Protection Before Destruction

Protection Before Destruction

By Colleeno Chippy





There are moments in life when discomfort begins to rise for no obvious reason. Conversations feel heavier. Familiar spaces feel tighter. Your spirit feels restless even when nothing on the surface appears to be wrong. This is often mistaken for confusion, anxiety, or instability—but many times, it is none of those. It is divine awareness awakening within you.


Protection does not always feel gentle. Sometimes it feels like disruption. Sometimes it looks like unanswered messages, delayed plans, canceled opportunities, and unexpected emotional distance. But what if these moments are not rejection? What if they are redirection? What if what feels like loss is actually the earliest form of rescue?


Many people do not realize that God often moves us before danger becomes visible. He unsettles us before environments collapse. He loosens our grip before harm becomes permanent. He shifts us before pain becomes trauma. Protection does not wait for destruction to announce itself—it quietly reroutes you in advance.


You may feel called to leave certain spaces even when you cannot logically explain why. You may feel prompted to step away from certain relationships even when there has been no major conflict. You may feel restless in situations that once felt safe. These are not emotional phases. They are spiritual alarms. They are mercy signals. They are the gentle evacuation of your soul.


There are seasons where staying feels easier than moving, but easier is not always safer. Familiar is not always healthy. Comfort is not always covering. Growth will often require you to trust the nudge before the proof. Because by the time destruction becomes obvious, the opportunity to move quietly has already passed.


Sometimes God moves you because what is coming cannot be stopped—but you can be spared.


He removes you not because you failed, but because you are favored. He separates you not because you are wrong, but because your future requires different soil. He disturbs your peace because something ahead of you needs to be protected.


If your spirit has been feeling unsettled lately, do not ignore it. Do not silence it. Do not explain it away. Ask yourself what you are being preserved from. Ask yourself what you are being positioned for. Ask yourself what your next season needs that your current environment cannot provide.


Because protection does not always look like safety—it often looks like movement.


And sometimes the greatest blessing is being moved before you are broken.

The Illusion of Productivity: When Learning Becomes a Hiding Place

  The Illusion of Productivity: When Learning Becomes a Hiding Place By Colleeno Chippy In today’s world, productivity has become a badge of honor. We chase full schedules, long to-do lists, and endless multitasking as proof that we’re doing something meaningful. But here’s the truth — being busy doesn’t always mean being purposeful. Sometimes, productivity is just another form of procrastination. We study, we plan, we prepare — but deep down, we’re avoiding the real work that demands courage, vulnerability, or faith. When “Busy” Becomes a Distraction There’s a special kind of exhaustion that comes from doing everything except the one thing that would truly move your life forward. It feels safe to stay in constant motion. To learn more, research more, or organize more. Because if you’re “working on it,” then you don’t have to face the fear of actually doing it. But motion isn’t the same as progress. You can be moving every day and still standing in the same place spiritually...

The Difference Between Motion and Action: Why Progress Demands Movement

  The Difference Between Motion and Action: Why Progress Demands Movement By Colleeno Chippy There’s a subtle trap many of us fall into — one that feels productive but keeps us stuck. It’s the illusion of progress. We tell ourselves we’re “working on it,” “getting ready,” or “still planning.” But sometimes, what we call progress is really just motion — not action. Motion Feels Good, But It’s Not Always Growth Motion looks like researching, brainstorming, journaling, and talking about your goals. It’s reading books on healing without actually healing. It’s watching motivational videos without applying a single lesson. It feels like progress because you’re engaged — but it’s safe. There’s no risk in motion. Action, however, takes courage. Action means showing up, even when you don’t feel ready. It’s pressing “publish” on that post, applying for the job, writing the first page of your book, or booking that first client. Action transforms intention into impact. The Comfort of Mo...

The Weight of Self-Accountability

By Colleeno Chippy

  The Weight of Self-Accountability By Colleeno Chippy Introduction It’s easy to point fingers when things don’t go as planned—blaming time, circumstances, or even other people. But true growth and greatness demand something far deeper: self-accountability. Holding yourself responsible is heavy, yes, but it is also the kind of weight that builds strength. Discipline and accountability go hand in hand. Without them, greatness remains out of reach. Why Excuses Keep Us Stuck Excuses are comforting because they relieve us of responsibility. But every excuse is also a chain, keeping us locked in the same cycle. When you stop making excuses and start owning your actions, you take back your power. Accountability may sting at first, but it is the doorway to transformation. The Strength in Owning Your Choices Self-accountability means being honest about your part—your decisions, your habits, your patterns. It’s not about self-blame but self-ownership. When you recognize your role in ...
