Description
See who the kingdom is for? Who has been made joint heirs with Christ? In Luke 12:32, Jesus tells us, “… your Father has been pleased to give you the kingdom.”
David was someone who knew (most of the time) that God was for him. Look at Psalm 23: “You set a table before me in the presence of my enemies.” David understood that God’s table was set for him, not to be a servant, but to sit down and eat. The Song of Songs as well shows us God’s passion for us and His desire to bless us. You see, it – that is, everything – is for us.
If we fail to grasp this truth, that the Good News of the Kingdom is all about good news for us, that the Father loves us and truly wants to give us everything He has, then we’ve missed it. At that point, we’ve got nothing. We can work and work and serve till the cows come home, but like the elder son, it benefits us not. The Father’s banquet table is prepared for us, but we have to be willing to say “this is for me” and sit down at the banquet table and eat. If we don’t, we starve, and we have nothing to share with others, either.
