Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding. He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength. Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall: 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 40:28-31
Andrew Murray wrote, "How does God teach His eaglet children to use their wings? He comes and stirs up their nests with some tribulation or temptation. Why? Just as the eaglets find the mother coming under them and carrying them as they are ready to sink, so the everlasting arms are stretched out underneath the soul that feels itself ready to perish. As the eaglet trusts the mother to carry it, so my God asks me to trust Him to bear me" ( From: God's Power for Today: Andrew Murray)
The class room of faith and trust is found in the current of everyday life. God proves His self, time and time again as we trust in Him in the nuts and bolts of our everyday lives. I have said it before, but it is worth repeating, "I have learned more on the back forty than I have on the front porch."
Allow the Holy Spirit to guide you and teach you in a mighty way as you read our verses from Isaiah. Pray and pour over them again and again. You will be encouraged in your faith and empowered in your walk with the Lord. You will find yourself in the class room of faith and trust.
