FLY LIKE AN EAGLE
God gave you wings so that you could fly like an eagle.
So why is it so many people spend their time grounded like gobbling turkeys, rather than soaring on the updrafts of God's love?
Three reasons.
First, they don't know who they are.
Second, they allowed the world to clip their wings.
Third, they don't wait expectantly; they don't have positive expectations.
Grounded eagles don't realize who they are. They don't know that they were meant to soar in the skies rather than trot upon the ground. They spend their days doing everything that turkeys do because they don't know any better. Everyone else is out their gobbling, and they figure that they are a gobbler too.
Grounded eagles had the ability to fly before the world clipped their wings. They live in a wing-clipping world in which a million voices tell them everything they cannot do, and before long, they believe they can't fly. The wing-clippers won, and God lost another soaring eagle.
Finally, grounded eagles don't wait expectantly. The Bible says, "They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength. They shall mount up with wings as eagles."
Grounded eagles don't understand that they must WAIT EXPECTANTLY if they want to fly like an eagle. They must expect that God is working behind the scenes to renew their strength. It won't be long before a miracle happens, and they will spread their wings and fly on the updrafts of God's love.
God wants to work a miracle in your life, and if you want to fly like an eagle, you must wait expectantly. Jesus said, "As you have believed, so it will be done unto you." So spread you wings with positive expectations, and it won't be long before you are soaring on the updrafts of God's love.
