EAGLE EYE SAINTS!

By: Dr. Mike Jones
Throughout history mankind has had fascination with Eagles, known as the king of the birds. Roman Legions (about 6,000) marched under the silver and gold emblem of Eagles. Egyptians used the Eagle as a symbol of victory! Here in America, our founding fathers put the Eagle on our national seal and on our money.

Eagles can weigh as much as 14 pounds and have wing spans measuring seven to eight feet. Turbulent winds don’t affect them.

Eagles in the Bible represent qualities we admire: speed, strength, power, majesty, courage, faithfulness, pride, and tenacity … they don’t give up!!!

As I just stated, Eagles have great courage. For their size, they are the most powerful of creatures and will attack animals larger than themselves. In Australia, they have been known to knock kangaroo and sheep off cliffs. If a snake attacks an Eagle, the Eagle barest its breast, encouraging, the snake to strike it. An Eagle has virtually no FEAR!

Doesn’t this remind you of a Believer that has no fear over demon power, because greater is He that’s within me, than ‘he’ that’s in the world? Saints, there are 34 references to the EAGLE in the Word of God!
