There was a relative of Naomi’s husband, a man of great wealth, of the family of Elimelech. His name was Boaz.   Ruth 2.1

God’s foreknowledge is notorious, wonderful, and providential, for it shows that He protects us at all times (Psalm 46.7,11). The Lord already knew what we would go through in our existence and made us capable of facing any danger, without losing track of how to act in order to be victorious. He has accompanied our gestation process, from before the fertilization of the egg by the sperm (Psalm 139.13-16). Believe!

God planned us before the creation of the universe even began. Therefore, we don’t need to fear tomorrow; sufficient for the day is its own trouble. The Lord’s eye is on us 24 hours a day. Therefore, never be shy or afraid of the enemy. God, our Friend, is unquestionably stronger than all adversaries put together. He will protect us and use us for His glory. Believing in God, we will succeed!

The Most High demanded that Moses pay attention to the model of the tabernacle that would be built in the desert, for it had to be the same as the one in Heaven (Exodus 25.40). By making us in His image and likeness, God has enabled us to see what we need and to emerge victorious from the most difficult battles (Genesis 1.26,27). When we are in the spirit, we are able to bless those who need help. We must trust in the Lord. He is our Strength!

Likewise, when Moses wrote the Law, he had to be faithful in all that he was told. The Most High commanded, and immediately His servant obeyed. If we need help, we only need to tell God, and the solution will come from Him. His directions are recorded in the Bible, nothing was omitted (2 Peter 1.20,21). The Word will make us overcome (2 Timothy 3.16,17).

We are limited by what is in the Scriptures, not by what we want to do, be, or have. We must never go beyond them, whose revelation will be given to us by the Holy Spirit (2 John 9). Walking with Jesus, we will always overcome. Never let yourself be carried away by discouragement or fear. The Lord assures us that if we do not fear evil, it will not touch us (1 John. 4:16-18; 5:18). God is perfect in His doings and has created the law of the kinsman Redeemer – Christ.

Boaz was a kinsman redeemer, so he married Ruth (Deuteronomy 25:5-10). You see, the Scriptures must be read carefully, so that we do not miss any blessings. Naomi taught Ruth what to do to marry Boaz, a symbol of Jesus. She said yes to her mother-in-law and legally became an ancestor of King David and the Lord Jesus himself (Ruth 4.13-22; Matthew 1.5-16). Ruth not only entered the congregation, but also the world of God’s promises. What about you?

Ruth was rewarded for accepting the Lord as her God and serving Him, despising the false gods of her country. The Most High had already written this romance before He began the creation of all things. According to Naomi, Boaz was a brave and mighty man, coming from the root of Elimelech, Ruth’s father-in-law. Jesus is the Brave and Mighty Man!

In Christ, with love,
