“And the sucking child shall play on the hole of the asp, and the weaned child shall put his hand on the cockatrice' den.”
Isaiah 11:8 KJV
Isaiah’s amazing prophecy of what it is like in the Kingdom of God! The nursing child will play safely near the rattlesnake’s den, and the toddler will stretch out his hand and shine light over the serpent. The same Hebrew word for putting out his hand can be translated as an opening of light. Jesus Himself said that unless we become like little children, we can never enter heaven’s Kingdom reality. Even little children in God’s Kingdom have power over the serpent and bring light into its hiding place. The nature of the weaned child is the nature of Christ being produced in us. All is subdued and hostility removed in the Kingdom of God. Christ will transform our humble bodies and transfigure us into the identical likeness of His glorified body. And using His matchless power, He continually subdues everything to Himself. Let’s believe the Word, that is Christ Himself. Glory to God!
