Dear Pamela, I too believe that The Lord intends to reveal this book to His Bride in a living way, and it is so exciting because the great theme of this book is the Love of Christ. The Bridegroom and the bride are figures frequently used by the prophets in scripture to set forth this relationship. The Lord speaking through Isaiah says ” As the Bridegroom rejoices over His Bride, so will your God rejoice over you”. And through Hosea He says” I will allure her and bring her into wilderness and speak to her heart” and when her affections are awakened He can say to her ” I will betrothe you unto Me forever” ” I will betrothe you unto Me in righteousness, and in judgement, and in loving kindness and in mercies. I will betrothed you unto Me in faithfulness, and you shall know The Lord”. Hosea ( 2:14, 19, 20). In the Song of Songs there are this very wilderness experiences wherein The Lord speaks to the heart of His own. But while prophets are mainly concerned with the excercise of conscience, to bring the godly remnant to repentance, this book goes further and speaks of the excercise of the heart, and the awakening of the affections of the bride, by unfolding Christ’s devoted love, and the sweet affections He kindles in the heart of His own. There are many songs throughout scripture, songs that celebrate creation, songs of victory, songs of praise and thanksgiving, but this song is called The Song of Songs.
Thanks for the full listing. Will check the posts. Looking forward to the conversation.
Love!

In reply to Marsela Sava.

Dear Marsela, I am so glad that you have been led to this book as well. I believe the Lord intends to bring this book alive to His Bride in the last days, in a way that has not previously been understood relationally under the old paradigms of religion and law.

As far as the first post in the conversation, I recently put all the posts in numerical order of posting. Under the SOS menu above, there is a new page titled “Full listing…”

I look forward to hearing from you often. And thank you for sharing the riches below.

Love!

Looks like you have started a series on Song of Songs, and I was trying to find the beginning of this conversation, as The Lord had lead me to it recently as well, and became interested on your take, and I appreciate it. I have come to see this song as the believer’s heart journey into the high calling of love and intimacy with The Lord.
So when I read the first verses, as we hear the voice of the bride speaking, I see her words express the ardent longing of her heart for a pledge of the Bridegroom’s love. This to me are the words of one who has been attracted by the Bridegroom, and longs for, yet lacks the assurance of his personal love. ” Let Him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth”, latter she will be assured, for she says ” His left hand is under my head, and his right hand does embrace me”. The preciousness of His Love and the excellence of His name, creates not only longing for the assurance of His love, but also the desire for His company” Draw me away”. I see so much of my own heart’s journey in this song, and I’m sure we all do. Thanks for starting this conversation, hope will tune in for your follow up posts.

“When we enter the door of His death, we enter the chambers of intimacy. For that reason, we do not do the Lord’s work until we have been there, and know how to stay there long enough”

to ‘taste’ His wine is the death to our wine, and the death to us, in order to become One in Him, and a new ‘Us’

Jesus is my Hero, my Knight in shining armor! He rescued me so that I would know of His great love for me. He rescued me so that I could tell others of His great love for them. His love is deeper, wider, longer & higher than any mind can imagine. It multiplies, it increases & it goes on forever. Paraphrasing what Beth Moore once said. ‘I love my husband very much & I don’t want any other woman to love him like I do. I love Jesus even more than I love my husband, & I want every person to fall in love with Him at least as much as I have.’

to taste the Love of all Life, to have this ‘new wine’ in our ‘new wine skins’ is the breath of Life. and this is the true ‘sleeping beauty’ story, He awakens us to His Love, and everything is new

In reply to Pamela. You all are just a bunch of love junkies, your hearts have been opened by a word that has sliced into the fabric of your heart and you are all being sewn with love songs into a beautiful tapestry that looks like Jesus — keep the conversation going. Lovingly Judy Trumpet
