THE TABLE:
The table is a symbol of family, community, and faithful presence. It's a symbol of our deep desire to be known and be loved. It's a symbol that we see throughout Scripture as a place where God dwells with and provides for his people. God sets a table for us and joins us around it. The table represents Communion in the Bible. The table is union and unity in Christ
And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, blessed and broke it, and gave it to them and said, “Take, eat; this is My body.”
ENCOURAGE YOU TO
GET TO THE TABLE AND STAY AT THE TABLE TO RECEIVE THE FULLNESS OF CHRIST
I’M HERE FOR ALL OF HIM!
And of His fullness we have all received, and grace for grace.
DO NOT LEAVE HUNGRY
TRANSFORMATION NOT ENTERTAINMENT

Behold, how good and how pleasant it is For brethren to dwell together in unity!
It is like the precious oil upon the head, Running down on the beard, The beard of Aaron, Running down on the edge of his garments.
It is like the dew of Hermon, Descending upon the mountains of Zion; For there the Lord commanded the blessing— Life forevermore.
IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO BE ONE IN CHRIST AND SEPARATE FROM ONE ANOTHER
DIVISION COMES FROM LEAVING THE TABLE.
that they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that You sent Me.
DIVISION DIMINISHES THE POWER OF THE ANOINTING.
