DINING WITH THE ALMIGHTY


    BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Gen 10, Matt 10, Ezra 10, Acts 10

Revelations 3:20 behold I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me.

In Revelations 3:20, we see the Almighty God wanting to dine with us. Take for instance you are invited for a dinner. When you get to the house of your host, you look at the size of his house. The size of the house says a lot. If your host resides in a palace, he is probably a king or a prince. If he resides in a mansion, then he must one the high and mighty in the society. How big is the mansion of the Almighty? 1 Kings 8:27 says behold heaven and the heaven of heavens cannot contain Him. His accommodation is so large the heaven of heavens cannot contain Him. Not only that, present in this accommodation are many mansions, John 14:2. Then when you enter the house, the next thing you want to observe is the furniture. The furniture in the house of the high and mighty is not the same as the one in the house of ordinary citizen. Isaiah 66:1 describes the furniture of the Almighty. It says heaven is His throne and His foot stool is the earth. The next thing you want to observe in the house your host would be the electrical fitting. In the house of the Almighty, according to 1 Timothy 6:16, the place is so bright that the light becomes unapproachable. Not only that, His glory lights up the whole house, Revelations 21:23. The next thing you want to observe is how your host is dressed. If he is inviting you to diner that means he will be well dressed. How is the Almighty dressed? Psalm 93:1 says our God is clothed in majesty and strength. Psalm 104:1-2 says He is cloth in honor, majesty and light. When you enter His house and you see an estate of mansions, you see His furniture, His electrical fitting and the way He is dressed, you definitely know you are in for a good time. Then next thing you want to observe is the food on His table. On the table of the high and mighty, there will be plenty of various kind of food. Not only that, the food will be of high quality. What kind of food will you find on the table of the Almighty? Psalm 50:10-12 tells us of some of the kinds of meat you are likely to find on the table of the Most High. It also talks of the types of birds. The kind of bread you will find on the table will be bread of heaven, Psalm 78:24. The fruits there will be from the tree of life, Revelations 2:7. The drink will be heavenly wine, John 2:1-11. You might also want to know how good the cooks are because there could be the right ingredient but a bad a cook. According to Psalm 23:5, the one who prepared the food is God Himself. When you sit down to eat you want to pay attention to the waiters. The waiters are the angels, Hebrews 1:13- 14.

Why dine with the Almighty? A dinner with Almighty God is sufficient to change a man’s life forever. The Bread alone will restore health to every area of your health. Once you drink the wine, you become filled with the Holy Ghost. According to Acts 1:8, the wine turns an individual to a witness. A witness is someone who produces testimonial evidences. Once you drink of the wine your life will become full of testimony and you can now begin to produce testimonial evidences that Jesus is the Lord. What is the criterion to dine with the King of Kings? Who can ascend to the hills of the Almighty? Psalm 25:4 says He that hath clean hands, a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully.

PRAYER POINT: Father I want to daily dine you, please wash me today with the blood of Jesus.
