STOP thinking like a LAMB,
and START ACTING like The LION!
CONQUERING! not “just TRYING.”
For THE LION from ZION –
ABIDES WITHIN -
and EMPOWERS you to WIN!
So find the ROAR WITHIN, let the battle begin,
And BECOME the VICTOR NOT the VICTIM –
EVER AGAIN!
Jesus is LORD but He and choose to give Himself as The Lamb for us as a sacrifice. Now to us He is the Great Shepherd and us to Him as sheep. But as the lambs of the LORD we become lions to the enemy. “He has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His love.”(Col 1:13)
So when we receive Him as LORD He imparts His nature. Not only the nature of the Lamb so that may love as He loves, but also the nature of the Loin so that we can conquer as He conquers.
Jesus has been and is being revealed as The Lamb of sacrifice for salvation. But now He shall be revealed as LORD and Lion. And “as He is, so are we in this world” (I Jn 4:17) We are His ambassadors we have His authority to annihilate the adversary. He is the Head of the church, the Loin of the tribe of Judah and we are His body. So it’s time for us to ARISE in the power of His resurrection, and STOP thinking like a LAMB and start ACTING like the LION!
Eph 1:17-23
17 that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, 18 the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, 19 and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty power 20 which He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places, 21 far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come.
22 And He put all things under His feet, and gave Him to be head over all things to the church, 23 which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all.

Isa 53:4-7
4 Surely He has borne our griefs
And carried our sorrows;
Yet we esteemed Him stricken,
Smitten by God, and afflicted.
5 But He was wounded for our transgressions,
He was bruised for our iniquities;
The chastisement for our peace was upon Him,
And by His stripes we are healed.
6 All we like sheep have gone astray;
We have turned, every one, to his own way;
And the Lord has laid on Him the iniquity of us all.
7 He was oppressed and He was afflicted,
Yet He opened not His mouth;
He was led as a lamb to the slaughter,
And as a sheep before its shearers is silent,
So He opened not His mouth.
NKJV
1 Peter 2:23-25
23 who, when He was reviled, did not revile in return; when He suffered, He did not threaten, but committed Himself to Him who judges righteously; 24 who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness — by whose stripes you were healed. 25 For you were like sheep going astray, but have now returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.

The Lamb is its light. 24 And the nations of those who are saved shall walk in its light, and the kings of the earth bring their glory and honor into it. 25 Its gates shall not be shut at all by day(there shall be no night there). 26 And they shall bring the glory and the honor of the nations into it. 27 But there shall by no means enter it anything that defiles, or causes an abomination or a lie, but only those who are written in the Lamb's Book of Life.
1 And he showed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding from the throne of God and of the Lamb. 2 In the middle of its street, and on either side of the river, was the tree of life, which bore twelve fruits, each tree yielding its fruit every month. The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. 3 And there shall be no more curse, but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it, and His servants shall serve Him. 4 They shall see His face, and His name shall be on their foreheads. 5 There shall be no night there: They need no lamp nor light of the sun, for the Lord God gives them light. And they shall reign forever and ever.
