Narnia Series review "Prince Caspian"



      Lately I've totally been Obsessing about Narnia movies, I watched it several times when I was younger but never knew It was Bible based. I watched it again and this time I was completely astonished of how relevant it is to the spiritual world of Christianity. 

The next day after watching the Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe, I hurried to turn on my Laptop to watch more. That's when I watched Prince Caspian the second Part of the Narnia Series. Although I was biased of which series I like better, the first one or the second one, I have to say the first one is a win win. I think Narnia series carries many lessons in which to learn from. 

My favorite part of  "Prince Caspian" is when the enemy's army called the Telmarines, turned back from the war when Aslan ordered the trees to help the Narnians fight their battle. They decided to cross the river because they knew the trees cannot go on till that point.  As the Telmarine Army run toward the other side of the bridge, with the Narnians chasing them from behind, there stood Lucy who just came to meet with Aslan in the forest from the other side of the Bridge.
When they saw Lucy, the whole Army stopped. Lucy then pulls out a small sword (knife) on her side, then Aslan the mighty lion came by her side. The army looked around, wondering if they're intimidated or not, but they decided to proceed. 

  Then Aslan roared, as if he commanded the oceans to deal with the Telmarines. 
What happened then was amazing.... After that, I can surely tell you "They're intimidated alright!"



As I watched this, I learned something really interesting. We should always be like like Lucy. Although she was just a girl who is unable yet to fight the battle for herself, she was able to be courageous and bold enough to stand against the enemy. It was a girl vs. a whole Telmarine army.  But she didn't see it that way. In fact she saw the situation more like "Me a little girl with a knife, and a Mighty Lion by my side who is mighty in power, and can definitely defeat the whole Telmarine army.
 
There comes a point in our lives when our fears seems to empower our strengths, and is after to defeat us. But just like Lucy, we should be bold and not fear the enemy  that is coming for us, instead Fear our Mighty God. That we our not in war on our own, but on our way to victory with the one who is able to fight the battles of life with us in victory, and that is with Jesus. So no matter how great the storm is coming in your life, remember the story of Lucy, and her courageous and bold act of faith knowing that she's not alone.

You are not alone! You're mighty God, the Lord of heavens, who does miracles and wonders beyond comprehension is by your side. Trust in Him and He shall make your path straight. He will come through for you all you need to do is pray and call out to Him.

The God of all possibilities is by your side. You are not alone.
