SOAR LIKE AN EAGLE

“But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.”

Isaiah 40:29-31

 

Have you ever wondered what makes eagles different from other birds? They soar on the wind, rather than flap with their wings. Because of this they can fly where no other bird can fly.

 

This is the promise of God for you, that if you wait upon the Lord, and trust His will and His time and His way, you don’t need to fight the battle. If the Holy Ghost takes you to a place of battle, He will not leave you without victory, He will manifest His strength in your weakness and you will rise, you will soar above all the obstacles that come your way.

 

Are you tired? Are you frustrated? Are you faint in your faith?

Like David says in Psalm 61:2, when you put your trust in God, the mighty hand of God will take you on top of the rock that is higher than you in the place of safety, under the shadow of the Almighty God.  Therefore whatever your situation is, speak the Word of faith and that Word will carry beyond sense knowledge into the very presence of God.

 

As the wind lifts up the eagles high above the sky, in the same way, faith in Christ will lift you up above the realm of your own impossibilities and makes Christ’s possibilities available for you.

 

 

 

GOD FIRST

18 April 2024

“Let’s take a lesson from David who was ready to be humiliated in his own eyes, so that God could be honoured. Ask yourself: Where does honouring God appear in your list of priorities? Do you thank Him for all that He has done in your life, all the way long? While men look at the outside, God looks at the motives of the heart. Instead of worrying about the opinion of others concerning you, let the motive of your heart each day be to honour God before yourself.”

THE SACRIFICE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS

6 April 2024

“There is no time to do what is right. We must set our heart to obey the Word of God, all the time. God’s kind of lifestyle calls us to do what is right in the sight of God at all times, even though it is contrary to what we naturally want to do. Choosing to do what is right is a great test to the flesh.

What is the sacrifice of righteousness? Choosing to do God’s will rather than our own. When our flesh says hate, God says love. It takes sacrificial love to love your enemy and to pray for them. These are the weapons of righteousness. This is the sacrifice that Jesus looks at and rewards. Even though that might not be a grand, or outward sacrifice, it is what Jesus values.”

LIFE ANEW

1 April 2024

“When we talk of the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ, we are talking of the rare opportunity He has given to all believers to experience a new beginning – a situation in which every dead area of our lives receives life anew.

We are dead to our past and alive to our future. Sin’s power over us is broken and we now put on Christ’s new life: we live in Him, move in Him and have our being in Him. Herein lies the significance of resurrection.”
