2. RUTH - PROVISIONS

2. RUTH - PROVISIONS

SEEK GOD’S WORD FOR TRUTH

Read the following passage:

 RUTH 1:19-22

When Ruth and Naomi arrive in Bethlehem how are they received?

 

What is Naomi’s attitude? Whom does she blame for her misfortunes?

 

Read the following passage:

RUTH 2:1-3

Describe Ruth’s plan to take care of her mother-in-law.

 

Who owned the field where she worked? Who was he?

 

Read the following passage:

RUTH 2:8-13

What did the landowner offer her and why?

 

What is Ruth’s response?

 

FIND GOD’S WAYS FOR YOU

When you are faced with life’s misfortunes or even the everyday “calamities,” how do you respond?

 

Whom do you blame? Why?

 

Do you identify with either Ruth or Naomi? Why?

 

Read the following verse:

Work with enthusiasm, as though you were working for the Lord rather than for people.

                                                                                                                         EPHESIANS 6:7

 

Ruth accepted the circumstances that had placed her in a humbling, subservient position. What does Ephesians 6:7 say about serving?

 

STOP AND PONDER

Read Ephesians 6:7 again. What kind of servant are you?
