Will you soar with eagles?
May 10, 2010
…they shall mount up with wings like eagles….
--Isaiah 40:31
I've discovered a couple of interesting things about eagles. For one thing, eagles don't grovel in chicken coops. No! These marvelous birds were created to fly high.
And this is what today's verse is telling you and me… God's planned for us to take flight and to live supernaturally-empowered lives.
Let me give you a little example. I once heard a man ask his friend how he was doing. His friend replied, "I'm doing okay under the circumstances." Here's my point. We were made to soar above our circumstances! The apostle Paul put it this way, "Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth" (Colossians 3:2).
Listen! Eagles can't be bothered when storms come their way. They just fly higher when the winds begin to blow. The harder the storm rages, the higher they fly!
And this is what Jesus Christ has enabled you to do as his follower. When times of crisis come, when the storms rage… God speaks to your heart and says, "Look up here… come up higher… draw closer to me. I'll see you through."
Don't let anyone… not even yourself… talk you out of the promise to "mount up with the wings of eagles." This is your promise from God!
Let God lift you to new heights. Soar with the eagles!
WE WERE MADE TO SOAR ABOVE OUR CIRCUMSTANCES!

OUR THANKS TO YOU!
Dear Friend,
Do the words rested... peaceful... and refreshed describe you today? Or do the words stressed... rushed... and pressured better describe your way of life?
If you're like most Christians, you'd probably have to admit those last three words more accurately describe your life most of the time!
The good news is that it doesn't have to be this way... even when your life is one big pressure-cooker. And in my new book, Pause: Resting in God Instead of Stressing Out, I'll show you why.
Based on the principles from Paul's letter to the Philippians and Psalm 23, Pause: Resting in God Instead of Stressing Out will help you find true peace and rest in a world that is anything but peaceful and restful. It's the perfect "pause" button you need!
So please request your copy of Pause: Resting in God Instead of Stressing Out when you give online today! --Jack Graham
