WHERE THE EAGLE LIVES
The eagle lives on the highest point available in its surrounding. In other words, the eagle will look for the highest mountain in its vicinity and then it will look for the highest tree on the highest mountain and then will look for the highest branch of the tallest tree, and this is where it will build its nest. This is why it is very difficult for any hunter to easily get the eagle.

There are Christians who love to live in the valley. There are some Christians living half way on the mountain. They grumble, they are the people who criticise, they are the people who never achieve anything for God. But the disciple should be like the eagle, he should live on the highest mountain top because in Psalm 1:1, it is the people who live like Eagle that God is referring to as blessed. The Bible says:
- They will not work in the counsel of the ungodly.
- They will not stand in the way of sinners.
- They will not sit in the seat of the scornful.
The disciples should be like an eagle, he should live on the highest mountain top. In other words, you will not find a disciple among those who are in the valley, the ungodly,the sinners and the scornful. Anywhere you find the eagle will be the highest point available. And you will meet him there either singing , praising God, memorising the Bible or speaking the Word of God. Spiritual Eagles live on high.
Ephesians 2:1-6 talks about spiritual eagles and where they sit. It says “And you hath He quickened who were dead in trespass and sin”.
Look at Verse 5-6,
“Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened as together with Christ. And hath raised us up together and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ jesus. “
Where are we seated? Heavenly places. Not in the valley. Not in the clouds in the heavenlies. Just as Jesus Christ is set at the right hand side of the father, so we are also set at the right hand of the Father.
Ephesians 1:20-21 explains it further, it said,
“Far above principalities and powers, and might, and dominion , and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come.
In other words, the living place of the spiritual eagle is very, very high up. If there is a true disciple , you will never be found in the valley, you will be found among plotters, you will be found among fornicators .You will be found among those who are sharing bad jokes. You will never be found among those who are gossiping or those who are backbiting because those people are in the valley,and the disciple is in the heavenlies.
Talking about the eagle, you will never find a nest that is higher than that of an eagle.If an eagle is flying and it finds that another bird has built its nest higher than its own, it will go back home immediately and look for a higher point than that one to build a new nest. When you find two nests equally as high, you can be sure that the birds in the two nests are eagles, because nobody builds higher than that of a king. In the olden days, no matter how rich you are, you cannot build a palace. A palace belong to the king.
Why Eagles live on High Mountain
The reason why the eagles build their nest so high are many.
- It is the king of birds and it must be higher that the other birds, and it must be able to look down on them, because it is the one who has dominion.
- Mountain is a place of victory. Now if you also look at all the great men of God,you will discover that you will always find them on mountain tops. In 2 Kings 1:9-10, when the enemy send soldiers to go and arrest Elijah, they found him on the mountain top and of course, from there he was easily able to rain down on them.
In 1 Kings 18, you will discover that Elijah deliberately choose Mount Carmel for the competition between himself and the prophets of Baal, because he knew that on the mountaintop, he would be at home and the worshipers of baal would be out of tune, because the worshipers of baal belong to the valley, he has now come to the same level as jezebel, with witches and wizards,so they can now begin to torment him as they like. That is why you as a disciple must stay on the mountaintop.
3. Mountain is a place to get help in time of trouble. In Exodus 17:8-15, the Bible says that when the Amalekite came to attack Israel, the first thing that Moses said he would do was, “I will go to the mountaintop’, it would be easy for him to receive help from above. You cannot help anyone that you are not higher than. You have to be higher than someone before you can lift him up. This is why the leader must always be higher than the followers.
4. You can have close contact on the mountain top. In 2 Kings 4:25-27. Elisha was on the mountain top when the shunamite woman came to tell him that her son was dead. You can be sure Elisha was there meditating on the word of God there, it was not long before miracle came to the shunamite woman.
In Psalm 121:1-2, David said.
I will life up my eye unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. My help comes from the Lord who made heaven and earth”.
You can see something about the hill and the Lord. Devil is saying you will not find the LORD crawling in the valley. You are likely to find him seated majestically on the mountaintop. That is why as a disciple,you must always be spiritually high.
How To Get To The Spiritual Mountain
You must keep doing whatever gets you to your spiritual height. Some people sing and that takes them to spiritual heights, for some it is only after fasting for seven days that they are where they should be spiritually ,for some, by the time they pray in tongues for 45 minutes,they bare gone. Whatever you o that lifts you high spiritually, keep doing it. Stay on the mountain top. Stay on the mountain top do not come down.
5. There is divine security on the mountain top
Psalm 91:1 says,
He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadows of the Almighty. “
Stay up there on the mountain top. That is where the eagle lives. Stay there forever. Do not go to the mountain ytop and then come to the valley. Do not stay where satan the hunter can get you. Stay on the mountain.
