GET INTIMATE WITH JESUS

Songs of Solomon 2:4 He brought me to the banqueting house, and his banner over me was love.

Jesus is the greatest personality that ever lived on the face of this earth. His love drew multitudes to Him and it is still drawing millions to Him today. Our walk with Jesus ought to go beyond asking and receiving; or trying to use Him to get something even though He came to be used. I am using the word “use” with lots of reverence.

There is nothing wrong when you come to God for Him to do something for you. But you have to graduate from that and get intimate with Jesus who owns everything. The story of Ruth and Boaz is a vivid graphical illustration of this concept. Ruth is a picture of the church while Boaz is a picture of our Lord Jesus Christ.

As long as Ruth was not married to Boaz, all she could get was some measures of corn with lots of hard labor all day in the sun. But the moment she got married to Boaz, she ended up owning the whole field and everything that Boaz owned. She did not even have to work for it again. All the servants were now under her. These were servants who once upon a time were the ones giving her hand outs. But because she got married to Boaz, these servants were now serving her.

When you truly get intimate with Jesus, you inherit all that He has effortlessly. It is time to get intimate with Jesus! Spend time with Him at His feet. Hear His word and commune with Him in prayer daily. Listen to His instructions and act on them promptly. Cherish His presence and believe in His love for you.
