Good morning all. Its a beautiful day here in Santo Domingo. Last session of 2 1/2 days filled with messages of encouragement and confirmation. I want to share with you parts of the continuation of the message yesterday of how God used a non-Jewish woman (Ruth) who submitted to a Jewish woman (Naomi) and took her to the place of bread (Bethlehem), her rightful husband and to her destiny as part of the lineage of Jesus. LONG READ BUT INTERESTING. THE SPEAKER WAS SPANISH SO FORGIVE THE UNUSAL TRANSCRIPTION. To get to Bethlehem Naomi and Ruth had to go through a desert. Orpah didnt want to make that journey so she went back to her people. The desert is to take away from your side people that do not have revelation. You cannot walk through a process with someone who do not have an identity. Three things Ruth abandoned: Her nationality Her faith Her family They are good connections but when you get attached emotionally it would get you to disobey God. Mahlon - Ruths husband - she had no child for him. There are people that you need to get from your side because they make you sterile. God is even going to take you out of some places that sterilize your life. Her reality was that she was sterile but that wasnt the truth. The only person that can do harm to you is yourself when you dont deny yourself. The church has taught believers to be afraid of devils and demons bugs who you need to be aware of is yourself. God does not force anybody to do what they dont want to do. He does not punish you. There is a consequence for every action. A woman of faith discerns her seasons. There is a time to feel and there is a time to be like a machine - calculating. CHRIST has to be in control your emotions. Ruth lost her emotions because she had to resign all the things that would bother her emotionally- nationality, faith and family. Ruth had to go into the field to glean. She was not ashamed. When God send you out you will not be ashamed. God will use rejection to take you out of the life that limits you. Ruth was left in the field to reap/gather. When its time to gather there is no time to rest. Boaz came to the field and he looked at a woman that was working. He said thats not normal. Boaz asked who is she? When you do differently, very important people will be interested in you. Boaz said three things: Dont bother her Dont make her ashamed Dont rebuke Give her a license to keep gathering. Before Dec 31 the license will be given for you to gather. Woman pray, pray, pray. Ruth said no time to rest. I come to gather. Work work work! The grain had to fall for the foreigner, widow and orphan God will never hold on to somebodys reward. 7 x 7 God will give unto you With death and the right husband/relationship you will receive restoration. Backstory: When famine came to Bethlehem Elimelech, Naomis husband left with his family to go to Moab. God did not tell him to go. He and both his sons died leaving his wife and their wives as widows. Boaz remained in Bethlehem at the time of the same famine because his carried the seed that would ultimately produce the King of kings and Lord of lords. He had to meet Ruth who was returning with Naomi. Interesting message that provoked me to go back and read the Book of Ruth. Much love
