God Acts In Seemingly Hopeless Situations As Our

Redeemer

Bible Reading: Ruth 3

Summary: Already in Ruth, the grace of God is evident. From

the marriage of Boaz and Ruth of Bethlehem, a son was born,

Obed, who was the grandfather of King David, to whom God

again confirmed His covenant. In the “bitter” Naomi's seemingly

hopeless situation, a dead end, God brought His Kingdom plan to

fulfilment. God led Naomi, the widow who was without bread,

to Bethlehem, which means house of bread, and cared for her.

The Holy Spirit describes to us how the coming of the Messiah

was prepared. God’s plan ensured that Jesus Christ, our

Redeemer, was born, the One who would bring the ultimate rest.
