Help in The Time of Need
Since the year A.D. 1900 mankind has achieved much progress towards a global utopia, not unlike what mankind attempted to accomplish in the days of Babel.
They wanted a
one-world city without God. “And they said, Go to, let us
build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and
let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the
whole earth.” [Genesis
11:4]
This shows
that mankind is very progressive by nature in his attitude
towards God: a hater of God.
The “Lion of the tribe of Juda, the Root of David” [Revelation 5:5] is coming to this world to establish the Kingdom of Heaven from Jerusalem.
Someone will in the near future step out of the clouds and the darkness, and will physically intervene in the affairs of the men of this world, in righteousness, and in judgment.
“Clouds and darkness are round about him: righteousness and judgment are the habitation of his throne.” [Psalm 97:2]
“In that day shall the branch of the LORD be beautiful and glorious, and the fruit of the earth shall be excellent and comely for them that are escaped of Israel.” [Isaiah 4:2]
The face of the Son of God will appear differently to the believers in Jesus Christ (the body of Christ—the church) [see Colossians 1:24]. This transfigured view of Jesus Christ is seen through the viewport of the Song of Solomon.
Here he is!!! The face of the Son of God “is white and ruddy, the
chiefest among ten thousand.”
And there can be made no comparison to
this face!
“His head is as the most fine gold, his locks are bushy, and black as a raven.” Song of Solomon 5:11
To those of us who are the saved in this age:
“His eyes are as the eyes of doves by the rivers of
waters, washed with milk, and fitly set.”
Song of Solomon 5:12
To those of us who are born of the Spirit: “His cheeks are as a bed of spices, as sweet flowers: his lips like lilies, dropping sweet smelling myrrh.”Song of Solomon 5:13
We are enamored!
We are inflamed with love, and are throughly thrilled with him.
We are totally delighted with the sight of the rose colored [ruddy] face of the Son of God.
Ruddy … rose colored it is, and thus, we have the rose of Sharon in our frontal view: “I am the rose of Sharon, and the lily of the valleys.” [Song of Solomon 2:1]
We [the believers] find something different about Jesus Christ than the men of this world.
We find: “His hands are as gold rings set with the beryl: his belly is as bright ivory overlaid with sapphires. His legs are as pillars of marble, set upon sockets of fine gold: his countenance is as Lebanon, excellent as the cedars. His mouth is most sweet: yea, he is altogether lovely.” [Song of Solomon 5:10-16]
To those who love him, “unto all them also that love his appearing” [2 Titus 4:8], the ruddy face of the Son of God is the shine that fills with life (makes us lively), who quickens us by the Spirit of God. [1 Corinthians 15: 36; Ephesians 2: 1, 5; Colossians 2:13; 1 Peter 3:18]
The song: Joy To The World by Isaac Watts is is based on Psalm 98 and it proclaims what is to happen in the very near future.
The “Lion of the tribe of Juda, the Root of David” [Revelation 5:5] is coming to this world to establish the Kingdom of Heaven from Jerusalem.
