Who is the Lion of the Tribe of Judah






Lions are known to incredibly love relaxation and lazing about. They spend between 16 and 20 hours each day resting and sleeping, rolling on their back in low – lying bush, rubbing their faces on branches and seemingly combing their magnificent mane.  

I have always wondered how this animal could be the KING of all animals, the fiercest and STRONGEST of them all, even the big Elephant!

The truth dawned on me recently. The serene appearance of the lion is a mere deception. Their calm demeanor is because they actually have nothing to be scared of.  They have no natural predators. Just a roar sends all other animals scampering and running for their lives.

Though they act complacent when you see them, they usually possess such Grace, glory and charisma that scream out - KEEP OFF!

God sometimes seems to be lounging and less concerned about our predicament especially when we need him to act in a certain way which may not exactly be his will for us at the time, leading us to the conclusion that God is doing nothing.

We see people mocking and denying the power of God and His existence and we wonder why he lets them without defending himself.

We are even tempted sometimes to fight for Him and take decisions on his behalf.  Some on the other hand decamps to the devils party to get quick response and what they feel is best for them ignoring the fact that the devil does not give free gifts. He gives 10% and takes back 100%. He steals everything leaving the victim distraught, depressed and most times useless.

Precious Saints, Just like the Lion, God can never be afraid of his enemies nor be disturbed by their noise (Isaiah 31:4).

He is the LION OF THE TRIBE OF JUDAH! At His roars his detractors will disperse in fear like rodents. For who can stand his anger or wrath? NOBODY!

According to Julie Ackerman Link If you wonder why God isn’t anxious when you are, it’s because He has everything under control. He knows that Jesus, the Lion of Judah, will triumph.

So, whenever you are sacred or worried about whatever….I mean anything, just talk to your King via prayers and be thankful in advance for with Him, nothing is Impossible.   Always remember that He is on top of your situation. His quietness is not weakness and definitely His silence is not a sign of defeat.

HE IS INDEED, THE LION OF THE TRIBE OF JUDAH AND YOUR GOD!

Anxiety attacks

Can I really do this? Am I good enough? Will this project work out? Can I ever get this job/contract? How would I know the right man?  These and other undisclosed intimate questions have been fighting for a space in my mind lately breeding fear, worry and anxiety. I do understand and believe that I have a father who cares greatly for me. I Peter 5 vs 7 spells it out “ cast all our burdens on him because He cares ” but why do I still worry about life issues? Why do I get depressed when am not going at the pace I planned or getting the desired results? Why does it seem like a dead end sometimes?  It’s simply because I still wear my pride like a badge and cherish it. Pride and Anxiety come in a full package. What’s the correlation between the two words Anxiety and Pride, you may ask? Just look at the two words, what is the letter in the middle of both of them “I”. A symbol of self. The truth is that you are anxious because you bear burdens not meant for you. Phil 4 ...

Before You Date Someone

‘Listen for God’s voice … he’s the one who will keep you on track.’ Proverbs 3:6 Before you date somebody, ask yourself: 1) Am I free to be who I am? Paul writes, ‘Let’s just go ahead and be what we were made to be’ (Romans 12:6 MSG). If you have to reinvent yourself to keep somebody happy, you’re in the wrong relationship. If they disapprove of you now, do you seriously think marriage will improve things? Not a chance!
