As I looked in the spirit, I smelt the comforting smell of hot, crispy potato skins and felt the warmth of a fire. The sound of knocking echoed from a door I could see. Who would dare knock? Who could possibly wish to interrupt me?
I opened the door slowly to see my Father in heaven, His hand extended out to mine. He passed me an empty plate, and walked in. He sat at the table opposite me and looked deep into my eyes. Although no words were exchanged, I knew in that moment that I was loved, forgiven and cherished. His smile towards me extinguished any doubt I’d ever had. It was His company that I longed for.
The Spirit of the Lord says:
You think you have found comfort in the warmth of your fires, in the food you eat and in the rituals you take part in. But I, the Lord, am coming to interrupt what you think you need. For none of these things will sustain you. I am inviting you to sit in My forgiveness. Taste what it is to be loved and cherished. See that I delight in you. Come, let us eat together and make plans for the days to come.
Activation:
Ask the Lord to show you anything in your life that is distracting you and pulling your attention away from feasting with Him. Respond to the Lord knocking at your heart and sit with Him today.
Behold, I stand at the door [of the church] and continually knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with him (restore him), and he with Me.
Revelation 3:20 (NIV)
