"The scepter will not depart from Judah or the staff from between his feet until he whose right it is comes, and the obedience of the peoples belong to him.” - Genesis 49:10
On his deathbed, Jacob blessed his twelve sons and foretold the future of their descendants. For Judah he saw a line of kings leading to an ultimate King to whom everyone would owe obedience. This promise was ultimately fulfilled in Jesus - sometimes called "The Lion of Judah" because he was a descendant of Judah. Jesus is truly worthy of our obedience!
Talking points - Has your obedience belonged to Jesus this week? What are some choices you can make next week to show that Jesus is your King?
