The Banquet
I�ve been invited to a banquet
With my Savior, Lord and King
All that�s needed is provided,
I don�t have to bring a thing.
When Jesus said, �Come and dine,�
I agreed to accept His call;
But some friends came with me
As I went to the dining hall.
When we sat down at His table,
My old pride pulled up a chair,
No invitation had been made
Yet vanity didn�t seem to care.
Along with pride came my will,
I never thought he would show
And as others tried to enter,
I knew they would have to go.
Jesus rises from His seat
And with all authority attests,
�This banquet is just for two
So outside with all the rest.
�This is a private appointment,
Just between My child and Me.
When the two of us are together
There is no need to make it three.
�We are going to talk about life
And the steps along the way,
The need to follow directions
To accomplish My work each day.�
There are some warnings needed
The great danger that is near,
And the power of the Spirit
That helps me not to fear.
Through each dinner course
I am nourished deep within,
His love so clearly displayed
As He cleanses me from sin.
What a privilege to partake of
This divine heavenly repast;
Yet when invited to come each day,
All too often I choose to fast.
Have you deserted this banquet,
A spiritual feast with the King,
Malnourished on the inside
And weakened in everything?
Think on the things of His word,
And develop a hunger down deep.
Dinner is served in the palace,
And you have an appointment to keep.

- 11 - - And Haman told them of the glory of his riches, and the multitude of his children, and all the things wherein the king had promoted him, and how he had advanced him above the princes and servants of the king.
- 12 - - Haman said moreover, Yea, Estther the queen did let no man come in with the king unto the banquet that she had prepared but myself; and to morrow am I invited unto her also with the king.
- 13 - - Yet all this availeth me nothhing, so long as I see Mordecai the Jew sitting at the king's gate.
