Thoughts on Eagles Devotional (Words from the Lord Series)
by Marijo Phelps(373)
It was once said that the eagle that soars in the upper air does not worry itself as to how it is to cross rivers.
Prayer: Oh, Lord God, I’ve been like that eagle – help me to realize when I’m with You that IS my inheritance!!! Father, forgive me for being “on vacation”. Help me to work out quality time in the Word and prayer. Allow me to be refreshed and renewed after six hours of sleep? Help me to leap out of my lethargy into Your presence daily or twice daily? AMEN
There are times child, when you get distracted but I don’t, so fear not, I love you still. Only you can slow down and focus on Me. I shall/am going before you – my timing IS perfect. I shall reveal more to you soon. Rest, recover, absorb my Word and grow.
Oh, Jesus with scratchy, sleep swollen, unfocusing eyes and the proverbial “grunt” in my early morning attitude, I CHOOSE to praise You!!!
Isaiah 40:31
but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. (NIV)
Job 17:9
Nevertheless, the righteous will hold to their ways, and those with clean hands will grow stronger. (NIV)
Psalm 34:10
The lions may grow weak and hungry, but those who seek the LORD lack no good thing. (NIV)
Psalm 61:2
From the ends of the earth I call to you, I call as my heart grows faint; lead me to the rock that is higher than I. (NIV)
Psalm 16:11
You have made known to me the path of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence, with eternal pleasures at your right hand. (NIV)

Lord Jesus, we bring Anne and her job situation before You. You have that perfect path and place for my Sister. Make Your will clear to her and open and close every door in this process. We look to You and give You all the glory! Marijo
