What's Weighing You Down?

Sep 4, 2026  •  Michael Rozell

The enemy wants you fighting battles you were never meant to carry.


Scripture tells us to “strip off every weight” that slows us down—but what happens when the weight isn’t something we can see?


In this Freedom Friday message, we look at the unseen spiritual battles that can keep people weighed down through curses, demonic oppression, sickness, infirmity, sin, and religious mindsets. We’ll examine what Scripture teaches about the authority of Jesus, the connection between deliverance and healing, and why simply knowing what Christ accomplished isn’t enough—we have to appropriate His victory by faith.


Jesus didn’t call us to spend our lives weighed down, frustrated, and shadowboxing. He came to set captives free.


In this message:

• Identifying the spiritual weights holding you back

• Understanding curses and generational consequences

• Christ’s redemption from the curse

• Casting out evil spirits and spiritual warfare

• The connection between deliverance and healing

• Appropriating the promises of God by faith

• Recognizing, repenting, renouncing, and resisting

• Walking in the freedom Jesus purchased for you


If something has been weighing you down, it’s time to deal with the weight and run the race God has set before you.
