The Song of Solomon
(The
Importance of the Song of Solomon in the End Times)
My
passion in life is to teach the Song of Solomon. The first major point in
the book is in verse two, "Let Him kiss me with the kisses of His
mouth". In the underlying love story this is the maiden crying
out for intimacy with her beloved bridegroom. In the overlying
allegory/type it is
any individual believer crying out for intimacy with the King, the Heavenly
Bridegroom. I tell people that when they read "Let Him kiss me
with the kisses of His mouth" think this: "Oh God, so touch my
heart as to increase my capacity to receive Your love and give you my love in
return. Bring my love
relationship with you to a whole new level.
In
Psalm Two it says: "Kiss the Son, lest He be angry, And you perish in
the way, When His wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all those who put
their trust in Him." In
July I heard Mike Bickle point out that when God starts pouring out the end-time
judgements only those who have "kissed the Son" are going to be
able to understand the motivation of love
behind the awful things that are going to occur as prophesied in
Revelation. To "kiss the Son" is explained in the
Song of Solomon. It will still be a personal decision to seek Him
whole-heartedly but the consequences of not doing so will be greater.
Those
who are not in an intimate love relationship with the Heavenly Bridegroom, the
Splendid Transcendent King, the Righteous Judge, will question God for the awful
things that are going to be poured out on the earth and mankind.
Some will challenge God. Some who have only a casual relationship
with Him may be tempted to blaspheme and find themselves under the anger of God.
"As
we keep praying the “Draw me . .”
prayer of Song 1:4 we will receive a bountiful supply of God's grace to
spend much time in the secret place with Him.
There we will learn that even when He acts as the Righteous Judge of
Revelation His motivation is love."
God
knows that the majority of mankind, if left to themselves will remain to
themselves. But
if He shakes everything that can be shaken, many will awaken out of spiritual
slumber and call on the Name of the Lord who otherwise would not.
"Let Him kiss me with
the kisses of His mouth!" This is a time to seek His face;
not just His blessings.
