Forever

Actually, this song is called "All Heaven declares"

But what struck me today at worship is, because of us, because of me, He'll forever be the Lamb.

God was never a human being. Being Almighty God - I mean, look around you, the beauty, vastness and majesty of creation - came from God! To give all that divine power up to take on human form, confined and small. The Lion of Judah, became a lamb. The God of the Universe became a sacrifice.

Pastor Lian shared something. She said the measure of love (yes, love can be measured), is in how much Someone is willing to give up. Imagine what God was willing to give up. Not only in terms of power and all, but what He was willing to undergo.

The perfection and the holiness taking on and becoming sin itself. How that must have tortured His spirit. Indeed, His physical suffering (think of The Passion) must have been only a fraction of what He must have been going through in the spiritual realm. And for that reason, I kneel before Him in worship and adoration!


Forever You will be!
The Lamb upon the throne
I gladly bow my knees
and worship You alone!

All heaven declares
the glory of the risen Lord
Who can compare
with the beauty of the Lord
