"Do Not Give Up!"

by Lonnie Mackley  Sept. 8^th, 2016

While praying earlier, I saw a vision of someone laying in their bed with tears streaming down the sides of their face. I could sense that this was not a one time occurrence and that there was a great battle going on inside this person where they were trying very hard to fight off despair, depression, and hopelessness. As the view of what I was seeing widened, I could see that Jesus was actually sitting on the side of the bed next to this person holding their hand, and there were actually tears running down His cheeks as well, as though He was experiencing this persons feelings as they felt them. Jesus contained all the hope in the world that this person needed, but it was just so dark for them at that moment that they could not see His light or sense His presence. Know this day that no matter how dark things may seem right now, that Jesus is your light and that there is always hope in Him. Jesus wants you to grab onto His hand right now and to know that He is there, and has been the whole time; He’s never left you for a second. You will make it through this, and like an airplane breaking through the storm clouds into the bright sunshine, so will you break through, and you will not enter this dark place again. So take hope today and know that you will make it! Do not give up!

^{LA 3:19} I remember my affliction and my wandering, the bitterness and the gall. ²⁰ I well remember them, and my soul is downcast within me. ²¹ Yet this I call to mind and therefore I have hope: ²² Because of the LORD's great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. ²³ They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.
