Grace For You Today! – March 17, 2025
Knowing the Father of Glory brings abundant blessings as you rest in Him!
“Then Naomi her mother-in-law said to her, ‘My daughter, shall I not seek security for you, that it may be well with you?’”
— Ruth 3:1 (NKJV)
Ruth experienced more hardship than joy in her early life. She became a widow at a young age and, as a Moabite, was an outsider among the Israelites. Yet, despite her losses, she chose to remain with her mother-in-law, Naomi, dedicating herself to serve her.
Ruth had spent her life toiling, but God desired to bring her into His rest. In today’s devotional verse, Naomi takes it upon herself to find “security” for Ruth. The Hebrew word for “security” is manowach, which means a resting place, quiet rest, a settled home. This concept of manowach also carries the idea of divine security and blessing.
Beloved, the Holy Spirit desires for you to enter into manowach—a rest that frees you from human striving, as you trust in Jesus, who has already toiled on your behalf. This week, may the Lord bring you into His rest so that you can receive His best. His rest is your security—your future is secure in Him.
When Ruth listened to Naomi and embraced this rest, she received sixfold blessings. So shall it be with you this week, in Jesus’ name!
Amen!
Praise Jesus, our RIGHTEOUSNESS!
