"That's My King!" Who's The Passover Lamb, The Substitute Ram, And The Great “I AM” So We Can Become Children Of Abraham!

We've been passed over
The Lamb has been slaughtered
Blood has been poured out
Sin has been atoned for
The wrath of God has been quenched
Because Jesus was not passed over

We've been passed over
Judgment upon sin has been executed
The curse of God has fallen
Hell's flames toward us have been extinguished
The Lamb of God has taken away the sin of the world
Because Jesus was not passed over

We've been passed over
Just like God's people in Egypt were passed over
The lamb without blemish was slain
The blood of lamb was put on the doorposts
Those in the house were saved, safe, and satisfied
While the first born child in every Egyptian house was destroyed
All the first born children of Israel were kept alive
The LORD and His destroyer passed over their homes
But Jesus was not passed over

We've been passed over
Even though we don't deserve to be passed over
Like undeserving Israel, we complain and murmur against God
We don't love Him as we ought
We don't trust Him as we ought
We don't delight in Him as we ought
We don't obey Him as we ought
We don't love our neighbors as ourselves as we ought
And we sin as we ought not
But oh don't you know – by the finished work of the Lord Jesus Christ it's all been taken care of forever
Because Jesus was not passed over!

We've been passed over
God's curse has passed over us
God's wrath has passed over us
God's judgment has passed over us
God's hell has passed over us
God's eternal and infinite condemnation has passed over us forever
Because Jesus was not passed over!

We've been passed over
But Jesus was wickedly turned over
Judas betrayed Him over
Pilate unjustly condemned Him over
Peter denied Him over and over and over
The soldiers mocked, beat, and spit on Him all over
Our sins were counted as His all over
Even His Father forsook Him as He cried out to Him over and over
And wicked men and the devil thought it was all over
Because Jesus was not passed over, But let me tell you something – it is not over!

We've been passed over
But let me tell you that when Jesus died on that cross it was not all over
Oh tell yourself this over and over – that's it's not over – it's never over because of Jesus our Passover!
Whatever good you think is over in your life – dead and hopeless and lifeless and over – it's not over because of Jesus our Passover!
Because He came to turn over what's over and make all things new over; He gives you a do-over; And can do the ultimate make-over that will leave you praising Him over and over!
For He has been raised up over all that seems over and rules over all with all authority over heaven and over earth!
Because Jesus was not passed over!

We've been passed over
Because Jesus rose up from the dead and rules as King over death!
He rules as King over sin!
He rules as King over the grave!
He rules as King over Satan!
He rules as King over the world!
He rules as King over our flesh!
He rules as King over all His and your enemies!
He rules as King over all as the Christ Who is all in all!
All because He was not passed over!

We've been passed over
So now we live to tell about Christ our Passover Who was not passed over!
The same Holy Spirit that raised Him from the dead to rule and reign over all is dwelling in you!
He grants you power over death!
He grants you power over sin!
He grants you power over the grave!
He grants you power over Satan!
He grants you power over the world and the flesh!
He grants you power over all of your enemies so that you are more than conqueror through Him Who loves you!
Oh you've been passed over because our God so loved you that He gave His only begotten Son so that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life!
Oh, yes – we've been passed over!
Because Jesus, our Passover, was not passed over!
