From Hurt to Hope #3
Be Bold
Text: Ruth 3 describes Ruth’s bold interaction with Boaz as she asks him for protection as guardian-redeemer of her family. There was one more closely related so Boaz had to speak with him and promised Ruth he would do it right away.
He gave Ruth barley so she would not go back to Naomi, her mother-in-law, empty-handed.
Hope is a journey and not an easy one. Some steps on our journey will take boldness:
Point 1: Patience should always proceed boldness. Our first reaction may be to act but it is best to wait for God’s timing.
Point 2: Be careful of busyness as it causes us to not move forward. B-U-S-Y= Being under Satan’s yoke. It can rob us of hope.
Point 3: God often encourages us towards boldness through godly people. We need to surround ourselves with accountability people who speak God’s truth to us. They see the potential we have even when we don’t.
Point 4: Do your best, God will do the rest. Ruth listened to Naomi and followed her instructions since she did not know the customs in Israel. She did what she could.
