F.I.R.E. Up Your Love! - The Song Of Solomon’s Biblical Passion and Romance 4:9-12 9You have captured my heart, my treasure, my bride. You hold it hostage with one glance of your eyes, with a single jewel of your necklace. 10Your love delights me, my treasure, my bride. Your love is better than wine, your perfume more fragrant than spices. 11Your lips are as sweet as nectar, my bride. Honey and milk are under your tongue. Your clothes are scented like the cedars of Lebanon. 12You are my private garden, my treasure, my bride, a secluded spring, a hidden fountain. 5:9-16, Her Words... 10My lover is dark and dazzling, better than ten thousand others! 11His head is finest gold, his wavy hair is black as a raven. 12His eyes sparkle like doves beside springs of water; they are set like jewels washed in milk. 13His cheeks are like gardens of spices giving off fragrance. His lips are like lilies, perfumed with myrrh. 14His arms are like rounded bars of gold, set with beryl. His body is like bright ivory, glowing with lapis lazuli. 15His legs are like marble pillars set in sockets of finest gold. His posture is stately, like the noble cedars of Lebanon. 16His mouth is sweetness itself; he is desirable in every way. Such, O women of Jerusalem, is my lover, my friend. 6:4-10, His Words... 4You are beautiful, my darling, like the lovely city of Tirzah. Yes, as beautiful as Jerusalem, as majestic as an army with billowing banners. 5Turn your eyes away, for they overpower me. Your hair falls in waves, like a flock of goats winding down the slopes of Gilead. 6Your teeth are as white as sheep that are freshly washed. Your smile is flawless, each tooth matched with its twin. 7Your cheeks are like rosy pomegranates behind your veil. 8Even among sixty queens and eighty concubines and countless young women, 9I would still choose my dove, my perfect one—the favorite of her mother, dearly loved by the one who bore her. The young women see her and praise her; even queens and royal concubines sing her praises: 10“Who is this, arising like the dawn, as fair as the moon, as bright as the sun, as majestic as an army with billowing banners?” 7:6,7 6Place me like a seal over your heart, like a seal on your arm. For love is as strong as death, its jealous as enduring as the grave. Love flashes like fire, the brightest kind of flame. 7Many waters cannot quench love, nor can rivers drown it. If a man tried to buy love with all his wealth, his offer would be utterly scorned. Focus & Fight (slide...for each line all the way through message.) Focus…on what excites you! (slide) Fight…for your relationship! (slide) Invest & Ignore Invest…time, energy, and money to feed the flame! Ignore…the little things that drive you apart!

Embrace…marital passion as a way of life!
