COMPEL THEM TO COME

“Compel them to come”
Put your feet under His table, the banquet has been prepared; no other table can be compared!
Come one, come all unto the marriage supper of the crucified Lamb,
A feast that is fit only for priest and kings, which was made ready by the very hand of the great I AM!
Wash your garments in His righteous blood and dress yourself in your new wedding clothes,
“Enter into His gates with thanksgiving and enter into His courts with praise,”
“Come before His presence with shouts of joy and singing, making a joyful noise unto Him”
He is the lifter of our heads, come and partake of His holy and sanctified spread!
He has made away for the weak, the weary, and the wayfaring man,
Come and feast at His table, rejoicing in His redemptive plan!
Don’t be troubled by the trouble of the day, just humble yourself and pray,
He will hear from His pavilion and send an angel swiftly,
Removing the cause of all your doubt, purging your mind of all its fear and iffy!
Come to Him that was dead, but He is yet alive,
He has prepared His table before you that you may survive!
Nourish yourself at His expense, for He has fully paid the price, an innocent lamb, the perfect sacrifice!
He is risen, ever sitting on the right hand of God the Father, making intercession for us,
Whispering our names in our weakest moment, professing His love, this is salvation’s only true component!
“Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.”
“Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.”
“For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”

A good bit of advice from scripture about life.
Up on reading for the first time I was prompted by my conscience to say that His table is open to all, not just priests and kings but, having read more, I realised that because of his atonement for our sins we are all subject to His offer and thus become welcome guests at Supper no matter who we are and with what past. |
