"[Revelation2217] Marriage
Supper..."
Yesterday, I had invited everyone I could to come to
the marriage supper of the Lamb. I didn’t call it the
“marriage supper” because I wanted to see who was hungry enough to show
up.
Secondly, we have this mental picture in our heads of a lavish banquet
filled with the finest food from Heaven with the long tables each
perfectly set with the most expensive silver and gold platters with
matching dishware. I was a little bit concerned that if
people thought they were coming to the “marriage supper” and they
walked into the home hosting the “banquet” and see the 2 liter bottles
of pop with the red plastic cups… it would not be very convincing.
So what I did was invite everyone I could to come and “hear God
speak”. Since we as Christians seem to only hear God speak to our
heart when we are desperate, it seemed like a great platform to lead
people to hear God’s Voice every day of our lives. Who
wouldn’t want to have a valuable friend that actually carries on a
conversation with you all the time? And this personal
“friend” KNOWS EVERYTHING and is the Greatest Person in the
Universe? Kings and presidents would envy the person who is
personal friends with Him. His Words are GOLD. You can take
them to the BANK. Everything He touches becomes valuable beyond
imagination.
He personally furnished everything with the best that He had to
offer. The Bridegroom was ready.
No one showed up.
