January 31, 2023: The Lord’s Table Is Your Invitation

“And the angel said to me, “Write this: Blessed are those who are invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb.” And he said to me, “These are the true words of God.” (Revelation 19:9, ESV)

If you are participating in the Lord’s Table, most likely, you have given your heart to Jesus. But I would venture to say most people have never thought about the Marriage Supper of the Lamb as connected to communion.  

Chapter 19 of our text explodes with one of the greatest crescendos of worship the Bible has ever seen! The place: The Marriage Supper of the Lamb. Gathering are the Saints from all nations and all backgrounds for one purpose: to celebrate the King of Kings and Lord of Lords!!! The banquet hall is filled to capacity! The people talking was like the roar of a great waterfall! Suddenly! Bright flashes of lightning, loud peals of thunder. Then the Lamb appears, and all of heaven breaks out in song:

“Then I heard what seemed to be the voice of a great multitude, like the roar of many waters and like the sound of mighty peals of thunder, crying out, “Hallelujah! For the Lord our God, the Almighty, reigns. Let us rejoice and exult and give him the glory, for the marriage of the Lamb has come, and his Bride has made herself ready; it was granted her to clothe herself with fine linen, bright and pure”— for the fine linen is the righteous deeds of the saints.” (Revelation 19:6–8, ESV)

​Because you are celebrating communion, The Lord’s Table has become your invitation. Enter in good and faithful servant!
