Sheep among Wolves

Mathew 10:16 – “I am sending you out like sheep among wolves. Therefore be as shrewd as snakes and as innocent as doves”.

God knows about the world that we are living in, the situations, conditions, circumstances, and people that we will be facing in our day today life. The behaviors, feelings & emotions that we will be encountering, so He wants us to be like sheep – submissive, good-tempered, amiable, humble, gentle, meek, with self-control.

And be shrewd like snakes? – This is something different - sheep & snake are two different animals and in the book of Genesis we see Satan in the form of a ‘snake’ – ‘the deceiver’, now we got to look at the physiological framework of a snake – snake doesn't have ears, so it receives vibrations from the surrounding based on which it reacts – so the learning here is that we need to understand the vibes/sense the situation/circumstance and then react, however being innocent like the doves.

Have a blessed day.

God Bless
