My Dearly beloved brothers and sisters in Christ, I greet and bless you all in the Name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. On this day on April 3rd it is a great pleasure to meet you all at your home early in the morning through this auspicious message. May the Lord bless you all. Take with me from the book of Songs of Solomon. 4:12,“A Garden enclosed, Is my sister, my spouse, A spring shut up, A fountain sealed. ”
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, today addressing us as, “My sister, My spouse”,God is at first calling us to have an intimate relationship with Him today. He says, “His relationship. ”Indicating our relationship with Him. Once we called Him as God of Abraham, then we called Him as God of Isaac, then we called him as God of Jacob. But after the coming of David, he wondered why we should not call Him as “My God.”
Once He was God of Abraham, Later he was called as God of Isaac, then we called Him as God of Jacob,. David says, He is My God, and calls as “ My God, My God.” He says, “I am searching for you in the early morning. ” Today also, He says, My Sister, My spouse, and God have kept a good relationship with us. This shows your close relationship with Lord Jesus Christ. If you have such an intimate relation, then God says, “You are a closed garden, ” That means you are a garden surrounded with fencing as protection. So that your garden will not be destroyed by any evil animals or intruders. Your garden should not be damaged by any wild beasts. No one should destroy the grains growing in your garden. That is why a fencing is erected around the garden. In order to prevent the intrusion of wild animals that could spoil the appearance of the garden.
Secondly, God shuts the spring of water. He wants to provide clean and pure water from the spring. In order that the water should not be spoiled, he shuts the spring of water. So that all the leaves and dust that has fallen in the water or poisonous insects that could have fallen into the water and thus make it dirty and unclean for people to use. He makes a shade over the spring of water as a protection so that the spring will produce clean water, pure water and healthy water for you to drink. This is a symbol of good health.
Thirdly God says, You are a sealed fountain . ”A well represents the blessing of any particular town or village. It is beautifully said that It needs to be sealed. That means the well has to be cleaned. Guard your heart more than anything else, because the source of your life flows from it. Be careful how you think; your life is shaped by your thoughts.” God will increase you to become millions!of times more than before.
Prayer: Dear Lord, we thank you. Lord, what a good God you are? You have called us as Your sister and spouse. And we consider it as a privilege, Tell the Lord, “You are my spouse and I am your bride. ” Lord, we have come into the fort of refuge. Lord for those who have come to You for refuge, give them satisfying life and satisfying strength. Let their body and their family be well protected and may it be a closed garden. Let our soul be like a shut up spring and their spirit be like a sealed fountain. Let there be no damage in them, let them rise and shine and may they be like the city situated on the hill top. Let them shine beautifully for the Lord and glorify Him.
In Jesus Name we pray.
Amen.
