I spread my skirt (or wing) over thee. A sign of betrothal such as is found with Boaz and Ruth. Ruth was discovered by Boaz at the midnight hour at his feet. Ruth 3:9 The midnight hour bears reference to the hour of the wedding of the Lamb. At the midnight hour the cry will be made, Behold the Bridegroom cometh. Mt. 25:6 Those who were ready went into the wedding. The unprepared were excluded, even though they eventually came seeking admission to the wedding. Five wise, five foolish that is fifty percent of the church which will not be prepared for the soon coming wedding.
Mt. 25:1-12 Are we wise and anointed, or foolish and have no oil? The foolish had at one time had oil, for their lamps were lit, only to run dry at this very crucial moment. The anointing of the Bride is fresh and up to date.

As noted above, the skirt may also carry the meaning of an edge, the tip of a wing or a wing. There is no more secure place for the Bride to whom the wings of the great eagle will be given for her escape into the place prepared by the Lord. There she will be shelter by the Lord for the duration of the tribulation period of three and one half years. Rev. 12:14 Here He will cover her with His feathers as she displays absolute confidence in the protection of His wings. Ps. 91:4 In the mean time the terror of darkness will rage around her. Pestilence and destruction will prevail. All the terrific events that hit this earth during the tribulation will in no way have any effect on her. She is divinely sheltered. She will see but not participate in all that the Lord will do in rewarding the wicked. None of these things will have any effect on her nor even come close to her. Ps. 91:5-10

I swear unto you. The Lord in making covenant took an oath of promise and fulfillment, by which, He made promises that only He can make and keep. He is faithful in all of His covenant promises and will not fail to fully keep them. He will not lie nor will He fall short. All of His promises which are fulfilled in Christ are in truth and completely trustworthy. 2 Cor. 1:20 He not only makes covenant but He is the covenant. So, He entered into a covenant with the people of that day, which they violently broke and violated. Of necessity, He has made a new covenant of which Jesus is both its administrator and sacrifice. The old was destined to pass away, by decay and misuse and in itís place is the New Covenant which is for all people. Heb. 8:13 In this manner all who believe on the redemption that is in the shed blood of the Lord Jesus may make covenant with the Lord. In so doing they become the sole possession of the Lord Jesus with the ultimate purpose of becoming His Bride. Eze. 16:8.
