No matter where you are or what you are doing, you have to deal with gravity every moment of your life. Gravity has a job and that is to hold you down. Just look at your body. As you age, your body becomes a graphic display of the laws of gravity. You look in the mirror and everything is a few inches lower than it used to be. Your face, your stomach, it's all heading south of the border and you can't even see the border any more. Messiah is the opposite. Messiah rose! And the power of Messiah and of salvation is the power to rise. In Messiah, you have the power to rise and to go against the way the flesh pulls. In Messiah, you no longer have to be oppressed, suppressed or depressed. So stop being dragged down, pulled down, pushed down, knocked down and kept down. Messiah rose and you can do the same. The law of gravity and of the flesh cannot stand against the power of Messiah. Nor can anything or anyone hold you down if you will live in the power of His rising.
From Message #858 - Rise Up
Declare victory over your problems and temptations. You are free to rise in the power and love of Messiah.
