I will list, one by one, the main qualities and traits of the eagle, along with giving you the basic analogy of it's life and how it pertains to a christian..
1. The Basic Analogy of The Eagle
The first thing you need to know about eagles so you can fully understand what the basic gist of this analogy is all about is exactly how they are able to fly, with most of it being on how they are able to soar without actually flapping their wings.
I am sure most of you have seen videos and documentaries of eagles soaring high up in the sky without actually flapping their wings. Their wings are spread straight out and they are literally soaring with perfect ease on the wind currents.
Eagles are born with big and heavy wings, and part of the survival mechanism they are born with is that they have to learn how to fly without actually flapping their big wings. They have to learn how to do this in order to conserve energy. Eagles can literally die if they expend too much energy flapping their wings during flight as versus soaring without flapping their wings.
As a result, what eagles have to learn to do very early on in order to be able to soar without flapping their wings, is to wait for what are called wind thermals to come up on them. A wind thermal is a big gust of wind that will rise up from the atmosphere.
Sometimes eagles will remain perched for days before they can catch a good, strong, wind thermal, where they can then launch onto it and combine a mixture of flying and soaring on that strong wind thermal to get them to where they want to go.
We are the eagle
The wings of the eagles represent our faith and belief in God
The wind thermals the eagles fly on represent the Holy Spirit
“Not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit,” says the Lord. (Zechariah 4:6)
What God is trying to tell us in this verse is that all things will get fully accomplished for Him in this life by the power of the Holy Spirit operating through us, not by our own power or by our own might.
Just like the eagle has to learn how to fly on the wind thermals – we, as born-again, Spirit- filled Christians, have to learn how to fly on the power of the Holy Spirit in our lives. In other words, we have to learn how to walk and fly with the anointing of God. The anointing of God is the power of the Holy Spirit flowing and operating through us to accomplish what God wants us to do for Him in this life.
It is God’s power flowing and operating through us, not our own power. Our power is weak and limited, but God’s power is pure and absolute. We have to learn two basic things if we want to successfully complete all of the divine missions that God has in store for us in this life:
- How to be led by the Holy Spirit,
- And how to walk with His anointing operating through us so we can fully accomplish all of our divine destiny for the Lord.
If you do not learn how to be led by the Holy Spirit in your daily life, then you will never find out exactly what God is going to call you to do for Him in this life. You will never find out who your true soulmate is going to be in this life, and you will never fulfill the divine destiny to which God has called you.
Just like the eagle has to learn how to catch the wind thermal in order to survive in this world, we have to learn how to be led by the Holy Spirit on a daily basis so we can fully accomplish everything God that will want us to accomplish for Him in this life. And just like the eagle has to learn how to ride and navigate on those wind thermals once they actually launch onto them, we have to learn how to walk with the power of the Holy Spirit operating through us so we can fully accomplish the tasks and assignments that God will be calling us to do for Him in this life.
If we learn how to be led by the Holy Spirit so we can get to where God will want to take us to – but we do not learn how to actually walk and flow with His actual power, then we will never succeed at the specific tasks that He will be calling us to do for Him. If God calls someone to be a great evangelist and then leads him to the exact spots where He will want him to work at, but that person does not learn how to flow and walk with God’s anointing on him, then he will have minimal success at best in that specific calling. Again, not by our might or by our power, but by the power of the Holy Spirit operating through us is how we will produce good fruit for the Lord in this life.
The third thing we must catch on this analogy besides the fact that we are the eagle and the wind thermals represents the Holy Spirit, is what the wings of the eagle represent our faith and belief in the Lord.
Bottom line – if we do not have enough faith and belief in God to take flight on the Holy Spirit in order to be led and empowered by Him for service to the Lord, then nothing will ever happen. We will forever stay perched, and we will never fulfill the divine destiny that God has already planned out for our lives before we were even born into our mother’s womb.
