The Song of Songs: A hidden mystery (The transition of a woman before she finds peace.)

Hi fam, if you are a lady this is for you.

If you are a gentleman read and share with any lovely lady you know. This is a mysterious bread, meant to give hope and joy to many. From our Father's table, wisdom speaks.

‎Let's give thanks:

‎Father open our hearts to receive and our  eyes to see. Give us discernment and ease. Let your peace and wisdom overflow. Give rest to those tired and food to those hungry. Let your living water quench the desires of our hearts Amen.

‎Let's break bread:

‎The song of songs has unique perspectives and angles but there is a perspective many haven't seen. At each stage a young lover appears, and from their lips you glean or catch a glimpse of the state of the young woman.

‎One of the interesting things I noticed are the many lovers who approach without a name but seek to have a taste of her fruit and to move her from her position of peace and tranquility and promises to offer her something in exchange for what she has cultivated.

‎Our study today is the whole book of song of songs, I'm using NLT version. There are eight chapters in the book and I will call them the eight stages of transition before she finds peace.

‎Chapter 1: First Stage

‎You see a woman insecure about her beauty, one who hasn't looked after herself because she looked after others. You would see a woman who is a shepherd, for she has young goats of her own and adorned with her own jewellery. She also has vision, she also has sight for what is good and her eyes are like doves.

‎Here the young man who approaches wants to claim her and make jewels for her. If you read closely he wants to change her identity and make her serve him you see this in verse 9 "as a mare among Pharaoh's stallions". The beautiful thing is she doesn't settle there. She becomes a temple.

‎Chapter 2: Second Stage

‎You see a woman who is a spring crocus blooming, a lily of the valley, one who has survived the thistles of life, now she is in a season of formation. The winter and rains are gone, flowers are springing, birds singing, and the sounds of victory fill the air, everything is blossoming, yet still hidden behind the rocks on the cliff.

‎Yet the next young love wants her to come down to follow him to only God knows where, this one is a distraction that comes to ruin the vineyards and grapevines blossoming. Be careful of anything that tries to bring you down.

‎Chapter 3: Third Stage

‎You see the woman has an encounter with royalty. She is able to have a vision of  what her future looks like. She is able to see the procession of a king. Here she studies what royalty looks like and begins to walk in those steps. She finds a blue print.

‎Chapter 4: Fourth Stage

‎Young woman is still covered, her visions and plans hidden from prying eyes. Her goats are now flocks of goats and pomegranates can be seen hidden. A hidden harvest. Now she is a city set with towers, protected like a queen for she is her Heavenly Father's princess protected by angels.

‎She is high on a mountain at Lebanon which is the Northern Part of her promise land. Yet in a terrain of lions and leopards. Indeed at the right place and willing to fight for her domain.

‎Yet another young man comes in the name of safety wanting her to abandon all and come down to his level, to the past. He seeks to make her his. He wants her gardens, springs, fountains, pomegranates, spices, fragrance, her fresh water which flows from the top of the mountains.

‎He doesn't seek to protect he but fulfill his ulterior motives. Watch out for family and friends who try to persuade you from your purpose, in the name of love or we are protecting you for it's too hard and prophecies that speak of death and destruction. If it doesn't confirm the vision God has given you, refuse it even if it's your biological parent.

‎Chapter 5: Fifth Stage

‎Young woman is rested but still with a desire, she's well taken care of, filled with perfume, feet washed, body oiled, changed from the past to the future, seeking for love yet gets bruised because of the desire, yet still has an image of what her love looks like. The more I read, the only picture I could see was a Heavenly Being, all the requirements she had could only be fulfilled by the one who lives on high. His Majesty Jesus, the Prince of Peace, the Bridegroom of the church. Don't go away yet my readers she still finds earthly peace.

‎Chapter 6: Sixth Stage

‎Young woman is a city with a majestic army with billowing banners of the Lord with abundance. Clean and washed yet still veiled. She has graceful movements like a dancer and beautiful feet, yet still has desires. She is filled with many towers and protected, her vision, her sense of smell, her glorious hair, her praise, her fragrance, all covered.

‎Yet still another comes as a thief to take away what she has saved for himself. Her praise she sings to her Heavenly Father and her fields of plenty. ‎The blossoms which just opened. Beware of the things which steal your joy and make you worry.

‎Chapter 7: Seventh Stage

‎Young woman is a queenly maiden, with beautiful feeth, her path is adorned and graced. Her Heavenly Father has skilled craftsmen who help her build. Her grapevines have budded, new and old delights have bloomed.

‎She has the finest fruits. Yet another walks to her door, hoping to take the first fruit.

‎Chapter 8: Eight Stage

‎Young woman is a business woman, who has tenant farmers. She earns her own living and encounters Solomon. Solomon means peace. This time Mr. Peace joins her on the Mountain of spices a young stag filled with strength to climb to the mountain tops with her. You will feel peace anytime you meet what is yours anytime you feel resistance or unease, move, cut contact, it's not for you. You will evolve with peace.

‎Father loves you, have a spring filled life of peace and ease.

‎Let's pray:

‎Father keep us, show us and cover us. Let your peace continuously flow and let us walk in your ordered steps. Give hope to the hopeless and expectation to the weary, Amen.

‎If you want to know Jesus the lover of your soul, the one who loves unconditionally, who is our Prince of Peace, say with me:

‎Dear Jesus, come into my heart, I make you my Lord and Saviour, I repent of my sins, I believe you died on the cross to reconcile me back to God, I receive your love and new life, Amen.

‎You will evolve in His love and peace.
