Today's Devotion:
"Of LIONS and SHEEP"
Visitors to the zoo were surprised to see
a sign "COEXISTENCE" on a fence where
there were both lions and lambs.
Someone asked the zookeeper how that
was possible. Did he first train the lions?
The zookeeper said, "No, but every once in a
while, I have to add some more sheep."
_______SCRIPTURE____________
Mic 5:4
And he shall stand and feed in the strength of the
LORD, in the majesty of the name of the LORD
his God; and they shall abide: for now shall he be
great unto the ends of the earth.
KJV
_______THOUGHT______________
Christ is not only a King, He is also The Good
Shepherd of the sheep (that's us).
His work is "in the majesty of the name of the LORD."
He is King of all the earth (and all creation), yet He
tends and cares for the sheep.
All during this life, we are living with the lions (and
wolves).
But Jesus PROTECTS His sheep.
He is constant in vigilance.
Christian, whatever might happen to you today, just
know that it's not as bad as it would be if Christ were
not your PROTECTOR!
Christ's shepherding is CONTINUAL.
"He SHALL STAND.." is present perfect verb tense.
It means Jesus is constantly guiding, on watch against
predators, feeding and tending His sheep.
His eyes never sleep, His hands never rest: He is
constantly Shepherding His people with tender love
and care.
Finally, Christ the King-Shepherd's rule is ETERNAL.
The ultimate goal of His watch-care, guidance,
protection and provision is to lead us to that eternal
sheepfold - Heaven!
Let us work for Him evangelically today, for the night
comes in which we shall have no more work in this
arena!
Love ya!
