OUR LORD WHO REJOICES OVER HIS BRIDE
Isaiah chapter 62 verses 5 - 7 says this;
As a young man marries a young woman, so will your Builder marry you; as a bridegroom rejoices over his bride, so will your God rejoice over you.
I have posted watchmen on your walls, Jerusalem; they will never be silent day or night. You who call on the Lord, give yourselves no rest, and give him no rest till he establishes Jerusalem and makes her the praise of the earth.
This passage reveals a glimpse into the relationship that the Lord has with His bride.
She is compared to a young woman being married by a young man. In this case, the Lord Himself builds Jerusalem and then marries the city as His bride and He rejoices over His bride even as a young man rejoices over his bride.
The Lord reveals that He has posted watchmen on her walls to diligently watch over her day and night.
The Lord charges the people who are His to be unrelenting in their pressing of the Lord to establish Jerusalem until she is the praise of the earth.
Amen.
