By
Pastor Darryl Woodson
Revelation
5:5_...Behold,
the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has prevailed to open the
scroll and to loose its seven seals.”
1st
Corinthians 15:24_Then
the end, when He delivers the kingdom of God the Father, when He puts an end to
all rule and all authority and power.
Revelation
11:15_...”The
kingdoms of this world have become the kingdoms of our Lord and of His Christ,
and He shall reign forever and ever!”
Jesus
is going to put an end to Satan’s rule and power over this present earth. This
is when He will deliver the Kingdom of God the Father. He is called the Lion of
the tribe of Judah because; when Jacob had his 12 sons who later became the 12
tribes of Israel, he told them all what would befall them in the last days
before he was laid with his ancestors. When he told Judah, he said;
Genesis
49:9-10_...And
as a lion, who shall rouse him? 10The scepter shall not depart from
Judah…until Shiloh comes; and to Him shall be the obedience of the people.
Jesus
is the Ultimate Ruler that comes and takes rule. Judah is in the lineage of
Jesus Christ but he wasn’t a righteous man. God chose him because He chose him,
not because of anything he had done right or wrong. God chose to sacrifice His
only Son to redeem us; it is by this Blood that we are made sons of the most
High God.
Revelation
5:9-10_...You
are worthy to take the scroll, and to open its seals; for You were slain, and
have redeemed us to God by Your blood out of every tribe and tongue…
Colossians
1:19-22_...and
by Him to reconcile all things to Himself, by Him...to present you holy, and
blameless, and above reproach in His sight-
