While looking at my list of my favorite Bible verses from each book of the Bible , I realized that I missed reading one book from the Bible – Ruth.
Once I discovered it, I decided to read the book of Ruth. I mean it was only four chapters. As I read the book of Ruth, I also discovered this small book gave me a huge revelation about the “family redeemer”.
Throughout the story of Ruth, you see themes of loyalty and redemption. I find it amazing and so astonishing that such impactful themes can be shown in such a short story. To Ruth staying with her mother in law, Naomi, even when she told Ruth to leave and find a new husband and Boaz redeeming them of their loneliness and hard times. It just goes to prove that the book of Ruth is the true exemplification of the Bible verse that states:
“And this is but a light thing in the sight of the LORD: he will deliver the Moabites also into your hand” – (2 Kings 3:18) The word “light” means not only something that is slight but it also means shining light!
Yes, it was but a “light” thing for God to deliver Ruth and Naomi from their troubles and make them apart of the genealogy of the Light itself – Jesus Christ, the true Redeemer. How amazing is God! He is faithful even when we lose faith in Him! Naomi is like most of us that feel that God is against us when trouble comes into our lives, but really He just wants you to be remembered for a purpose that is greater than you could ever imagine. So He does what he does best – be the author and finisher of our lives and sends loyal people such as Ruth, to take care of us like she did for Naomi. Then, you find light again and help those loyal people like Naomi did for Ruth and got her a husband after all she did for her.
Everyone is a redeemer in the book of Ruth, including the Alpha and Omega himself, God and his son, Jesus Christ.
Let the book of Ruth give you all hope that God will deliver you through the pain of grief of a loved one, financial issues, family issues, relationship issues, or any other issues in your life. He will use his Light to redeem you of those light things you call trouble.
Afterwards, state this prayer :
Lord, I come before you as the repairer of the breach of my life and bloodline. So Lord, WE come before you as your sons and daughters. Lord, we ask that the heavens and earth record this day and this prayer as it pertains to the natural world, the spiritual world, and our dream world, in the Mighty name of Jesus Christ.Lord, we open this prayer with the password “Thank you”. Lord, we thank you for the divine revelation that revealed to us pray that you will deliver us from the troubles of our lives because you are faithful and the author and finisher of our life stories. Lord, we thank you for the book of Ruth and it’s many lessons of loyalty and redemption. Lord, we pray we apply the story to our lives and act upon them. Lord, we thank you for the Light, your son, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for lightening our lives by sacrificing his life to save us from our sins. He is the True Reedemer. Oh Lord, we pray that you continue to lighten our lives and redeem us from the troubles of our lives through Jesus Christ, for we know that it is only a light thing to you. Lord, we pray you find favor in us and send loyal redeemers like Ruth and Boaz to help us during these troubling times, so we can eventually find light again to help them in return. Lord, we pray that you let us see that the troubles of our lives serve as a greater purpose that is in your will, O God. Lord, forgive us for our unfaithfulness. We are sorry and repent for our unfaithfulness. Lord, we pray you have mercy on us for our unfaithfulness even when you were faithful. Lord, we pray that you will release all unfaithfulness to the freedom of our forgiveness. Lord, we pray you release all the wrongs of our unfaithfulness out of our lives, minds, bodies, hearts, souls, and bloodline. Lord, we pray that the blood of Jesus Christ cleanses and sanitizes us from all all unfaithfulness and throw them into the abyss as we are resurrected into new life. Lord, we pray that all unfaithfulness have been broken of all ungodly soul ties, taken away all legal rights and access from all powers of the Kingdom of Darkness, we have renounced and come out of agreement with them, denounced from them, and divorced from them and declare that you have full dominion over my life and my bloodline, in the name of Jesus. From the New Covenant you have promised us, which includes the blood of Jesus Christ purifying us from all sins and iniquities of unfaithfulness and resurrecting us into new life, as well as being justified of our sins and saved by the wrath of God, and writing the Word of God, which is Jesus engraved in our hearts and minds. Therefore Lord, we ask for a clean slate of faithfulness and loyal redeemers in our lives and we ask this prayer be sealed by the blood of Jesus Christ, in the name of Jesus. Lord, we pray you have remission and pretermission over all sins and iniquities of unfaithfulness, in the Mighty name of Jesus. Amen!
See you next Monday!
