DEC 31

Matthew 22:1-14
Memorise Revelation 19:7-9
“the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready”

You know, there is a great wedding dinner coming! It is great because it is going to be the wedding dinner of the King—a royal banquet. This banquet is not only going to be great, it will be the greatest because it is the banquet of no ordinary king, but the King of kings, and Lord of lords, and the Prince of princes. And do you know what? You are invited!

Where will this wedding dinner be? Which restaurant? Well, it will be in heaven. Name of the restaurant? I call it the Heavenly Restaurant of the New Jerusalem. When will it take place? It will take place when the Lord Jesus Christ returns to receive His bride.

In Revelation 19:7-9, we have a glimpse of the marriage supper of the lamb: “Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready. And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of the saints. And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God”.

Our Saviour-King is coming back real soon. The wedding dinner is about to begin. All must be punctual because the bridegroom will come on time. Latecomers will not be entertained. You must book your seats. Your name must be in the book of life. You must get your wedding garment—the bride cannot appear without her robe of righteousness.

Do you have this robe of the righteousness of Christ? If you trust in the Lord Jesus Christ and accept Him as your Lord and Saviour, He will give you this precious robe lovingly and freely.

Thought: Read the Lord’s invitation in Revelation 3:20.

Prayer: Lord, clothe me with Thy robe of righteousness, clean and white, so that I might be ready for that great wedding day in heaven
