The Lion

Revelations 5:5

5 And one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Juda, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof.

This morning while drinking my coffee, I noticed a hawk on the power line. It was just setting there looking around. Other smaller birds kept flying toward it, but the hawk just set there. It knew that the smaller birds had no chance against it. A thought occurred to me, that is how our saviour is. He is powerful. He cares not what the enemy thinks he can do to him. This is because he is the lion of Judah, the root of David, the son of God. The enemy can never overcome him. He tried once and the mighty lion took the keys of death, hell, and the grave from him. The thing is he dwells within us. He is waiting on us to realize the enemy is just a pest. We are children of God. We are brother and sister in Christ. We serve the Lion of Judah and no little pest can cross him.
