In this chapter Ruth goes out to the threshing floor at night. Boaz is apparently sleeping there all alone. And she uncovers his feet. The plan, devised by Naomi, seems to have pronounced sexual overtones. And yet it would seem that both Ruth and Boaz's high moral fibre ensure that this becomes the moments in which they reveal their intent to marry.

Meet Him at the Threshing Floor - February 9, 2025 by Jesus the Good Shepherd Anglican Church

Book of Ruth | Ruth and Boaz on the Threshing Floor (Pt.4) by Gathering Place Church

 This week, I heard a powerful song, Threshing Floor by Steven McWhirter and Housefires, and it stirred something deep in me. The threshing floor is a place of separation and revelation—a place where repentance happens and restoration begins. In this episode, we dive into Matthew 3:12 and the story of David in 2 Samuel 24, reflecting on what it means to lay everything before God. I share personal lessons from my week—trusting God with small beginnings, pressing into humility in marriage, and embracing creative flow as worship. Be encouraged to surrender, worship, and let the Holy Spirit refine your heart. You are seen, and you are not alone.

This Sunday December 15, 2024, Pastor Matt Chewning continued our advent sermon series and read from Ruth chapter 3.

The Bible is full of people who do surprisingly bold things through faith, and God blesses them. When our plans are in alignment with God's will, it's okay to be bold! In Ruth 3, Naomi and Ruth hatch a plan for carrying out God's redemption of their family. Ruth approaches Boaz with boldness, and the rest is history. Ruth, a Moabite woman, would go on to be included in the lineage of Christ through Boaz (Matt. 1:5). Take-Home Message– Commit your work to the Lord, and your plans will be established. Naomi's Plan (1-5)Ruth's Bold Move (6-9)Boaz's Response (10-15)Ruth Returns to Naomi (16-18) Lessons from Ruth 3Watch while you wait (2).Listen while you wait (5).Take bold action when God opens the door (7b-9).Remember God's deliverance (13). Message: Ruth and Boaz at the Threshing Floor Scripture: Ruth 3:1-18 Simple.

Today we continue our study of the book of Ruth.  In chapter 3, we learn that Boaz is an honorable man who is looking out for Ruth and Naomi's best interests and shows unconditional love, just as Jesus does for us.  

The book of Ruth is one of the greatest short stories ever written. Whether you relate to Naomi's loss, Ruth's loyalty, or Boaz's love, there is something for everyone in the book of Ruth. But in the end, it's a little story which advances God's bigger story — highlighting how he mysteriously works through seemingly insignificant people and mundane circumstances in order to accomplish his divine plan.

Responding faithfully to God comes at a cost.

This sermon delves into the importance of trusting God's mercy and letting go of control. It highlights the story of David, who after sinning by taking a census, throws himself on God's mercy, understanding that God's grace is greater than any human effort or judgment. The message encourages listeners to release their burdens, offenses, and unforgiveness to God, trusting in His redemptive power. It concludes with a call to embrace the Lord's mercy and experience healing, forgiveness, and breakthrough through surrender. Here are three questions this sermon answers: 1. Why is it important to trust in God's mercy rather than rely on human strength? 2. How can we let go of burdens such as unforgiveness or control? 3. What does it mean to confess our sins and experience God's redemption? From Chapel Valley Church in Madison, Wi, Guest Speaker Cheyne Jackson shares the word of God

"Restoring the Remnant" is our sermon series through Micah. "The Remnant as a Threshing Floor for God's Harvest" is the fifth sermon in this series. Micah continues to promise that the kingdoms of Israel and Judah would eventually be conquered and exiled. But there's a more noticeable language of hope in his prophecies as he begins to foretell of a coming King who would save a remnant. Not only would a remnant of Israel be restored and saved, but all nations would come to Jerusalem as a threshing floor for God's harvest.

Ruth 3, Ruth and Boaz at the Threshing Floor. Series: Book of Ruth. Type: Sermon

Ruth at the Threshing Floor (Ruth): Character matters. In this broken world, will you find yourself in a compromising situation from time to time? Absolutely. What will you do? Will you compromise yourself and follow the ways of the world? Or will you trust in the Lord and honor him with your life and the commitment of your character? Recorded on Aug 18, 2024, on Ruth 3:1-18 by Pastor David Parks. This sermon is part of the series Ruth: The Love of a Redeemer. In the Bible, the book of Ruth tells the story of a family that experienced a series of bitter tragedies. But through loyalty, integrity, and faithful love (hesed), they find unexpected redemption, restoration, and hope. Our God is a redeemer. Sermon Transcript So, all month, we're working through a series on the OT book of Ruth called The Love of a Redeemer. As we've seen so far, Ruth is all about facing the bitter tragedies of life by leaning on the hesed, or the steadfast loving-kindness of God, but also on the men and women in our lives who have the character and integrity to reflect this kind of redeeming love to us. As Justun said last week, the Bible, from cover to cover, is a redemption story. And sometimes, the people of the Bible reflect the redemptive love that God ultimately gave us through Jesus. Of course, very often, the people of the Bible (and perhaps other people in our lives today) do not reflect God's love or godly character. But Ruth provides several good models for us to learn from. In Act 1, we saw Ruth, a foreign (Moabite) woman, model this hesed-style love to her mother-in-law, Naomi, after their husbands died. We saw this in Ruth's incredible declaration of loyalty and commitment to Naomi and then in her willingness to leave her people and her gods and return to Bethlehem with Naomi to love and care for her. Last week, in Act 2, we saw Boaz model this hesed-style love for Ruth and Naomi. Boaz protected Ruth as she worked in his field and generously provided food for them. Today, in Act 3 of our play, we'll see if this loyalty and kindness, this protection and provision, might become something more for Boaz and Ruth. But the lead characters of our play find themselves in a seemingly sketchy situation that is a real test of their integrity. How would they respond? Will they compromise themselves, following the ways of the world? Or will they trust in the Lord and honor him with their lives and the commitment of their character? If you have your Bible/app, please open it to Ruth 3:1. Act 3, scene 1. Ruth 3:1–6 (NIV), “1 One day Ruth's mother-in-law Naomi said to her, “My daughter, I must find a home for you, where you will be well provided for. 2 Now Boaz, with whose women you have worked, is a relative of ours. Tonight he will be winnowing barley on the threshing floor. 3 Wash, put on perfume, and get dressed in your best clothes. Then go down to the threshing floor, but don't let him know you are there until he has finished eating and drinking. 4 When he lies down, note the place where he is lying. Then go and uncover his feet and lie down. He will tell you what to do.” 5 “I will do whatever you say,” Ruth answered. 6 So she went down to the threshing floor and did everything her mother-in-law told her to do.” So, we're not sure exactly how much time has passed here since Ruth and Naomi arrived from Moab. Chapter 1 ends with a transitional note from our narrator that they arrived in Bethlehem just as the barley harvest was starting. Then, Ruth providentially gleaned in the fields of Boaz during the harvest. Historically, the barley harvest would start in mid-May and would continue with the wheat harvest through the end of June. Now, here, perhaps sometime in July, the harvest was done, and the operation turned to winnow the grain on the threshing floor to separate the grain from the chaff. Bethlehem, which, as we said, meant “house of bread,” was filling back up. Now, harvest time was really hard work.

In this episode of the Threshing Floor on Winnowed Warrior, the team engages in an in-depth discussion of 1 John Chapter 2: 15-17, focusing on the theme of not loving the world and the ongoing spiritual battle between good and evil.They explore the implications of these themes through various lenses, including personal styles, hobbies, and work-related matters. The team also delves into writing techniques, highlighting the use of tense in creating engaging content.Key discussions include the spiritual implications of retirement, the challenge of balancing worldly possessions and activities with spiritual growth, and the importance of resisting temptation through faith and scripture.Join us for a rich, multifaceted conversation that bridges scripture with everyday life challenges, offering insights and reflections to deepen your spiritual journey.

A message from Pastor Sherwood Lancaster In today's sermon, we delved into 2 Samuel 6, focusing on David's journey to bring the Ark of the Covenant back to Jerusalem. The Ark, representing God's manifest presence, was lost to the Philistines due to Israel's negligence. David, a man after God's own heart, was determined to restore the Ark to its rightful place. Despite his passion and desire for God's presence, David made a critical error by transporting the Ark on a new cart, mimicking the Philistines' method rather than following God's instructions. This led to a tragic incident where Uzzah, in an attempt to steady the Ark, was struck down by God for his disobedience. The sermon emphasized the importance of not taking God's presence for granted and the necessity of following His ways rather than adopting worldly methods. David's initial failure and subsequent fear led him to leave the Ark at Obed-Edom's house, where it brought blessings. This period of reflection allowed David to regain his passion and desire for God's presence, ultimately leading him to retrieve the Ark correctly. The message also highlighted the concept of the threshing floor, a place of separation where God refines us by removing the unusable parts of our lives. Just as David faced a pothole on his journey, we too encounter obstacles that serve as opportunities for God to purify and prepare us for our destiny. The sermon concluded with a call to regain our passion and desire for God, encouraging us to rise again despite past failures and to pursue our God-given purpose with renewed vigor. ### Key Takeaways 1. **The Presence of God Should Not Be Taken for Granted**: Just as Israel lost the Ark due to negligence, we risk losing God's presence when we take it for granted. God's presence is not a given; it requires reverence and obedience. We must prioritize His presence above our plans and routines, ensuring that we seek Him earnestly and follow His ways. 2. **Passion and Desire for God Are Essential**: David was a man after God's own heart because of his unwavering passion and desire for God's presence. Despite his flaws and failures, David's heart was always inclined towards God. This teaches us that our relationship with God should be driven by a deep, genuine desire to seek Him above all else. 3. **Worldly Methods Cannot Usher in God's Presence**: David's mistake of using a new cart, a method borrowed from the Philistines, underscores the danger of adopting worldly practices in our spiritual walk. God's instructions are clear, and we must follow them rather than conforming to the world's ways. True worship and service to God must align with His commands, not our convenience. 4. **The Threshing Floor as a Place of Refinement**: The threshing floor represents a place where God separates the usable from the unusable in our lives. Just as David encountered a pothole before reaching the threshing floor, we too face challenges that serve to refine us. These moments of separation are crucial for our spiritual growth and preparation for God's purposes. 5. **Restoring Passion and Desire After Failure**: David's journey teaches us that failure is not the end. After losing the Ark and experiencing a period of reflection, David regained his passion and desire for God. Similarly, we must not let past mistakes or setbacks deter us. God calls us to rise again, reclaim our passion, and continue pursuing our divine destiny with renewed determination.
