As I was in my prayer time, I encountered the presence of an Eagle swoop into the room. A stillness entered the atmosphere, as I sensed a fierce power and strength in this visitation. The room was very weighty, and I began to press into this encounter with the Father for understanding. A few times my spiritual eyes were zoomed into the eye of the eagle. The Father brought me to two scriptures. First, Jeremiah 48:40-41, “This is what the LORD says: “Look! An eagle is swooping down, spreading its wings over Moab. Kerioth will be captured, and the strongholds taken. In that day the hearts of Moab’s warriors will be like the heart of a woman in labor.” Next, Jeremiah 49:22, “Look! An eagle will soar and swoop down, spreading its wings over Bozrah. In that day the hearts of Edom’s warriors will be like the heart of a woman in labor.”

To give some context, ‘Bozrah’, means ‘Sheepfold’ and ‘Stronghold’, and ‘Moab’, means ‘Son’, ‘He is of my Father’, and ‘Just short of the promise land’. Bozrah was known as a city of ruin, cursed, and one of reproach. Bozrah of Edom was conquered by the Moabites, and its destruction is prophesied by Jeremiah and by Amos. Moab was known for its pride, strongholds, and sin, which led to the destruction of their nation. However, as a promise, the Lord brings hope by declaring that the Moab nation will be restored and redeemed.

An eagle is symbolic for protection, strength, courage, focus, new beginnings, and rebirth. A woman’s heart in labor is often full of apprehension, fear, and expectation of birthing. I believe the father is sending a hope filled promise to the world. He, the Eagle, is coming in and bringing His Justice upon the Earth as He has been speaking to me since the beginning of 2020. Pride, strongholds, agendas, and sin are being exposed and torn down. What looks like destruction to His sons and daughters, will turn out to be restoration, redemption, and promises fulfilled. I see many who are pregnant in the spirit, and they are in various stages of labor. Many are experiencing high tension filled moments as they await the transition they have been hoping for. Fear has tried to grip the hearts of people and the pressure has made many are tempted to back down and abort the promises God has given them.

However, I see the Father holding hands of those in labor, acting as a midwife in the spirit, and I hear Him saying, “Hold on a little bit longer, I’ve got you!” It is not time to give up or give in. It is not time to cower, it is time to take courage. It is not time to see in the natural, it is time to come up higher, seeing with the eye of the eagle, Heaven’s perspective. Our God is swooping in with protection as He spreads His wings over nations, over pioneers, over His sons, and daughters. For those who have felt ‘just short of the promise land’, He is swooping in with strength, courage, and readjusting vision with laser focus. I see pioneers gritting their teeth and holding onto their labor beds! Many are right there on the edge about to give birth to promises that will far exceed what they have been expecting. You will not forget the pain, however just as natural births, the promises will far outweigh the labor. I see Jesus at the bedside of these pioneers, and He is saying, “Hold on a little bit longer, I’m right here.”

There is nothing comfortable about labor, however there is an ability to rise above the natural and hit supernatural peace, surpassing all understanding. I see epidurals in the spirit being given out as those in labor lean into the pressure and give it over in His presence. There is grace for those who choose to rest and trust in Him in the midst of intense contractions and pain. Have you heard the stories of those who have encountered supernatural births? Some have said, “I didn’t even have to push” or “When I pushed, it was without pain.” I heard the father say, “I will push for you, I will do the work.” Pioneers, you have labored, endured, and prepared, He will push, He will work on your behalf. Your position is to rest and receive!

These promises have decades of miracles, signs, and wonders attached to them. I see babies being named LEGACY being birthed. The pain you have endured will match the promises deserved. These babies being birthed go far beyond your designated time on Earth. These promises go for generation, after generation, after generation. I urge you now, do not give into fear, do not give up, do not cower down! Hold on a little bit longer, He has you. He is right beside you. The Father is swooping in with protection, strength, courage, and laser focus. New beginnings and promises are being birthed.

Hold onto these promises friends!

“But 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.” (Isaiah 40:31)

“Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.” (1Corinthians 15:58)
