Little Lion Coloring Book Marion W Richardson

It was prophesied that Jesus would descend from the root of David, from the tribe of Judah. He was called the King of Kings, Lord of Lords long before His birth. Of His Kingship, we read that He is the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end, that He shall reign for ever and ever. Isaiah spoke of the throne, government, and kingdom of Jesus whom He refers to as Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. Here the author has referenced scripture that supports the parallel characteristics of the lion and those of Jesus. Whereas the lion cub will grow to become the mighty leader of his kingdom, Jesus was, and is, and is to be from eternity past to the eternal future. Both the lion and Jesus have been decreed King; have a voice to be reckoned with; defeat their enemies; deliver the oppressed; are the predestined deity with a design to rule; have countless multitudes under their dominion; take delight in their kingdom; and have a face recognized as King. The Bible references the Kingship of Jesus from Genesis through the book of Revelation. We know that His throne is for ever and ever, a throne of glory, a throne that the one who sits upon is worthy of Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power. May we all, from every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people give praise and honor to the LORD Jesus Christ, our savior and redeemer. May we recognize His kingship. May we teach the generations to come of our dear King Jesus, AMEN and AMEN.
