He came as the light of this world, and he rules in authority and righteousness. This Lion of Judah expresses the Light of the world. He is a king of kings, and His light changes us so that we can be the salt and light of the Earth. We have to carry righteous authority wherever we go. That is the purpose of our Life.

“But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.” (Matthew 6:33) 

“[He is] far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every title that can be given, not only in the present age but also in the one to come.” (Ephesians 1:21)
