Matthew 5:13-16
13. Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.
14. Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.
15. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.
16. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.You are the light of the world but it is your responsibility to let that light shine brighter. You are an Eagle so you must let your eagle so higher. You must let the eagle in you to soar or it become a male story. That you are the light of the world doesn't guarantee your total brightness or shining. You are the one to make it happen. You must know what it takes to make that light in you shine. Jesus is saying I have made you the light of the world but you must engage in what makes that light shine. It is what you make out of that light that makes it shine.
You are an Eagle by Redemption because light begets light. Everything produces after it's kind. A Dog will not give birth to a Lamb. The consciousness of who you are is what determine what you dare.Exodus 19:4,"Ye have seen what I did unto the Egyptians, and how I bare you on eagles' wings, and brought you unto myself".
God told Moses to come now and I will send you to Pharoh that you may bring my people out of their land of captivity. So Moses was the eagle through which God brought his people out of Egypt.
Hosea 12:13, "And by a prophet the Lord brought Israel out of Egypt, and by a prophet was he preserved".
God brought them out in an eagle's wings and Moses was that Eagle through which God brought his people out of Egypt. And Moses filled with the Holy Spirit said a prophet shall the Lord your God brought unto you like unto me him shall ye anoint and shall say to you. He was referring to Jesus Christ. So Jesus came like an Eagle and Jesus said as the Father sent me so I sent you, this means that Redemption had placed us as an eagle.
John 17:18, "As thou hast sent me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the world".
An eagle is not meant to flap, an eagle is meant to soar higher. When Moses appeared in Egypt all eyes was in him and he was untouchable, unstoppable and irresistible because he was an eagle.
Jesus came as a son of a carpenter and one day he was speaking all eyes was on him, he just emerged an excellent Eagle.
Remember, no aircraft is allowed to fly in the air without a predetermined destination. Unlike the car you can turn anywhere you like, but for aircraft it is not so. Before any aircraft is allowed in the air the control tower has the details of where it is going to, which way to take to get there. Predetermined destination is what we call visions and dreams. So it is impossible to soar without a vision of where you are going.
It was a vision that gave birth to eagle Moses. It is also a vision that brought a good Jesus. Jesus knew why he came on Earth and what he came to do. Jesus also knows when his work got finished.
It's impossible for anyone to soar without a vision of where he's heading to. It is impossible for anyone to be allowed to soar in the sky without a vision of where he's heading to. Before you were formed in the womb God knew you. You have been ordained to fulfill a particular mission on the Earth and the discovery of that mission is what we call a vision or a dream. That's where you are programmed to go in life. Your vision and dreams are your Lioner or cardinal direction for your life. It is so important to place appropriate value for your dreams and vision.
The ministry of the Holy Spirit is to unfold the plans of God to each one of us. Jesus said the Holy Spirit shall take it from me and will show it to you. He shows it to you and me through our dreams and visions. It is important for us to know that God have a plan for, it is your responsibility to make the eagle in us soar. Your destination must be defined, that's what our heavenly tower is waiting for to let us take off to the sky.
Remember before you are allowed to fly in the sky where you are going is already established. You are not allowed in the sky until your destination is properly defined. The question is where are you going? What's your mission on Earth? What is your assignment on the Earth? Joseph soared into the sky from a prisoner suddenly became a prime minister because he know where he was going. All that happened to him was to test him and through the test his skyrocketed to the mountain top. You cannot have a genuine dream without a passion, self-discipline and the grace for the wisdom to actualize it.
We saw the diligence, self discipline and wisdom in Joseph. This were all accomplished because of genuine dreams he had. It doesn't matter how determined you might be self-discipline without visions and dream self-discipline alone will take you nowhere. If you are traveling in a public aircraft and you are behind time, everything around you will notice because you'll be very uncomfortable because you won't want to miss the target. The reason for careless living is a dreamless life. Joseph said how can I do this wicked thing and sin against God. Self-discipline was his watch ward because he had in him a clear genuine dream. He was living in excitement for his future. As a slave he wasn't trouble all. You can't have the dream of your tomorrow without living in the reality of it today. We can define a dream in this context as a mental picture of your mission on earth of which you are fully persuaded and that persuasion is what expresses itself in passion, self discipline, diligence and wisdom etc.
For the eagle in you to come alive you must commit yourself to discover your mission on Earth. You must ask yourself this questions,"what am I here in this world to do?there is no product in the market without a particular function in the mind of the manufacturer. There is no one in this world without a purpose in the heart of God. You are not a biological accident personality, you are a definite creature of a definite God. God have a purpose in his heart for sending you to this world so all you need do is to settle them and discover it. Joseph Caught his vision at the age of 17 and by the age of 30 he was a prime minister. He began to soar with his dream in Egypt and the entire world saw it. David comfronted Goliath at the age of 17 and by the age of 30 he became a king in Israel. Jesus found that which was written of him as he opened the book and at the age of 30 he erupted and the world will never recover from the impact he made to the generation yet unborn. This is your chance don't mess up with it. Always ask God what is my mission here on Earth? And when you discover your mission don't mess up with it.
Jeremiah 29:11-13“11.For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.
12. Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you.
13. And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart". Seek God for that plan and dreams with all your heart and he will deliver it to you and that will add color to your life”. Many Believers in the Lord are merely surviving and not truly impacting. You are not created to just survive but to impact. You are the light of the world, the salt of the Earth, a city that is set up on a high hill that cannot be hidden. So you are on Earth for exploit and impacts. Always remember, no aircraft is allowing the sky without his destination properly defined, no believer will ever soar without his vision properly defined. It is the detail definition of where you are going that qualifies you to soar in life like the eagle.
