The Worthy Lamb

Season 20: Praise & Adoration

Jan 15, 2026

Scripture: Revelation 5:1-14

SHOW NOTES:

In Revelation 4 and 5, John is taken in the Spirit to heaven. He is shown the heavenly throne, surrounded by the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders. The majesty and splendor are breathtaking. Then, he saw a scroll in the right hand of the One seated on the throne, sealed with seven seals.

And I saw a mighty angel proclaiming with a loud voice,

“Who is worthy to open the scroll and break its seals?”

And no one in heaven or on earth or under the earth was able to open the scroll or to look into it, and I began to weep loudly because no one was found worthy to open the scroll or to look into it.

- Revelation 5:2-4

John’s sorrow eases when one of the elders announces that someone has “triumphed.” He looks to see the mighty Lion (the conquering warrior-Messiah from the Root of David) but instead sees the striking figure of a “Lamb” as if it had been slaughtered, standing in the center of the throne room.

And one of the elders said to me, “Weep no more; behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has conquered, so that He can open the scroll and its seven seals.”

- Revelation 5:5

The Lamb is victorious and has been given all power and authority from the One seated on the throne. When He takes the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fall down and sing a new song as they worship the Lamb.

And they sang a new song, saying, “Worthy are You to take the scroll and to open its seals, for You were slain, and by Your blood You ransomed people for God from every tribe and language and people and nation, and You have made them a kingdom and priests to our God, and they shall reign on the earth.”

- Revelation 5:9-10
