Lamb

December 20th – Revelation 19:16

Revelation 19:16

At Christmastime, we celebrate Jesus as the humble Lamb who came quietly, wrapped in swaddling cloths and laid in a feeding trough. He entered the world in humility, choosing surrender over spectacle and love over power. Yet Scripture tells us that this same Jesus will return in glory. The Lamb will come again as the mighty Lord of Lords and King of Kings. The hands once tiny and fragile will rule with authority and righteousness. And the crown of thorns meant to humiliate, will be replaced with many crowns of victory. Christmas shows us the gentleness of Jesus, but Revelation reveals His greatness. He came first to save, to heal, and to redeem. But He will come again to reign, restore, and make all things new. The manger and the throne are forever connected. Hope was born in Bethlehem, and glory will be revealed in Christ’s return. This is the full story of our Savior.

Reflection Question:
How does knowing that Jesus came humbly as a Lamb and will return in glory as King shape the way you celebrate Christmas and live your faith today?

Prayer Prompt:
Lord Jesus, thank You for coming in humility to save and redeem us, and for the promise that You will return in power and glory. Help me worship You not only as the gentle Savior in the manger, but also as the reigning King over my life. Teach me to live with hope, reverence, and joyful anticipation of Your return.

May 22nd – Zechariah 14:3

Zechariah 14:3

In the quiet hush of dawn, Christ first came. He came not with the roar of a Lion but with the tender grace of a Lamb, walking amongst us in humility and love. But Zechariah’s prophecy regarding the second triumphant return of Jesus is very different. For this time He will come not as the gentle and humble Lamb, but as the fierce Lion of Judah, majestic and mighty. Oh how the anticipation swells within our hearts, knowing that we shall ride alongside Him! On white chargers, our souls ablaze with the fire of righteousness, we too will return. For we will be given the honor and privilege to be counted among the ranks of God’s mighty army. Standing firm in the face of darkness, wielding the sword of truth, we will march boldly for the Lord. So as the days grow short until the dawn of His return, let us lift our voices in joy! Because we are chosen to stand shoulder to shoulder with the King of Kings, as His faithful warriors in the battle for righteousness and redemption.

December 17th – John 1:14

John 1:14

Could you imagine being John? The disciple fellowshipped, lived, worked, and worshipped with our Lord. John watched how every step Jesus made, and every word He said was an example of God’s truth, grace, and glory. The evidence was clear that Christ wasn’t just His Teacher and Friend, but truly God’s only begotten Son; the  perfect Lamb sent to become the sacrifice for the sins of the world. For John, there was no denying that while He walked the earth, Jesus, who is God in the flesh, was the the perfect representation of the Father and a true reflection of His love and mercy.
