LIVE AS THE LAMB II

Go! I am sending you out like lambs among wolves.

It is good for us that we are sent as lambs among wolves. For though as lambs, we might appear to be vulnerable to hardships, sickness and other elemental forces of this world, we have a special treasure inside us, Christ the Hope of our Glory. We should not allow our vulnerable state as lambs to define us, instead let the treasure, Christ in us, define us. That is, though we remain innocent as doves, let us also be wise as serpents.

Jesus was also sent as a Lamb, He was also vulnerable to attack, especially by the Jewish authorities, yet He remained innocent as a dove. The Bible Says, " He will not fight or shout or raise his voice in public. He will not crush the weakest reed or put out a flickering candle. Finally he will cause justice to be victorious."‭‭ (Matthew‬ ‭12:19‭-‬20‬ ‭NLT‬‬) Though meek, but never demonstrated weakness for He knows who is working in Him. ‭‭In John‬ ‭14:10‬ ‭NLT‬‬, He said "Don’t you believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words I speak are not my own, but my Father who lives in me does his work through me."

‭‭Philippians‬ ‭2:5‭-‬7‬ ‭NLT‬‬ tells us to "have the same attitude that Christ Jesus had. Though he was God, he did not think of equality with God as something to cling to. Instead, he gave up his divine privileges; he took the humble position of a slave and was born as a human being. When he appeared in human form." Let us live as Lambs, " be innocent as a dove and wise as the serpent"

WE PRAY FOR THE GRACE TO LIVE AS LAMB ON EARTH AND BE STRONG IN THE SPIRIT IN JESUS NAME AMEN!

THANK YOU JESUS!
