I am the world's richest man
for I possess untold, infinite wealth
for I've been given as my inheritance
not money, or material possessions
oh no,
The owner and the ruler of the entire Universe
has given me Himself!
His heart, His soul,
are mine to know -
I'm His Son
I'm destined to inherit
His eternal, wondrous, kingdom
and too, I'm His Bride
His Beloved, His betrothed,
invited to sit with Him on His Throne -
This is true wealth
for He'll be mine forever
and He will never
be taken from me
Whereas earthly Kings and Potentates
whether Elon Musk or Bill Gates,
The Sultan of Brunei,
King David or King Solomon
No matter who
the list could go on and on
but not a single one
could take a single solitary penny
with them when they passed
but the wealth that I possess will last
Yes, greater than any THING
is the Presence of my King
So in a very real sense
Solomon is a prophecy, a foreshadow
of The Bride of Christ
who chose the wisdom of intimacy
with her King of kings
and not set her heart
on getting things
or the wealth of this world
but desired instead that most valuable of pearls -
God's presence - His very Personage
The Father The Son and The Spirit
So she's been rewarded
with the very wealth
she did not set her heart upon -
It was her husband she chose
to honor and serve
now her eternal reward is assured
For this is written upon her forehead -
the forehead of she whom He adores
"Holiness unto The Lord"
Therefore she will not be purged
from the New Heaven and the New Earth
with the rest of mankind
who rejected and spurned
His love so infinitely valuable and sweet
making them worthless, fit only to be burned
like trash - thrown into the lake of fire
For they chose not to desire
the greatest wealth they could ever possess -
His holiness - the very Presence
of the One who confessed -
" Father forgive
that they may live
and not die -
Accept my death instead,
Hear my cry!
Father! Father!
Why?!
Why have You forsaken me!?
It is Finished
Now Father
into Your hands
I give my spirit
Now i await
My Bride's appearing
for she is making herself ready
even as I speak
Soon i will possess her -
The Treasure who makes my heart leap!
She whom I seek
Her presence is worth more
than all other, untold, eternal riches
I long for, Father, I ache
for her embrace
for her kisses
When will she appear?!
OH FATHER!
IT MUST BE SOON!
GIVE HER TO ME!
LEST I FAINT!
LEST I SWOON!
her appearing
is like the Dawn to my eyes
soon, Father, soon I will realize
The Hope and desire I had
when I saw Adam draw his first breath
My joy will be complete
when she joins me
here on My Heavenly Seat
Where together we'll enjoy
Eternal happiness
and bliss,
OH FATHER!
Thank You for this!"
