WINGS LIKE EAGLES

When we stretch our wings and fly

There’s a freedom that’s released;

Tt’s when we’ve learnt to let go

To discover ultimate peace.

An eagle is majestic

And reaches heights like no other;

It is bold, fierce and confident

And new levels it will discover.

An eagle will always fight a snake

When it’s in mid air,

Since the snake is most vulnerable

And where its power is not there.

An eagle renews its strength

And with patience achieves its mission;

It mounts up and takes the challenge

With keen spiritual insight and vision.

When we’re tempted to be chickens

And where we flap our wings around,

God helps us and encourages us

To take a leap from the fallow ground.

An eagle is an allegory

Of God’s faithful saints and church,

Where on the rock, the spiritual rock

Its faith and mission is birthed.

The eagle will always seek the ‘prey’

That is far off indeed,

Which is the Kingdom of God and His righteousness

And by example take the lead.

Jesus’ body was the ‘carcass’

As He was pierced and bled to death,

But the faithful eagles were by His side

As He paid the price for their debt.

Unfortunately, there will be carnage and carcasses

With the reign of the antichrist,

And the vultures will feast on that tribulation

With an insatiable delight.

However, our Jesus is the ‘body’

Where the eagles do congregate,

And when Jesus returns to rule over the nations

It will certainly be worth the wait.
