TOPIC: LESSON FROM NAOMI AND RUTH. Be Good To Your Helpers (13)
MEMORY VERSE:
Psalms 32:8.
“8. I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye.”
BIBLE READING:
Ruth 3:1-3.
“1. Then Naomi her mother in law said unto her, My daughter, shall I not seek rest for thee, that it may be well with thee?”
“2. And now is not Boaz of our kindred, with whose maidens thou wast? Behold, he winnoweth barley to night in the threshing floor.”
“3. Wash thyself therefore, and anoint thee, and put thy raiment upon thee, and get thee down to the floor: but make not thyself known unto the man, until he shall have done eating and drinking.”
Everyone desires to be rewarded for their sacrifice of love not to be enslaved.
How selfless are you in giving freedom to your servants? How far can you go to be kind enough to those who served you wholeheartedly? Ruth, a good and kind hearted daughter in-law, brought home what she had gleaned. Naomi was happy when she got to know Ruth worked in Boaz farm. She felt it’s time to allowed her have a home and gave her instructions on how to present herself to Boaz as a good wife to be. Most times, we refuse to release our good, faithful and useful servants or helpers. We find it difficult to let them have access to opportunities in order to keep them enslaved, that wasn’t the case with Naomi. She made sure she instructed Ruth and succeeded in making her a wife to Boaz.
If you are not freed from where you served, you can’t be a leader. Even if you were enslaved you don’t need to do the same to others, do what is right, give people opportunities to be on their own. Show them how to fish and stop giving them fish, it will always add honour to your life like Naomi did. Naomi was willing to let Ruth have her home despite being the only helper she has, you can do the same by rewarding them awesomely.
