7 Let us be glad and rejoice and give Him glory, for athe marriage of the Lamb has come, and His wife has made herself ready.”

Commentaries:
No entry exists in Forerunner Commentary for Revelation 19:4.
Revelation 19:1-8
Brethren, this is the bride of Christ that has done whatever it takes under the direction of the Bridegroom to be fully ready when Christ returns. He has supplied all the fine garments to be worn by His bride. The bride has carefully participated in the preparation to be the fulfilling and perfect helpmate of Jesus Christ within all that He could provide.
Although Revelation 19:7 tells us the bride has made herself ready, verse 8 shows us it is only through the humble cooperative effort with Jesus Christ, who supplies everything we need to finish the training of perfection, that this will be an accomplished end.
