Soaring on Eagle’s Wings: A Spiritual Ascension

Divine Whispers | by Viju Jeremiah Traven

The Cross: Love’s Ultimate Revelation

Beloved daughter of Mine, at the Cross, My Son Yeshua stretched His arms wide, unveiling the unfathomable dimensions of My eternal love, its height, depth, length, and breadth, etched upon His crucified body. At that sacred moment, eternity bled into time, and love’s greatest measure was poured out from Heaven to Earth.

After His crucifixion, resurrection, and ascension, I crowned Him with many crowns, enthroning Him as the King of Glory. Before Him, all creation must bow to worship Him, Who is worthy to receive every honor and praise. Amen (Psalm 2:6; 29:2; 96:9; 121:1; Acts 2:33; Hebrews 2:7; Revelation 5:12–14).

The Bride’s Divine Ascension

To follow Yeshua, your Bridegroom, is to ascend higher enduringly, to breathe the fragrance of His holiness and inherit His Divinity and Glory (Matthew 6:13; Hebrews 4:9–11; Lamentations 3:24; Psalm 16:5–11). Empowered by His Spirit, you must humbly rise from the dust on the wings of His grace, soaring like an eagle over all evil that revolt against you (Psalm 91:4; Isaiah 6:1–3).

With nail-pierced hands, Christ is sculpting His Church, a glowing Bride called to reign with Him in the celestial sphere forever (Matthew 16:18; John 12:32; 1 Thessalonians 5:23). Like eagles shedding old feathers and renewing their strength, the beloved of the Lord endure seasons of pruning through tests of faith. Yet they are lifted higher in honor while patiently waiting for their Deliverer.

Divine Discipline and Transformation

I discipline My children by enlightening their inner man to deny themselves and reflect Yeshua’s heart, thus qualifying them to live a higher spiritual life (Matthew 11:28–30; Philippians 3:14; Isaiah 40:31; 2 Peter 1:2–3; Romans 8:13–14). The indwelling Spirit reveals the deeper thoughts of My heart to you like a rushing wind, cleansing, uplifting, and rescuing you from every dark pit of compromise and despair (Ephesians 2:8–10; 5:26; 1 Thessalonians 4:3; 2 Thessalonians 2:13).

By faith and hope in My eternal purpose, the Bride rises from the grave of dead works to be seated with Christ in the heavenly places (Psalm 40:1–3; 61:2). Let the Bride ascend with Elijah’s blazing passion, not through the shadows of death, but by the whirlwind of Glory, lifted in chariots of fire, rising into the realms of Heaven where mortality surrenders to the God of Eternity.

Catching the Divine Wind

My beloved, remain loyal to Christ because His testimony about you becomes the warm wind beneath your wings. Following the Spirit and Word, you will gain the thrust to rise like eagles catching Divine thermals, gaining momentum to soar into destiny’s heights (Hebrews 11:5; Jude 1:17–22; Colossians 1:23; Isaiah 61:1; Numbers 27:18; 2 Corinthians 3:18).

But those who grow cold, casual, or complacent remain grounded, never tasting the exhilaration of life lived in the higher altitudes of the Spirit.

Warnings Against Earthbound Living

Therefore, the cherished Bride must resist the gravity of flesh and sin by yielding to the upward pull of her Bridegroom. I am warning you all: do not become lovers of self or enslaved people chasing worldly ambitions. Flee from boastfulness, arrogance, defiance, and disobedience. Depart from all that is ungrateful, unholy, reckless, and driven by momentary pleasures.

Dissociate with those who carry a form of godliness but deny its power, lest you be deceived and imprisoned by the evil ways of the perishing world (2 Timothy 3:1–9; Galatians 5:16; Romans 1:21; 8:13; Titus 1:16; Matthew 23:27–28).

The Tragedy of False Spiritual Leaders

Some ascend to leadership within the Church driven by selfish ambition, and they disown My purpose for expanding My Kingdom of Light on Earth. Tragically, deceiving themselves, and taking a wrong direction, they reach the dark destination, as did Saul, who was enthroned by the people’s desire but later rejected by God (1 Samuel 13:14). Like Judas, they betray their Master with unrepentant hearts. False disciples quickly trade their Adonai for mere thirty silver coins.

So never grieve the Holy Ruach, Who pilots your spiritual ascent, or you will be doomed (Jude 1:11–16; Romans 12:1–2; Jeremiah 17:5; Galatians 1:8–9; 1 Corinthians 16:22; 2 Peter 2:1–3; Jude 11; James 5:1–6). Do not remain earthbound. Beloved, arise and shine to soar, lest you be disqualified from reaching your eternal destiny (Isaiah 60:1; Matthew 25:34; Psalm 19:14; 91:1-4; Revelation 22:11–14).

The Transfigured Bride

The devoted Bride consecrates herself daily by yielding to My Spirit’s voice to gain superhuman strength, overcoming the adversary. Thus she shall take off, climb higher, and fly faster, defying the gravity of mortality (Psalm 19:14). The radiant Bride who diligently lives a higher spiritual life will be transfigured in the blink of an eye when her Bridegroom returns. He will receive His devoted Bride, pure and ready, and will enthrone her beside Him eternally (Psalm 139:23–24; 1 Corinthians 11:27–31; 15:51–52; Job 13:23; Isaiah 40:31; 2 Corinthians 13:3–5).

The Divine Summons

So lift your eyes above the mortal dust. The wind is rising, and the clouds are parting. The Spirit is calling. The Bridegroom stands ready. Precious lady, fly, beloved eagle—fly!

Prayer 

Father, take me higher with You above the powers of sin, fear, and weariness. Consume what keeps me earthbound and Abba, You robe me in Your Glory. Make me soar as the Bride ready for the return of her Lord and King Yeshua.

Reflection

Am I rising on the wings of the Spirit or sinking under self? Have I embraced the fire that purifies or resisted the call to go higher? The higher spiritual life belongs to those who ascend under the wings of the Almighty with total dependency on their Adonai.
