Today’s
Feast
2/15/14 –
Song of Solomon 1
The Bride
Confesses Her Love
Song of Solomon an overview; “This book is a
Divine allegory, which represents the love between Christ and his church of true
believers, under figures taken from the relation and affection that subsist
between a bridegroom and his espoused bride; an emblem often employed in
Scripture, as describing the nearest, firmest, and most sure relation: see
( Psalm 45 , Isaiah 54:5 Isaiah 54:6 , Jeremiah 2:2 , Jeremiah 3:1 ) ; also in Ezekiel, Hosea, and by our Lord himself, ( Matthew 9:15 , Matthew 25:1 ) : see also (Revelation 21:2 Revelation 21:9 , Ephesians 5:27 ) . There is no character in the
church of Christ, and no situation in which the believer is placed, but what may
be traced in this book, as humble inquirers will find, on comparing it with
other Scriptures, by the assistance of God the Holy Spirit, in answer to their
supplications. Much, however, of the language has been misunderstood by
expositors and translators. The difference between the customs and manners of
Europe, and those of the East, must especially be kept in view. The little
acquaintance with eastern customs possessed by most of our early expositors and
translators, has in many cases prevented a correct rendering. Also, the changes
in our own language, during the last two or three centuries, affect the manner
in which some expressions are viewed, and they must not be judged by modern
notions. But the great outlines, rightly interpreted, fully accord with the
affections and experience of the sincere Christian.” - Matthew Henry
Concise
Song of Solomon Chapter
1, “The title. (1) The church confesses
her deformity. (2-6) The church beseeches Christ to lead her to the
resting-place of his people. (7,8) Christ's commendation of the church, Her
esteem for Him. (9-17)” -
Matthew Henry Concise
Dear
Saints,
Today we prayerfully continue our
Feast reading Song of Solomon Chapter1. This is the excellent "the Song of songs," It describes
the glory and excellent love of Jesus, between him and the Church. “16 Behold, you are beautiful, my beloved, truly delightful. Our couch is green; 17 the beams of our house
are cedar; our rafters are pine. “ Song of Solomon 1:16-17 English Standard Version (ESV). Today’s Feast is speaking of God’s love for
those who choose to follow Jesus. God has already showed perfect love for us
when he sent, Christ (see
John 15:13) to pay for our trespasses.
“
In this is love, not that we have
loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our
sins.“ 1 John 4:10 ESV. The perfect love of God
was proved when Jesus went to the cross paying the whole price for our
transgressions.

What Is The Duty Of Man?
|
Today’s
Feast
Feb. 14,
2014 – Ecclesiastes 12
What Is
The Duty Of Man?
“For God did
not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and of
self-discipline.” 2 Timothy
1:7
Ecclesiastes Chapter
12, “A description of the infirmities of
age. (1-7) All is vanity: also a warning of the judgment to come. (8-14)” -
Matthew Henry Concise
Dear
Saints,
Today we prayerfully
continue our Feast reading Ecclesiastes Chapter12. As we remember or recognize our sins we
should repent and ask God’s forgiveness.
Having done that rebuke the evil one in the name of Jesus (see
Romans 8:1) when he returns to condemn us for what God has forgiven.
“13 The end of the matter; all has been heard. Fear God and keep
his commandments, for this is the whole duty of man. 14 For God will bring every
deed into judgment, with every secret thing, whether good or
evil.“ Ecclesiastes
10:20 English Standard Version (ESV). Satan is the accuser he is not our judge,
Jesus alone paid the price for our sin (see
John 15:13). That is because God
showed
perfect
love for us when
he sent,
Christ to
pay for our trespasses.
“34 A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another just
as I have loved you, you also are to love one another. 35 By this all people
will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one
another.”“ John 13:34-35 ESV. When we share the good
news with that same love of God, they will know that Jesus sent us to share his
love with them.
Is Jesus calling
you? Do you want to share his love? Do you want to find true happiness, peace and
purpose in your life? If the answer is
yes to any of these questions please click the following link;

Wisdom Conveys Faith In Jesus
|
Today’s
Feast
Feb. 13,
2014 – Ecclesiastes 11
Wisdom
Conveys Faith In Jesus
“32 He who did not spare his own
Son but gave him up for us all, how will he not also with him graciously give us
all things?” Romans
8:32
Ecclesiastes Chapter
11, “Exhortation to liberality. (1-6) An
admonition to prepare for death, and to young persons to be religious. (7-10)”
-
Matthew Henry Concise
Dear
Saints,
Today we prayerfully
continue our Feast reading Ecclesiastes Chapter11.
The wealthy are reminded to be generously to those not so blessed (see
Psalm 112:9). The
youth are cautioned to look past the fleeting temptations that come with youth
to the lasting rewards that come with wisdom and faith (see
2 Corinthians 7:1). “10 Remove vexation from your heart, and put away pain from your
body, for youth and the dawn of life are vanity.“ Ecclesiastes
10:20 English Standard Version (ESV). To the youthful remember the love and
assurances of Jesus, living a life clean, undefiled in body and spirit,
(see
2 Timothy 2:22)
resounding in holiness to
eternal life.
“16 “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that
whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal
life.“ John 3-16 ESV. Wisdom will bring with
it the understanding of God’ love. Whosoever has faith in Jesus will live in
eternity, without pain or sorrow.
Are the one Jesus is
calling today? Do you want life without
pain? Do you want to find true
happiness, peace and purpose in your life?

“4 Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not
arrogant 5 or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or
resentful; 6 it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. 7
Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all
things.“ 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 ESV.

It Really Is About Love!
|
Today’s
Feast
Feb. 12,
2014 – Ecclesiastes 10
It Really
Is About Love!
“Set a guard, O Lord, over my
mouth; keep watch over the door of my lips!” Psalm
141:3
Ecclesiastes Chapter
10, “To preserve a character for wisdom.
(1-3) Respecting subjects and rulers. (4-10) Of foolish talk. (11-15) Duties of
rulers and subjects. (16-20)” -
Matthew Henry Concise
Dear
Saints,
Today we prayerfully
continue our Feast reading Ecclesiastes Chapter10.
We are told to avoid even the appearance of evil (see
James 1:26) for the sake of those who may be looking at
us as Christ’s ambassadors. If you
expect people to respect you should be respectful to others (see
Luke 6:31). Be sober in all your
thoughts and actions.
“20 Even in your thoughts, do not curse the king, nor in your
bedroom curse the rich, or a bird of the air will carry your voice, or some
winged creature tell the matter.“ Ecclesiastes
10:20 English Standard Version (ESV). Brothers and Sisters, caution those who are
slothful, be encouraging to the timid, lend help to the weak, (see Acts 20:35) be patient
with them all; “4 Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not
arrogant 5 or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or
resentful; 6 it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. 7
Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all
things.“ 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 ESV. By loving God and our
neighbor as ourselves we will fulfil all of the directives to the wise in
Ecclesiastes as we walk in the love of Jesus.
Is Jesus calling
you? Do you want to be loved? Do you want to find true happiness, peace and
purpose in your life? If the answer is
yes to any of these questions please click the following link;

“1 If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not
love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. 2 And if I have prophetic powers,
and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as
to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 3 If I give away all I
have, and if I deliver up my body to be burned, but have not love, I gain
nothing.“ 1 Corinthians 13:1-3 ESV.
