Well, hey there!
I'm so thankful you're here for this episode and I hope you stick around all the way to the end, because there is a very special blessing I'd like to share with you and speak over you as a prayer.
And here's a link to share any prayer requests (or to check out the Psalm 91 Pray It & Believe audio course or for an all-access pass to the latest prayer retreat online event), just visit JanLBurt.com & an option to text your prayer requests will be right there on your screen. I'd be honored to pray for you!
The book of Ruth begins with a heartbreaking story of loss and pain and moves on to a story of redemption and blessing.
It truly is one of the most beautiful tales the Bible has to tell.
Rather than have lengthy show notes for this episode, I'll just share some verses from the book of Ruth and allow you to listen to the podcast and be blessed by the message from today's text.
God has good for you, and I hope today's show is encouraging! I so appreciate you joining me and taking a look at God's promises and blessings for His people in this part of the "Every Book A Promise" series on the podcast!
Ruth 1:1-5 NLT
In the days when the judges ruled in Israel, a severe famine came upon the land. So a man from Bethlehem in Judah left his home and went to live in the country of Moab, taking his wife and two sons with him. The man’s name was Elimelech, and his wife was Naomi. Their two sons were Mahlon and Kilion. They were Ephrathites from Bethlehem in the land of Judah. And when they reached Moab, they settled there.
Then Elimelech died, and Naomi was left with her two sons. The two sons married Moabite women. One married a woman named Orpah, and the other a woman named Ruth. But about ten years later, both Mahlon and Kilion died. This left Naomi alone, without her two sons or her husband.
Ruth 2:12 NLT
May the Lord, the God of Israel, under whose wings you have come to take refuge, reward you fully for what you have done.
Ruth 4:11-12 NLT
Then the elders and all the people standing in the gate replied, “We are witnesses! May the Lord make this woman who is coming into your home like Rachel and Leah, from whom all the nation of Israel descended! May you prosper in Ephrathah and be famous in Bethlehem. And may the Lord give you descendants by this young woman who will be like those of our ancestor Perez, the son of Tamar and Judah.”
