Scripture:

ISAIAH 40:1-44:5

Soaring Through Life

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 40:31

My Takeaways

Something Old

To soar through life:

Look upon on the things of heaven
Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth.

Colossians 3:2 (ESV)

Run the race of faith
Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a huge crowd of witnesses to the life of faith, let us strip off every weight that slows us down, especially the sin that so easily trips us up. And let us run with endurance the race God has set before us.

Hebrews 12:1

Walk toward the Lord.
For we walk by faith, not by sight. 

2 Corinthians 5:7 (ESV) 

“For the faithful there is no failure, and faith knows no weariness.” - Charles John Elliott

The phrase 'to wait on Yahweh,' means to: 

  • wait for His help 
  • trust in Him 
  • put our hope or confidence in Him

Lastly, this is a wait of expectation, not exertion.

  • Weary: physically or mentally exhausted by hard work, exertion
  • Faint: feeble or slight: feeling weak, dizzy, or exhausted; about to lose

It does not imply inactivity, or want of personal exertion; it implies merely that our hope of aid and salvation is in Him - a feeling that is as consistent with the most strenuous endeavors to secure the object, as it is with a state of inactivity and indolence

Go on about life

  • thinking of lofty heavenly things, not the troubles and trials
  • enduring the race set before us in His strength, not giving into weariness or fatigue.
  • walking by faith, not by sight

So, we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day. 
2 Corinthians 4:16 (ESV)

Something New

Haven’t you heard? Don’t you understand?
Isaiah 40:21 is repeated; 

Haven’t you heard? Don’t you understand?
Isaiah 40:28.

Something To Do

Soar through life, Wendy. Go on about life, thinking of lofty heavenly things, not the troubles and trials, enduring the race set before us in His strength, not giving into weariness or fatigue, and walking by faith, not by sight
