Samuel Acevedo
The victorious Lion of Judah
The sculpture of The Victorious Lion of Judah represents Jesus as the sovereign King over all creation and the universe. The artist, Michael Dudash, intentionally depicted Jesus in control and ruling among lions with all the authority given to Him by the Father. The speaker reflects on the idea of being before that throne and giving an account of his life before Jesus, which used to inspire him with terror. The speaker encourages the audience to be faithful to God and use the gifts and resources He has given them to serve others. The audience is invited to pray and commit to being faithful to God in all aspects of their lives.
