The Huppah Children

Monday, March 4, 2024

In the Gospels, we're called friends of the bridegroom. That Greek term means children of the bridal chamber, which is a translation of the Hebrew idiom Bnei HaChuppah, meaning children of the huppah. Huppah is the wedding canopy over the bride and groom. The children of the huppah are those who are closest to the bridegroom. If you're born again, you're a child of the huppah, one who is close to the bridegroom. Most bridegrooms are joyfully looking forward to the wedding. The closer you get to them, the more joy, excitement, and blessing you have. There are many believers who claim to be close to Messiah, but they don't have joy or excitement. The true children of the huppah are those believers who are filled with joy, love, and excitement. If you find that lately you don't have a lot of joy, get your eyes off yourself and get close to the Bridegroom. When you get really close to the Bridegroom, you won't be able to hold back the joy, love, and excitement of the Bridegroom. It will fill your heart and life as a child of the huppah.
