Week 6: Worthy Is the Lamb … Who Reigns as Our King

There are a lot of things that we might expect a king to do or to be or to look like. Today, we see a King in Jesus—but he is not like other kings of this earth. Jesus is an entirely different class of King. He is a King who is not only worthy of our service or obedience, but he is worthy of our deepest love and loyalty. As we begin Holy Week, we see Jesus pouring out his love for us in the greatest way imaginable. Because of all that Jesus has done—living, dying and rising again to rescue us from our sins—he is truly the Lamb who is worthy to be called our King.

Week 5: Worthy Is the Lamb … Who Undoes Death’s Curse

Today we see that our Savior is worthy of our honor and praise because he is the one who undoes death’s curse. We’ll consider a couple of resurrection stories—Lazarus being raised from the dead by Jesus, a young boy raised to life through the prophet Elisha. And the point isn’t that God would resurrect us for a few more years of life on this earth, as was the case with these two accounts. Rather, we see that through faith in Jesus we have the certainty that we will never be separated from the God who won our salvation.

Week 4: Worthy Is the Lamb … Who Serves as Our Ransom

As we continue to consider Jesus as the Worthy Lamb, we are once again seeing what it is about our Savior that makes him so worthy—and what he does for us as our worthy Savior. Today we see that Jesus is the Lamb who is worthy to serve as our ransom from sin.

Week 3: Worthy Is the Lamb … Who Gives Sight to the Blind

Today, we see Jesus, the Worthy Lamb, restore sight to a blind man. But in restoring the blind man’s sight, Jesus does so much more—he teaches his disciples, the people around him and us today, a deeper lesson.

Week 2: Worthy Is the Lamb … Who Calls the Outsiders

What does it mean to be an “insider” with God? Are we insiders? What does it mean to be an “outsider” with God? By nature, we are all outsiders—separated from God by our sin. But God has made us insiders, and now we know what it’s like to live with God’s glorious presence in our lives.

Week 1: Worthy Is the Lamb … Who Overcomes Temptation

As we begin the season of Lent, we consider Jesus as “the Lamb who was slain.” In Revelation, we hear all God’s angels cry, “Worthy is the Lamb, who was slain, to receive power and wealth and wisdom and strength and honor and glory and praise!” Jesus is worthy of all of this because of everything he does for us and for all of his people. Today, as we see Jesus doing battle against Satan in the wilderness, we see that Jesus is worthy of our praise and honor because he is the one who overcomes temptation.
