Naomi journeyed back to Judah's territory to fulfil her purpose.

 Shabbat Shalom from Kent, London - 28Mar2025

Reference Scripture: Ruth 1:6

Naomi and Daughter-in-laws began to walk back along the road to the Terrority of JUDAH.

When Naomi heard in Moab that the LORD had come to the HELP/AID of HIS People by providing Food for them in Famine. She and her daughters-in-law prepared to return Home from there!

Famine forces Elimelek, Naomi, Mahlon and Kilion to vacate HOMELAND, went to live for approximately 10+ years in the country of Moab. 

The Life was not easy for them! Naomi's husband and sons died, no reasons mentioned. The Ephrathites experience in Bethlehem in Judah dried. The Land of living brought another level of dryness in the family. Both outside and inside are pretty much same experience in terms of dryness. They faced challenges both Internally and externally in terms of famine, sorrows and Losses. 

Moving from HOMELAND for living is a difficult decision to make, however often the new place may not be the way we expected!.

3 life lessons observed from this scripture, she kept her #1updated, what was going on, at the land of Moab and the HOMELAND (Jerusalem/ Bethlehem). She #2decided to make make a #3progress by not blaming the decisions of the PAST! She got herself together- She kept things simple, tidy and up-to-date. Many times we destroy ourselves in our thoughts, words with low-self esteem. 

She heard that the LORD had been pleased to visit His people. YHWH had come to the help, blessed HIS people in Judah by giving them Good crops again! Her eagerness to get the updates made her to realise that the ADONAI had attended His people by providing them the food.

The Lord visited His people- this is the headlines. HE had taken care, paid attention, come to help, relief, looked after HIS people to give bread. The LORD had seen to HIS people's need. Elohim had considered, reviewed HIS people, looked upon their situations and remembered them by visiting and providing the way for them. 

On her way back, she shared her plans with her immediate circles, given them room to make a call to join her- She accepted who decided to come with her to face the future with the Heavenly Father! Ruth aligned with Naomi, which fulfilled God's plan to meet Boaz, to give birth to Obed then leading to Jesse, David lineage formed up to Jesus!

Let us thank God for the trusted people that we have in our circles. We know that not all of them shall stay until the end. Let us not dwell in the past but begin to walk to the road leading the future to fulfil our purpose in Christ Jesus. 

Peace be Upon the State of the Israel and us. Shalom. Have a Great weekend.

In His Grip.

Boldness

Boldness Reference: Heb 4:12-16 We do not have to tiptoe toward God. We can always enter His presence—not only when in need, full, or facing challenges. His Word pierces soul and spirit, joints and marrow. He knows our thoughts and intentions before we ask or think. So the author of Hebrews urges us: boldly approach the throne of Grace. Receive daily bread, seasonal help, mercies, and Grace He has already arranged. In time of need, at the right time, He will help us. As Peter assured, submit obediently in His hand. Confidence: Not because the week went well. Not because your prayers feel mature. Because the curtain tore. Confidence isn't arrogance. It's knowing God left the door open.  The barrier didn't get thin—it split wide open. The King on the throne is also our High Priest. He knows our weakness from the inside. We are not interrupting Him. We have been invited. Gentle invitation. Urgent invitation. If Grace finds us and fills the room, what happens to the pressure to...

The Lifestyle of David - Faith, Trust and Prayer

The Lifestyle of David - Faith, Trust and Prayer Reference - 1 Sam 17, Ps 59 and 2 Sam 15 David was known as a man after God’s own heart, as witnessed by God Himself. The Bible reveals many reasons for this, but one of the most notable is his unwavering faith—trusting God completely and placing all his hope in the One who is more than able to guide him. I would like to discuss three scenarios and observe his responses to inspire our faith and draw us closer to Him. 1) When the Israelite army fled from Goliath, David stood his ground, boldly declaring the giant’s defeat before the fight even began, trusting entirely in the Name of the Lord rather than physical weapons. With a single stone, David struck Goliath down, vindicated God’s Name, routed the Philistine army, and proved to all that the battle belongs to the Lord. He proclaimed victory before the clash, relying not on spear, sword, or javelin, but on the Lord’s power. David said, in 1 Sam 17:45-47, “You come against me with sword,...

Prayer is tactical, transactional and transformative practice in the Bible.

Yes, prayer in the Bible is indeed **tactical**, **transactional**, and **transformative**. Each of these aspects highlights a different dimension of prayer, showing its depth and power in the life of a believer. Let’s explore these three dimensions with biblical examples and insights: --- ### **1. Prayer is Tactical** Prayer is a **spiritual weapon** and a strategic tool in the believer’s life. It is used to engage in spiritual warfare, seek God’s guidance, and advance His kingdom. - **Biblical Example**: **Ephesians 6:18**     Paul instructs believers to "pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests." This is part of the "armor of God," showing that prayer is a tactical weapon in spiritual battles.    - **Application**:     Prayer is not passive; it is an active, intentional practice to combat evil, break strongholds, and bring God’s will to earth. It is a way to align ourselves with God’s strategies and overcome th...
