The Blessings in "Faithfulness"!
The Blessings in “Faithfulness”!
God Is Faithful to Us as We Are Faithful to Others!
So, Boaz took Ruth, and she became his wife; and he went in unto her, and Jehovah gave her conception, and she bare a son. And the women said unto Naomi, Blessed be Jehovah, who hath not left thee this day without a kinsman; and let his name be famous in Israel. (Ruth 4:13-17)
The “more” you give, the “more” He gives to you!
Our Daily Nugget is about people who Loved their neighbors as they Loved themselves; they were faithful to each other, and God showed His Blessings due to their Faithfulness.
Naomi was married and had two sons, who were both married. Naomi’s husband and both of here sons died. Naomi’s concern was for her daughters-in-law and told them to not worry about her, but to go back to their home; they were young and could remarry. Ruth’s main concern was for her mother-in-law, so she stayed with her, to help make sure she was okay. They were very poor.
God is Faithful to the Faithful!
Naomi and Ruth were Faithful to one another; now God showed His Faithfulness to them. God led Ruth to “gleam” wheat in Boaz’s wheat field. Boaz was a rich man. God led Boaz to admire Ruth and Boaz showed her favor and Boaz made Ruth his wife. Naomi was faithful to Ruth, Ruth was faithful to Naomi, God was pleased with the Faithfulness of both and “Blessed” them both, beyond measure. He is still blessing people today, due to their Faithfulness.
To be Faithful:
Be willing to let others go first.
Be willing to give over receiving.
We must Trust God, over trusting self.
We must live by Faith and Not by Sight.
We must love our neighbor as we love ourselves.
Ask God to Bless You with the Wisdom To
Show Your Faithfulness Through Loving Your Neighbor As You Love Yourself,
And Watch What Happens!
