Lion killing in the snow

Lion killing in the snow

I Chron. 11:22b
[Benaiah, because of three deeds of valor for which he was widely known throughout the nation was made captain of David’s bodyguard . . . this is one of those mighty deeds.]

Also, HE WENT DOWN [purposely engaged himself in a battle]

and SLEW A LION [found his worst possible enemy – a very powerful, ferocious adversary]

IN A PIT [very difficult place]

IN TIME OF SNOW. [very treacherous conditions]
------------------------

Pray the Word:

Lord, we really prefer to be out where we can run from our LION-like situation à that ‘thing’ in our life that’s out to destroy us. We need and want and ask from You to give us the fortitude to be able - in our very treacherous situation, with our worst possible foe, in the worst possible place, under the worst possible circumstances - to met OUR LION in a pit on a day when snow had fallen.
