Month of Judah and Praise to Almighty God

Welcome to the Month of Judah and Praise to God Almighty

Genesis 49:10 The sceptre shall not depart from Judah, nor a lawgiver from between his feet, until Shiloh come; and unto him shall the gathering of the people be.

Gen.49 from 8 to 10 describes Jacob’s prophecy concerning his son Judah, and over your life as Judah’s dominance, strength, and eventual royal lineage. You will be praised, your hand will be on the neck of your enemies, and you will have dominion over them. You are a lion’s whelp, significant in authority, you will be successful for life
