📖 SONGS OF SONGS 7.
1 How beautiful are thy feet with shoes, O prince’s daughter! the joints of thy thighs are like jewels, the work of the hands of a cunning workman.
6 How fair and how pleasant art thou, O love, for delights!
10 I am my beloved’s, and his desire is toward me.
11 Come, my beloved, let us go forth into the field; let us lodge in the villages.
12 Let us get up early to the vineyards; let us see if the vine flourish, whether the tender grape appear, and the pomegranates bud forth: there will I give thee my loves.
Beloved, may the peace of God be unto you. The bride has been given a new name today “the Prince’s daughter”. The bride and groom loved each other and they went together to see if there are some fruits that are in bloom because the groom needs them. That is Christ in His church, they work together. Christ and you, work together for your salvation.
1️⃣ A NEW NAME (Songs 7:2)
📖 The king’s daughter is all glorious within: her clothing is of wrought gold. (Psalms:13)
📖 … “To him who overcomes I will give some of the hidden manna to eat. And I will give him a white stone, and on the stone a new name written which no one knows except him who receives it.” (Revelations 2:17)
➡️If you meet your Lover (Christ) and you accept Him and believe in His name, you get the power of being a child of God(John 1:12), and you become a priest in the everlasting kingdom (1Peter 2:9).
👉🏽Your relationship with Christ changes you, changes the church and those who see it say” O Prince’s daughter”.
May the Lord help us to be a real holy priesthood, and to receive a new name in glory.🙏
2️⃣THE GROOM NEEDS FRUITS (Songs 7:13,14)
📍 There is to be co-operation between God and the repentant sinner…. Man is to make earnest efforts to overcome that which hinders him from attaining to perfection. But he is wholly dependent upon God for success. Human effort of itself is not sufficient. Without the aid of divine power it avails nothing… On the one side there is infinite wisdom, compassion, and power; on the other, weakness, sinfulness, absolute helplessness. (AA 482.2)
➡️We are saved by grace only through faith, and live a life that strives to please God with Him. He says ”You can do nothing without me”(John 15:5).
👉🏽It is a problem to think that it is not necessary to live a life of obedience to God, it is equally dangerous thinking that you can obtain salvation by your deeds.
Surrender yourself to God, so He can lead your journey and He will bring it to completion.
🛐GOD, MAY WE OBTAIN A NEW NAME IN YOUR KINGDOM. HELP US TO COMPLETELY RELY ON YOU🙏
