The marriage supper of the lamb is a biblical picture of the joy-filled fellowship which awaits God’s people. In Revelation 19:6–9, we get a vision of a rejoicing heavenly multitude and the four reasons they overflow with praise to God on that occasion.

1. The Almighty God reigns! He has conquered every enemy. (1 Corinthians 15:54–57)

2. The marriage of the lamb, a glorious groom, is finally here! He loved us so much he paid for our sins. (John 1:29)

3. Christ’s Bride is ready! She has been given a beautiful garment of righteous deeds. (Ephesians 5:25–27)

4. The celebrants enter into an eternity of satisfaction and joy. (Psalm 16:11) The certainty of this feast is a great comfort! I have prayed that it will make us more excited about our union with Christ and encourage us toward greater faithfulness while we wait for Jesus to collect his Bride.
