“But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. -  Isaiah 40:31

 

While walking through the forest one day, a farmer found a young eagle who had apparently fallen out of his nest.

He took it home and put it in his barnyard with his chickens and there it stayed for years.

It wasn't long before the little eagle learned to eat and behave like the chickens.

One day a naturalist passed by the farm and saw the eagle confined in the barnyard with the chickens.

When he inquired about this strange sight, the farmer told the man his story.

"Unfortunately," said the farmer, "the poor little guy just never learned to fly."

"Still," the naturalist sighed, "he has the heart of an eagle and can surely be taught. Will you allow me to work with him?"

The farmer agreed, but with much disbelief.

The naturalist picked up the eagle and lifted him toward the sky and said, "You belong to the sky and not to the earth. Stretch forth your wings and fly."

The eagle, however, was confused.

He did not know who he was, and seeing the chickens eating their food, he jumped down to be with them again.

The naturalist took the bird to the roof of the house and urged him again, saying, "You are an eagle. Stretch forth your wings and fly."

But the eagle was afraid and jumped down once again to be with his chicken friends.

Finally, the naturalist took the eagle out of the barnyard to a high mountain.

There he held the king of the birds high above him and encouraged him again, saying, "You are an eagle. You belong to the sky. Stretch forth your wings and fly!"

The eagle looked around, back towards the barnyard and then up to the sky.

Slowly, he stretched his wings, and with a triumphant cry, he soared away into the heavens.

Somewhere along the line, we like this poor young eagle, were put in a lowly barn with the chickens of the world around us.

We learned to live and eat from the ground and grew up believing that there was not much more to do than sit and cluck all day.

But the reality is that we are eagles!

We were created to fly and even soar!

God has great purpose for our lives! If we would only realize who we are in Him!

Let's remember who we are today and stop acting like chickens!

We are the head and not the tail!

We are Kings and Priests!

We have great things to do for the Kingdom!

Prophecy: I Am Setting My Eagles Free

Eagles are meant to fly. Eagles see with great eyesight - eagles see with more clarity. They get a new perspective — a new vision. Eagles were meant to fly to see from a great distance. The church is in need of you! The church is in need of her eyesight back! The church is in need of her eyes back. Watchman on the walls will bring warning when it is due - they will bring blessing when it is due - they will bring reproof and correction when it is due! The church needs her eagles in this hour. Eagles will not fear the storms in life - there will be an excitement that arises within when they see the storm clouds begin to form. Wave goodbye to your yesterdays! Say hello to all your tomorrows; God is already there!

David Lebo

The Lord has been speaking to me over the course of a years' time about this word in many different states and also abroad and I knew it came from His very heart.

Many prophetic voices in the body of Christ have been receiving similar words at this time, so I felt it necessary to release this word to a broader audience as I know it is for the universal ecclesia, the world-wide church, for this time.

The Lord began to sing a new song over His people in a reality of Zephaniah 3:17: "The Lord your God is in your midst, a Might One, who will save. He will rejoice over you with gladness, He will renew you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing."

"You and me and I in you. That's the way that it's got to be. You and me and I in you. Let the trumpets arise. Let the trumpets sound. It's a new day. It's a new dawn.

“I'm making everything new. Wave goodbye to yesterday, for new things I declare for you today. I'm making all things new. I'm making all things new. Just now, fill in the blank. All means all. All means all. Everything means everything! Everything means everything for you!

“Today! Today! Not tomorrow! It starts today! Oh it starts right now! You don't have to wait for a new day tomorrow; it starts today! Oh, it's starting for you right now. It's starting now! Hey, I'll have my now. It's starting now. I'll have mine now. It's a new day! It's the dawn of a new day!"

The Lord continued to speak:

"You've got to step into your new. Take your step of faith right now. Nothing is going to hold you back anymore from this day forward! I'm breaking every chain off your life. Every hindrance has to go ... every rope, every fetter."

"I'm setting you free today. I am breaking off every chain, every rope, every hindrance that would keep you tied down to this old world. My eagles are soaring in this time.

“Eagles are not meant to be kept in a cage. Eagles are not meant to be tied down, or kept in a zoo so that those passing by would say, 'What a beautiful eagle that is! What beautiful wings you have.' But an eagle steps into its calling when it begins to function as God has created it to function.

“Today, on this very day, in this very moment, (for all reading this word) every chain is being broken — every fetter of iron — in Jesus' name. Man has tried to keep you down; man and his religion have tried to keep you grounded.

“And they said, ‘Oh, you look pretty good in this zoo. You've got some nice wings there. Do you think you'll ever get to use them?’ You thought, Well, I can't use them in this cage.

"God, by his holy presence, in this very moment, is setting you free to fly into new dimensions that you have not yet known, and some will soar with new wings!

“These wings, you haven't tried before. You will move in ways and dimensions of my spirit that you have never known before, and it's going to be easy!

“An eagle soars above the storms. You're going to catch the wind of God's presence, and He will lift you higher and higher and higher. It'll be easy! So new! So refreshing! Catch the winds of my spirit. You'll catch the draft — the wind — the ruach — the breath of God blowing upon your life in this very now moment.

“You will soar! This is not just for one day. This is for next week, next month and next year! You will be caught up in a perpetual, never ending state of soaring on wings like eagles in a reality of Isaiah 40!"

"But those who wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles, they shall run and not be weary, and they shall walk and not faint."

They who wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength. They will mount up with wings as eagles!

Oh, I said mount up! Mount up! Mount up! Get ready. Get ready! Be ready to soar like you've never soared before.

You have to hear and receive this word. We are going somewhere today. You will never, ever be tied down again! You will soar on wings like eagles!

Eagles are meant to fly. They are not meant to be grounded. And I know that there are a lot of beautiful eagles in the body of Christ, and some have been kept in the zoo and kept in the cage for far too long.

"Today, you are going to fly! Some for the first time. For many, your old wings were just getting tired. I'm giving you new wings to fly and move in ways of My Spirit that you've never moved in before. The eagle anointing goes hand-in-hand with the prophetic calling. There are many eagles now that must hear these words!"

"You'll see with great eyesight. You'll see with more clarity. You'll get a new perspective — a new vision. When you're on the ground, you can't see things quite so clearly. But my people perish for lack of knowledge.

“My eagles have been kept down. They were meant to fly to see from a great distance. They're not able to see when they are kept on the ground. The eyes of the church have been cut off. The eyes of the church have been kept closed. Why? Because, the prophetic people have not been truly released into their callings!

“The church is in need of you! The church is in need of her eyesight back! The church is in need of her eyes back. You will see with a great vision from a great distance!

“Watchman on the walls: You will bring warning when it is due. You will bring blessing when it is due. You will bring reproof and correction when it is due! The church needs her eagles in this hour.

“God has given me a personal mandate; not only for me, but I believe for many apostolic leaders in this time. The Lord gave me Psalm 91:3 (ESV): ‘Surely He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from the deadly pestilence.’

“He said, ‘The fetters of iron are being broken off! I will free My eagles from every fetter of iron ... the fowler's snare.’

“We've been snared up. We've been trapped. We've been chained up, locked up. God said to me, ‘Dave, you have to go! Free my eagles! Free them into who they were called to be and into who they were created to be. Set them free to fly in the freedom of my Spirit, moving, soaring, as the breath and the ruach of God will blow upon them.’

“But he said, ‘My son, I need you to set them free. I need you to break the chain. I need you to cut the rope — to open the cage door. Honor them, respect them, appreciate them and value them! They are the reason the church is blind, for the eyes of my church have been closed; but they are opening in this time on this day.’

"You will move in new ways of my spirit — new varieties and new diversities. Not everyone flows the same. No one will flow like you. Your anointing will be one-of-a-kind, and you are going to learn how to use your new wings. And, it's going to be the greatest adventure!

“You'll say, ‘Wow, I really like these new things! I'm liking how they feel. Man, I'm going to stretch them out. I'm going to see what these babies will do. I'm going to see how high I can really fly. Somebody's coming up higher, today! Hallelujah!’"

No more eagles in the chicken coop. The chicken wire is being shredded and cut to pieces. The eagles have been in the chicken coop for way too long.

There is a breakout happening right now all over the entire globe, where many have not belonged, or did not fit in, made to be fearful and scared to step out.

Chickens usually stay on the ground in tight quarters and are afraid to step out. They stay in their own small little places.

But eagles soar and fly high all over the world. So, we are declaring a breakout today.

You need to speak this over yourself today: "It's a breakout of the eagles. No more chicken coops for me."

I declare freedom for you today in Jesus' name! Hallelujah!

God says to you, "Arise, oh My eagles. Do not fear the places that I want to take you. Do not fear the storms in your life. You will rise above the storms and welcome them, for a heavy rain of my glory will fall in your life.

“The storm clouds are now forming. I am bringing My heavy rain, for I see the cloud the size of a man's hand. Fivefold ministries are rising in this hour: apostles, prophets, teachers, pastors and evangelists who will all work together for My glory.

“You will not fear the storms in your life. There will be an excitement that arises within you when you see the storm clouds begin to form.

“You'll say, ‘That's where the heavy rain will fall. That's where the heavy winds, the ruach of God — the breath of God — will blow in my life.’"

This old world can't keep you down. This old world has nothing for you.

The things we try to hold onto are just the chains and the ropes that keep the eagles on the ground.

Today, God is setting some people free to step into a new day. Wave goodbye to your yesterdays! Say hello to all your tomorrows; God is already there!
