Isaiah 40:31 “but those who wait on the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint.” MKJ

Why is it so important that we understand the importance of this verse; and what is so significant about the eagle?

An eagle does not fight a snake on the ground. It changes its environment by picking it up and taking it high into the sky, then releases it back to the ground.

A snake has no stamina, no power, and no balance in the air. It is useless, weak and vulnerable unlike on the ground where it is deadly, wise and powerful.

Take your fight to the spirit realm; and when you are in the spiritual realm, God takes charge.

Don't fight in the physical realm; change the conditions, like an eagle.

You will be assured of a clean victory.

May God guide and protect us, in Jesus' name.

II Corinthians 10:3: “For though walking about in flesh, we do not war according to flesh. II Corinthians 10:4: For the weapons of our warfare are not fleshly, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds, II Corinthians 10:5: pulling down imaginations and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought into the obedience of Christ; 

II Corinthians 10:6: and having readiness to avenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled.” MKJ

Let us position ourselves in the Word and will of God to make a difference in a world that is under the sway of the evil one – Satan.

ONE LAST THING..Remember that

we are at war, and Satan does not take vacations or prisoners. We are not pigeons, but eagles who operate from spiritual insight and guidance of the Holy Spirit.
