Tell Me – Who holds power greater than YHWH?
Not the one who boasts. Not the one who threatens. Not the one who demands offerings like the god of forces.
True strength is found in the One who bears all — who carries physical pain, emotional anguish, mental torment… and does not strike back.
He dies to self in every word spoken, every response given.
A true God does not prove Himself with brute force. A true God does not parade Himself with lying signs and wonders. A true God does not need sacrifices to feel worshipped.
A true God calls His own. He goes before them, and they follow His voice.
A true God created all things, and all creation answers Him. He needs nothing from us — His power is complete. Yet He loves us without condition. He is gracious. He is merciful. He disciplines those He loves.
And His power is so great that He came in flesh, submitted Himself to all, endured torment of body, mind, and soul to show you the depth of His love.
His power is so great that He laid down His life willingly. And His power is so great that He raised Himself up again.
Now you understand the meaning of:
“I desire mercy, not sacrifice.” — Matthew 9:13
Go and learn what this means.
The Mind of Christ
Paul writes:
“Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied himself, taking the form of a servant…” — Philippians 2:5–7
This is the power of the Lamb: He conquers by humility. He reigns by mercy. He triumphs by laying Himself down.
No other god is King except Jesus. No other god empties Himself for sinners. No other god rises in glory after bearing the weight of the world.
The power of the Lamb is undeniable.
