Beyond negative circumstances (Part 7)
Today I finished the teaching about the reaction of Christians when they deal with problems. I have already mentioned four groups but today I will finish by talking about the fifth group.
5. Those who trust in the Lord and fly above problems
As I said in the beginning of the teaching, Christians who have the eagle faith will not have to worry about the pressure of problems or dangers they go through because their faith has wings of the eagle that allows them to fly above problems. This does not mean that they do not suffer but they have the ability to see the solution through problems by putting their complete trust in the Lord. As the eagle can fly above the clouds, Christians of the fifth group can continue to pray and praise the Lord in spite of trials.
Christians who have the eagle faith firmly believe that God can make a way where there is no way. When everyone sees the fire and disaster, the Christian who has the eagle faith persists in the belief that God has no limits. It is the eagle faith that helps us to overcome fear. When Goliath stood before the people of Israel, everyone fled and hid but David was a boy but had the eagle faith (1 Samuel 17). David did not understand how a philistine could dare to insult God Almighty!
If you have the eagle faith, people will say that you are mad or unconscious because the faith of the eagle goes beyond the reality of things. He who has the eagle faith sees the opportunity of the glory of God through oppositions or problems while others see a disaster.
I do not know what you are going through right now but the goal of this teaching is to sow in you the eagle faith so that you may fly over your problems to see the invisible solution before God makes it visible. It is your complete trust in the Lord that attracts His power through your prayers.
In closing, I want to clarify that the important thing is not to pray but the quality of prayer is of great importance. We need a prayer based on faith and trust in the Lord and not on fear. When a problem or a danger occurs, many Christians run in prayer trembling but effective prayer is the one that has no trembling because if you are convinced that God CAN get you out of it, why trembling? I agree that fear is natural because even Jehoshaphat and David trembled at the beginning of a disaster but they still managed to dominate the fear inspired by the Word of God and of his greatness.
May God help us all to have the wings of the eagle
God bless you
