“So Many Voices: Hearing the Lamb in the Roar”
The world is loud. Voices rise from every direction—politicians, influencers, media empires, even pulpits. They promise power, security, purpose. They demand allegiance. In this noise, hegemony roars the loudest—the voice of empire, of control disguised as peace, of dominance masked as destiny. It echoes through governments, screens, and ideologies, pressing us to believe that loudness equals truth.
But Scripture tells a different story.
“The testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy” (Revelation 19:10). Not political speculation, not national ambition, not cultural supremacy—but the testimony of Jesus. The Lamb who was slain. The One who spoke not with thunderous coercion, but with words of truth, grace, and authority that cut deeper than swords. His voice doesn't clamor—it calls.
In Revelation, the Beast is given a mouth—a loud, blasphemous voice that draws the world into deception. That voice is seductive, persuasive, and powerful. It imitates truth but leads away from it. Yet in the same vision, there’s another voice: the still, faithful witness of the Lamb, whose words remain when every empire has fallen.
In the flood of voices today, we must ask: Which voice are we listening to? Are we drawn to the roar of power, or the whisper of the Shepherd? Are we aligning with narratives of empire, or are we holding to the testimony of Jesus, even when it’s costly?
To follow Christ in this hour means tuning our hearts to the true spirit of prophecy—not just predicting the future, but proclaiming the truth: Jesus is Lord, and His kingdom is not of this world.
So many voices. So much noise. But the Spirit still says: “He who has ears, let him hear.”
Hear Him.
