OUR FATHER COUNSELS HUMILITY

Luke chapter 14 verse 9 says this;

If so, the host who invited both of you will come and say to you, ‘Give this person your seat.’ Then, humiliated, you will have to take the least important place. 

This verse tells of the humiliation that a person would feel if they assigned themselves to a prominent place at a social gathering and a more distinguished guest arrived. The person would have to asked by the host to move out of the seat they had chosen to make room for the more distinguished person.

At the marriage supper of the Lamb, as the Lord's people arrive, we are counselled to assign ourselves to humble seating places at the tables to avoid the humiliation of over-estimated our placement at the Lord's table and having to be directed to lower stations.

This event in heaven will cause the saints to be self-aware and cogniscent of their standing and stature before the Lord

Amen.
