“FOR YOUR HUSBAND IS YOUR MAKER, whose name is the LORD of hosts… “For the LORD has called you…even like a wife of one’s youth…” Says your God.” (Isaiah 54:5-6)

“Let us rejoice and be glad and give him glory! For THE WEDDING OF THE LAMB HAS COME, and his bride HAS MADE HERSELF READY. Then the angel said to me, “Write this: Blessed are those who are invited TO THE WEDDING SUPPER OF THE LAMB.” (Rev. 19:7, 9)
The great and glorious day will soon come, and nothing will compare to this awesome event! So, how will we prepare for this day?
“Fine linen, bright and clean, was given her to wear.” (Fine linen stands for THE RIGHTEOUS ACTS of God’s holy people.)” (Rev. 19:8)

“…KEEP 1WATCH, because you do not know the day or the hour.” (Matt. 25:13) 1grēgoreúō: be vigilant (responsible, watchful).
I PRAY THAT YOU, MAY HAVE POWER…TO GRASP HOW WIDE, LONG, HIGH AND DEEP IS THE LOVE OF CHRIST.
