Jij 21:25

Does anyone reading this have someone who will always go the extra mile for you? Maybe it's your best friend, a family member, or neighbor. No matter what, this person is LOYAL to you, and you're thankful to have them in your life! Join us as we journey through the life of Ruth. She is known for living a life of loyalty, and God blesses her tremendously in return!

When we hear the name Gideon, most of us think about his 300 soldiers or a fleece spread beneath the evening sky. But Gideon's story is so much bigger than that. This is a story about God and His people—His love for them, as well as His strength operating in spite of, even through, their weakness.

Ruth is the story of a brave and humble woman. It is also the story of death, immigration, poverty, bitterness, and loneliness. Through it all the sovereignty of God brings about His purposes as He moves the narrative from death to life, barrenness to fruitfulness, cursing to blessing, bitterness to worship, loneliness to community, and frustration to answered prayer. In the end, Ruth and her story point us to Jesus.

The books of Joshua, Judges, and Ruth detail powerful stories of God’s sovereignty as he led his people from wilderness wanderers to conquering heroes, revealing himself as the heavenly Joshua, holy Judge, and merciful Kinsman-Redeemer. These seven devotions will inspire you with fresh vision, bold faith, and renewed passion to possess God’s plan for you.
