SESSION 13 : Song Of Songs Chapter 5:9-16 (TPT)



          If  we  do  this,  we  will  discover  His  pure,  unconditional  love,  His

          preeminence in all things, and the mantle of unsurpassed power and
          authority which He carries with dignified humility as the King of Kings

          and Lord of Lords.

          In the Passion Translation, it states that on His head, the Bridegroom is

          wearing a crown with black letters written upon it. I found this verse

          particularly interesting because, according to Rabbinic tradition, these
          letters represent the words of the Torah. This interpretation reminded

          me of the importance of allowing the Word of God to dwell richly
          within us.


          Colossians 3:16 (TPT) says:

          “Let  the  word  of  Christ  live  in  you  richly,  flooding  you  with  all

          wisdom…”


          This is absolutely essential if we are going to be overcomers in the last
          days. These words are life-giving and never return void as we declare

          them over others, situations, and ourselves. Interestingly, as Isaiah 55
          continues, it says in verses 10–11 (NIV):


          “As the rain and the snow come down from heaven, and do not return

          to it without watering the earth and making it bud and flourish, so that
          it  yields  seed  for  the  sower  and  bread  for  the  eater,

          so is the word that goes forth from my mouth; It will not return to me
          empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for

          which I sent it.”
