The Bridegroom


The Bridegroom chooses who will sit with Him on His throne, as His Bride.
Our part is to make ourselves so desirable that we will be chosen in that day,
having made ourselves ready for the “marriage supper of the Lamb” (Revelation 19:7-8).
Just as a young woman anticipates her wedding day and prepares herself, so also,
the Bride of our Lord Jesus Christ is to prepare for this day.  She is to “clothe herself
in fine linen, clean and white.  This speaks of the “righteous acts of the saints
in which she actively faces and overcomes the problems and pressures of life.
It is the “overcomer” who will sit with Jesus in His Throne, as His Bride.


“To him who overcomes I will grant to sit with Me in My throne, even as I also overcame,
and have sat down with My Father in His throne.” Revelation 3:21
