Jesus is expecting us to continue at our post of assignment. The army had a general order, “I will guard my post until I am properly relieved.” Jesus, the Lord of the Servants, commands us to be waiting for him to return to the House of the Ruler. We are to be waiting for His return FROM the wedding not FOR the wedding at the door so we can let Him in immediately. He will come at the mid-night hour most likely between the Second or Third Watch when most people are sleeping and have become tired of waiting. He will reward those who stay at their post waiting and anticipating He arrival. He promises to sit his stewards at the table of honor where the Ruler has His guests and He will feed us meat. Jesus will serve us after we show our faithfulness toward Him upon His arrival.
Those who are foolish and disobey the will or the Lord of the Servants will be punished and judged harshly. Let’s be prepared. Let’s prepare ourselves to be equipped and willing to stand and be vigilant for His return.
