Lion And Lamb Dag Heward-Mills
 

READ: Revelation 5:1-14
«The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.» - John 1:29

Illustration : Lion and LambJesus Christ is both a lion and a lamb. In the book of Revelation, He is called «the Lion of the tribe of Judah». However, He is also called «the Lamb of God that taketh away the sins of the world». Dear friend,  a lion is very different from a lamb. Can the same person that appeared as a lion also appear as a lamb?

It is so important to understand this principle. If you told people to expect a lamb and then a lion showed up, there would be chaos! The kind of preparations you need to handle the visit of a lion are different from what you need to handle a lamb. Preaching about the lion will sound very different from preaching about a lamb. When you are used to “lamb sermons” and your pastor comes up with a “lion sermon”, you are likely to say he has changed or backslidden. But perhaps you are the one who does not have the heart to flow and yield to the Spirit.

The children of Israel prayed for the Messiah for years but when He appeared, they put Him to death. They could not recognize the answer to their own prayer.

Jesus walked with the two disciples on the road to Emmaus but they could not recognize Him because He appeared in a different form. If Jesus appeared in another form, would you recognize Him? It is time to be flexible and see when God is working in different ways. It is time to recognize Jesus in whichever form He appears.
