He Who Is To Come - In the Bible [Verses & Devotional]
As we delve into the lyrics of "He Who Is To Come" by Passion, we are immediately drawn into the imagery of the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ. The song paints a vivid picture of the Lamb of God, who willingly took upon Himself the sins of the world, and the triumphant Lion of Judah, who conquered death and rose victorious.
The lyrics echo the sentiments of John 1:29, where John the Baptist sees Jesus and declares, "Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!" This verse resonates with the first verse of the song, reminding us of the sacrificial love of Jesus, who bore our sins on the cross. The chorus then transitions to the triumphant image of the risen King, reminiscent of Revelation 5:5, where Jesus is referred to as the Lion of the tribe of Judah, who has triumphed.
The song's bridge, "No enemy can hold You down 'Cause there’s no body in the grave now," is a powerful affirmation of the resurrection, mirroring the words of 1 Corinthians 15:55-57, "Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O death, is your sting?... But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ."
The lyrics and these corresponding Bible verses weave together a narrative of redemption and victory, reminding us of the profound love of God, who sent His Son to die for our sins, and the power of the risen Christ, who conquered death and offers us eternal life.
As we reflect on these truths, we are challenged to consider the implications of this great love and victory in our own lives. How does the sacrificial love of Jesus, demonstrated on the cross, shape our understanding of God's love for us? How does the victory of the risen Christ over death impact our perspective on our own struggles and trials?
The song and the scriptures invite us to behold the Lamb and the Lion - to gaze upon the love and power of God made manifest in Jesus Christ. As we do so, we are drawn into a deeper understanding of God's character and His work in our lives.
So, let's ponder this: How does beholding the Lamb and the Lion - the sacrificial love and victorious power of Jesus - transform our daily lives? How does this perspective shape our interactions, our decisions, and our responses to the challenges we face? Let's take some time to reflect on these questions and allow the truths of this song and the scriptures to sink deep into our hearts and minds.
