Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Nobody does it like your early body praise party. I
- 0:03Speaker 1: am Sherry Mackett. It's time for today's word. When Fava
- 0:08Speaker 1: finds you, Ruth two and five says, Then Boaz acts
- 0:13Speaker 1: the foreman. Who is that young woman over there? Who
- 0:16Speaker 1: does she belong to? You know, there are moments in
- 0:20Speaker 1: life when it seems like no one sees the effort
- 0:23Speaker 1: you're putting in, the prayers you've whispered, the sacrifices you've made,
- 0:28Speaker 1: the faith you've held on to in the quiet well,
- 0:31Speaker 1: Ruth understood that feeling. She wasn't from Israel. She was
- 0:36Speaker 1: a Moabite widow trying to survive in a foreign land.
- 0:40Speaker 1: Each morning, she rolls early, humble and hungry to gather
- 0:45Speaker 1: the leftover grain from Boaz's field, just enough to feed
- 0:49Speaker 1: herself and her mother in law, Naoi. Nothing about her
- 0:55Speaker 1: situation looked promising. She was working hard, but for yet.
- 1:01Speaker 1: What Ruth didn't realize was that God was already orchestrating
- 1:07Speaker 1: something behind the scenes that she wasn't aware of. In
- 1:10Speaker 1: one ordinary moment, Boas looked across that field and he asks,
- 1:15Speaker 1: who is that woman? That question changed everything. He wanted
- 1:20Speaker 1: to know who she belonged to you. See, when God's
- 1:24Speaker 1: favor is on your life, he knows how to get
- 1:26Speaker 1: the right people to notice you at the right time.
- 1:29Speaker 1: You won't have to strive, you don't have to manipulate,
- 1:32Speaker 1: you don't have to force open a door. The blessing
- 1:35Speaker 1: will find you right where you are. Ruth's faithfulness in
- 1:38Speaker 1: the field positioned her for a miracle. What started as
- 1:41Speaker 1: a day of routine labor turned into a divine appointment
- 1:45Speaker 1: that shifted the course of her destiny. See, Ruth didn't
- 1:49Speaker 1: find food that day. What she found was favor come
- 1:52Speaker 1: on Jesus, and that favor lifted her from gleaning in
- 1:56Speaker 1: the field to own. In that same field, she went
- 1:58Speaker 1: from overlooked to overflowing. That's what happens, y'all when God
- 2:03Speaker 1: connects you with the right people at the right time.
- 2:06Speaker 1: So you keep being faithful, you keep showing up, You
- 2:09Speaker 1: keep sowing in the field that God has placed you in,
- 2:13Speaker 1: even when it feels like it's going unnoticed. Your consistency
- 2:17Speaker 1: is building your testimony. Whoo or The eyes of Boaz
- 2:21Speaker 1: weren't just human eyes. They represented God's timing, his grace,
- 2:25Speaker 1: and his divine set up. When favor finds you, everything
- 2:31Speaker 1: in your life will change. Father God, thank you that
- 2:34Speaker 1: even when we feel unseen and overlooked, you are always
- 2:38Speaker 1: working behind the scenes on our behalf. Thank you for
- 2:41Speaker 1: divine connections, for favor that can't be explained, for blessings
- 2:46Speaker 1: that are already in motion. God, we trust your timing
- 2:49Speaker 1: and we believe that you're positioning us for something greater.
- 2:53Speaker 1: In Jesus' name. Now that's your word for today. Take
- 2:56Speaker 1: it applied to your everyday life, and you continue to
- 2:58Speaker 1: be encouraged and inspired. It is your early morning praise party.
