Fly as an Eagle

An eagle soars above all birds. It soars on high where no other bird can go. It does not fly in packs nor depend on others to survive. It is a commanding bird. It does not eat dead flesh but fresh prey. It's vision is keen and can stay focus on a prey. They are master fishermen.

The eagle LOVES the storm as the storm helps it lift higher. All other birds hide while the eagle comes to play in the mist of the storm. The eagle must learn to Soar with the wind. If it flaps too much it will lose too much energy and die. When it comes to finding a mate, the female will test the male for its commitment. There is one mate for life. They nest in the wilderness away from the "world." And as the eagle gets old and weak, the eagle will go far and find a secure place. It will then painfully pluck all its feathers to grow new ones.

The Lord desires us to fly like eagles above all birds. We are not to depend on man but the Lord Himself as one would fly solo high in the sky. We do not feed on what is dead but what is Living. We feed on the Living God for He is the Bread of Life and the Living Water. Our faith should be firm and not wavering as the vision of an eagle. When storms of life come, instead of running, we should press into it knowing it will make us stronger. Will will endure the storm and give God Glory or will we run and hide like the other birds? We must soar on the wind (Holy Spirit) otherwise flapping out of our own effort will lead to death. We are to stay faithful and committed to only Jesus. We are to be loyal to Him. We are to stay a spiritual virgin. We must be strengthened and changed from our old flesh which requires dying to self. The eagle pucks out its old feathers. We must crucify our flesh and be renewed with our mind.

Isaiah 40:31 But those who wait for the Lord [who expect, look for, and hope in Him] shall change and renew their strength and power; they shall lift their wings and mount up [close to God] as eagles [mount up to the sun]; they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint or become tired.

Fire of God!!
