Negative thoughts can sometimes come in huge waves that threaten to swamp us, these have usually been health related for me. But in this I have never let go of the "Life Preserver" - the promises of God my Father in His Word.
Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful;
— Hebrews 10:23
The necessity of the Word of God as our daily sustenance is well presented in this post

Blessed (happy, to be envied) is the man who is patient under trial and stands up under temptation, for when he has stood the test and been approved, he will receive [the victor's] crown of life which God has promised to those who love Him.

The Bible is like a manual. So just like any other manual there is only so much you can learn from simply reading it. You gotta live it out.

In your hands
Father,
I am in your hands:
Do with me as you will.
No matter what you send,
Dear Lord,
Help me to love you still.
In good and bad
Please let me cling
To you, Lord, every day,
Then I will thank you, Lord,
Rejoice,
And never cease to pray.
