Leonard Ravenhill emphasizes the power of waiting on the Lord, drawing from Isaiah 40:29-31, where God promises to renew the strength of those who trust in Him. He contrasts the majestic eagle, which soars high above the earth, with the impatience of modern society, urging believers to rise above their circumstances and live in the heavenly places God has prepared for them. Ravenhill illustrates how God, like an eagle, nurtures and strengthens His people, encouraging them to embrace their identity as children of God and to seek His presence for renewal and strength.

Harriet N. Cook uses the majestic eagle as a symbol to illustrate God's care and protection over His people, drawing parallels between the eagle's characteristics and God's attributes. The eagle's swift flight is compared to the speed at which God can bring nations against His people as mentioned in Deuteronomy and Job. The eagle's keen eyesight and ability to soar high above represent God's omniscience and ability to see far beyond what we can perceive. Just like the eagle sheds its feathers and renews its youth, believers who wait upon the Lord can also renew their strength and soar on wings like eagles, as stated in Psalms and Isaiah.

Harriet N. Cook uses the vulture as an illustration to teach about the nature of this bird of prey, its role in cleaning up decaying matter, and its keen eye for spotting food from high above. She draws parallels between the vulture's behavior and certain aspects of human life, highlighting the importance of being vigilant, resourceful, and efficient in dealing with challenges and opportunities that come our way.
