Blessings at God's Table

"You prepare a meal for me in front of my enemies." Psalm 23:5

Pause and envision the scene in (God's) royal dining room . . .

Driven not by our beauty but by His promise, He calls us to Himself and invites us to take a permanent place at His table . . . We take our place next to the other sinners-made-saints and we share in God's glory.

May I share a partial list of what awaits you at His table?

You are beyond condemnation (Romans 8:1)
You are a member of His kingdom (Col. 1:13)
You have been adopted (Romans 8:15)
You have access to God at any moment (Eph. 2:18)
You will never be abandoned (Heb. 13:5)
You have an imperishable inheritance (I Peter 1:4)

In The Grip of Grace
