we are called to be the bride of christ
"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. To him who
overcomes I will grant to sit with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and
sat down with My Father on His throne" — Revelation 3:20-21, NKJV
The bride of Christ has a desire to be great, noble, and successful. This
deep human longing is answered by God as He enthrones us as His bridal
partner throughout eternity. As the bride of Christ we have the highest
position of honor and authority in eternity, a position far above all the
angels. The highest position of honor for all of God's creation is reserved
for the bride who will partake of the wedding table of Revelation 3:20. The
bride who sits at the table feasting with Christ is the one who sits with Him
in the position of government and authority as well. The bride of Christ is
the queen of heaven because she is married to the King of kings. Believers
are priest and kings. As priests we are wholehearted lovers, but as kings we
are indeed in the government of the city of God.
*PRAYER *
Lord, Your desire for me to be Your bride satisfies the deep longing of my
heart to be great, noble, and successful. I am great in You and will rule and
reign with You in glory forever.
*Greatness in God is not defined by earthly
circumstances—greatness in God focuses upon His greatness.*
