THE LION OF JUDAH IS NOT A TAME LION
A while back I had a dream. I was at a zoo looking at lions lying in a natural setting. I got closer for a better look but hid behind a rock. Suddenly a lion began to walk past me. It looked like there was another lion hanging onto his opposite side. As he walked past me I noticed vultures hovering overhead. Then the lion turned and what I thought was another lion was in fact the lion’s skin peeled off of him. There he stood, a skeleton, totally eviscerated, a hollow empty lion. He looked so weak I wondered how he could be alive and why someone didn’t put him out of his misery. Then I woke. For two days I was troubled by this dream. I knew that for me the lion represented Christ and His church on earth, and it was a perfect picture of the way the world sees Christianity - a weak, powerless form, barely alive. Then the Lord spoke to me and said, “That lion was in a zoo, but I am not a tame lion, and I am about to stand up. Watch how the world will shake!”
