But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. Isaiah 40:31 KJV
The Bible says that those who wait and put their hope in the Lord will renew their strength. That they will rise up as if on eagles' wings…
If you‘ve ever seen an eagle flying, it soars effortlessly. It rises above any distraction or obstacle and harnesses the wind’s power, using it to its advantage for an easy path of flight.
If you’re going to renew your strength and put your trust in the Lord, you need to learn to RISE ABOVE and redirect your focus.
Let your eyes look right on [with fixed purpose], and let your gaze be straight before you. Proverbs 4:25 AMPC
Rise above the things that you know don’t flow from the heart of God…offense, resentment, pride, gossip, manipulation, impurity, vulgarity, strife, jealousy, envy, rage, etc.
All of these things sap your strength so you have to learn to rise above these in your own heart. But you also need to learn how to rise above the conduct of others and not let it distract you.
So prepare your minds for action, be completely sober [in spirit—steadfast, self-disciplined, spiritually and morally alert], fix your hope completely on the grace [of God] that is coming to you when Jesus Christ is revealed. 1 Peter 1:13 AMP
If you get caught up in these carnal things, you’ll miss out on spiritual things. You’ll miss out on a better way.
And yet I will show you a still more excellent way [one that is better by far and the highest of them all—love]. 1 Corinthians 12:31b AMPC
You can SOAR. You can GO HIGHER. There is always MORE in the things of God but not everyone sees them because they don’t decide to RISE ABOVE. Make the decision today to redirect your focus, renew your strength and SOAR.
