"Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over" (Psalm 23:5).
Of all the wonderful promises God gives us in the 23rd Psalm, this is one of the most glorious. Think of what he is pledging to do for us here: He says he's going to set a table for us, spread wonderful food upon it, then put on a waiter's apron and serve us a feast. And he does all of this in front of our enemies.
Now, we know when God says he's catering, the dinner won't be just any ordinary meal. The word for table in this verse means "spread." God isn't speaking of just a little plate of food. He's talking about a vast spread of goods - a massive feast. He sets before us row upon row of delightful heavenly foods, for us to taste and eat.
And there is only one guest at this meal - you. God does this wondrous work of preparing, waiting and serving for every individual who loves Jesus and calls himself by his name.
