THE KING'S INVITATION
Matthew 22:1-14
This passage tells us about a King whose son was wedding. Everything needed to make the occasion colourful were ready ( food, meat, drinks ) except the guests. Out of His compassionate heart, He sent His servants again to remind the invited guests to make haste, because everything was ready for the wedding . But they made light of it and went their ways and even murdered the king's servants. The King was angry and ordered for the destruction of the murderers.
Then, many who were not opportuned to be invited to the wedding were called. Unfortunately, a man was in the wedding but was not putting on the wedding garment. When the King came in to see His guests and probably to appreciate them, this man that was not wearing the wedding garment was singled out. He was bound and was cast into the outer darkness were men will weep and gnash their teeth.
Beloved, by the mercy of God, we are privileged to be alive to celebrate the birthday of the King's Son( our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ) today. Have you accepted the King's invitation or are you still given excuses? If you have accepted, are you wearing the birthday garment? Which is Righteousness and Holiness Hebrews 12:14, for without which no eye shall see the King. As the promise of His birth came to pass, so will the promise of His return be a reality one day. Jesus Christ is coming soonest, are you saved?My prayer, is that as we celebrate with Jesus Christ ,all the gifts available in this birthday will be our portion in Jesus name. Amen.
Merry Christmas and glorious New year full of evidence.
YOU ARE LIFTED FOR LIFE.
