Satan is the accuser
of the brethren, Jesus is our AFFIRMER!
| “Now wedded
and united with he love, the maiden’s bridegroom exclaims,’How beautiful
you are, my darling. How beautiful you are.’ Then he speaks specific prophetic
affirmations, wooing his bride to come forth.
In the same way, Jesus, our glorious Bridegroom, speaks prophetically over us as we timidly arise and take baby steps forward, purposing to leave the comfort zone and progress into more maturity.He does not condemn us for our immaturity or accuse us of our failures. Instead, He calls things that are not as though they were, because He sees those things in seed form in our hearts ( Rom 4:17)......He says,’I love you! I have passionate affections for you! I will transform a fervent, immature maiden into My reigning, mature bride.’” Mike Bickle,”Passion for Jesus”,p114 |
Let’s look at the prophetic words Jesus speaks over us, His Bride.... (actually, literally this scene is of the wedding night, after the procession, where the bride is still wearing the veil - Gen 29:23-25, Leah wore bridal veil)
The following chart shows the parts of the body described and can represent different parts of the body of Christ (His Bride) with the different emphases people will have in their ministries. It can also represent different qualities that need to be found in a believer moving into the 'covenant' phase of their relationship with Christ.
Notice the 'double function' interpretation - by taking the function (Jewish thought) of the body part ,and also the thing that it is likened to , a clear interpretation can be derived. Some images can be interpreted based on their general meaning in Scripture and/or the root Hebrew meanings.
