“ʏᴏᴜ ᴄᴀɴ’ᴛ ᴋᴇᴇᴘ ᴍʏ ᴄʜᴏꜱᴇɴ ᴏɴᴇꜱ ᴅᴏᴡɴ.”

I heard it so authoritative, so out of the blue. Huh? But what does that even mean Lord I feel injured/down/depressed. 🤕

Last night at a Worship gathering the Holy Spirit brought the rest of the message. “You can’t keep my chosen ones down because greater is He who is in them, then he who is of this world.” In that moment I connected the dots, and hope hit my spirit. In him – I’m in Christ. He is in Me. He is greater then the liar who comes to suffocate our minds/emotions in Despair.

I might fall down, it might look ugly, It may take me some time to realize I been hit, but because I trust in the one who is faithful it’s his love that allows me to dust off the dirt pick me back up and carry on. He is always faithful to do this and it always amazes me every single time. Like, he doesn’t even get tired of my doubt, or my weaknesses, he just comes crashing over me with his love and I’m wrecked. He always mends the scars.

“For the lovers of God may suffer adversity and stumble seven times, but they will continue to rise over and over again. But the unrighteous are brought down by just one calamity and will never be able to rise again.”
‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭24:16‬ ‭TPT‬‬

“Little children, you are from God and have overcome them, for he who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.”
‭‭1 John‬ ‭4:4‬ ‭ESV‬‬
