The Dark Night of the Soul

There is something that happens during the Wilderness experience, that is almost indescribable to someone unless they are either in it, or have been through it. Many in the prophetic community have identified it as "The dark night of the soul". It is a time where you may feel as though God has left you, and Hell has come to have dinner and nachos with you. It can be a very dark, and scary time that you wonder if you will survive, or go down to the depths of the netherworld in flames. The length of time this period lasts is completely dependent on the amount you either surrender to, or fight the process.

The dark night of the soul, is a time where all of the sudden everything seems to be going every way but yours, you get stripped of everything, and cut down to only survival rations. Everyone seems to be misunderstanding you, or bringing up every evil thing you ever did, and making you look pretty bad. It is a time when your choices end, and God allows every negative thing about you, to be placed clearly in your view, whether you like it or not. It can be a time where you may despair of life, and death starts looking pretty good. It is a time when your soul, and all that is of "self" get puts to death, and it hurts.

During this time, you may feel like Jonah stuck in the big fish with nothing to do, except contemplate your mistakes and powerlessness over the situation. You may feel like Joseph, stuck deep inside the Kings dungeon, feeling trapped and mis-accused, saying "why God, why?". Or you may feel like David after his sin and failure with Bathsheba was exposed, and everyone knows about it, and is waiting for you with their rocks of judgment and condemnation to stone you dead. Like Job, you may have all kinds of people trying to tell you what you should do, or why you got yourself into this mess, but no matter what happens, there is One who knows what's happening. God.

He has only placed you in this position, to heal, purify, and prepare you, to be given much to help many. He's not doing this to be mean or cruel as satan has accused him of. He is doing this, so that when His time of super-blessing comes, that it doesn't lead to yours, or others ruin. He does this to purify your motives for serving Him, and others. He does this, so that you will have genuine compassion for people struggling with their faults, and that you will no longer pridefully judge them. He does this to show you, that it is by His grace, and His strength alone, that any good comes out of us, or our actions.

You will get through this dark, difficult time my friend, and the very areas you seem to be so denied in right now (finances, health, ministry, relationships...) will be the very areas you will be super-blessed in. You will be free of your fear of man, and need for approval. Your faith will rest on your faith alone, and not on anything that ever happens or doesn't happen in your life. There will be an end to this scary time, and believe it or not, you may actually miss this time of death to your soul. You have asked God for His best, and this is the road to it. Be of courage dear fellow Soldier, God will not abandon you.
