Lion

 1 Peter 5:8 ESV

Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. 


We're allowed a sense of humour as God's people. We are however to be sober minded. We're not to trivialise life.

We're to be watchful. As Jesus said 'watch and pray so you don't fall into temptation. The spirit is willing but the flesh is weak'.

Note that the devil is only 'like' a roaring lion. He's a coward really. He's scared of praying Christians to Almighty God.

Nonetheless, satan would devour us if God permitted him. He took everything but Job's life from him. Yet even if God kills us, may we praise his name.

'Almighty Lord, help us to be sober minded and watchful. May we be victorious over the devil, through faith in Christ crucified, in his name, amen'.
