Ruth: The Bridegrooms Love for the Church Revealed (Spiritled Woman Studies)
And the story turned out well, for the close relative would not marry Ruth lest it would ruin his own inheritance. So Ruth obtained the desired end she had proposed: She got to marry Boaz. The people and elders who were at the city gate pronounced a blessing on the bride and bridegroom that was prophetic: In time, Boaz and Ruth had a son, Obed. Naomi was able to become a nurse to Obed, and the women of Israel blessed the Lord for her happiness: And those who do well will reap the result of their actions.
Boaz and Ruth had great respect for one another, as well as kind and uplifting words for each other. It is a good example of nobility and character. Ruth left her people, her family and her culture. Ruth vowed that she would not be parted from Naomi under an oath to the Lord. Things probably looked bleak for Ruth at times, but the mercy of God worked out all things for her. God will work out our future for us as well. We must also be willing to forsake all everything we have.
Ruth forsook her pagan homeland and its pagan gods, and chose the true God as her God!

Even though I enjoy high-speed roller coasters, there is something about hurling through stormy skies in a commercial jetliner at 37, feet that turns my knuckles white. This is why I always ask for a window seat.
Whenever we hit rough air and the seat belt sign flashes on, I feel safer if I can look outside. But that didn't help me last week when I was flying into Canada. All I knew was that our journey through Canadian airspace reminded me of Doctor Doom's Fearfall—a theme park ride I have enjoyed many times with my daughters.
To get there you first must travel on a two-lane highway from Chiquimula, then turn onto a one-lane dirt road that winds precariously for two miles up a mountain. The scenery is spectacular, but if you look too long you might drive right off the side of a cliff. It's best to wait until you arrive at the top to enjoy the view.

Maranatha Campus Ministries was a vibrant outreach to college campuses. It was founded in Kentucky during the Jesus movement by a passionate charismatic couple, Bob and Rose Weiner, who eventually started churches on more than 50 American universities. In its heyday in the Reagan era, students from Maranatha took the gospel around the world.
Getting "drunk in the Holy Spirit" has been a popular concept in some churches. But is it biblical? A few years ago a traveling charismatic minister from the West coast passed through Florida to conduct a series of renewal meetings. I'd never heard of the guy, but the rumor was that he carried a "special" anointing. It was unique, that's for sure-especially when he took the microphone, slurred his words as if intoxicated and leaned to the left of the pulpit as if he were about to fall over.

Then, in between some bizarre spasms, he would shout what sounded like " Walla walla bing bang! His message didn't make sense. But if he had just said " Ding Dong Bell " or " Yabba Dabba Doo " over and over, some people in his meetings would have run to the front of the room and swooned, even though he never opened his Bible during his message. They wanted what this man claimed to possess—an anointing to become "drunk in the Spirit.
Last month God used a poor pastor from Malawi to challenge my suburban American priorities. When I arrived in Nairobi, Kenya, last month to conduct a women's conference, my host, a journalist named Gideon, mentioned that my "pastor friend from Malawi" was waiting to see me. I was surprised to hear this, since I wasn't aware that I had a pastor friend from Malawi. I've never been to that country and I didn't remember talking to anyone from there.
In Uganda and Kenya, where polygamy is common, Christians are defending the Bible while we disdain it. Two weeks ago when I was speaking in a women's conference in Kampala, Uganda, I asked the women to raise their hands if they grew up in a polygamous home. A majority of the hands went up.

Then I asked how many wives lived in their father's home. We can learn an important lesson from the East African Revival, which transformed a region 80 years ago. The people of Uganda call it Balokole. In the Luganda language it means "the saved ones," but the word became synonymous with the East African Revival—one of the most significant Christian movements in modern history. This revival had humble beginnings in September , just before America's Great Depression. Historians trace it to a prayer meeting on Namirembe Hill in Kampala, Uganda, where a missionary to Rwanda, Joe Church, prayed and read the Bible for two days with his friend Simeoni Nsibambi.
They felt God had showed them that the African church was powerless because of a lack of personal holiness. Pastor Medad Birungi was the least likely man to engineer a spiritual rebirth in the tradition-bound Church of Uganda. Raised in a polygamous home his alcoholic father had six wives and 32 children , Birungi suffered horrible trauma, rejection and poverty.
But he had a dramatic encounter with the Holy Spirit while he was a college student, and his moment of renewal is still having ripple effects throughout Uganda and the world. Birungi was a religious Anglican before this experience. He despised Pentecostals and viewed them as sheep-stealers and misguided pretenders. But while he was performing with a choir on a conference stage near Kampala in , he felt strangely compelled to run outside to pray.
He was then literally arrested by the power of God. He fell to the ground and spoke in tongues for three hours. An impressive collection of framed covers of Charisma decorate a hall around the corner from my office. Visitors often stop to admire the nostalgic lineup, which includes a issue featuring healing evangelist Kathryn Kuhlman and a cover of South African theologian David du Plessis.
These magazines offer a panoramic view of the history of the charismatic movement—warts and all. As much as I love to remember the old days—and to appreciate the spiritual giants we featured at times—it is painful when I realize that some people we wrote about did not finish well. Several dozen Christian leaders met in a cramped room overlooking the place where terrorists destroyed the tallest monument to America's financial power and killed more than 2, people in the process.
Flags in the city flew at half-mast while a drizzling rain made the gray mood even more somber.
