SOAR ON WINGS LIKE EAGLESIsaiah 40:31but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.

( THREE THINGS YOU MUST DO TO REACH

2. THERE MUST BE A STRONG LEFT WING OF FEAR OF GOD

3. THERE MUST BE TWO SHARP EYES FIXED IMMOVABLY ON THE LORD JESUS

A. WHAT IT MEANS TO HAVE THE FEAR OF

GOD?FEAR OF GOD IS THE

CONVICTION OF THE HOLY SPIRIT

Isaiah 11:2(NIV)2 The Spirit of the Lord will rest on him—the Spirit of wisdom and of understanding, the Spirit of counsel and of might, the Spirit of the knowledge and fear of the Lord—

CONVICTION OF THE HOLY SPIRIT NOT CONDEMNATION

John 16:8 (NIV)8 When he comes, he will

convict the world of guilt in regard to sin and

righteousness and judgment:

2 Corinthians 7:3(NIV)3 I do not say this to

condemn you; I have said before that you have

such a place in our hearts that we would live

or die with you.

Luke 6:37(NIV)37 “Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and

you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven.

condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus,

manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good.

8 To one there is given through the Spirit a message of wisdom, to another a message of knowledge by means of the same Spirit,

9 to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by that one Spirit,

10 to another miraculous powers, to another prophecy, to another distinguishing between spirits, to another speaking in different kinds of tongues,[a] and to still another the interpretation of tongues.[b]
