Who Is This One?   By Luz Cintrón June 6, 2002 Web Site:http://www.thepearlsofwisdom.net

 
 
 
 

Who is this coming up from the wilderness, leaning upon her beloved?

I awakened you under the apple tree.
There your mother brought you forth;
There she who bore you brought you forth.”
Song of Solomon 8:5

The one bore by her mother who brought her forth under the apple tree. In the beginning through one man sin entered the world. Isn’t it written?

“just as through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread  to all men, because all sinned….”

Romans 5:12

And then:

“But the free gift is not like the offense. For if by the one man’s offense many died, much more the grace of God  and the gift by the grace of the one Man, Jesus Christ abounded to many.
Romans 5:15

And then:

“so that as sin reigned in death, even so grace might reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord."

Romans 5:21

For what was under the first tree in the garden, the powers of darkness did cast a shadow of accusation and slander against the Holy One, creator of all. For Eve believed the lie that God did not have their best in mind. And believing she thought to acquire knowledge and become like Him. That is, believing the accusation she gave herself to the deception and ate into her death. From that moment on, knowledge would work her death pulling her to resolve things through understanding not being able to trust anymore as innocently and spontaneously as it was in her first nature of innocence.  She died, but was unable to see it because she was deceived.

 There under the shadow of the tree of knowledge she brought this other one forth, that now leans on her beloved. The one of which it is said that comes up out of the wilderness. As she leans upon her Beloved she states what her mother questioned with her decision. In the place Eve with her action accused God by going along with the serpent; this one states in her rest that she totally trust Him. And more so, she has embraced Him as her Beloved, trusting all and first of all her heart. Before Him she  stand as she is without pretenses, in her weakness she leans, in her trust she leans, in her weariness she leans, in her sorrow she leans, in her suffering she leans, in denying of herself she leans. She doesn’t question anymore, nor she tries to stand in her own strength, for she has found it  to be none, she leans on Him, and He has become the everlasting arms that sustains her.

She was brought forth under the apple tree, the rebellion of her mother brought her forth, His broken body provided her a breakthrough out of the wilderness of sin and deception that her mother condemned her into. This one has been given a heart cauterized in the fire of His love within the furnace of affliction, against deception.

This one has dressed herself in His blood and He has arrayed her with the power of His Spirit in the beauty of His holiness. His love showcases her, more than a conqueror, in all things, one who can not be separated from her Beloved. Nor through death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor any high nor depth, nor any other created thing can work separation or throw accusation that  could separate their hearts. And His banner over her is love.

Love to this one empowered in His grace giving her boldness to stand unto Him, for Him, with Him and in Him. When she is found coming up from the wilderness she is seen leaning upon Him, leaning in His strength as it has been imparted in her singleness of mind and heart to her beloved. Being rescued to stand, making all see the fellowship of the mystery, which was from the beginning of the ages hidden in God who created all things in Christ, with the purpose to reveal now the manifold wisdom of God, making it known to the principalities and powers in the heavenly places, and all living creatures, according to the eternal purpose. Isn’t it written?

“and to make all see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the ages has been hidden in God who created all things through Jesus Christ, to the intent that now the manifold wisdom of God might be made known to principalities and powers in the heavenly places, according to the eternal purpose which He accomplished in Christ Jesus our Lord,

Ephesians 3:9-10

Through it all she has been given boldness and access to stand where her mother fold over. And in her mother's fall, the wisdom of God saw it fit, to provide the one to came through her in the promise, born of the spirit and not of the flesh out of her womb.

Under the apple tree His love awakened her and once awakened, her heart became for ever enrapture in the one she beheld. From under, she is brought forth, unto the tree of life once denied to them, but now graciously and freely given unto her, through the truth of God that breaks the power of death abiding in her through deception. She is awakened from under and beholds the love of the One who hung on the tree of shame and sorrow. There the revelation of His heart and who He really is stays unfolded. He became accursed so she could live. He was covered with shame so that she could be made His bride. He did have her best in heart, it is proven and it awakens her. His broken body testifies of His resolve. Scorn and hatred are received with grace and forgiveness “for they know not what they do”  just as Eve did not know back then.

In the tree of shame and suffering the nature, the true nature of the Kingdom of darkness is revealed in all its hatred, all its violence, deception, viciousness . It has been unmasked by Christ when He gave Himself up to be hanged there, so that mercy and judgment could kiss triumphing love.

Upon the tree He bruised the head of the lying serpent. In there she is called to finish His work, in His name and power. From under the apple tree all the way unto the tree of life through the tree of myrrh. Now deception is broken and death possesses no more a sting. They are forever joined to do together what is written in Col. 2:15

“Having disarmed principalities and powers. He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it.”( Col 2:15)

She leans on her Beloved, restored by Him into a creature of trust. She rest her head upon His shoulder, as she leans she is surrendering all her self sufficiency on her knowledge. She submits in the place where the keys of the authority of His kingdom  have been placed, His shoulder. She is made to rest in the place of His authority, the place her mother chose to leave.

“the key of the house of David I will lay on His shoulder; so he shall open, and no one shall shut; and he shall shut, and no one shall open.” Isaiah 22:22

She who has come out of the wilderness, has come out being made a helper comparable to (Genesis 2:18) Him. Leaning on His authority, sharing it from a position of trust, ceasing all strife, she has entered into His rest, having been elevated to the position of His beloved, a wife indeed.

“For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given; and the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

Of the increase of His government and peace there will be no end, upon the throne of David and over His kingdom, to order it and establish it with judgment and justice from that time forward, even forever. The zeal of the Lord of Host will perform it.”
Isaiah 9:6-7

And in truth He has.
 

Your servant in His love;

Luz Cintrón
Let us be glad and rejoice,
and give honour to Him: for
the marriage of the Lamb is come
and His wife hath made herself ready
...Revelation 19:7.
