Wings As Eagles


-notes on Wings as Eagles, Majesty Hymns, words by Ron Hamilton, 1950

When we are going through trials and we want to give up because we are losing strength and when our lives seem so bad, we should lift our voices to Jesus. He will strengthen us and help us stand up. God will give us "wings" or help. God will help us anytime we are having a hard time. When our feet stumble and when our dreams crumble God is always there for us.
To run our "race" or finish the will of God in our lives, we must be patients, cast out each weight in our lives such as sins and things that withhold us from our fellowship with the Lord, and we must look only unto Jesus who will help us cross the finish line.
Hebrews 12: 1-2 (New King James Version)
1-"Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us LAY ASIDE every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us."
2- "looking unto Jesus, the author and finished of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God."
We can look at Him with trust because He has already been through these and has won the crown of victory.
He is always ready and willing to help us.
He says, "Follow me to Higher Ground."
God gives wings as eagles. God gives wings to fly and strength to rise above.
God is always faithful to His children. We, as His children, also need to be faithful to Him.
