Part 8 Song of Songs – Deep Call unto Deep

As a Bride of Christ we have rivers of Living Water (Alive waters in the inside of us – The Holy Spirit), that runs in us and we should release it to overflow into our brethen and loved ones so that in all things God can be glorified.

Now that the Bride is fruitful she lets her devotion to Christ slumber (Cares of this world) See Math 13:22, where Jesus explains the parable of the seed among the thorns.  We sometimes change our focus to the cares of this world and gets distracted from the Presence and Intimacy of our Bridegroom Jesus Christ.

Despite our distraction, our Bridegroom is pleading with us to refocus on Him.  Let us be the seed that produces hundredfold, sixty or thirty fold.

In Songs 5:3, the Bride is confirming that she has already given her life to Him (Remember in Song of Songs 5:2 her heart for Him stayed awake).

Her heart was still towards Him and she is aware that she is His Righteousness.

She knows that He has purified her and has been with with her during her journey of life.

It is almost as if she is saying, what more can I do or give for my Bridegroom, what more is there for me?  What more does He desire from me?

Her heart is open towards Him and her soul is overcome when He speaks to her (She knows His Voice).

She opens her heart and surrendered more to Him (She arose from her slumber to be with her Bridegroom), to His Presence (His Fragrance, His Suffering Love in gentleness, like tears from a tree [Myrrh]).

Bride of Christ to receive more of Your Bridegroom, if you are longing for Him and wants to sense His Fragrance, is to let go and let Him be your all (Surrendering every circumstance/decision in life to Him – It is not I who live, but Christ who lives in me).

He is a Gentleman towards you.

As the Bride was surrendering to Him and gives Him access to her thoughts and emotions (Soul), she experienced feelings of loss and despair, sensing (In error – Perhaps she needs to grow more closer to Him – Journey with Christ) that He has left her.

She realised how important He is to her (Above all things) and started seeking Him in Spirit and in Truth.

This depicts the Bride of Christ running in all directions, seeking His Face as He is her true love.

Here it reminds us that sometimes when we have experienced Him and then felt like He has left, we in panic runs to various churches and seminars to try and locate Him (Imagining that He could be found in theory), not realising He wants personal intimacy and abides in her.

The Bride cannot afford to let her feelings or emotions rule over her and she needs to stand on the written Word of God that is alive.  

It is written that He will never leave her or forsake her.

If you perhaps feel different, seek His Face in your prayer time (Prayer Closet) and He will be found.

He is always true to His Word.  His Word is established already what is written and cannot return void.  War in His Word for your promises in your prayer closet.

It is a tragedy that the Bride who tries to find her Lover in buildings will not find Him there.  She needs to find Him in her heart.

Sometimes believers gets deeply hurt and wounded by the overseers.  Remember Brides, if a overseer ex- communicate you, you are still in Him.  You are His Beloved (Joined with Him).

The Bride longs to find Her Beloved and is seeking for His Gentleness towards her.

She feels ashamed, when her covering is removed.

Let us be sensitive to the cries of our Brides and Brides-to-be and show them the only Way to our Beloved (Seek His Face and know His Voice).

Brides of Christ and Brides-to-be, remember your covering is Jesus (In Him you have all things pertaining to life and godliness) your Bridegroom and in Him, you are more than enough, more than a conqueror.

What amazing Love that the Creator first loved you.

Established Already, paid for and settled, you in Him.

Be awake to the schemes and plans of the enemy who is running to and fro seeking whom he can devour (You are hid in Christ, if you stay in Him).

Remember Your Bridegroom, the Roaring Lion of Judah, He roars over you.

You are His beloved, look steadfast to Christ, the finisher of your faith as you endure all trails and travails for Him (Songs 5:8).  In this world you will have tribulation, but take heart, He has overcome this world and you in Him too, when you awake to your identity and to His righteousnessin you.

The Bride made up her mind and will not be turned aside by any other forces in life, nothing can convince her otherwise.
