Bible Text: Proverbs 5:18-19, Mark 10:6-9 |

Stay in Love                            November 12, 2017

Proverbs 5:18-19  Let thy fountain be blessed: and rejoice with the wife of thy youth.  19.  Let her be as the loving hind and pleasant roe; let her breasts satisfy thee at all times; and be thou ravished always with her love.

Mark 10:6-9  But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female.  7.  For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and cleave to his wife;  8.  And they twain shall be one flesh: so then they are no more twain, but one flesh.  9.  What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.

In these scriptures the encouragement is, that we not just be in love, but that we may stay in love. True love stays in love. Paul’s gospel encourages us to abide in bridal love. The church of Ephesus left their first love. Don’t let things pull you away from the one thing that matters. Remember when you saw yourself in the midst of the throne with Jesus, glorified together with Him! One of the main reasons we fall out of love is we don’t appreciate the rarity of being in love. The value, the wonder, the beauty of being in love.  For most it’s just a moment in time instead of being in love for a lifetime. Do you recall the passion? The moment that bridal love flooded your life. He said, “I want to marry you”, and you said, “I will go”.

Song of Solomon 1:2  Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth:

This is for those that have received the word of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. Not just once in a while but daily in His embrace. The kisses are hearing this message. Stay in love. Appreciate the value that God graced you to be in love in the first place. True love can’t hide how you feel. It can’t be quenched, destroyed, or overtaken. That’s why we go on. Thank the Lord you’ve heard this gospel. He’s serious with you. May you see God’s passion, God’s determination, His jealousy for you. He circled your life.

Love the truth, love to worship. We love each other.

Paul’s gospel is the ‘first love’ message. Love letters. The Spirit speaks to you individually. God help us to never be complacent with the bridal message. Never take it for granted. Always treasure the great grace and mercy that revealed this truth.

Vashti was the queen and she had it all, however she grew complacent. She didn’t appreciate that grace but there was a woman that was there to take that crown. She won the kings heart, she treasured the grace to be his glory.

Proverbs 31:29 Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all.

This is the greatest value. His goodly pearl. Be that glory for Him. Christ in you, the hope of glory. Let’s stay in love.
