The Lion of Judah. Ever Wonder Why A Lion Can Be So Relaxed?

The Lion of Judah: Read these two chapters & verses. Isaiah 31:4-5, Revelation 5:5. Because God is in control, we have nothing to fear. The lion serene appearance is deceiving, however.  The reason they can be so relaxed is that they have nothing to fear-no shortage of food and no natural predators.  The lion look lazy and listless, but they are the strongest and fiercest of all.  One roar sends all other animals running for their lives. Sometimes it seems as if God is lounging.  When we don't see Him at work, we conclude that He's not doing anything.  We hear people mock God and deny His existence, and we anxiously wonder why He doesn't defend himself.  But God "will not be afraid of their voice nor disturbed by their noise". (Isaiah 31:4).  He has nothing to fear.  One roar from Him, and His detractors will scatter like rodents.  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. Anything under God control is never out of control.
