Who is this woman I am seeing? Shining forth as the moon and sun. She is absolutely heavenly, From the old creation free; Overcoming all to live within the veil. |

An army terrible with banners Christ's lovers overcome to be. Those attracted by His beauty, Fully trusting in His power. Her romance is now the dances of two camps. |

The Shulamite, His duplication, His counterpart has now become. She's the same in life and nature, His expression to the full; Consummated as the New Jerusalem. |

God has no intention for His believers to possess only the heavenly beauty without possessing a warring nature. The heavenly warfare is never abated before the Lord. Believers ought to be lovable and terrible at the same time. Believers today have lost their loveliness before the Lord, and they have lost their terribleness before the enemy and the world.... The Bible often mentions the terribleness of the Lord; He is terrible because He is holy. If we maintain our holiness and victory, we will see the enemy retreating and the world standing back. Not only does [the bride] have a future that is full of hope, and a life that is absolutely heavenly, but she is a victor who constantly triumphs in her victory. She is “terrible as an army with banners. ” She goes from victory to victory. (CWWN, vol. 23, pp. 97, 101)

In response to our dear saint in TX, from Genesis 32:1, 2 The name “Mahanaim” means “two camps” as a result of Jacob’s obedience to God to leave Padan-aram, God had deliver him from the hand of Laban and would deliver him from the hands of others. God Open his eyes to see that his company of people on earth was one camp while God‘s army was another camp; hence there were the “two camps”. (Reference: The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob page: 128 Through Mahanaim, by brother Watchman Nee)

It is our favorite because it touches the deeper experience of the lover of Christ loving, growing and maturing for His satisfaction. Lord we could never be satisfied until YOU are satisfied! We love You Lord Jesus!
