“Rejoice not over me, O my enemy;
when I fall, I shall rise;
when I sit in darkness,
the Lord will be a light to me.” – Micah 7:8 (ESV)

Sometimes life knocks us down.
Sometimes the darkness feels real.
But even in those moments, we can stand on the truth of this verse.
Micah doesn't pretend things are easy — he speaks honestly.
He says “when I fall,” not “if.”
He says “when I sit in darkness,” not “in case.”
But here's the power: he declares his comeback.

You Will Rise Again
If you're facing difficulty right now — emotionally, spiritually, or in any part of life — remember this:
Your failure is not your finish.
Your darkness is not your destiny.
God hasn’t left you.
You will rise again.
Micah didn’t say “I’ll rise because I’m strong,” or “because people support me.”
He said, “The Lord will be a light to me.”
That’s our hope too.

Let This Be Your Confession
🔸 I may have fallen, but I will rise.
🔸 I may be in darkness, but the Lord is my light.
🔸 My story is not over — God is still working.
🔸 No matter how hard it gets, I will not give up.
