Isaiah 40:31 - Amplified

But those who wait for the LORD (who expect, look for, and hope in Him) will gain new strength and renew their power; they will lift up their wings (and rise up close to God) like eagles (rising toward the sun); they will run and not become weary, they will walk and not grow tired.

Isaiah 40:31 - CSB

But those who trust in the LORD will renew their strength; they will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not become weary, they will walk and not faint.

Psalm 103:5 - NIV

Who satisfies your desires with good things so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's.

Psalm 103:5 - Amplified

Who satisfies your years with good things, so that your youth is renewed like the (soaring) eagle.

Psalm 91 Pray It & Believe Course

Often around the 30 year mark of life, an eagle goes through an intense molting process. During this time, they find a place to "hide out", usually high up on a mountain top with some sort of rocky, barren area, and they remove all of their feathers, break off their beak and scrape away their talons. Older eagles, who themselves have been through the molting process, will bring food to the eagle as he/she lies on the rockface and soaks in the sunshine.

After the molt comes to an end, the eagle will be faster, stronger, sleeker, with improved eyesight and better hunting and survival skills than even in their youth. This process actually allows them to live a longer life.

Are you enduring a time of molting? If so, hang on to hope and know that the promise of these verses are for you. You will have your strength renewed - you will soar one day - you will run & not grow weary - you will walk and not grow tired - God will satisfy your desires with good things & your years will be full of the blessings of the Lord - you will be stronger, faster, see more clearly, love people better, have more hope and will be even more impactful for God's kingdom than ever before, bringing Him great honor and glory.

Your best days still lie before you.

You have a very bright future, my friend. God's Word promises it!
