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.

Mike Bickle emphasizes the importance of being strong in God's grace and living as vessels of honor amidst the escalating spiritual crisis in the world. He reflects on the recent solemn assembly of prayer and fasting, highlighting the growing responsiveness of the body of Christ despite the increasing darkness and challenges faced globally. Bickle draws parallels between the soldier, athlete, and farmer, urging believers to adopt a mindset of endurance, discipline, and hard work in their spiritual journey. He encourages the church to rally together, remain steadfast in faith, and embrace the unique opportunity to express love for God during times of resistance. Ultimately, he reassures that this is a remarkable time to be alive in faith, as the breakthroughs of the kingdom will intensify alongside the challenges.

John Gill emphasizes the importance of Christian fortitude, which is characterized by a firm and courageous spirit that aligns with God's will. He distinguishes true Christian fortitude from natural bravery and civil courage, asserting that it is rooted in faith and obedience to God, especially in the face of trials and adversities. Gill illustrates that this fortitude is necessary for performing religious duties, enduring afflictions, and engaging in spiritual warfare, ultimately leading to a fearless approach to death. He encourages believers to draw strength from God, the Scriptures, and the examples of faithful saints, highlighting that true courage comes from a deep understanding of God's love and promises. The sermon calls Christians to embody this fortitude in their daily lives, reflecting the strength that comes from their relationship with Christ.
