Revelation 19:9
19:9 Then he said to me, "Write: 'Blessed are those who are called to the marriage supper of the Lamb!'"And he said to me, "These are the true sayings of God."
The marriage supper of the Lamb of God is the meeting of Jesus, Heavenly Bridegroom, with the perfect Church or the perfect Bride on glorious clouds when Jesus comes a second time.
It is also the perfect marriage between Jesus, Heavenly Bridegroom, with the perfect Church or His perfect Bride.
Afterward, we enter the kingdom of peace a thousand years, the next paradise, up to New Jerusalem, eternal heavenly kingdom.
Thus, we have to become heavenly bride in order to enter the marriage supper of the Lamb of God up to the heavenly kingdom.
Revelation 21:9
21:9. Then one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls filled with the seven last plagues came to me and talked with me, saying, "Come, I will show you the bride, the Lamb's wife."
God's Bride is also called the Lamb's wife because of being redeemed by the blood of the Lamb of God.
Revelation 5:9-10
5:9 And they sang a new song, saying: "You are worthy to take the scroll, And to open its seals; For You were slain, And have redeemed us to God by Your blood Out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation,
5:10 And have made us kings and priests to our God; And we shall reign on the earth."
The process of being the Lamb's wife is as follows:
Revelation 19:9
19:9 Then he said to me, "Write: 'Blessed are those who are called to the marriage supper of the Lamb!'"And he said to me, "These are the true sayings of God."
The marriage supper of the Lamb of God is the meeting of Jesus, Heavenly Bridegroom, with the perfect Church or the perfect Bride on glorious clouds when Jesus comes a second time.
It is also the perfect marriage between Jesus, Heavenly Bridegroom, with the perfect Church or His perfect Bride.
Afterward, we enter the kingdom of peace a thousand years, the next paradise, up to New Jerusalem, eternal heavenly kingdom.
Thus, we have to become heavenly bride in order to enter the marriage supper of the Lamb of God up to the heavenly kingdom.
Revelation 21:9
21:9. Then one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls filled with the seven last plagues came to me and talked with me, saying, "Come, I will show you the bride, the Lamb's wife."
God's Bride is also called the Lamb's wife because of being redeemed by the blood of the Lamb of God.
Revelation 5:9-10
5:9 And they sang a new song, saying: "You are worthy to take the scroll, And to open its seals; For You were slain, And have redeemed us to God by Your blood Out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation,
5:10 And have made us kings and priests to our God; And we shall reign on the earth."
The process of being the Lamb's wife is as follows:
- Being redeemed by the blood of the Lamb.
We must be redeemed of these three things:- Of nation or tribe.
Physically, we are the chosen people of God, it is not of nation or tribe. The nation and tribe also point to the world. In short, being redeemed of every nation and tribe means being redeemed of the world with all its influences. The world is full of amenities, sorrow, activities, et cetera, which make us unfaithful in doing service and ministry, so we become the enemy of God.
James 4:4
4:4 Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.
The proof of being redeemed by the Lamb's blood of the world and its influence is faithfulness in doing service and ministry. - Of people or family.
It means we are redeemed of flesh with all its lustswhich make us disobedient to the will of God.
Romans 8:6-7
8:6 For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.
8:7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be.
The proof of being redeemed by the Lamb's blood of the flesh and its lusts is obedience to God's Word, whatever risk may come. - Of tongue or language.
Meaning we are redeemed of sinbecause the most guilty part of our life is our tongue.
The proof of being redeemed by the Lamb's blood of the sins is honesty, there is no liebut saying 'yes' if 'yes' and 'no' if 'no.'
Revelation 5:10
5:10 And have made us kings and priests to our God;And we shall reign on the earth."
The faithful, obedient, and honest will be lifted up by God to become priests and kings. Priests and kings are those who have priest's offices and are employed by God in the ministry of building Christ's body.
The duty of the priests and kings is glorifying Godin every ministry, anywhere, anytime, and in any situation, so there are many people who get the blessings of God.
Isaiah 49:3-4
49:3 "And He said to me, 'You are My servant, O Israel, In whom I will be glorified.'
49:4 Then I said, 'I have labored in vain, I have spent my strength for nothing and in vain; Yet surely my just reward is with the LORD, And my work with my God.'"
If we can glorify God, our reward and work are in His hand. He will never fool us, He gives us the reward for our present life and the future one, up to the eternal one.
James 3:2
3:2 For we all stumble in many things. If anyone does not stumble in word, he is a perfect man, able also to bridle the whole body.
We have the redemption until we do not stumble in word but we are perfect as Jesus is, to become the Lamb's wife. - Of nation or tribe.
- Receiving the scroll, whose seal is open.
Revelation 5:9
5:9 And they sang a new song, saying: "You are worthy to take the scroll, And to open its seals; For You were slain, And have redeemed us to God by Your blood Out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation,
It equals toreceiving the revelation of God's Word, whose verse explains another verse in Bible.
Revelation 5:4-5
5:4 So I wept much, because no one was found worthy to open and read the scroll, or to look at it.
5:5 But one of the elders said to me, "Do not weep. Behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has prevailed to open the scrolland to loose its seven seals."
John was in Patmos which was desolated, so it was difficult to get food. He did not cry because there was nobody or any food there, but he cried to get the revelation of God's Word. Such is a right crying.
We have cried many times in the world, but only because of physical matters. Let us change our crying, that is crying to get the revelation of God's Word, because there will be the opening of way out from God,which is able to settle all problems making us cry,where there is the revelation of God's Word. The revelation of God's Word is able to stop all our crying until there is no more tear in New Jerusalem.
Only Jesus, the Lion of the tribe of Judah or the Root of David, is able to reveal the Word.
The revelation of God's Word relates to the Lion of the tribe of Judah, meaning the revelation of God's Word results in sanctification.
Amos 3:7-8
3:7 Surely the Lord GOD does nothing, Unless He reveals His secret to His servants the prophets.
3:8 A lion has roared! Who will not fear? The Lord GOD has spoken! Who can but prophesy?
The revelation of God's Word is the roaring of the Lion of the tribe of Judah or the prophetic Word as follows:- The Word revealing all matters which will happen in the last days, especially about Jesus' second coming.
All we get in the world will be vain even destroyed if we are left when Jesus comes a second time. - The Word showing us our hidden sins that other people do not know, even we ourselves do not realize the sins.
Hosea 5:13-14
5:13"When Ephraim saw his sickness, And Judah saw his wound, Then Ephraim went to Assyria And sent to King Jareb; Yet he cannot cure you, Nor heal you of your wound.
5:14 For I will be like a lion to Ephraim, And like a young lion to the house of Judah. I, even I, will tear them and go away; I will take them away, and no one shall rescue.
The prophetic Word is as the Lion of the tribe of Judah that pounces on to destroy the wound of sins or sin cancer bringing perdition. Many times we do not realize that we have sinned until our spirituality has been dry.
2 Timothy 2:16-18
2:16 But shun profane and idle babblings, for they will increase to more ungodliness.
2:17 And their message will spread like cancer. Hymenaeus and Philetus are of this sort,
2:18 who have strayed concerning the truth, saying that the resurrection is already past; and they overthrow the faith of some.
It begins with mouth cancer, meaning vain words, gossips none can be responsible of the truth. This cancer hits the weak part of body. Do not say anything that makes the faith of other people weak. Check when you are disturbed by hearing something, do not hear only from one side!
Mark 7:21-23
7:21 "For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,
7:22 "thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lewdness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness.
7:23 "All these evil things come from within and defile a man."
We also have to be sanctified from heart cancer. It can happen in the form of foolishness, namely one cannot be advised, and it means s/he is near to Babel.
In addition, there is womb cancer(a woman with the flow of blood for twelve years), meaning one who causes divisons in marriage, shepherding, and fellowship.
One who causes divisons means as follows:- One who mocks the true teaching Word because of seeking the flesh lusts.
Jude 1:18-19
1:18 how they told you that there would be mockers in the last time who would walk according to their own ungodly lusts.
1:19 These are sensual persons, who cause divisions, not having the Spirit. - One who teaches other doctrine which is different with the doctrine we have received. We have to avoid him/her.
Romans 16:17
16:17. Now I urge you, brethren, note those who cause divisions and offenses, contrary to the doctrine which you learned, and avoid them.
It is only the true teaching Word can unite the body of Christ. No human can unite the body of Christ.
- One who mocks the true teaching Word because of seeking the flesh lusts.
We have to be sanctified from all sins until we are united as the one perfect body of Christ.
The revelation of God's Word relates to the Root of David, meaning the revelation of God's Word results in life renewal from hard heart to meek one.
Matthew 24:32
24:32."Now learn this parable from the fig tree: When its branch has already become tender and puts forth leaves, you know that summer is near.
We have to learn to fig tree. The branch has been hard for four thousand years so there is no fruit. Be alert! Do not keep the hardness of heart. Not yielding fruit means having total failure or being failed about the teaching because of mixing the teaching, or being failed in marriage and ministry. The total failure happens until there is curse in life.
Why does the failure happen?- It is because of the hardness of heart, so there are leaves only, no fruit.
- It is because of disobedience to the true teaching Word and rejection or resist to it.
- It is because of self-truth or covering sin by blaming other people and God.
The hardest condition of a human is real through his/her disobedience and self-truth when s/he is in failure.
For example, the transgressor crucified beside Jesus. He was cursed and failed absolutely, but he still mocked Jesus. But the other transgressor was touched by the blood of Jesus, so he could learn to the fig tree to be meek.
Luke 23:40-41
23:40 But the other, answering, rebuked him, saying, "Do you not even fear God, seeing you are under the same condemnation?
23:41 "And we indeed justly, for we receive the due reward of our deeds; but this Man has done nothing wrong."
Such life wants to receive the blood of Jesus through being meek, that is to say being obedient to the true teaching and daring to confess all faults and failures.
Ezekiel 36:26-27
36:26 "Moreover I will make a covenant of peace with them, and it shall be an everlasting covenant with them; I will establish them and multiply them, and I will set My sanctuary in their midst forevermore.
37:27 "My tabernacle also shall be with them; indeed I will be their God, and they shall be My people.
We have new heart. God becomes our God, and we become His people, meaning we are not separated with Him, and we live in His mighty hand, which is able to replace the curse and failure with the ambience of paradise.
The result is as follows:- The mighty hand of God delivers us from all problems and the slavery of sin, even from the impossible problem.
Leviticus 26:12-13
26:12 I will walk among you and be your God, and you shall be My people.
26:13 I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, that you should not be their slaves; I have broken the bands of your yoke and made you walk upright. - The mighty hand of God is able to bless us up to our descendants.
Ezekiel 37:26-27
37:26 "Moreover I will make a covenant of peace with them, and it shall be an everlasting covenant with them; I will establish them and multiply them, and I will set My sanctuary in their midst forevermore.
37:27 "My tabernacle also shall be with them; indeed I will be their God, and they shall be My people. - The mighty hand of God is able to wipe away every tear and to give us joy, beautiful joyful future life, until there is no tear in New Jerusalem.
Revelation 21:3-4
21:3 And I heard a loud voice from heaven saying, "Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people. God Himself will be with them and be their God.
21:4 "And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away."
To become God's Bride is through being meek. - The Word revealing all matters which will happen in the last days, especially about Jesus' second coming.
