*YOU CAN'T KEEP HIM DOWN*


*By Pastor E O Gabriel  01 August 2025: Share*


SCRIPTURE: For a Righteous Man may fall seven times And rise again, But the Wicked shall fall by Calamity - *Proverbs 24:16*

During the Earthly Ministry of our Lord Jesus Christ, He expressly declared that He would be Crucified and He would rise up again the third day. 

◇WELCOME TO THE MONTH OF AUGUST THE 8TH MOUTH OF THE YEAR 2025, THE MONTH OF A NEW BEGINNING, THIS MONTH GOD WILL DO A NEW THING IN YOUR LIFE IN JESUS CHRIST MIGHTY NAME AMEN◇

Being conscious of this, the Priests and the Pharisees, when they Crucified and buried Him, covered His Sepulchre with a Stone to Prevent His rising. Soldiers were at the Sepulchre, all in an attempt to keep Him down.

On the Resurrection Morning, an Angel of the Lord visited, rolled away the Stone and sat upon it. The Light brought about by the Presence of the Angel made the Soldiers be as dead men.

With the stone rolled away and the Soldiers unconscious, all obstacles to Jesus' rising, were removed and He arose as He said.

*Therefore, you can't keep him down who doesn't want to stay down.*

The Bible says, a Just Man falls down seven times, and he rises up again.

*A Man who doesn't want to stay down, can fall down severally, but he will eventually rise up again.*

*Refusing to stay down, therefore involves the followings:*

*(1)* Set your Mind on things above - *Philippians 2:5; Deuteronomy 28:13*

*(2)* Keep declaring your Rising - *Matthew 12 :37; Numbers 14:28*

*(3)* Be not intimidated by what you see - *2 Corinthians 5:7; 2 Corinthians 4:18*

*(4)* Pray earnestly concerning your Rising - *Luke 18:1, James 5:16*

*(5)* Be Grateful whenever you find yourself Rising - *Psalms 92:1, 1 Thessalonians 5:18*

*No one and no Power is Strong enough to keep you down without your consent .*

*Prayer:*

Father, you are the Very Present Help in trouble, empower me to rise in spite of my Challenges in Jesus Christ Name.

And in the beginning, God created the earth. It means, in the beginning, Love created the earth. So, the earth was created by Love and it is meant to be operated by love.* •Unfortunately, we live in a generation where many people are bankrupt of love.  •It is important, therefore, to understand the major principles of love, that is, what love is all about.  •N...
