Inside of you there is greatness. That is the premises of this book. If you have never believed it before, after reading I Shall Rise Thee Up: Ancient Principles for Lasting Greatness by Michael Holmes, you will know that YOU there is greatness inside of you. Your life will never be the same after reading this powerful though provoking book filled with great stories, quotes, scripture references and so much more.
What Mr. Holmes has done is take practical Biblical principles and applied them directly the way we live today. He has taken principles that most of us seem to forget exists and reminds us that yes they do exist. Principles like the Law of Vision, the Law of persistence and the Law of the Extra Mile are a part of this book’s unique layout. I say unique because it really can used for a study group with the questions in the back of each chapter or even an in depth personal Bible study. However, Micheal made turned it into a practical read, making it easy on the eyes and brain, for those like me who get turned off by books that speak in theological terms and all the other hoopla.
I Shall Rise Thee Up is a great read for leaders at home, work and in ministry because the principles are universal and just like a book founded on the Word, they speak to every situation in life. Because it teaches about the value of service it speaks volumes on why our greatness is never meant for us. There is so much more to it.
Michael makes sure to remind the reader again and again that God desires to raise us up and he provides more than enough proof!
As a business owner I recommend this book to all business owners because it will teach you about why you should be in business and how you can live a life of principles that carries over into your business.
