Revelation 5. Day 243 - The New Testament in a Year

The Sealed Scroll.  The Lion and the Lamb.  Worship of the Lamb. 

"Then one of the elders said to me, “Do not weep. Look, the Lion from the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has conquered so that he is able to open the scroll and[b] its seven seals.” - Revelation 5:5

Have you ever wondered how God’s plan for redemption will unfold? Revelation 5 provides a stunning answer. The chapter opens with a heavenly search for someone worthy to open the sealed scroll of God’s plan. John weeps when no one is found, but his sorrow turns to joy when the Lion of Judah—the Lamb who was slain—steps forward. This chapter is a powerful reminder of Jesus’ authority and sacrifice and the response of worship from all creation.

Together, we explore three key takeaways: trusting in God’s sovereignty, worshiping Jesus as both King and Sacrificial Lamb, and living a life of worship. Through the imagery of the scroll, the Lion, and the Lamb, Revelation 5 paints a breathtaking picture of God’s love, holiness, and power. Join us as we marvel at the Lamb who is worthy of all praise.
