Jesus Wants to Dine with You
“Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me.”
Revelation 3:20

Ponder This
Being saved is not about a penalty you pay to get to Heaven. When I invite you to come to Jesus, I’m not inviting you to a funeral; I’m inviting you to a feast. Jesus is saying, “Come and dine. Come and dine.” He says, “I’ll come in as the guest, and then I’ll become the host.” Jesus bids you to come and have fellowship with Him.
First, you put faith in Jesus. Then you have freedom through Jesus and fellowship with Jesus. Are you having that fellowship? I can tell you Jesus is as real to me as a person sitting in the same room with me. I don’t see Him, but Jesus is a friend. And I feast with Him and fellowship with Him. The devil wants to get you thinking negatively about God. God is good all the time, and He’s saying to you, “Come and dine.”
- When have you thought negatively about God or had a hard time experiencing fellowship with Him?
- How does it change your perspective to remember Jesus is inviting you to His feast?
Practice This

Real Truth Never Changes
Real truth never changes, and the truth about government is that it is God who ordains it, leaders who are responsible for it, and citizens who are accountable to it. The privilege of being called Americans comes with significant responsibilities—to God, to each other, and to the world.
