cave moment

I have been camped out with Elijah overnight -
he defeated J -
but instead of resting in his defeat
he saw, felt, heard and tasted fear
fear of the spirit he had already defeated
he ran
alone
fed and nourished by God in his running
but he still ran
alone
deep into a cave
to hide
from something he had already defeated

and I wonder if there are times
we construct a cave
out of fear of an enemy
or out of unbelief that we have already defeated that enemy

and we surround ourselves with that cave
so that all we see and hear
are the echoing walls of that cave

and all the while
God is saying
"what are you doing there"
