They will mount up with wings like eagles (Isaiah 40:31b). The eagles' wings signify the resurrection power of Christ. God's power in life, becoming our grace (cf. 1 Cor. 25:10; 2 Cor. 4:7; 12:9a). Those who stop themselves and wait on Jehovah will experience the power of resurrection, will be transformed, and will soar in the heavens (cf. Phil. 4:13; Col. 1:11). Scripture and notes from Recovery Version (1341-1342).

The righteousness of the scribes and Pharasees (Matt. 5:20; Matt. 22:11-13) vs. Living Christ to become God's righteousness (Phil. 1:21; 2 Cor. 5:21; 1 Cor. 1:30).
The appearance of the kingdom of the heavens (Matt. 13:31-32; Rev. 2:12-17) vs. the reality of the kingdom of the heavens (Rom. 14:17).
Exercise your mind to memorize prayers and supplications for recitation (Mark 12:40; Matt. 23:14) vs. exercising your human spirit in prayer through the Word (Eph. 6:17-18).
Living an ethical life through the extraction of "godly values" from the Bible for a testimony of possessing eternal life (Matt. 5:20; Matt. 22:11-13) vs. living Christ through the bountiful supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ that the resurrection life of Christ mar be magnified (Phil. 1:19-21; Phil. 3:9).
I love others because that is what the Bible says you're supposed to be doing (Rom. 8:6a; Rom. 8:7-8) vs. I just love others...I don't know how to explain it; Praise the Lord saints (Rom. 8:6b; Rom. 8:14)!
Eagerly awaiting heaven (No Scripture references available) vs. redeeming the time to be sanctified and transformed into precious materials for God's building which ultimately will consummate in the New Jerusalem for eternity (2 Cor. 3:18; Rom. 12:2; 1 Pet. 2:5; Heb. 12:22; Rev. 21:2, 19-21).
If Jesus were here right now, what would He say or do in this situation (i.e. WWJD)? I will exercise my mind with respect to these fleshly things and thus respond accordingly (Matt. 17:24-25a; Rom. 3:20; Rom. 7:11, 24; Gal. 3:3, 10; Rom. 8:5a, 6a, 7-8, 13a). vs the Lord IS here right now! As the Spirit, He is with me and even in me. By faith, I live, walk and have my being all according to my mingled spirit an in oneness with the Lord (Acts 8:29; Acts 10:13-15, 19-20, 28-29, 44; Acts 13:4; Acts 16:6-7; Gal. 5:16, 18, 15; Rom. 8:2, 4, 5b, 6b, 13b-14; 1 Cor. 6:17).
