Psalms 17:12
He is like a lion that is greedy of his prey, And as it were a young lion lurking in secret places.

Shalom sdr, my devotion today, Wed, Feb. 16, LION (Ps. 17:12). David was a shepherd for years. He knew well things about shepherding. He knows about the sheep, the climate, the plants, etc. Including about the hunters of the sheep, bears, lions. No wonder he spoke about lions many times.
1. No announcement.
They would come and attack without announcement. They would be close to its prey suddenly.

2. No alone.
It would attack with its band. It would not chase alone or carelessly. It would arrange the attack together nicely. It could organize a tight attack.

3. No mercy.
They wouldn’t stop until it got its prey. They would kill and eat the prey mercilessly. So is the wicked, they would not give the prey to other wicked people. They would attack and harass the righteous incessantly. So be patient and strong. ASH.
