Walk With Me In The Garden

God spoke to me about this painting before I received the vision of it. During this challenging time of COVID-19, many of us have been in isolation. But have we recognized that we are not isolated from God? Perhaps He has given us this opportunity to spend quality time with Him in His garden. When we think of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, they were isolated, like we are now, but they were surrounded by such beauty and purity, and they had the ultimate prize of spending time with our heavenly Father in the cool of the day. Perhaps our physical isolation from the world is a gift from God. Without distractions, we can walk with Him in the garden, sharing our thoughts and even our worries.

By using this time to build your intimacy with God, He will strengthen your foundation of faith, allowing you to fulfill your destiny. Take His presence with you on the road of your journey.

The roses represent the daughters of the King; they are all different and unique, they all have their unique giftings and callings. They pass down their wisdom to the next generation, represented by the rosebuds. The dewdrops are kisses from heaven; dew means guidance and blessings. God replenishes us with his life-giving water every time we take time to be with Him.

The path is painted white, representing the Holy Spirit - this is our journey. Along the path, you will see trailing roses; these are the gifts God gives you along the way, the wisdom and guidance from your time in the garden. We can’t see where the path is taking us, but all we need is to trust.

The vine and branches of the roses are the representation of John 15. God is our gardener; He is always pruning us to strengthen us that we might yield a greater harvest.

The mountains are like blankets of silk; God is covering you with His wrap-around love as He guides you. The orange-gold represents God’s refining grace, empowering you to step into His healing and joy, represented by the pink, all the way into the purple of His kingdom. The glory of God is pouring down.

I am truly his rose, the very theme of his song. I’m overshadowed by his love, growing in the valley. (SOS 2:1 TPT)

My lover has gone down into his garden of delight, the place where his spices grow, to feast with those pure in heart. I know we shall find him there. He is within me—I am his garden of delight. I have him fully and now he fully has me! (SOS 6:2-3 TPT)
