“The ten horns you saw are ten kings who have not yet received a kingdom, but who for one hour will receive authority as kings along with the beast. They have one purpose and will give their power and authority to the beast. They will wage war against the Lamb, but the Lamb will triumph over them because He is Lord of lords and King of kings—and with Him will be His called, chosen and faithful followers.” Revelation 17:12-14 NIV
Poem: "THE LAMB OF GOD" by Donna Hendrix
In the stillness of a winter night
The earth received God's Holy Light
An infant born to a young virgin girl
One tiny baby who would change the world
Birthed in a lowly barnyard stable
The King of kings who would enable
Born amid the cattle and sheep
The Lamb of God lay fast asleep
Wise men and kings traveled from afar
Led to this baby by the beautiful star
Shepherds were alerted by angels on high
The Savior is come; time to draw nigh
Angels filled the skies in glorious songs
Singing praises to Him all night long
Peace on earth and mercy mild
Came down to us in the form of a child
What a miracle for the world to see
Yet, many don't believe He is our Savior to be
Many think the infant born in the stable
Is someone's version of a long ago fable
Even those who walked with Him on earth
Doubted this man of the virgin birth
His wondrous miracles, compassion, and endless love
Were not proof enough for them that He came from above
This precious Christmas story is your saving grace
God's gift of love to take sin's place
He sent to this world His only begotten Son
This tiny Lamb of God; the Father's will be done.
Worship & Prayer to be a faithful follower of the Lamb
LORD of lords, and KING of kings, I humbly bow before Your holy presence to worship Your holy name. I go forth today in Your mighty triumph and thank You for calling me to be Your servant. I'm honored that You have chosen me and saved me from the wages of sin and death. Holy Spirit, please teach me to be a faithful follower of the Lamb who counts everything as loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus, my Lord, and Savior. Hallelujah!
