Follow the instructions to the letter

“And it shall be, when he lieth down, that thou shalt mark the place where he shall lie, and thou shalt go in, and uncover his feet, and lay thee down; and he will tell thee what thou shalt do. And she said unto her, All that thou sayest unto me I will do. And she went down unto the floor, and did according to all that her mother in law bade her.” Ruth 3:4-6 KJV https://www.bible.com/1/rut.3.4-6.Kjv In today’s Bible reading, we see that Naomi had guided Ruth on how to present herself to Boaz in the hope that he would marry her. It is important to note that success in that assignment was hinged in Ruth executing Naomi’s instruction to the letter, following the process as laid out as timing was key. Often, the Holy Spirit out guide lays certain instructions in our hearts to execute. However we sometimes start to process and modify the instructions to suit ourselves and yet we complain that we do not get the reward. We must follow the instructions we receive as the Bible reminds us that God uses the foolish things of this world to confound the wise. Your rest is hinged on your obedience to divine instruction including the timing of execution. Don’t run faster than your guide and on the flip side do not delay the execution.

Prayer: Dear Lord, thank you for the HolySpirit who guides and instructs us. Please give me the grace to do as instructed that I may enter into my rest. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾.kjv
