Dear One,
I see you. I see your heavy, weary heart. I see you. I too have known that cloak of depression; how it weighs down every part of you. How the hood slides over your eyes and affects your view so that everything seems dark, heavy, hopeless.
You ask yourself, what is the point? What is the point of carrying on? Nothing works for you; nothing seems good or right in your world.
You ask yourself, why are you even here? Surely if you were to jump into the deep abyss before you, then you would be rectifying the situation. If only you could just obliterate into oblivion. Wiped out, forever. How much better would things be if you removed the problem; if you did the world a favour and just disappeared.
Yes, I too know this voice. I too have heard these dark whispering from hell, so audible and definite that it is hard to distinguish that it is not speaking goodness and truth. It has worked its way into your subconscious so that you accept it as just the way things are.
You may have even reached the point where the next logical step is to take your own life. It whispers: ‘Go on. Just do everyone a favour. It’ll be quick and painless. Just do it.”
Oh sweet child, how far into the mouth of hell have you stumbled without even knowing. Thank God that you have found this blog and are reading it right now – Praise Jesus that this Truth is speaking to you in the darkness.
Right now, at this very point in time:
JUST HOLD ON!
HE IS COMING FOR YOU!
Yes, those words were meant for you right then, as you read them.
Jesus is coming for you. He is running towards you and He is about to sweep you up into His arms. Take a deep breath dear child. “Joy cometh in the morning.” (…)
Hold on to HOPE.
You are going to be okay.
You are going to get through this.
You are NOT going to listen to that dark voice anymore.
I declare in the Mighty Precious Name of Jesus Christ that you are His. You belong to Him. You are HIS and therefore you are worthy. You are HOLY. You are PRECIOUS.
I pray that as you read these words, and here these words that you know His LOVE. That Your heart is washed with His Pure and Holy Love. That every cell in your body turns to Him.
You can sob. You can shake as the tears fall thick and fat down your cheeks. You can cry and let it all out. You are safe. You are home. You are loved, You are seen. You are precious.
NO MORE WILL THE DARKNESS AFFECT YOU.
Pray with me:
“Lord Jesus, I wait for you. I wait on you. Holy Spirit come. I am sorry I lost my way. I am sorry I listened to the darkness and believed it. I renounce that now. I repent of turning from you and I now turn back to you, Lord Jesus. Forgive me. Save me. Redeem me. Thank you for being my saviour. Thank you for dying on the cross so you could save me. I love you Jesus. Thank you for loving me.
Holy Spirit Come! Come and wash me anew – fill my deepest, darkest spaces with your Holy Light and Your Peace that surpasses all understanding. Lead me forward, into the presence of King Jesus. I am yours and I belong to you. Keep me safe, Lord, all the days of my life.
Amen.”
