Download or read book Consider the Birds written by Debbie Blue and published by Abingdon Press. This book was released on 2013-08-20 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From biblical times to today, humans have found meaning and significance in the actions and symbolism of birds. We admire their mystery and manners, their strength and fragility, their beauty and their ugliness—and perhaps compare these very characteristics to their own lives in the process. Though admired today, the birds of Scripture are largely unseen and underappreciated. From the well-known image of the dove to the birds that gorge on the flesh of the defeated “beast” in Revelation, birds play a dynamic part in Scripture. They bring bread to the prophets. They are food for the wanderers. As sacrifices, they are the currency of mercy. Highlighting 10 birds throughout Scripture, author Debbie Blue explores their significance in both familiar and unfamiliar biblical stories and illustrates how and why they have represented humanity across culture, Christian tradition, art, and contemporary psyche. With these (usually) minor characters at the forefront of human imaginations, poignant life lessons illuminate such qualities as desire and gratitude, power and vulnerability, insignificance and importance—even as readers gain a better understanding that God’s mysterious grace is sometimes most evident in His simplest of creatures.

Book Your Mind Is My Experience

Download or read book Your Mind Is My Experience written by Nwokorie Matthew and published by Strategic Book Publishing. This book was released on 2014-03-10 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Your body is not your limitation as is generally believed by many. Limitations in life are all a product of the mind. Where you are today and where you will be tomorrow are a result of the functioning of your mind. Many have been trained or indoctrinated to believe that they are limited in life because of their physical condition. The truth is they are limited by their poor vision. Their vision of the things they can accomplish can be so limited that they see goals as impossible. Because they see things in these terms, it makes them draw inspiration from only those things, thereby limiting their physical aspect of life. The human mind was created not to function with any form of limitation, but because of religious, traditional, and societal beliefs not based on fact, men and women are held back from making the most of their lives. Do you want to live an unlimited life? If so, you need to have a vision that comes from God and not from men. The author was motivated to write this book because so many are being limited in their life endeavors, while only a very few are in control of the wealth of this world. He states, My dream is to reveal the truth to the world about the ability of what a mind can do.

Book excerpt: ABOUT THE BOOKEagle is a common name for some members of the bird family accipitridae; it belongs to several genres that are not necessarily closely related to each other; Eagles are admired the world over as living symbols of power, freedom, and transcendence. Most of the sixty species of eagles are from Eurasia and Africa. Outside this area, just eleven species can be found - two species (the bald eagle and golden eagle) in the United States and Canada, nine species in Central America and South America, and three species in Australia.To soar, an eagle needs a headwind; therefore we need to know the following in order to soar like an eagle:God Helps Us Soar Like an EagleWhen God says that we can soar on wings like an eagle, He is not suggesting that we attempt unassisted aerials. He wants us to soar spiritually in our daily walk with Him."But those who trust in the LORD will find new strength. They will soar high on wings like eagles. They will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not faint."Isaiah 40:31Waiting on the Lord for renewed strength is often difficult. In the midst of hardships, the concept of soaring above them can seem impossible. Without God's help, it is. He reminded me, though, that all birds, even eagles, must learn to fly.With His help, we can learn to soar1. We Must Face the Headwinds"Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil for You are with me" Psalm 23:4Storms and difficulties are like headwinds that blow in upon our lives, sometimes with gale-forced strength. As eagles face headwinds, we must learn to face ours head-on, knowing that God is with us as we do.2. We Must Rest on God's Strength"...Be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might" - Ephesians 6:10Although we do not have literal wings, we can rest upon God. He stretched out His arms on the cross to conquer the gravitational pull of sin's curse on our behalf. We can rest secure in the shadow of His wings, knowing His arms are capable of lifting us up above any problem we face.3. We Must Let God Lift Us"Humble yourselves before the Lord, and He will lift you up" - James 4:10Just as lift results from air pressure changes, God lifts us by changing our perspective in the storm, and reversing the dynamics of our situations for good. Rather than allowing the pressures of our problems to sink us, we can trust in God, who is greater. With His power and love under-girding us, we can with renewed hope and courage rise up, even when things look their bleakest.4. We Must Allow God To Sustain Us"Surely God is my help; the Lord is the one who sustains me" - Psalm 54:4Just as an eagle needs the assistance of air currents and winds to maintain altitude, we need God's help to continue soaring. With the wind of His Spirit in us, and the warmth of His love surrounding us, we can rise above any problem. We can soar.Rather than grovel in the dust of your problems, wouldn't you rather soar above them with GodIN YHIS BOOK, YOU WILL LEARNFACTS ABOUT EAGLESLESSONS TO LEARN FROM THE LIFE OF AN EAGLEPRINCIPLES OF AN EAGLE 7 POWERFUL LIFE LESSONS FROM THE EAGLEHOW TO BE AN EAGLE CHRISTIANTHE EAGLE ANALOGY AND OUR CHRISTIAN WALKGOD AS OUR MOTHER EAGLE DIFFRENT BIBLE VERSION WHERE GOD COMPARED HIMSELF TO EAGLESTIRRING THE NEST: AN EAGLE'S LESSON ON GOD'S LOVE HOW TO SOAR LIKE AN EAGLE WITH GODQUOTES ON EAGLES

Book Soaring High Like Eagles

Download or read book Soaring High Like Eagles written by Stephen Ifekoya and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2013-06-03 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: SOARING HIGH LIKE EAGLES is an instructional material put together to be a blessing to individuals and leaders from the church and business organizations. The principles outlined in this book are biblical principles carefully selected out of experience. Research has proved that most private and government organizations that have excelled built their structures on biblical principles. And most of the inventors like Isaac Newton had religious background. Information revealed that Isaac Newton was a deeply religious person who wrote far more words on religion than he did on science. No wonder he remained the greatest scientist that ever lived. SOARING HIGH LIKE EAGLES identifies that all the things in this world revolve around God because of His superhuman strength. Without Him nothing can stand. With this understanding, the principles taught in this book are based on waiting on the Lord as the only way to soar high like the eagles using Isaiah 40:31 as the background scripture. It is therefore believed that any individual or organization that applies all the secrets exposed in this book is on the way to the top. It is a book you must read.

Book You Can Soar Like an Eagle

Download or read book You Can Soar Like an Eagle written by Nell Mohney and published by Dimensions for Living. This book was released on 2004 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not be weary, they will walk and not be faint.(Isaiah 40:31 KJV)The eagle is a majestic bird that represents inspiration and courage. According to my research, it is the only bird that will not try to avoid a storm. Though eagles don't seek out a storm, when one occurs, they hang on until they can soar above it.It occurs to me that some people are like eagles. It isn't that they have no storms or difficulties in their lives; all of us do. What makes them “eagle people” is their tenacious hold on hope. When a storm comes, instead of worrying, they draw upon the inner resources that come from faith to rise above the storm and soar.In this book, we will explore the resources available to us as Christians when storms suddenly appear upon our horizons. Among these resources are the Bible, the revealed Word of God; prayer; worship; and the example and encouragement of Christian friends, family members, co-workers, and neighbors. When we use these God-given resources, we too can “soar like an eagle”!—adapted from the introductionEach chapter includes a key Scripture verse, personal stories and anecdotes, practical and spiritual insights for inspiration and encouragement in weathering the storms of life, and questions for reflection or discussion. Some chapters also include “An Eagle Challenge”—a specific suggestion for implementing a particular principle in your life.

Download or read book On Eagles Wings written by Jimmie Duane Ross and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-11-03 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These true-to-life experiences show how you can overcome and grow from the problems in your life. After all, if it had not been for Goliath, David would have remained a shepherd boy. The challenges that you face are part of life, not the end of it. I used my spiritual strength to conquer those problems and strengthen my faith. You will also see how we can have disappointing times in all segments of life. This includes professions, family, church members, banks, and, most of all, the corporate United States under the control of the unconstitutional Federal Reserve and its collection agency Internal Revenue Service. You will see how our challenges sometimes force us to study and research such entities and discover the fraud and corruption that exists in government, Internal Revenue Service, Federal Reserve, and our judicial system. These things are not taught in government-operated schools that indoctrinate our school kids from an early age. Our judicial system is just as corrupt and no longer rings the bell of justice that was experienced during those wonderful days of freedom and liberties that were enjoyed by all Americans. Today it is all about the money, control, connections, and punishment. You will see that all those areas of life mentioned above use punishment rather than compassion to resolve or correct a situation. There are at least 15 percent of innocent people in prisons for political reasons or just to put another notch in some judges' belt. At least 39 percent of people in prison are nonviolent and should not be placed in prison. A judge in Tennessee stated that his goal was to sentence ten thousand years by his retirement. That is a vendetta, not justice. My purpose in sharing the information within is to reveal to you the two governments that are prevalent in America today. There is the Constitutional United States of America with its fifty sovereign states controlling their own affairs. Then there is the corporate United States, which has become an unconstitutional central government controlling every aspect of the lives of Americans. You were not taught in school about the bankruptcy that the United States was forced to file to the private-owned Federal Reserve in 1933. This is explained herein. I explain how the Internal Revenue Service, Federal Reserve, and its national banking system are frauds as well as corrupt. They use any means necessary to control the citizens of America even by murder, which is also proven from personal experience. The primary purpose is to awaken "we the people" of this country to how they are in prisons without bars and do not realize it. My desire is to awaken the sleeping giant and motivate you to become active in taking back America before it is too late. I hope reveal some records straight and reveal the truth of several personal situations. It should illustrate how our spiritual strength can assist each of us in continual challenges in our lives. The spirit is of utmost importance in moving through this journey of life to arrive at our destiny. Society has lost respect for other people as we witness the atrocities that take place every day. Not only is our patriotism being tested, so is our faith. Our destiny is not found in this life but rather in the life to come.
