Lions, Tigers, And Bears Oh My Series

And Samuel said to Jesse, “Send and bring him. For we will not sit down till he comes here.” 12 So he sent and brought him in. Now he was ruddy, with bright eyes, and good-looking. And the LORD said, “Arise, anoint him; for this is the one!” 13 Then Samuel took the horn of oil and anointed him in the midst of his brothers; and the Spirit of the LORD came upon David from that day forward. So Samuel arose and went to Ramah.”

We want justice, don’t we? It is not right to judge people based on their appearance, false evidence, or hearsay. On our own we will judge others using this position. Only if we walk closely with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ can we treat others properly as God would want us to.

6 “ The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, the leopard shall lie down with the young goat, the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; And a little child shall lead them. 7 The cow and the bear shall graze; Their young ones shall lie down together; And the lion shall eat straw like the ox. 8 The nursing child shall play by the cobra’s hole, and the weaned child shall put his hand in the viper’s den. 9 They shall not hurt nor destroy in all My holy mountain, for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD as the waters cover the sea.

When our Lord Jesus will Rule on the earth as the Righteous King we will see some unique conditions occur. For one thing our relationship with animals will be noticeably different. Look at the changes that will take place with wild animals - 6 “ The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, the leopard shall lie down with the young goat, the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; And a little child shall lead them. 7 The cow and the bear shall graze; Their young ones shall lie down together; And the lion shall eat straw like the ox.” There will not be any ‘Wild Kingdom’ on TV. The predators and prey will dwell together. Children can go out and play with former dangerous reptiles - 8 The nursing child shall play by the cobra’s hole, and the weaned child shall put his hand in the viper’s den.’

The curse was put on the earth by the Lord way back in Genesis 3, “17 Then to Adam He said, “Because you have heeded the voice of your wife, and have eaten from the tree of which I commanded you, saying, ‘You shall not eat of it’:“Cursed is the ground for your sake; In toil you shall eat of it all the days of your life. 18 Both thorns and thistles it shall bring forth for you, and you shall eat the herb of the field. 19 In the sweat of your face you shall eat bread till you return to the ground, for out of it you were taken; For dust you are, and to dust you shall return.”

We read now that our Holy Jehovah Elyon – The Lord Most High - has removed the curse and by doing so look at what happens -9 They shall not hurt nor destroy in all My holy mountain, for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD9 They shall not hurt nor destroy in all My holy mountain, for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD as the waters cover the sea.
