Study 4 B..We learn this from the words in verse 3: “His fruit is sweet to my taste.” The reference is to the fruit of the tree under which the bride was sitting with her lover. Under His shadow

Study 4B ..under His shade (concluding part)
We stopped at number 3 yesterday ,this is the concluding part.
To sit under his shadow is to have Him as supplier....memory verse still constant
Song of Solomon 2 :3-4.
4 . IN CHRIST WE HAVE BOUNTIFUL SUPPLY
We learn this from the words in verse 3: “His fruit is sweet to my taste.” The reference is to the fruit of the tree under which the bride was sitting with her lover. She found complete sufficiency and absolute satisfaction in his gracious provision for her. What is this sweet satisfying fruit that we, as Christians, experience and that is only ours because of our union with the Lord Jesus? It is mentioned in Galatians 5:22-23. We cannot produce this fruit; it is ”the fruit of the Holy Spirit, the work which His presence within accomplishes” (Amplified Bible) - look up and compare Hosea 14:8 (last phrase). How satisfying His fruit is! – “His fruit is sweet to my taste”!
5 . IN CHRIST WE HAVE PERSONAL GUIDANCE
We learn this from the words in verse 4: “He has taken me to the banquet hall” - notice the “‘he’ and the ‘me’. The bridegroom puts his arm around his bride and leads her lovingly into the banquet hall, and this is exactly what the Lord is doing, or wants to do, for us – look up and compare Psalm 32:8 and Proverbs 3:5-6. His guidance is personal. His leading is gentle, and His direction is accurate, certain and purposeful - look up Psalm 37:23-24 and see what David was able to say in Psalm 78:72.
6 . IN CHRIST WE HAVE SWEET FELLOWSHIP
We learn this from the words in verse 4: “He has taken me to the banquet hall” - literally, ’the house of delights’. This is a picture of His Church and of the fellowship we enjoy as members one of another - fellowship around His Table (1 Corinthians 11:23-26); around His Word (Acts 17:11-12); in prayer (Acts 12:5); in service (2 Corinthians 6:1); in our joys and in our sorrows. What a wonderful thing it is that through the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ we are “all one in Christ Jesus” (Galatians 3:28).
7 . IN CHRIST WE HAVE CONSTANT VICTORY
We learn this from the words in verse 4: “His banner over me is love”. Through faith in Him, and because of His victory, we are ”more than conquerors” (Romans 8:37). It is His banner that is over us, not ours; it is His victory we share, not something which is the result of our trying or effort. The banner is the symbol of victory, and His banner is over us and over all God’s children.
If we really do have all this in Christ, our Lover, what more can we want, in time or in eternity?
Think on these things.....
