The Table is Set

See this content in the original post

Good morning, afternoon or evening to you! Depending on when you are finding the time to tune in I welcome you today and thank you for joining me! It is my aim to encourage you today in the grace Jesus gives and remind you of His marvelous love and faithfulness in some way.

Years ago when learning to grill my son in law picked out some ground meat from the store for hamburgers and very lovingly cooked for the family. Several who ate that day got food poisoning due to some of the meat being bad. My son in law was well intentioned but he lacked experience. It took a while for some to desire a hamburger off the grill after that. It was a nice table that had been set for everyone but the memory that lives on is not one of having had a great meal. We have had meals off his grill since then but it took time for that to happen.

Now unlike the table my son in law set that day the table Jesus sets for us is always set with good things, you will never get food poisoning at the table Jesus sets. There are no bad or evil things at His table.

But He does set a table for us in the presence of our enemies. He wants them to watch as He faithfully cares for us and provides us with good things. It is like rubbing salt in the their wounds reminding them of Christ victory over them. This was prophecy spoken about Jesus in the Psalms.

Psalms 23:5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; My cup runs over.

Jesus is still doing this through us so that it is never forgotten that He is favored by the Father and has passed that favor on to us. When we get this by revelation of the Holy Spirit we begin to walk in an awareness of His willingness to give us good things as needed. Things like healing and provision. When our faith in Him and His willingness is awaken d it peels back the veil that was trying to hide the fact that heaven is opened to us and the goodness of God is ours for the receiving.

You are loved today and always by your faithful gracious Heavenly Father. By coming to His Son Jesus in faith to be forgiven and made alive you became His child supernaturally and He is for you not against you. He can heal you just as easily as He forgave you and made you righteous. It is by the same means, it is a gift and it works on the basis of faith.

So I speak healing to you today in His marvelous name. I declare that He is not only able to heal you, He is willing. Go and have a blessed day today in His name and always. His grace and peace be with you.
