The Heart of The Lamb

The Heart of the Lamb By Dr. Phil Spears

In the noise of the world—where strength is often confused with control, and power mistaken for dominance—there is a call rising from the wilderness. It is not loud. It does not shout. It does not demand. It whispers. It bleeds. It loves.

It is the heart of the Lamb.

The Lamb of God, Jesus Christ, did not conquer with armies, but with surrender. He did not retaliate, though fully able. He did not run, though every door to escape was open. Instead, He gave Himself as an offering—pure, undefiled, and burning with love.

This is the heart that still speaks today.

A Different Kind of Power

The Lamb’s heart is the heart of divine paradox: strength expressed through sacrifice, victory won through vulnerability, and glory birthed through suffering. The world teaches us to rise by climbing over others. But the Lamb teaches us to rise by laying down our lives.

This heart is prophetic. It sees beyond what is to what could be. It speaks life into dead places. It carries the rhythm of heaven, pulsing with compassion, truth, and mercy.

A Heart That Still Bleeds

The Lamb's heart still bleeds—for the broken, the forgotten, the rejected, and the proud. Not with despair, but with hope. Not with weakness, but with eternal resolve.

In every act of forgiveness, every whisper of mercy, every brave "yes" in the face of fear, the heart of the Lamb beats again. When you love the unlovable, when you speak truth in love, when you refuse to become bitter in the furnace of pain—you echo the Lamb.

You become the message.

Called to the Lamb’s Way

To walk with the Lamb is to walk the narrow path—where love costs something, but gives everything. It is not passive. It is not silent. It is not safe.

It is holy.

This is the prophetic call to the church today—not to mimic the noise of the world, but to embody the stillness of the Lamb. Not to win arguments, but to win hearts. Not to dominate culture, but to redeem it from the inside out.

We are not called to be lions in the streets before we are lambs on the altar.

Final Thought

The Lamb is not weak. He is worthy. In Revelation, the Lion of Judah is revealed—and yet, when John turns to see Him, he sees a Lamb, looking as though it had been slain (Revelation 5:6). That is heaven’s declaration of power: love laid down.

May we carry that heart.

May we live, bleed, and rise with the Lamb.
