What I Learned From Ruth

May the Lord repay you for what you have done. May you be richly rewarded by the Lord , the God of Israel, under whose wings you have come to take refuge.”
Ruth 2:12 NIV

Coming Back To God

I am someone who left God , went back to sin …. got destroyed … and then came back to God… And this is what I learned from Ruth.

It Doesn’t Matter

When I was sin I used to date drug dealers and men who were in gangs. Actually I left God and yet He was still calling me … telling me to return unto Him. And I did… but I had to deal with the natural consequences of my sin.

When Boaz had finished eating and drinking and was in good spirits, he went over to lie down at the far end of the grain pile. Ruth approached quietly, uncovered his feet and lay down. In the middle of the night something startled the man; he turned—and there was a woman lying at his feet! “Who are you?” he asked. “I am your servant Ruth,” she said. “Spread the corner of your garment over me, since you are a guardian-redeemer of our family.” “The Lord bless you, my daughter,” he replied. “This kindness is greater than that which you showed earlier: You have not run after the younger men, whether rich or poor. And now, my daughter, don’t be afraid. I will do for you all you ask. All the people of my town know that you are a woman of noble character.

Marriage Is Beautiful

I guess when it comes to marriage I’m kind of like the Apostle Paul. I never wanted to be married because I was always able to take care of myself. I never needed anyone and I was kind of prideful about it… Until I lost everything … I never knew how mean people can be when your heart is broken because I always had money… I used money to fill voids of pain and accept my hurt when it was gone…

But How Does This Relate To Ruth

Ruth lost her husband and had to leave her family.. (Ruth 1:16-17) she had to leave something that was dead and trust God through poverty, through work, and a new found faith. What is dead in your life ? I know for me my old life in California , my wealth , and my dreams are dead… and I have left my family like Ruth … and somehow I have to faith it and gather the strength like Ruth to move forward ..

I love Ruth’s character … because let me tell you dating thugs and drug dealers are not it honey .. trust me I know from experience.

Boaz was a older man I believe and that’s beautiful. Because of Ruth I have lost the desire for a worldly man. A man that fears God, loves the Bible, and is stable is a good man. Not these stupid rappers and drug dealers… that’s a fantasy that I dont want.

A Woman

I have learned like Gomer … you can leave God and be with men that buy you things but the moment … you hold your ground and your foundations of God kick in they are going to leave you. A man that loves God is a man for me. Christian men (real Christian men not pretenders) are the men that women should desire…. who wants a thug when you can have God ?

After the Sin

You’re left with a broken heart…. but if you work and trust God like Ruth HE (Psalm 24) will redeem you.. God I thank you in advance …

Today

Think about your dating choices as a Christian because they matter. Dont pursue thugs, drug dealers , rappers, and men who ONLY talk about money.

Focus on God… if God sends you a prophet as a husband love him…dont make fun of him for loving God…. if He sends a witness as your husband love him… because trust me life of the other side of recovery isn’t easy. Think before you act in your relationships and ask for wisdom.

Amen ? Amen.

Devotional : Lord Teach Me To Be Humble In Prayer

God Always Answers My Prayers

…. but I didnt say it’s always a response I wanted. There are some (MANY) times that God does tell me no and that I have to wait or sometimes Be Still.

But I had to learn. When I pray I dont go to God demanding , I go in humility in repentance . When you spend time today check your heart, your attitude, and you posture . God doesn’t have to do anything for you . God wants a repentant heart. If you need God to move get into repentance and humility THEN He will move (Psalm 51).

Have mercy on me, O God, have mercy! I look to you for protection. I will hide beneath the shadow of your wings until the danger passes by. I cry out to God Most High, to God who will fulfill his purpose for me. He will send help from heaven to rescue me, disgracing those who hound me. Interlude My God will send forth his unfailing love and faithfulness. I am surrounded by fierce lions who greedily devour human prey— whose teeth pierce like spears and arrows, and whose tongues cut like swords. Be exalted, O God, above the highest heavens! May your glory shine over all the earth. My enemies have set a trap for me. I am weary from distress. They have dug a deep pit in my path, but they themselves have fallen into it. Interlude My heart is confident in you, O God; my heart is confident. No wonder I can sing your praises! Wake up, my heart! Wake up, O lyre and harp! I will wake the dawn with my song. I will thank you, Lord, among all the people. I will sing your praises among the nations. For your unfailing love is as high as the heavens. Your faithfulness reaches to the clouds. Be exalted, O God, above the highest heavens. May your glory shine over all the earth.
Psalms 57:1‭-‬11 NLT

A Woman Who Fears The Lord

When you look in the Book of Exodus you encounter many divine deliverance’s from God. Immediately in the beginning of Exodus, you are introduced to the History of the children of Israel and what there current situation is.

Your job matters

I think the medical ministry is beautiful because God can use you at the right place and the right time. How beautiful is it, to be a Christian in medicine …

Exodus 1:15-16 New Living Translation (NLT)

15 Then Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, gave this order to the Hebrew midwives, Shiphrah and Puah: 16 “When you help the Hebrew women as they give birth, watch as they deliver.[a] If the baby is a boy, kill him; if it is a girl, let her live.”

In this passage the two midwives feared God and obeyed their beliefs. Because they obeyed God, God honored them and gave them their own families (Exodus 1:20 NLT). So today or when the situation arises… and someone doesn’t know if they are going to keep their child or faced with the idea of abortion, remember this verse .

Exodus 1:17 New Living Translation (NLT)

17 But because the midwives feared God, they refused to obey the king’s orders. They allowed the boys to live, too.

God is going to honor you for being obedient. Children are a reward. And as we begin to move forward we need to step up, stop taking plan B, control ourselves, and flee sexual immorality. Not only that, as Christians we say NO TO ABORTIONS! And Plan B is included in this.

So if you know someone who has children or is preparing for motherhood… why don’t you be kind? Buy some pampers, order some things on Amazon for them… Help them get formula.. Be kind and show the love of God because He is watching you… and if you please King, He will reward you.

Father I pray,

That we as Christians will become bold. I pray that we will not get abortions and we will stop Plan B… I pray that we don’t abuse our children and according to Malachi 3: 17-18 NLT we love our  children ..I pray there is a difference and the people may see that we serve Jehovah. Amen

Psalm 60:9-12 CSB

Who will bring me to the fortified city?
Who will lead me to Edom?
10 God, haven’t you rejected us?
God, you do not march out with our armies.
11 Give us aid against the foe,
for human help is worthless.
12 With God we will perform valiantly;
he will trample our foes.

The Truth

We can lose the battle waiting on someone else. There are many ups and downs in this Christian walk… with that being said you have to surrender your will to God for a deliverance. I love when The Bible says “but do not let me fall into human hands (2 Samuel 24:14).” Your deliverance and your breakthrough is in God alone. God alone parted the Red Sea for the children of Israel and God alone was resurrected when they hung my Savior Jesus on the cross (Matthew 26 & 27). This thing is a God only YOU can do it thing. Focus on Exodus 14:14 and watch God move.

Exodus 14:14 New Living Translation (NLT)

14 The Lord himself will fight for you. Just stay calm.”

Have A Good Night…
