meaning of the eagle painting is...How to weather Any Storm,,,whether it be grief...financial...relationship...depression...addiction any storm in life.....Look to the way of the eagle.........In my painting the eagle in the middle has just encountered a sudden storm......he closes his eyes and he STANDS still....Pslam 46 vs 10..."BE still and know that I AM GOD".............immediately we need to stop and be still and rest in the knowledge that God is with us...he is in our problem he is in the storm......even like the disciples they thought Jesus was asleep but he was with them he could sleep for he did not fear......he arose and He spoke to the storm....storm be still"......some storms will be over as soon as they start...but even if they are not we can face the storms head on and not retreat....and not loose our balance or fall to pieces or look to others for help or support (although sometimes God can use others....we need to know that if there is no one around GOD IS MORE THEN ENOUGH...sometimes we rely too much on other people o r have faith in a pray chains rather then teh knowledge that Jesus is constantly in front of teh father interceeding on our behalf.......or rely too much on other people when we need to know our prayers are enough.... our God is enough...Greater is he that is in us then he that is in the world.... we have the God of the universe on our side we need not fear..................The next eagle is higher up ........he had stood still and known that God is God and now he is going higher to the throne room to present before the father his petitions and prayers and request to find heavenly divine solutions to an earthly problem or storm....But those who wait for the Lord [who expect, look for, and hope in Him] shall change and renew their strength and power; they shall lift their wings and mount up [close to God] as eagles [mount up to the sun]; they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint or become tired................The THIRD eagle has been to the throne room he has mounted higher on those winds of adversity using the problem to bring him closer and nearer to our father and now he can look down from his advantage point high up and look down on his problem from a heavenly standpoint.......;;scripture reminds me of this is Job 39 vs 27-30 "Does the eagle soar at your command and build its nest on high It dwells on a cliff and stays there at night; a rocky crag is its stronghold. from there it looks for its prey...( The enemy the storm the situation) its eyes detect it from afar.".......we see our problems from a totally different perspective from when we are looking down upon them......from this advantage point we can decide and listen our for divine instruction as to whether to fly down and attack the problem the storm the enemy.....But we now have insight ...revelation.....divine strength....strategies......we have faith and hope....and full of the spirit we can put on the full armour of God from Ephesians 6 and go down to attack.....which leads me to the fourth eagle of the painting.......Going into battle...as bold as a Lion and as swift as an eagle........even a scripture in bibles depicts this from Jeremiah 49 vs 22 "Behold, He will mount up and swoop like an eagle and spread out His wings against Bozrah; and the hearts of the mighty men of Edom in that day will be like the heart of a woman in labor.".....Except we will be like the eagle and Bozrah like the enemy the storm we are to face........................other great scriptures for when we face a storm....because all of will face storms.....and unfortunately the storms will get more fierce as this age comes to a close.........1 peter 5 vs 10 And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast.............Romans 12 vs 12.. Rejoice and exult in hope; be steadfast and patient in suffering and tribulation; be constant in prayer"......James 1 vs 2-8 "Consider it wholly joyful, my brethren, whenever you are enveloped in or encounter trials of any sort or fall into various temptations. Be assured and understand that the trial and proving of your faith bring out endurance and steadfastness and patience. But let endurance and steadfastness and patience have full play and do a thorough work, so that you may be [people] perfectly and fully developed [with no defects], lacking in nothing. If any of you is deficient in wisdom, let him ask of [a]the giving God [Who gives] to everyone liberally and ungrudgingly, without reproaching or faultfinding, and it will be given him. Only it must be in faith that he asks with no wavering (no hesitating, no doubting). For the one who wavers (hesitates, doubts) is like the billowing surge out at sea that is blown hither and thither and tossed by the wind. For truly, let not such a person imagine that he will receive anything [he asks for] from the Lord, [For being as he is] a man of two minds (hesitating, dubious, irresolute), [he is] unstable and unreliable and uncertain about everything [he thinks, feels, decides].meaning of the eagle painting is...How to weather Any Storm,,,whether it be grief...financial...relationship...depression...addiction any storm in life.....Look to the way of the eagle.........In my painting the eagle in the middle has just encountered a sudden storm......he closes his eyes and he STANDS still....Pslam 46 vs 10..."BE still and know that I AM GOD".............immediately we need to stop and be still and rest in the knowledge that God is with us...he is in our problem he is in the storm......even like the disciples they thought Jesus was asleep but he was with them he could sleep for he did not fear......he arose and He spoke to the storm....storm be still"......some storms will be over as soon as they start...but even if they are not we can face the storms head on and not retreat....and not loose our balance or fall to pieces or look to others for help or support (although sometimes God can use others....we need to know that if there is no one around GOD IS MORE THEN ENOUGH...sometimes we rely too much on other people o r have faith in a pray chains rather then teh knowledge that Jesus is constantly in front of teh father interceeding on our behalf.......or rely too much on other people when we need to know our prayers are enough.... our God is enough...Greater is he that is in us then he that is in the world.... we have the God of the universe on our side we need not fear..................The next eagle is higher up ........he had stood still and known that God is God and now he is going higher to the throne room to present before the father his petitions and prayers and request to find heavenly divine solutions to an earthly problem or storm....But those who wait for the Lord [who expect, look for, and hope in Him] shall change and renew their strength and power; they shall lift their wings and mount up [close to God] as eagles [mount up to the sun]; they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint or become tired................The THIRD eagle has been to the throne room he has mounted higher on those winds of adversity using the problem to bring him closer and nearer to our father and now he can look down from his advantage point high up and look down on his problem from a heavenly standpoint.......;;scripture reminds me of this is Job 39 vs 27-30 "Does the eagle soar at your command and build its nest on high It dwells on a cliff and stays there at night; a rocky crag is its stronghold. from there it looks for its prey...( The enemy the storm the situation) its eyes detect it from afar.".......we see our problems from a totally different perspective from when we are looking down upon them......from this advantage point we can decide and listen our for divine instruction as to whether to fly down and attack the problem the storm the enemy.....But we now have insight ...revelation.....divine strength....strategies......we have faith and hope....and full of the spirit we can put on the full armour of God from Ephesians 6 and go down to attack.....which leads me to the fourth eagle of the painting.......Going into battle...as bold as a Lion and as swift as an eagle........even a scripture in bibles depicts this from Jeremiah 49 vs 22 "Behold, He will mount up and swoop like an eagle and spread out His wings against Bozrah; and the hearts of the mighty men of Edom in that day will be like the heart of a woman in labor.".....Except we will be like the eagle and Bozrah like the enemy the storm we are to face........................other great scriptures for when we face a storm....because all of will face storms.....and unfortunately the storms will get more fierce as this age comes to a close.........1 peter 5 vs 10 And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast.............Romans 12 vs 12..
