the thing which he commandeth them.”

I recommend that this scripture be repeated as needed.

Taking a few seconds to mentally repeat this scripture in your mind will give you the leverage needed to get past a negative thought that has gotten into you head.  The longer a negative thought is allowed to stay in the mind, however, the more difficult it becomes to get it out.  But, it is not impossible to get rid of it.


I started practicing this technique immediately after I heard a great teacher say that he needs to read the scriptures to get rid of a negative thought or experience.  “Aha!", I thought, "I can do that as well!”  I was surprised to learn that immediately after repeating the above scripture that a negative thought went away and didn’t come back for a long time.  Of course, if I thought about that negative experience again the thought did come back. Then, I had to repeat the scripture-boosting process which helped get rid of it.  Yes, I have learned that not only will the scriptures give us a better understanding of the purpose of life, but repeating and pondering them will enable us to feel the power and strength of God in our lives.
