Jer 50:34

Their Redeemer is strong; the Lord of hosts is His name. He will thoroughly plead their case...

We are in a series at the moment on Ruth. She was a young, poor and childless widow in the Old Testament who at one point in the story comes to lie at the feet of Boaz, her potential kinsman-redeemer. (Ruth 3:7) As a rich and close relative of her in-laws, Boaz had the power to redeem her from her plight.

Boaz is a picture of Jesus who is our kinsman-redeemer. He is our kinsman, having been born into this world as one like us. And He is our Redeemer because He redeemed us at a great price when He shed His blood for us on the cross.

As your Redeemer, not only is Jesus willing, but He also has the power to restore to you all that you have lost. That is why you can go to Him and say, “I blew it and now my family is suffering. My finances are a disaster.. But I come to You, my kinsman-redeemer…” And you will find that He will redeem you because your Redeemer is strong. The Lord of hosts is His name. He will thoroughly plead your case, causing only blessings of wisdom, deliverance, restoration, provision and liberty to come out of your situation!

Rather than going through today with the heavy weight of worry on your shoulders turn to Jesus and thank Him that His redemption is super abundant and more than enough. God is for you today in every detail of every circumstance!
