“And the servant put his hand under the thigh of Abraham his master, and sware to him concerning that matter.”
Genesis 24:9 KJV
So, the servant put his hand under the thigh of his master Abraham and swore an oath to carry out his wishes. We can see a picture here of the Father releasing the Holy Spirit to seek out a Bride for His Son, Jesus Christ. It is the Father that brings the Bride to Jesus as His love gift to the Son - a gathering of a Bridal-partner for Jesus from the nations of the earth. The Church is the Bride, the Lamb’s Wife. His ministers are “friends of the bridegroom” who are sent to awaken bridal love in the nations as they persuade souls to espouse their heart to Him. Only the trusted Servant, the Holy Spirit, is capable of drawing hearts to the Son, imparting endless love for Him. He desires a willing Bride, willing to leave all to follow the Holy Spirit to be led to her Bridegroom. Let’s be willing to leave all and follow Him, led by the Holy Spirit. Glory to God!
