Wedding Clothes - Prepared As Christ's Bride


Tuesday, Dec 9, 2014

Inspired thots

I was awoken early this morning and the words "Wedding Clothes" kept coming to mind; so, without falling back to sleep again, I asked the Lord for the meaning of the revealed words. When we attend wedding dinners, we normally put on our best... to impress? sometimes even better than our Sunday best.

At Morning Watch Prayer, the Lord brought me to Matthew 22:1-14 "The Parable of the Wedding Banquet". The primary emphasis was in verse 11 where a man was ushered into the banquet but did not wear WEDDING CLOTHES. When questioned by the king (host), he was speechless. Thus, the king threw him out of the celebration.

We are the Bride of Christ; we must be prepared as His spotless and unblemished bride now before His coming again. We cannot be found without our wedding clothes; we have no excuse because we should already know. Little time is left for us to prepare as Christ's bride; we are invited by God into the feast...His kingdom... but would we deserve a seat?

v14 "For many are invited but few are chosen."
