Then he said to me, “Write: ‘Blessed are those who are called to the marriage supper of the Lamb!’ ” And he said to me, “These are the true sayings of God.”
Revelation 19:9
In Revelation 19:9, a heavenly voice invites us to the grandest of all celebrations—the marriage supper of the Lamb. This scene paints a picture of joy, honor, and union with our Lord, Jesus Christ. Just as a wedding feast symbolizes the union of two hearts, this supper symbolizes our eternal union with the Lamb of God.
The invitation to this banquet is a mark of divine favor and grace. As believers, we are the invited guests. We are called by God’s love to share in the culmination of His redemptive plan. Our response should be one of awe and gratitude, recognizing the privilege we have to be part of this eternal celebration.
As you journey through life today, remember that your earthly struggles are temporary, and they pale in comparison to the glory that awaits us at the marriage supper of the Lamb. Let this anticipation fill your heart and mind with hope, and inspire your faith.
Are you thankful for the free gift of salvation? Are you looking forward to this wonderful celebration?
Pray
Lord, thank You for inviting me to the marriage supper of the Lamb. May the anticipation of this glorious event fill me with hope and strengthen my faith. Help me be reminded that my earthly trials are nothing compared to the eternal joy that awaits me. In Jesus’ name, amen.
