THE RISE WITHIN

INSPIRATION

This piece represents the stir of the Holy Spirit within which says, “You were made for more.” The Rise Within represents the call and purpose in your life. A call that is to be nurtured. God placed it in you to fulfill your destiny.

The trunk, which is you, is opened to reveal the awakening. With prayer and praise you wait in hope of what the Lord will do through you. The lights rising show you are stepping out in faith. You have answered the call and surrendered your will to God’s best.

The atmosphere, once filled with darkness, now lights up in anticipation of this birth revealed. Those around can feel the awakening within and just upon the opening revelation, light is brought upon that place, like a consuming fire.

The answer to the call also lights up in you. It promises to take your desolate, dreary soul and make it joyful and free to be all that you were created to be.

"For this reason I remind you to fan into flame the gift of God,

which is in you through the laying on of my hands.

For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid,

but gives us power, love and self-discipline."

2 Timothy 1:6,7

John answered them all, “I baptize you with water. But one who is more powerful than I will come, the straps of whose sandals I am not worthy to untie. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire."

Luke 3:16

"But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood,

a holy nation, God’s special possession,

that you may declare the praises of him

who called you out of darkness

into his wonderful light."

1 Peter 2:9

“For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.”

Ephesians 2:10
