Outline For Scripture Union Daily Guide 25 March 2024
How do you see the woman’s loving invitation of her man to a serene garden of flowers and fruits (7:10-13)? The willingness and preparedness she has for her husband to relate with her in sexual intimacy shows how she celebrates her spouse through full acceptance. No woman would like the man she truly loves to do a shameful thing.
What benefit does the Church derive from inviting Jesus Christ to dwell and reign in the hearts of individual members? (John 1:12; Ephesians 5:23-27).
Read 8:1-4 again. Preserving her virginity during an exciting courtship is what the young woman cherishes as also supported by her brothers (8:8-9). What a beautiful upbringing! This is in honour of the man she loves. Therefore, she resists sex before marriage (even when of a marriageable age (v.9) but believes favour would talk for her before any man when her time comes (v.10). Young people must strive, in Christ, to conduct themselves pure in courtship, devoid of fornication.
Practice/Word Application
So what? Do not awaken love until the right time and place!
• Any new insight or reinforcement of what you already know?
Closing Prayer
Thank you Lord, for the grace to love. Help me to be more committed to those who love me.

“Thou hast seen it; for thou beholdest mischief and spite, to requite it with thy hand: the poor committeth himself unto thee; thou art the helper of the fatherless.”
