Drink Devotional Method: Delighting in Christ’s Love (Song of Solomon 2)

Delighting in Christ’s Love

Today, we turn to Song of Solomon chapter 2, a poetic celebration of love that beautifully mirrors the joy of Delighting in Christ’s Love. Through this chapter, we see a picture of the tender relationship Christ offers to us. Let us approach this passage with the DRINK Devotional Method, allowing the Word to nourish our hearts and renew our fellowship with the Lord Jesus Christ.


D – Devotional Reading

Song of Solomon 2 (KJV)

1 I am the rose of Sharon, and the lily of the valleys.
2 As the lily among thorns, so is my love among the daughters.
3 As the apple tree among the trees of the wood, so is my beloved among the sons. I sat down under his shadow with great delight, and his fruit was sweet to my taste.
4 He brought me to the banqueting house, and his banner over me was love.
5 Stay me with flagons, comfort me with apples: for I am sick of love.
6 His left hand is under my head, and his right hand doth embrace me.
7 I charge you, O ye daughters of Jerusalem, by the roes, and by the hinds of the field, that ye stir not up, nor awake my love, till he please.
8 The voice of my beloved! behold, he cometh leaping upon the mountains, skipping upon the hills.
9 My beloved is like a roe or a young hart: behold, he standeth behind our wall, he looketh forth at the windows, shewing himself through the lattice.
10 My beloved spake, and said unto me, Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away.
11 For, lo, the winter is past, the rain is over and gone;
12 The flowers appear on the earth; the time of the singing of birds is come, and the voice of the turtle is heard in our land;
13 The fig tree putteth forth her green figs, and the vines with the tender grape give a good smell. Arise, my love, my fair one, and come away.
14 O my dove, that art in the clefts of the rock, in the secret places of the stairs, let me see thy countenance, let me hear thy voice; for sweet is thy voice, and thy countenance is comely.
15 Take us the foxes, the little foxes, that spoil the vines: for our vines have tender grapes.
16 My beloved is mine, and I am his: he feedeth among the lilies.
17 Until the day break, and the shadows flee away, turn, my beloved, and be thou like a roe or a young hart upon the mountains of Bether.


R – Reflection

As I read this chapter, i am stirred toward Delighting in Christ’s Love. Verse 4 declares, “He brought me to the banqueting house, and his banner over me was love.” What a joy to know that Christ’s love covers me — a banner of grace, mercy, and belonging. The invitation in verse 10, “Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away,” reminds me that Jesus lovingly calls me into fellowship with Him, drawing me away from the distractions of life into the joy of His presence. The poetic imagery of new life — flowers blooming, birds singing — mirrors the spiritual renewal I experience through Delighting in Christ’s Love. At the same time, verse 15 warns me of the “little foxes” that can spoil my spiritual fruit. It is a gentle reminder to guard my heart so that I may fully enjoy the sweetness of living in His love.


I – Instruction

This passage calls me to live each day Delighting in Christ’s Love. It invites me to respond to His call for fellowship, to embrace the joy and security found in Him, and to guard against anything that would hinder that delightful communion.


N – Now Live It

Today, I will intentionally take time to sit under Christ’s banner of love through prayer, worship, and meditation on His Word. I will reflect on His invitation to a life of Delighting in Christ’s Love and will ask the Lord to reveal any “little foxes” that might need to be removed from my life. I will choose to walk in joyful fellowship with my Beloved Savior.


K – Kneel in Prayer

Lord Jesus, thank You for Your unfailing love that covers and calls me. Help me to live in the joy of delighting in You today. Teach me to guard my heart so nothing spoils the sweet fellowship we share. Let my life reflect the beauty of living under Your banner of love. In Your precious Name I pray, amen.
