*BORNE ON EAGLES' WINGS*
_As an eagle stirreth up her nest, fluttereth over her young, spreadeth abroad her wings, taketh them, beareth them on her wings_ *(Deuteronomy 32:11)*
This is a most beautiful description of God's dealings with His people. The Lord likens Himself to an eagle caring for its young. The eagle doesn't merely watch from a distance; it actively trains, guides, protects, and carries its young until they become strong enough to soar.
The eagle stirs up its nest, fluttering over its young and spreading its wings beneath them. This illustrates how God works in our lives. He doesn't leave us to struggle alone or figure things out by ourselves. He guides us through His Word, strengthens us by His Spirit, and leads us in the path of His perfect will. Even when circumstances seem challenging, He's at work, preparing you for greater heights and greater victories.
When the children of Israel came out of Egypt, the Lord reminded them, *"Ye have seen what I did unto the Egyptians, and how I bare you on eagles' wings..."* (Exodus 19:4). He wanted them to recognise that their preservation, progress and success were not the result of human wisdom or strength. He carried them. He sustained them. He was their way in the wilderness.
The same is true in your life today. You're not to depend solely on your own ability, intelligence or resources. The Lord is your strength. Heβs your wisdom. Heβs your sufficiency. He upholds you, directs your steps, and causes you to triumph. He knows every challenge you'll ever face, and He's already made you a victor.
Therefore, refuse to be overwhelmed by the pressures or uncertainties of life. Heβs your ever-present help in times of need; He bears you up. Heβs able to keep you, strengthen you, and bring you into the fulfilment of His purpose for your life. Maintain this consciousness every day.
The Lord is actively involved in your success. He's guiding you by His Spirit to rise above limitations, obstacles, and adversities. Like the eagle that soars high above the storm, you're called to live above the circumstances of this world, sustained by the power and grace of God. Hallelujah!
*PRAYER*
_Dear Father, thank you for your unfailing love, guidance and strength in my life. I trust completely in your ability to lead, sustain and uphold me. I walk in confidence, knowing that you direct my steps and cause me to rise above every limitation and challenge. Your wisdom and power are at work in me today, in Jesus' Name. Amen._
*FURTHER STUDY:*
*Deuteronomy 32:11-13* As an eagle stirreth up her nest, fluttereth over her young, spreadeth abroad her wings, taketh them, beareth them on her wings: *12* So the Lord alone did lead him, and there was no strange god with him. *13* He made him ride on the high places of the earth, that he might eat the increase of the fields; and he made him to suck honey out of the rock, and oil out of the flinty rock;
*Isaiah 40:31* 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.
*Psalm 18:32-33* It is God that girdeth me with strength, and maketh my way perfect. *33* He maketh my feet like hinds' feet, and setteth me upon my high places.
