Bore on Eagles' wings

Bore on Eagles' wings!

Today I recall how the Lord delivered the people of Israel from their captive, the Egyptians, in an unusual manner of deliverance.

That's not what I'm trying to pass across! In the book of Exodus 19:4;the Lord specifically brought to the remembrance of His people, the Abraham seeds, how He deliberately bore them on Eagles' wings and deliver them to Himself.

It reads: "You have seen what I did to the Egyptians, and how I bore you on eagles’ wings and brought you to Myself".

God bearing millions of people on Eagles' wings! What an awesome experience! :)

But that's not the point yet. I want to share how we, the seed of Abraham, redeemed of the Lord too can continue to wallow in the victory we've been handed over by God through His Son Jesus Christ (i.e. the Lord Who single-handedly bore millions of the Moses' generation on Eagles' wings desires we too have similar experience).

As it is being said "there's no one without an obligation". God also by "commission" has been saddling Himself with our needs and He's still doing that, which He has never vowed to quit! Hallelujah.

But what are the things we need do so that our dear aspirations, dreams, goals, ambitions, desires and future will be delivered into our hands? Here I still recall what the bible says concerning we adding to our faith some fundamental qualities that we make us who the Lord dream us being. It was recorded in the book of second Peter chapter One precisely from verse five;

II Peter 1:5-9:"For this very reason make every effort to supplement your faith with virtue, and virtue with knowledge and knowledge with self-control, and self-control with steadfastness and steadfastness with godliness, and godliness with brotherly affection, and brother affection love. For if these things are your and abound, they will keep from ineffective or unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

For whoever lacks these things is blind and short-sighted and has forgotten that he/she was cleansed from his old sin." I will like dwell on one of the major additions we were commanded to add to our faith, Virtues.

Everyone in life desires and by God's programme deserves success, but it is not ready to come on the platter of gold!

Being or becoming what and whom God design of to be, our call to duty and personal development must be obeyed.

Sacrifices and prices in obedience are attached to every greatness.

These are some of the helpful things in making us mount and soar on eagles' wings:

1. Discover where you are meant to be fitted to in life.

"Destiny is all about discovery" someone said. Apostle Paul said:...I don't run like one without aim, I am not fighting like someone beating the air". Because he had discovered his path of purpose

No one gets to his destination without proper direction to the place. Therefore, locate the path of yours in life, get on board and keep travelling.

2. Acquire a skill(s).

For success to come in life, skill acquisition can't be done with. Gone are those days when men/women do without any skill. Our generation can no more do without skilful men and women! Therefore be a part. Acquire skill(s) that falls in line with your passion.

3. Be diligent in your field.

Proverbs 22:29 says: Do you see a man/woman skilful in his/her business, he/she will stand before kings (men of great repute) and not before mere men(men of not value or reputation).

In that skill(s) you've acquired, be diligent in it. Develop your strength to being that of a diligent mind.

4. Be determined.

No one succeed in life without determination. Daniel 1:8;"But Daniel purposed (determined) in his heart..." To succeed in your area of calling, you got to make up your mind to succeed. Success is not by accident neither is it by luck, it is by determination. Be determined to succeed regardless of what your peers say. Be determined to go beyond even if everyone opposes you. Be determined to pursue your dreams even if all you can imagine is darkness. Be determined to succeed even if no one pays your attention.

Be determined to succeed so that you could be a determinant someday.

5. Carry God Along.

King David wrote:"I lift up my eyes unto the hills-where does my help come from? My help comes from the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth". Psalm 121:1-2. In all that you do,never leave God aside for He sees what you cannot see. He has the hand to make strong your hand;He has the shoulder to carry you so that you can see farther. Rely on His Name and strength. He will surely do whatever He has promised you.

Remember: God has given us ALL that pertains to life and godliness, therefore success is not an option, but a PROMISE from the father.

Shalom.
