Are You Dressed For the Occasion?
when you plan a special event there are only so many seats at the banquet tables
you can't possibly invite everyone in life you know even if you're financially able
only so many can be invited and chosen are the few
and they should be dressed for the occasion in order to celebrate with you
in the Bible a King sent a select few a special invitation
yet in the midst was a person who wasn't dressed for the occasion
that is similar in the way that some respond to the invitation from God
not spiritually dressed to celebrate with Him with a righteousness of heart
God has invited each of us to his spiritual feast
and all He desires is that we come properly dressed to say the least
for its by the blood of Christ that we've been given an open invitation
yet there are those who try to attend with their own set of stipulations
but in order to be in the presence of God one needs to properly dressed
wearing the virtues of God, dressed in order to be blessed
kindness, love, righteousness, patience and serenity
forgiveness, compassion, peace and most of all humility
to be spotless in God's sight now ready to live life right
with a willingness to obey dressed in a godly way
are you dressed for the occasion? are you properly dressed to meet the Lord Christ?
are you dressed for the occasion to accept the greatest invitation in life?
