Prayers were said before the message.
Thank you, Father. Turn to somebody and lift up your voice like the voice of a warrior. Please, I want you to pray with the spirit of enough is enough.

Any power that has vowed that this year shall not profit you, O God, arise and bury them, in the mighty name of Jesus.
Any strongman tormenting your life, before you leave this place, I command him to die, in the mighty name of Jesus.
Now stand on your own and with the same aggression you used to pray for your friend,
Powers that want me to drop from the height that I am, wherever you are, whoever you are, die in the name of Jesus.
Powers offering sacrifices, visiting shrines, and raining incantations for me to fall or drop from the height I am, your time is up! Die in the name of Jesus.
Prophetic Declaration:
Things that have been slowing down as a result of the satanic operation against you since this morning’s encounter have been reversed by the blood of Jesus.
Your eagle must not become a chicken.
Lord, I stand by the covenant that established this mountain, and I speak into the lives of these 17 anti-greatness plantations in your foundation, struggling with the eagle of your destiny. With your seven-fold amen, I silence them forever, in the name of Jesus.
You will not go back to where you left off, in the mighty name of Jesus.
Those who are looking up to you shall not end up becoming your sponsors, in the mighty name of Jesus.
Father, let the finger that confused Pharaoh, the Egyptian magicians, and Nebuchadnezzar write a death sentence against any power anywhere that is wishing any of your children here death, in the name of Jesus.
Wherever they are waiting for the breaking news of your death because of what they did against you in the middle of the night, I stand here this day as a servant of God and I speak by the voice of the prophet, the power waiting for you to die. Within the next 72 hours, with your 7-fold amen, that power shall die in your place, in the mighty name of Jesus.
You will say this prayer and shake your body vigorously because this is the concluding part of the prayer I have just prayed for you now.
Say, satanic deposit in my life, as I shake my body backfire, in the mighty name of Jesus.
Prophetic Declaration:
There is a person in this meeting who is responsible for regular disappointment in your life and has just been separated from you by fire! Thank you, Jesus. No more disappointment, thank you, Jesus.
Lift your two hands and shout this prayer with fire in your voice.
Say, O God of this Mountain, arise; command my eagle to soar, in the name of Jesus.
Stretch forth your two hands. (Prophetic Declaration)
Father, I decree from this altar that the poison of darkness that does not allow good things to stay long in the life of anyone here, right there where you are, let the fire of Jesus neutralize it now, in the mighty name of Jesus.
Bewitchment in that environment limiting the destinies of the people in the environment where you live and where you are doing your business, every territorial landlord and strongman enslaving men in that territory, reciting Exodus 19:4, I decree by the word of God, every dominant power oppressing the lives of people, under this open heaven, you are liberated from their oppression, receive your freedom, you are liberated, and your labor shall no longer go to Pharaoh, in the mighty name of Jesus.
Your hands shall count money and make money, and it shall be your money in the mighty name of Jesus.
(Prayer on the Sand) Bring out the sand you brought into this meeting, hold the sand in your hands, and do not sit down.
Say, I speak to this sand, and I use it as a point of contact for the place where I live and do my business. Every territorial power, landlord, and strongman diverting people’s fortunes in this environment (mention where you live), I withdraw my portion and that of my household from your hands, in the mighty name of Jesus.
In this environment, I am in charge (3x), in the name of Jesus. Wherever the word of a king is, there is power. I have the backing of the King of Kings; therefore, I decree for the King to rule by decree, and it is written that I shall also decree a thing and it shall be established; it is written wherever the sole of my feet shall tread upon there shall the Lord give unto me; I am here; I possess this territory, in the name of Jesus.
Honey and milk of this land shall answer unto me and not to any other person, in the name of Jesus.
Prophetic Declaration:
I speak by the voice of God upon the sand in your hands that the power of resurrection will flow into it, in the name of Jesus.
As this sand is taken back to where it was taken from, the Power of Liberation will hit the environment in that location. In that location, you shall prosper, and where you are a tenant, Heaven shall make you the landlord, in the mighty name of Jesus.
It is settled. Drop it on the floor and step your right foot on it.
The power of territorial dominion rests upon you in the name of Jesus. Thank you, Father.
(Opening prayers)
Turn to somebody and say, Happy Sunday, sir or ma, how was your night and family? You are welcome, in Jesus’ name.
Can you look somebody straight in the eyes and say that divine inspiration, a new mindset, a new focus, a new result, and a new you are my dreams?
This month is our Month of Soaring on His Eagles Wings. I pray that seamless success shall come looking for you, in the mighty name of Jesus.
So, this morning I am starting a topic on “Soaring on His Eagles Wings” in the Book of Isaiah 40:29–31, reading, and Exodus 19:4, reading, in the Book of Deuteronomy 32:11, reciting. Illustrating the culture of the eagle, when the eaglet begins to grow and they are mature, it is said that the mother eagle will attempt to train the eaglet on how to fly, so most times what the mother eagle does is put the eaglet on her back, and at some point, she will remove her back to enable the eaglet to fall, and while the eaglet is struggling not to fall and crash, it begins to flap her wings.
There are several lessons we can learn from the life of an eagle.
An eagle is a creature that symbolizes strength.
While believing God for leading into the new year, He said January will be our Month of Soaring on His Eagles Wings, and that creature is an unusual creature; it stands out in the group to which it belongs; the eagle is known as a creature that symbolizes uniqueness; it is strong.
Prophetic Declaration:
I am praying for somebody here that by this morning’s encounter in the journey of this year, strength to succeed without sweat, Heaven shall impact us, in the mighty name of Jesus.
Another lesson we can learn from this creature is that it has exceptional qualities that can inspire us in the journey of life to be strong and undefeatable.
The features of the eagle are as follows:
It is one of the highest-flying and biggest birds in the world.
It symbolizes power.
It symbolizes victory.
It symbolizes bravery and royalty, and in the nations of the world, we have about 27 nations that use it as a symbol, and these nations are powerful.
Prophetic Declaration:
I am speaking prophetically into the life of a man here by this encounter where you have lost your strength. Heaven shall renew your strength, in the mighty name of Jesus.
I speak by the voice of a prophet; at every point where they have ridiculed you, the God of Elijah will make you bounce back, in the mighty name of Jesus.
Eagles do not fear storms; rather, they enjoy them.
Prophetic Declaration:
I am praying for somebody here to receive the power of God that will make you maximize every opportunity that comes your way this year, under this open heaven, in the mighty name of Jesus.
So, the eagle is an unusual creature of God; it has strength, and it can carry other creatures that are 3 or 4 times heavier than itself because it is an unusual creature, reciting Isaiah 40:31.
It also has a strong vision.
So, for you to soar on His eagles’ wings, you need to embrace some of the characteristics of an eagle.
The characteristics of an eagle are as follows:
The power of vision, the Bible says in the Book of Proverbs 29:18, recites. An eagle is known to be a bird that has unusual grace for vision; it can sight its prey from miles away.
It is the only creature that can look into the Sun. Its vision is sharper than that of any other creature, and before it comes after prey, it would have had a clear vision because it is the only creature that does not miss its prey.
What are we saying here on this day? To soar on His eagles’ wings, you need clear-cut vision. The journey of 2024 is characterized by opportunities, and we need to know what we want to achieve this year because it has been said that no aircraft is permitted to fly without a destination.
A plane will never take off without a clear definition of its destination. The reason is that the people controlling the plane are on the ground, so before it embarks on the journey, they must know where it is going. Knowing where the aircraft is going is what will determine how they will guide the pilot to avoid collisions in space. An aircraft is quite different from vehicles, where you can be driving around in the car without a definite destination.
However, no one can fly on His eagles’ wings without vision; until you have a vision, soaring on His eagles’ wings becomes impossible.
So, as children of the Lord, the Lord did not lead His children out of the land of bondage without a definite mission; He gave them precise guidance; He told Moses to go and bring them out so that they might worship and serve Me. He told Moses where he should take them, so they embarked on the journey on the platform of vision, which was the reason He bore them on the eagle’s wings.
Prophetic Declaration:
I am praying for somebody here this day, power for God-given vision that will position you for enviable results, under this open heaven, receive in the mighty name of Jesus.
A life without vision will experience delay and will continue in a circle.
A life without vision will settle for every point he gets to because such a person will assume the position of rest with a little comfort. There are a lot of people in the market square of life who are operating below Heaven’s schedule because they lack vision.
So, to soar on His eagles’ wings, you need a vision for your life.
This year, what do I want to achieve in my life? This year, what is my goal? This year, what have I set out to accomplish for the Master? It is in the vision that you receive from the Lord that your eagle will soar because the vision enhances the speed of a man.
The eagle is a creature of physical strength, which is why it can lift another creature that is three times heavier than itself.
Prophetic Declaration:
And that is why I am praying for somebody here to receive the grace to rise above this level, under this open heaven, in the mighty name of Jesus.
Another characteristic of an eagle is that it becomes excited whenever there is a storm because it can rise above problems. Unlike other birds, when there is a storm, they flee, but not with an eagle. The eagle takes advantage of the storm to soar; there is a difference between flapping their wings and taking advantage of the situation by soaring.
Prophetic Declaration:
I am praying for somebody here that, in the journey of this year, struggles will be separated from your life, in the mighty name of Jesus.
Because of the storm, the eagle takes advantage and soars to higher altitudes. It is the only bird that soars beyond the sky and can access where the aircraft flies. When other birds are chicken-hearted and run away from the storm, the eagle usually goes towards the storm. One thing we need to understand from this is that in life there is nothing we accomplish without some challenges, reciting John 16:33 and Job 14:21.
A life without trouble does not exist, but to soar on His eagle’s wings, you must develop the attitude that can stand all situations; you must possess a winning and the winner’s mindset.
In addition, we must develop the habit of seeing possibilities in every situation. We must become men or women who see a way out of every situation. By possessing the mind of Christ and by embracing the nature of an eagle, life will always respond to us based on our perspective about life.
Illustrating a situation, if you get to a place and all you can find is a problem, there is no way you will succeed there, but if there are problems and you get to the location and you see the situation from another perspective, then you will succeed.
The reason is that what you see is what determines your declarations and confessions, and no man can rise above his vocabulary. When they are saying things are bad and you are saying it is well, those who are confessing bad will experience bad, while those who are confessing well will experience success.
So, to soar on His eagle’s wings, we must change our vocabularies. You must not allow what you are seeing to limit us because we are spiritual beings, reciting John 10:34.
Understanding who you are is what determines what you do in life. If you know that you are an eagle, then you know that nothing can stop you or limit you.
Unfortunately, many are following Jesus, but they do not know who they are.
Understanding who you are is what determines what you dare in life; no wonder the Bible says in the book of Daniel 11:32, reciting. For you to exploit and soar on His eagle’s wings, you need to know who you are and know the power that is backing you, because on our own, we can do nothing.
Prophetic Declaration:
I am praying for somebody here. Every problem you are running from, and that is making your enemy happy, has the power to confront your pharaoh and conquer. Receive that power today, in the mighty name of Jesus.
Moses did not know that physical strength has limitations. Little did he know that he was destined to confront the pharaoh, but at some point, he tried to fight with physical strength, but terror pursued him, and he fled for his life. But when he had an encounter, and by that encounter, he rediscovered himself, then he went back to the pharaoh because, at that point, he had become the eagle that God wanted to use to lead His children out of bondage.
He said to him, Today I have made you a god unto Pharaoh, and Aaron, your brother, will be your prophet.
When Moses had an understanding of his new identity, he went back to Egypt to confront that same man who was looking for him, because he now knew that he was now a god to Pharaoh.
Prophetic Declaration:
I am praying for somebody here. In every situation that is caging the eagle of your destiny, let the fire of God scatter it today, in the mighty name of Jesus.
Illustrating a situation, a powerboat has only one problem, and that problem is what is making it move. What is the problem with the powerboat? It is water that is entering the propeller that enables it to move, but if you attempt to remove the water, then the power boat will not be able to move.
However, in the situation of an eagle, the storm is the enemy, but it is the same storm that is making the eagle soar because if you remove the air, the eagle will not fly. Problems are what give meaning to life, and our attitude towards life challenges is what determines our attitude. How many of us want to soar on His eagle’s wings? You are destined to be a solution to problems.
Prophetic Declaration:
The power to rise and manifest as the solution, under this open heaven, is received in the mighty name of Jesus.
In addition, the eagle is a creature that moves with speed, and this year has been declared our year of open doors and divine speed. Eagles can fly at a speed of 120 kilometers per hour, and they are one of the fastest birds.
However, what are we saying here? To soar on His eagles’ wings, laziness must not dominate in our lives, because to be lazy is to be timid and slow down, and you need to maintain a high speed.
The eagle is a creature that is unique in speed, and as children of God, we need to ask for grace to increase our productivity because this is a year of divine speed and the Lord is bringing the picture of the eagle to us at the beginning of the year. You can see the spiritual connectivity; if it is the fastest among the birds, then you need the speed of an eagle to arrive at your destination on time. As I told us earlier, this is our year of great opportunities, and we cannot afford to be sluggish this year because information is key to speed, and it can be likened to speed itself.
A man with information is 10 times as alive as a man without information. Although it is good to pray, as you pray, seek relevant information in the area of your concern.
Prophetic Declaration:
I am praying for you and myself that any power assigned to reduce your speed this year will let the ground open and swallow that power, in the mighty name of Jesus.
You must not allow anything to stop you because the eagle is a creature with focus; whatever it is out to get, it gets, and nothing can stop it. We must remain focused on the journey that we are on; we need to say no to distractions.
If you highlight what you want to accomplish before the end of January, then nothing will change it, and if you put in all your efforts, even if it will take you to engage in daily contributions because you have a set goal, then you need to ignore all the distractions to enable you to reach your goal.
But if you are busy attending to every distraction, you will discover that after 31 days, you will not have achieved your stated goals because you have allowed distractions to set in to take your attention.
Prophetic Declaration:
I am praying for somebody here with the grace and the power for focus that will make you soar on His eagles’ wings, receive in the mighty name of Jesus.
In conclusion, for you to soar on His eagle wings you need vision, you need to rise above your problems, you need to move with speed, and you need to find or discover opportunities where there are problems because those opportunities are the key to your wealth.
Analyzing a shoe manufacturing company, he deployed personnel to Africa to carry out a market survey, but when he saw Africans walking barefooted, he concluded that the business could not thrive here, and all attempts to sell the few shoes he brought proved abortive. Then he reported to his subordinates that Africans do not wear shoes and will not buy their products.
He stayed for 6 months without sales in disappointment and defeat, but yet the company deployed another personnel, and this second person arrived in Africa, saw people without shoes, walking barefooted, then sent a message reporting that this was a place for business because the people that are not wearing shoes are potential customers, and within the space of 3 months the company shipped in shoes, and Africans began to purchase. This man saw opportunities where problems abound.
Where you are, there is money; in that location, there is wealth, but the problem is that you cannot see it because treasures cannot be seen on the surface of the ground. You need to dig deep, and you need revelation to access divine resources.
Prophetic Declaration:
I am praying for you, under these open heavens, that the revelation, power, and knowledge that will make you see opportunities in the location you are planning to leave will make you receive baptism for it now, in the mighty name of Jesus.
Often we get frustrated with life challenges; sometimes we are tempted to avoid life challenges; sometimes some people will embark on blaming God, saying that they are not lucky or favored, while others will give God conditions, saying that if God does not answer their desired prayers within the next week, they will not serve Him again, and whenever you say this, the devil is happy because that is his utmost desire.
Brethren, you need to see with another eye because that particular issue that seems like a mountain is not a mountain because there is no mountain anywhere; every man’s mountain is a figment of his imagination. All that is required is for us to change our perspective about life.
Prophetic Declaration:
I see somebody here. From today on, good things shall no longer die in your hands, in the mighty name of Jesus.
I see somebody here; from today, anywhere you enter prosperity will speak, in the mighty name of Jesus.
I see somebody here with the same business you are complaining about. Before the end of this year, that business shall fetch you millions because doors of fresh opportunities are breaking open unto you, in the mighty name of Jesus.
Until we begin to see through the eyes of God, the race of cat and mouse will be stopped. Isaac found himself where there was famine, and he opted for Egypt, just like many travelers abroad, without seeking God’s guidance.
Then God appeared because He is a covenant God. He had told Abraham that in Isaac HE will fulfill his covenant, and if HE allows him to stray away, then he might end up embarking on the journey of no return, and based on that covenant, HE appeared unto him, saying, Son, drop that thought, do not leave the land, and I will prove something to you, because it is not the way you think, amid this economic recession, I will prove to you.
Have you not read that your father told Abimelech that when he offered to give him help, he said I would not take anything from you, or, as you say, I made Abraham rich?
Abraham knew who he was and did not take help from a pagan to avoid them boasting that they had made him. Abraham was a man with a strong character. He stood his ground and declared that he would rather die of hunger than bow to idols.
The Lord encouraged Isaac not to be timid and not run into bondage; stay here, and I will prove myself as Elshaddai, as it was stated in Genesis 17; Isaac stayed back in Egypt amid problems, then he was asked to sow, which he sowed, and with that particular seed, things turned around.
What are we saying here this morning? Find opportunities and develop the eagle’s eyes that see beyond the surface and satanic camouflage. One of the things limiting us is that whenever we are confronted with satanic camouflage, we are carried away and scared off.
Prophetic Declaration:
I am praying for you. From today on, this race will be easy for you. As you soar on His eagle’s wings, nothing shall frighten you, in the mighty name of Jesus.
The fifth thing we need to do to enable you to soar on His wings is to get out of your comfort zone.
When it is time for the eaglet to learn how to fly, the mother eagle will throw the eaglet out of the nest, and out of fear of the eaglet, it begins to flap its wings. These acts enable it to gain strength, and when it is about to crash, the mother eagle will carry on her wings and take it again to high altitude, and by the time the mother eagle repeats the acts three times, the eaglet will gain strength and begin to fly.
So learn how to move out of your comfort zone, because you do not change levels when you are too comfortable. Many of the things we are enjoying today were invented out of pain.
Do you want to move on to the next phase? There is a sacrifice. Many of us desire change, but we are afraid of offering the sacrifice. If we fail to offer the required sacrifice, do not think that your wishes to be at the top will manifest, because there is a price to pay.
You are eating all you are making, and you want the business to move to the next level on the platform of wishes: analyzing someone who made $2 million and squandered it to zero and there was no reserve; even when an opportunity came, a property showed up for you to buy; while you had the resources a few months ago, you spent it and you begin to regret your action. Unfortunately, many have missed out on blessings because of prodigality.
Move out of your comfort zone, because if you do not move out of your comfort zone, soaring on His eagle’s wings will be difficult. It got to a point where God forcefully led the Israelites out of bondage, and when they were confronted with little challenges, they began to say they should remain in Egypt because it was a comfort zone for them in a way, but that was not the destiny of God for them.
Many here are looking at me, and you desire to soar on His eagle’s wings, because by now you ought to have been an employer of labor, but you are afraid of taking a risk, and if you are not willing to take the risk, success will be far away.
To soar on His eagle wings, you must be willing to take risks, because if you believe that everything will fall in line with where you are, you may be there till Jesus returns. if you do not take the first step, sometimes you will not see Jesus. illustrating the encounter of Peter walking on the water, he had to take the first step, then the water became solidified, and then he knew he could walk on the water.
What are we emphasizing here? Some people have seen visions, some have gone for prayers, and some have received prophecies but they do not know their whereabouts; they do not know what to do or the steps to take because they are afraid. Then they begin to contemplate, if I drop this job now, the salary…
Prophetic Declaration:
I am praying for you the courage required to take the first step for your story to change and receive baptism for it, in the name of Jesus.
However, because they are comfortable where they are, they miss opportunities because the most important thing in soaring on His wings is receiving instructions from Him. If He is the one instructing you, then you will not run into crises; He will order your steps and guide you all the way. Every move of God with Moses, the Lord always said to him, as it is written in the Bible, “And God said unto Moses,” likewise in every move of Abraham.
Leave your comfort zone to soar on His eagle’s wings.
Prophetic Declaration:
I am praying for you this day that the hand of Jehovah rests upon you. This year, you will not gamble with divine opportunities, and for every opportunity that will come your way this year, you will have the power to grab it. Receive the power in the mighty name of Jesus.
However, if the eaglet remains in the nest, it will not fly at the set time it ought to fly, and this is the reason the mother eagle always helped her by training her through the act of throwing it from high altitude, and within a short time, it stands on its own.
Prophetic Declaration:
I am praying for the move you need to make for you to manifest, the boldness to make that move, and to be baptized with it in the mighty name of Jesus.
Thank you, Father. We will continue some other time, and I would like us to bow our heads and talk to the Lord.
Are you here this day? You are a victim of procrastination; you have a vision but do not know how to actualize this vision because you are constantly hindered by one challenge or another, which is a result of you not having the capacity to rise above the challenges. Often, you start with speed, and something stops you.
Are you the kind of person who does not see opportunities in problems because you always see problems and not opportunities, or are you the kind of person who is afraid of coming out of their comfort zone? You cannot soar on His eagle wings unless you embrace these characteristics of the eagle. Why not ask for grace here this morning?
Perhaps you are in this meeting now, and you know that you have not given your life to Jesus. There is no way you can soar on His eagles’ wings because, to enable you to soar on His wings, you need to step Jesus into your life, which is the first step.
And if you are here and you are saying pastor I want to soar, I want to become a friend of Jesus, then wherever you are please signify by raising your right hand, because that is the reason Jesus brought you to this meeting here, those of us taking the step of faith, please say these prayers with me.
Say, Lord Jesus I thank you for this morning and I confess my sins unto you and I ask that you forgive me my sins.
Today I confess you as Lord and Saviour, Lord Jesus come into my life and take total control of my life, thank you Lord for saving me, Amen
