Perhaps you have heard the song on the radio “My God’s Not Dead” by the Newsboys. The song says this in the chorus: “My God’s not dead he is surely alive. He’s living on the inside, roaring like a lion.” I love that line in the song that reminds me of this Scriptural truth: “Then one of the elders said to me, ‘Do not weep! See, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has triumphed.” (Rev. 5:5) Jesus Christ is that Lion of Judah. He is that Root of David, and he lives in our hearts through faith (Ephesians 3:17). So, let me and the apostle Paul ask you this question: “If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare his own son, but gave him up for us all – how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things?” (Romans 8:31-32)
God is alive and well in each one of us! He is roaring like a lion, living like a burning flame in our hearts. And it is through His mighty strength that we can do anything in this life. If He is for us, than who can be against us? So, what is it that you are battling today? Is it death? Jesus promises each one of life out of death. Are you sick? Pray to the ONE who can heal you and give you strength to make it through the tough time. Is it addiction? Surrender your life to the ONE who can set you free! Is it a dysfunctional relationship? Ask for wisdom and courage to do the right thing from the ONE who loves you unconditionally and gave up His life for you.
Whatever your battle is today, you can certainly rest assured that the Lion of Judah is not dead, he is alive and he is on your side! Turn to him today and find freedom and hope for your hurt, hang-up or habit.
Grateful believer,
Micah
