I bring u greetings in the name of our Lord and saviour Jesus Christ.When God wants to help a man He will speak into that life.The Lord sent a word unto Jacob and the word lightened Isreal.(Isa9:8).As u meditate on these words,He shall enlighten your darkness in Jesus mighty name.Amen.
The eagle is the king of the Aves(birds) and one amongst four greatest of creatures.(Eze1:10).Its unique in character(lives in the high places of the earth) and charisma(soars at great altitude).
Gold in scriptures typifies Deity,it speaks of purity,holiness and undefyment.It also talks of heaven.The Bible says that the streets of heaven are made up of gold,so every Christian who has been bought with the blood of Jesus by reason of the new birth has a NEW GOD NATURE. (II Corinthians 5:17) Our new nature ... because of Jesus ... is as PURE GOLD. We must then desire to be like the Lamb of God-Jesus who is Blameless,wrinkless, spotless,undefied,cleansed and purified for by then will we become a golden eagle.See what Paul says "But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour. If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master’s use, and prepared unto every good work." (2 Timothy 2:20-21).
II Peter 1:4 says we are ‘partakers of His divine nature.’ He imparted His nature in your spirit. So now, all that He is, you and I can be. God intends for us to be as EAGLES Deuteronomy 32:11 says, “As an EAGLE stirs up its nest hovering over its young, spreading its wings to catch them and bearing them on its pinions,” so God leads His covenant people and teaches us to enter into maturity of character as the Golden Eagle. Having looked as our Golden identity in christ.
Let's consider some salient characteristics of the Eagle- 1.THE EAGLE HAVE THE EYES OF VISION.(Eze1:10,Hab2:2,Joel 2:28)- Vision is the supernatural ability to see into God's designed and assigned future for your life.This is what differentiates Vision from Ambition.Ambition is embeded in Vision.Ambition is your desired future but Vision is your designed and assigned future.(Jere1:9). There's something u're designed and assigned for,there is something u were created to become.Halelluyah."What God designed u for,is what he assigns u to" This implies that if u can see it,u can have it and if u can have it,u can live and become it and if u can become it,then u can give it.(Gen15:5-6) So the point is the eagle's eyes can see great distances as much as 50 miles away.it can even directly look into the sun without been blinded.This is absolutely magnificient.O what a bird! No wonder the Bible says "And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh and............ your young men shall see visions:" (Joel 2:28).it therefore follows that the human mind does not have the ability to see vision,only the Spirit enabled eyes does. PRAYERS- Father open my eyes to ur visions for my life.
2. THE EAGLE NEVER EAT DEAD MEAT(I Pet2:11,I Thess5:22, Acts15:20,Job31:1)- U'll never see an eagle eating meat,it did not kill.Eagles don't eat cooked but fresh,lively and wholesome meat.So wot is God saying here- SIN is the dead meat. As a Golden eagle u must abstain from sin in all its colour and weights.Joseph said how then can I do this,not this wickedness,but this GREAT WICKEDNESS,not sin against my conscience or my master,but SIN AGAINST GOD. (Gen39:9).Flee from all appearances of evil,if u want to be a Golden eagle.Dead meat when eaten,never digest.it deteriorates and depreciates us.Dead meat makes us alien to God,run short of grace/glory and sends us to early grave.(Isa59:1-3,Rom6:1-4,3:23,6:23a). PRAYERS- Father,make my ears deaf to the things that do not edify and my eyes blind to the things that do not build up IJN.
3. THE EAGLE FEEDS ON LIVING MEAT.(Acts6:4,Jere15:16, I Kgs19:1-8).- An eagle is not a scavenger.it hunts for its prey while its warm and alive and then kills and eats it.so for u to be a golden eagle,u must of neccesity feed on the Living word of God.From a spiritual and scientific view point,those creatures that feed on life meat are very powerful.The carnivores(flesh eaters) like the Lion is the king of the jungle.it feeds on life meat.Little wonder,witches/occultic men are said to posses great powers.why? Because they feed on human flesh and blood to stay alive and then destroy or kill. (Lev17:11) but thank God there is a greater Lion called the Lion of the tribe of Judah who prevailed by the word for he's the word of God. (Luke4:1-12,Rev5:5, 19:13). In Acts6:4, Paul says we will give ourselves to the ministry of the word.The golden eagle then must be a word addict,one whose heart pants after God's word.words are powerful for the world was fraimed by the word of God so if u are not WORDED,u're WOUNDED in the WORLD.u're grounded and finished so begin to eat scriptures. Jeremiah said when I sought for ur word, I found ur words,I ate ur words,and it brought me Joy and rejoicing.(Jere15:16-paraphrased). Heb4:12(NIV) says the word of God is Living,so its a living meat.Jesus said the word I give unto u are spirit and life.It has the ability to give life to u whether u're sick in ur body or afflicted.Infact Jesus said I'm the Bread of Heaven.he that eats me though he be dead shall live again.Halelluyah. So beloveth,take time to meditate on God's word for it is in the place of God that u hear from him and ur destiny is unveiled.Glory to God. Job said I have esteemed thy word more than my necessary food.(Job23:12). Prayers- Father,make me a word addict IJN., Father as the deer pants for the water brooks,give me grace to pant and eat your words daily IJN.
