Do you have your own oil? In this week’s rebroadcast of Part II, The Coming of the Bridegroom, we explore what the oil means within the parable of the ten virgins from Matthew 25:1-13.
In addition, I’m sharing The Song of the Bride, a song from one of my first albums that fits in perfectly with this message. This song came about as I was reading the first chapter of Revelation where “someone like a son of man” was among seven golden lampstands (Rev. 1:12-20). As I was in prayer I saw a vision of Jesus walking among the lampstands, looking for the one filled with the pure oil of His love. Although this song was written years ago, it is so applicable to our time now more than ever. The church needs to rise and shine, burning the oil of His love! (For more reading on the love of Jesus and the oneness we have with Him, read 1 Cor. 13:1 and John 17:20-23.)
I encourage you this week: get your own oil—that oil of intimacy with Jesus. May your lamps be full so that when Jesus comes back for his bride you are ready to enter into the wedding banquet!
Blessings,
