BEAUTY OF BRIDE

“Thou art beautiful, O my love, as Tirzah, comely as Jerusalem, terrible as an army with banners”, the king now appears to the Shulamite and starts praising her in verse 4 of Chapter 6 in the Song of Songs. Tirzah was a town near Samaria. It was famous for its beauty and was ruled by Israel’s kings. It was a place of delight. Christ Jesus, while adoring your beauty, compares you to Tirzah. He also compares your comeliness to that of Jerusalem. In the eyes of Jesus, you are perfect. The world may condemn or look down upon you because of your bodily structure or personality. Jesus looks at your inner man saved by His precious Blood. You are not only comely but also terrible as an army with banners. The power of the Holy Spirit on you is terrible, compared to that of a victorious army with banners. You are not alone but are surrounded by God’s army of angels. You are indeed terrible!
