Every Knee will Bow Before the Lion & the Lamb

 ‘The next day John saw Jesus coming towards him, and said, 'behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!”

John 1:29

Lions are roaring while lambs are bahing. 

These two animals vary abundantly in nature. Lions are very lively and constantly hunting while lambs are less animated, they simply graze in their pasture. 

Normally you would not connect these two creatures together unless you would want to be as strong and powerful as a lion, but also calm and gentle as a lamb. 

When you combine these characteristics you get the description of Jesus. He was willing to die for our sins on the cross, yet powerful enough to defeat death. For Christ was as calm as a lamb being lead to the slaughter, He knew that we needed a sacrifice to cover all our sins. Of course Christ's power could have saved Himself from a painful death. However, He humbly chose to bare the cross so that you and I may be saved and see the joy of Heaven. 

What else is more important than His sacrifice on the cross leading us to peace and safety in the hope of heaven? 

Our God is the Lion, the Lion of Judah

He's roaring with power and fighting our battles

And every knee will bow before You

Our God is the Lamb, the Lamb that was slain

For the sin of the world, His blood breaks the chains

And every knee will bow before the Lion and the Lamb

Oh every knee will bow before the Lion and Lamb
