Behold - The Lion of the Tribe of Judah
Joel 3:16 The Lord will also roar from Zion, and utter His
voice from Jerusalem, the heavens and earth will shake, but the Lord will be a
shelter for His people
A few weeks back as I was preparing
for one of the Tuesday intercession watches on Mt Carmel, I kept hearing the
words, “The Lion of the Tribe of Judah” resounding in my spirit. I
love cats and big cats, so I decided to do a search on the internet
about the characteristics of lions. Below is what I came up with.
As I read the research I kept discovering all the amazing characteristics of a
big cat / lion and it began to stir something deep within my spirit with great
excitement and expectation. I began to think about the characteristics of
the God of Israel, of who He has been, who He is today, and who He will be as
the Lion of the Tribe of Judah for Israel. Just as a lion would protect
the existence of his own "tribe" so is the Lion of The Tribe
of Judah, arising from His
throne with a mighty roar to tenaciously protect the existence of
His "cub" Israel
The Lion is the “king of the beasts” . They have sheer power and great
outbursts of strength that take down their prey. A lions roar can be heard more
than 8 kms away. When a lion roars it can do so with enough force to
raise up a cloud of dust. They exude majesty and have a grand
presence that oozes power, strength and dignity fitting the “king of the
beasts” The roar of a lion is a full deep resonant growl that is
released from deep within. The male lion always takes the front line in battles
and feuds. They mark their territory and then tenaciously guard it, and
defend their territory even when they are outnumbered.
Israel is once again in a very vulnerable, perilous situation . Israel's
enemies are like a bunch of vultures gathering in preparation to launch another
attack against the Jewish state in the hope that this next war will see
the demise of the nation of Israel.
Would you join with us to proclaim, decree and declare with us the power and
might of The Lion of the Tribe of Judah over Israel, and declare His word
(see scriptures and some suggested prayer points below) - His
word will not return void, He watches over His word to perform it.
Pray that the Lion of the Tribe of Judah
will tenaciously guard and watch over His beloved Israel, in these crucial days
and in the days of war
Pray that
He will release His great power and strength to take down Israel’s prey
Pray that
His “roar” will bring confusion into the plans and camp of Israel’s enemies and
His roar will create a “whirlwind” of confusion to deter and defeat the
enemy of Israel Psalm 83:`3-17
Pray for His outbursts of strength and power to protect Israel and to impede
missiles and weaponry and terror coming onto Israeli soil and that it would be
in perfect timing
Pray the
Lion of the Tribe of Judah will be in the front line of the battle-field,
leading the way ahead of our army, navy and air-force
Pray the
Lord will be a shelter for His people Israel in the time of war and attack on
the Jewish state.
Psalm 115: 9 O Israel trust in the
Lord, He is their help and their shield
Psalm 3: 3 But You O Lord are a
shield for me, my glory and the one who lifts up my head
Psalm 91:4 He shall cover you with His
feathers and under His wings you shall take refuge, his truth shall be your
shield and buckler
Isaiah 27:20-21 speaks about the Lord coming out of His place. He is
arising from His throne as the Lion of the Tribe of Judah to display great
power and strength to tenaciously guard and protect His inheritance,
Israel.
Jeremiah 25:30 The Lord will roar
from on high and utter His voice from His holy habitation
Isaiah 31:4 As a lion roars and a
young lion over his prey, He will not be afraid of their voice nor be disturbed
by their noise
So the Lord of hosts will come down to fight for Mt.Zion and for its hill ,
like birds flying about so will the Lord of hosts defend Jerusalem,
defending, He will also deliver it, passing over, He will preserve it
We deeply appreciate you standing with us in the battle that
is raging over Zion ......... Josie
The Lord bless you as you bless Israel by standing
in defense of her right to exist on the land given to the Jewish people by the
God of Israel. Lets pray that Israel will turn back to their God.
Do not be silent, but share this with your fellow Christians, share it with
your pastors, and with anyone you have a chance to speak to. Lets also pray for
that breakthrough to the Muslims, and please remember to pray for all of
the soldiers in the IDF -they are defending and fighting for the Kingdom of
God.
Shabbat Shalom .... David & Josie
