Breathe Apples of Gold

October 20, 2015

Proverbs 15:23 AMP … A man has joy in making an apt answer, and a word spoken at the right moment—how good it is!

Proverbs 25:11 NASB … Like apples of gold in settings of silver is a word spoken at the right time.

Apples of gold
Apples of gold
Lord I desire apples of gold.

Oh to breathe in Your sweet scent
The fragrance of Your breath like apples –Song 7:8
The sweet smelling scent of life –2 Cor 2:15
Lord blow upon Your garden –Song 4:15-16
Oh to breathe in and out Your apples of gold
Refresh me with apples of joy! –Song 2:5

Apples of gold
Apples of joy
An incense so sweet
A living sacrifice – 
Eph5:1-2; Ro12:1-2; Ps45:11
In the place of apples
In the fragrant place of praise
Lord, You are my praise! – Jer 17:14;Ex 15:2;Ps 132:13-14

These apples of gold contain a fragrance that can be breathed in and out!

Apples of gold are breathed by the Holy Spirit. They contain the fragrance of Christ, bringing life. These apples “breathe” – refresh, quicken, revive and restore from sickness, discouragement, faintness, and/or death. They bring joy. Isn’t it interesting that the “place of apples”, the place where these apples are “breathed” is in Judah, assigned to the tribe of Judah = praise/He is to be praised?!
