You Shall Prepare a Table in the Presence of My Enemies
This week’s Devotional Topic
At the point here in the 5th verse of the 23rd Psalm, David’s mind seems to be lingering in the high country with the sheep. This is new land, so the shepherd must be careful. Ideally, the grazing area will be flat, a mesa or tableland. The shepherd searches for poisonous plants and ample water.
What if your Shepherd did for you what the shepherd did for his flock? Suppose he dealt with your enemy, the devil, and prepared for you a safe place of nourishment. You see, he has called us to himself and invited us to take a permanent place at his table. When we take our place to the other sinners – made saints — we share in God’s glory. You possess every spiritual blessing possible. This is the gift offered to the lowest sinner on earth! “In Christ, God has given us every spiritual blessing in the heavenly world.” (Eph. 1:3)
This week’s Scripture: 1 Chronicles 16:8-36 (NIV)
