The Father is Not Just Father, He’s Also Our Groom | Bridget Marcus

We often relate to God as our Father — protector, provider, corrector, and nurturer. But how often do we experience Him as the Groom of our souls? The One who pursues, delights in, and desires to be desired by us?

He isn’t distant. He isn’t cold. He isn’t just watching from heaven like a disconnected parent. No — His heart burns with affection for His Bride — for YOU.

 

“For the Lord delights in you, and He claims you as His bride.”— Isaiah 62:5 (TPT)

He isn’t just the One you run to when you’re scared, or when you need help — He’s the One you dance with in the secret place. He’s the One whispering, “You have ravished my heart with just one glance of your eyes!”— Song of Songs 4:9 (TPT)

This is not just poetic language — this is the holy invitation into divine romance. A love that restores, fulfills, and redefines who you are.

He longs to be loved on by you — not out of obligation, but because love looks for communion. Love wants to be seen, known, and cherished.

You are His choice. His delight. His desire.

“I will make you my bride forever, showing you righteousness and justice, unfailing love and compassion. I will be faithful to you and make you mine, and you will finally know me as Yahweh.”— Hosea 2:19-20 (TPT)

Let this truth wash over your soul today: He doesn’t just want to parent you — He wants to romance you. To restore your heart to wonder, intimacy, and joy.

Prayer: Father, Groom of my soul — awaken me to Your jealous love. I don’t want to just know You as King or Savior — I want to know You as the Lover of my soul. Teach me how to love You deeply, how to pour my affection on You like the woman with the alabaster jar.

Remove the barriers of shame, distance, and duty. Draw me into the secret place where Your whispers ignite my heart again. Let me never forget — I am Yours, and You are mine.

Amen.

May you feel His love pursuing you even now. If this stirs your heart, don’t just read it but respond to Him today.
