SPRING FORTH NOW 2026

May 8

When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am? And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets. He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am? And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven. And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. Then charged he his disciples that they should tell no man that he was Jesus the Christ.

Matthew 16:13-20

Revival begins with revelation—knowing who Jesus is and knowing who you are because of Him. When Peter declared, “Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God,” Jesus responded by revealing purpose, authority, and power that was already waiting inside him. What is High and Lifted Up is not just heaven’s throne, but a life built on revelation strong enough to withstand every storm and every system designed to shake it. For a people who have always had to fight to define ourselves beyond what others called us, this is your reminder that identity revealed by God cannot be canceled by culture. Dream Big, because when you truly know who Christ is, you stop living beneath what He placed inside you. Decide To Become someone grounded in revelation and not public opinion, because purpose flows from what God says, not what people assume. Demonstrate Your Power by standing boldly, building intentionally, and using the keys God gave you to open doors for yourself and others, because real Revival will always lift lives High and Lifted Up.
