Caption transcript for Ruth: “Virtuous Woman” (5/8)

• 00:06 IT WAS A JOURNEY NO ONE EXPECTED.
• 00:10 FAMINE IN JUDAH HAD BROUGHT THEM TOGETHER IN MOAB
• 00:13 AND NOW...
• 00:15 NOTHING COULD TEAR THEM APART.
• 00:19 FOR NAOMI THE RETURN TO BETHLEHEM WAS A BITTER ONE.
• 00:23 BEHIND HER LAY HER HUSBAND AND TWO SONS BURIED IN FOREIGN SOIL.
• 00:29 FOR RUTH...
• 00:31 A NEW LAND...
• 00:34 A NEW PEOPLE...
• 00:36 A REDEEMER...
• 00:39 AN EXTRAORDINARY JOURNEY OF UNYIELDING DEVOTION.
• 00:42 A LOVE STORY FOR THE AGES.
• 00:56 SHALOM AND WELCOME TO OUR SHOW.
• 00:57 I'M MYLES...
• 00:58 THIS IS KATHARINE
• 00:59 WE WANT TO WELCOME YOU
• 01:00 TO OUR SERIES
• 01:01 ON "RUTH:YOUR PEOPLE SHALL BE MY PEOPLE"
• 01:04 THIS IS A STORY OF ROMANCE.
• 01:06 IT'S A STORY OF REDEMPTION.
• 01:08 AND WE'VE BEEN WATCHING THE TENSION BUILD
• 01:10 AS BOAZ AND RUTH ARE COMING TOGETHER.
• 01:13 BUT NOW WE SAW IN OUR LAST SHOW
• 01:15 THAT THERE'S THIS OTHER KINSMAN
• 01:17 WHO MAY GET IN THE WAY OF THEM COMING TOGETHER.
• 01:20 RIGHT...
• 01:21 WELL GOD DEFINITELY GIVES THIS
• 01:22 TO ALL CHALLENGES IN OUR LIFE
• 01:24 WHERE WE HAVE TO TRUST HIM
• 01:25 EVEN WHEN WE DON'T SEE THE WHOLE PICTURE.
• 01:28 WE HAVE TO COME TO A PLACE OF FAITH
• 01:29 TO KNOW THAT GOD'S GOING TO BRING OUT THE BEST FOR US.
• 01:32 IT'S REALLY TRUE.
• 01:33 SOME PEOPLE HAVE CALLED THIS "THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO RUTH"
• 01:36 BECAUSE THERE'S SO MANY PICTURES OF MESSIAH
• 01:39 AND SO MANY PICTURES OF THE KINGDOM IN THIS STORY.
• 01:42 SO LET'S GET BACK TO OUR STORY
• 01:44 AS WE SEE RUTH AND BOAZ CONTINUE AND GET THROUGH
• 01:47 THE TENSION THAT HAS BEEN BUILDING.
• 02:48 SO NAOMI SAYS TO RUTH,
• 03:04 NOW IT WAS A LITTLE BIT OF A SCHEME
• 03:05 BUT BEHIND THE SCHEME IS ALSO A BEAUTIFUL PICTURE
• 03:09 OF WHAT GOD INTENDS US TO DO TO POSSESS OUR INHERITANCE.
• 03:13 SHE GOES IN AND SHE LAYS AT HIS FEET AND THEN UNCOVERS HIS FEET.
• 03:19 THERE'S SOMETHING ABOUT THE FEET THAT GOD SPEAKS TO US ABOUT
• 03:23 BECAUSE ISNT THAT WHERE WE GO IN AND POSSESS OUR INHERITANCE
• 03:27 AT THE FEET OF JESUS OR OUR MESSIAH, YESHUA?
• 03:30 THROUGH THIS PICTURE NAOMI TELLS RUTH,
• 03:33 "WASH YOURSELF; ANOINT YOURSELF, PUT ON YOUR GARMENT".
• 03:38 I HEAR THROUGH THE SCRIPTURE
• 03:40 THE WASHING OF THE WATER OF THE WORD,
• 03:42 THE ANOINTING THAT COMES THROUGH THE HOLY SPIRIT IN OUR LIVES
• 03:45 AND THE GARMENTS THAT GOD GIVES US TO BE ABLE TO COME BEFORE THE KING.
• 03:50 THERE'S ALSO PICTURE IN THE BOOK OF ESTHER...
• 03:53 THIS SAME DISPLAY
• 03:55 OF THE INHERITANCE] THAT GOD WANTS FOR US
• 03:57 OF GETTING READY TO ASK OUR KING, OUR REDEEMER, OUR LORD
• 04:03 WHAT WE NEED FOR OUR INHERITANCE.
• 04:05 SO LET'S REMEMBER TO KEEP OURSELVES WASHED IN THE WORD...
• 04:09 TO KEEP OURSELVES FULL OF THE HOLY SPIRIT...
• 04:11 AND TO BE READY TO WEAR THE GARMENT THAT GOD'S INTENDED US TO WEAR...
• 04:16 THE GARMENTS OF HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS.
• 04:18 SO IT'S NOT SO SCHEMY AS YOU MIGHT THINK.
• 04:22 THERE MIGHT BE A BEAUTIFUL PARABLE THAT GOD IS LAYING OUT FOR US HERE IN THE SCRIPTURE.
• 04:28 IT'S A PARABLE OF BEING READY TO MEET OUR MESSIAH.
• 04:32 IN REVELATIONS IT SAYS
• 04:41 THIS IS WHAT GOD IS DESIRING FOR US -
• 04:43 TO MAKE OURSELVES READY FOR HIM...
• 04:45 TO MAKE OURSELVES READY FOR HIS RETURN.
• 04:47 SO LET US WASH OURSELVES,
• 04:48 LET US BE FILLED WITH THE ANOINTING,
• 04:51 AND LET US HAVE OUR GARMENTS READY TO MEET OUR KING.
• 04:54 WE SO LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING THE REST OF THIS BEAUTIFUL STORY UNFOLD WITH YOU.
• 04:59 JOIN WITH US AS WE CONTINUE THIS JOURNEY IN THE BOOK OF RUTH.

• 05:43 AND RUTH WENT DOWN TO THE THRESHING FLOOR
• 05:46 AND DID AS NAOMI REQUESTED.
• 05:50 WOULD THIS EVENING MARK A TURNING POINT FOR RUTH AND NAOMI?
• 05:54 OR WOULD BOAZ PERCEIVE IT AS AN AWKWARD SCHEME INTENDED TO MANIPULATE HIM?
• 06:00 ONLY TIME WOULD TELL.
• 06:03 ONLY THE LORD KNEW.
• 06:06 IN THE EVENING AFTER BOAZ HAD FINISHED EATING AND DRINKING
• 06:11 HE WENT DOWN TO THE THRESHING WITH A MERRY HEART.
• 06:15 THE BARLEY AND WHEAT SEASON HAD BEEN GOOD TO HIM.
• 06:19 THE THRESHING FLOOR HAD BROUGHT FORTH GRAIN IN ABUNDANCE.
• 06:22 HIS WORKERS HAD SERVED HIM WELL.
• 06:25 EVEN THOSE WHO HAD GLEANED AMONG HIS FIELDS HAD BEEN THANKFUL.
• 06:29 THIS EVENING BOAZ WAS GRATEFUL TO BE COUNTED AMONG THE MANY IN BETHLEHEM
• 06:34 WHO HAD BEEN RICHLY BLESSED BY THE LORD.
• 06:38 YES...ON THIS NIGHT BOAZ WOULD SLEEP WELL.
• 06:43 EVER FAITHFUL HIS NEARBY FIRE WOULD PROVIDE HIS WARMTH.
• 06:50 EVER FRIENDLY THE HARVEST MOON WOULD PROVIDE ITS LIGHT.
• 06:56 AND EVER PRESENT THE LORD WOULD PROVIDE HIS TENDER MERCY AND CARE.
• 07:06 RUTH COULD HEAR HER OWN HEARTBEAT.
• 07:10 NAOMI HAD OFTEN TOLD HER ABOUT THE GOD OF ABRAHAM, ISAAC AND JACOB...
• 07:16 ABOUT THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL AND MIRACLES IN THE DESERT.
• 07:22 SURELY THIS OCCASION HAD TO BE ORCHESTRATED BY THE SAME LORD GOD OF ISRAEL.
• 07:30 AND RUTH UNCOVERED HIS FEET AND THERE SHE RESTED.
• 07:53 SO RUTH IS ON HER WAY TO THE THRESHING FLOOR.
• 07:56 IN FOLLOWING NAOMI'S INSTRUCTIONS IT SAYS IN SCRIPTURE
• 08:04 WHAT IS THE THRESHING FLOOR?
• 08:06 ITS REALLY PLACE OF SEPARATION...
• 08:08 IT'S A PLACE WHERE THAT WHICH IS OF THE LORD IS SEPARATED FROM THAT WHICH IS NOT.
• 08:12 CAN YOU IMAGINE WHAT A RISK IT WAS FOR HER?
• 08:15 IT WAS THE MEN THAT WERE SLEEPING HERE...
• 08:17 THEY WERE GUARDING THE GRAIN THAT HAD COME IN.
• 08:20 THEY HAD PROBABLY PARTIED ALL NIGHT.
• 08:22 IT WAS TIME THAT THE SHORT TERM SEASONAL JOB OF GATHERING IN THE GRAIN HAS COME TO CLOSE
• 08:28 AND SO THERE WAS A CELEBRATION,
• 08:30 THERE WAS PROBABLY SOME PARTYING GOING ON.
• 08:32 AND THEY WERE AT THE TIME OF REALLY GUARDING THE GRAIN
• 08:36 TO MAKE SURE NO THIEVES WOULD COME AND TAKE IT
• 08:39 SO IT WAS A VERY IMPORTANT TIME.
• 08:41 IMAGINE FOR A YOUNG MOABITESS WOMAN TO COME TO THE THRESHING FLOOR
• 08:48 THAT WAS JUST CULTURALLY VERY DIFFICULT TO DO.
• 08:51 AND THAT'S WHAT I MEAN BY TIME OF SEPARATION...
• 08:54 ISN'T OUR WALK WITH YESHUA SOMETHING LIKE THAT,
• 08:56 WHERE HE CALLS US TO DO THINGS THAT ARE SOMETIMES CULTURALLY A LITTLE RISKY OR UNACCEPTABLE.
• 09:03 WE CAN SORT OF DEFINE OUR CLOSENESS TO HIM BY HOW MUCH WE'RE WILLING TO RISK,
• 09:10 HOW MUCH WE'RE WILLING TO TAKE THE CHANCE
• 09:12 TO DO THAT WHICH "CROSS GRAINS" ONE MIGHT SAY THE CULTURAL NORMS OF THE DAY.
• 09:17 IT'S SOMETIMES AN ODD THING TO BE A BELIEVER IN A WORLD WHERE MANY PEOPLE ARE NOT.
• 09:22 WE'VE SEEN SOME DEMONSTRATION HERE OF THE WAY THAT SOME OF GRAIN WAS SEPARATED...
• 09:27 THERE'S THE WINNOWING,
• 09:29 THERE'S THE THRESHING.
• 09:30 AND ONE THING THAT HAPPENS WITH GRAIN
• 09:32 IS THAT WHEN IT IS WINNOWED THAT WHICH IS SUBSTANTIVE,
• 09:36 THAT WHICH IS HEAVY,
• 09:37 THAT WHICH IS REAL, USEFUL, GOOD,
• 09:39 THAT WHICH IS, WE COULD SAY, 'OF THE LORD' REMAINS
• 09:43 AND THE REST IS BLOWN AWAY BY THE WIND.
• 09:45 AND THAT'S WHAT THE WINNOWING FAN REPRESENTS.
• 09:48 THAT'S WHAT WINNOWING REALLY SPEAKS OF.
• 09:49 DO YOU REMEMBER WHEN JOHN THE BAPTIST,
• 09:52 WHEN JOHN WAS BAPTIZING YESHUA
• 09:56 HE SAID THAT "THE ONE WHO IS COMING HAS A WINNOWING FAN IN HIS HAND".
• 10:01 I'LL READ IT TO YOU.
• 10:03 JOHN THE BAPTIZER, THE IMMERSER SAYS,
• 10:16 REMEMBER THAT SANDAL
• 10:17 THAT IS GOING TO COME INTO PLACE SOON.
• 10:29 JOHANAN IS SPEAKING TO US ABOUT THAT SEPARATION...
• 10:32 THAT WHICH IS GOOD GRAIN,
• 10:34 THAT WHICH IS OF THE LORD FROM THAT WHICH IS NOT
• 10:36 THAT WILL BE BLOWN AWAY AND BURNED WITH FIRE.
• 10:38 AND OUR WALK IS SOMETHING LIKE THAT.
• 10:40 SO HERE'S RUTH COMING INTO THIS VERY PRECARIOUS SITUATION
• 10:44 FOLLOWING THE INSTRUCTIONS OF HER JEWISH MOTHER-IN-LAW
• 10:48 IN ORDER TO PLACE HERSELF CLOSE TO BOAZ FOR PURPOSES THAT WE'LL SEE UNFOLD.
• 10:53 THIS WAS NOT A ONE NIGHT STAND...
• 10:55 IT WAS NOT A SUPERFICIAL THING.
• 10:56 THIS WAS NOT A SEXUAL THING... AN EROTIC THING.
• 10:59 THIS WAS ABOUT COVENANT LOVE.
• 11:01 THIS WAS THE BEGINNING OF A COVENANT LOVE RELATIONSHIP
• 11:04 THAT IS A PICTURE OF OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH OUR GO'EL...
• 11:08 WITH OUR GUARDIAN...
• 11:10 GO'EL, THE KINSMAN, THE GUARDIAN, THE SAVIOR IS A SPIRITUAL WORD.
• 11:14 THERE ARE OTHER WORDS FOR PHYSICAL SAVING
• 11:16 IF YOU ARE DROWNING...IT'S A DIFFERENT WORD IN HEBREW...
• 11:19 BUT FOR YOUR SPIRITUAL SALVATION THE WORD GO'EL IS USED
• 11:22 AND THAT'S WHO BOAZ IS TO RUTH AND TO NAOMI...
• 11:26 HE IS THE ONE WHO CAN SPIRITUALLY SAVE THEM...
• 11:29 BRING THEM IN TO THEIR INHERITANCE,
• 11:31 BRING THEM IN TO THEIR DESTINY, THEIR PURPOSE IN GOD.
• 11:34 AND IT'S AN AMAZING RISK THAT SHE'S TAKING.
• 11:37 ITS REALLY CONVICTING TO US AS BELIEVERS TO TAKE THAT RISK AS WELL...
• 11:43 TO FOLLOW HIM...
• 11:44 TO FOLLOW CLOSELY WITH YESHUA...
• 11:46 TO HAVE THE PASSION THAT HE WILL RECOGNIZE AS THOSE WHO CAN SAY
• 11:50 "YES I KNEW YOU"
• 11:51 RATHER THAN THOSE "I DID NOT KNOW".

• 12:37 THOSE SCENES FROM ISRAEL ARE SO BEAUTIFUL.
• 12:39 IT JUST MAKES MY SPIRIT SOAR.
• 12:41 THE BIBLE COMES ALIVE.
• 12:43 WITH ME IS OUR TRAVEL MANAGER TRACIE.
• 12:45 ISN'T IT AMAZING HOW LOUD THE BIBLE GETS WHEN YOU'RE THERE?
• 12:48 IT DOES
• 12:49 AND ONE THING THAT IS SO AMAZING
• 12:51 IS PEOPLE COME TO ME
• 12:52 AFTER EVERY TRIP AND JUST SAY
• 12:54 HOW THEIR LIFE HAS CHANGED.
• 12:55 WE HAVE TESTIMONY AFTER TESTIMONY.
• 12:57 HAD A LADY ON OUR LAST TOUR THAT HAD LOST HER HUSBAND THREE YEARS AGO.
• 13:00 THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO TAKE THE TRIP TOGETHER.
• 13:02 AND SHE CAME AND SHE DEDICATED THAT TRIP TO HIM
• 13:04 AND SHE JUST FELT LIKE HER RELATIONSHIP WITH THE LORD WENT SO MUCH DEEPER.
• 13:08 THE TIME AT THE WAILING WALL...
• 13:10 THE TIME IN THE JORDAN RIVER...
• 13:12 THE BAPTISM IS SO SPECIAL.
• 13:13 IT IS JUST AMAZING.
• 13:14 I UNDERSTAND THAT YOU'VE TAKEN YOUR FAMILY THERE.
• 13:16 WE'VE TAKEN OUR BOYS WHEN THEY WERE YOUNGER.
• 13:18 IT WAS LIFE CHANGING FOR THEM AS WELL.
• 13:20 IT'S INCREDIBLE...
• 13:22 EVERY PERSON HAS A FAVORITE SITE
• 13:24 OR SOMEPLACE WHERE THEY MET WITH GOD IN A NEW AND FRESH WAY.
• 13:27 AND THAT'S WHAT TESTIMONY THAT ALWAYS COMES BACK FROM ISRAEL.
• 13:30 WHAT I LOVE ABOUT OUR TRIPS MYLES
• 13:31 IS THAT WE TAKE CARE OF ALL THE LOGISTICS.
• 13:34 AS YOU KNOW, YOU'RE A PASTOR, YOU'VE TAKEN PEOPLE THERE
• 13:37 AND YOU'LL OFTEN TIMES HAVE GROUPS AND HAVE TO TAKE CARE OF ALL THE DETAILS.

• 14:10 OF PEOPLE COMING TO YESHUA.
• 14:12 THERE'S A HEBREW LESSON...
• 14:13 A FINANCIAL LESSON...
• 14:14 IT'S AN AMAZING BOOKLET.
• 14:16 AND ALSO THIS WEEK OUR OFFER
• 14:17 IS THE INCREDIBLE MUSIC
• 14:19 YOU'VE BEEN HEARING
• 14:20 THROUGHOUT THIS SERIES
• 14:21 BY SASHA AND ANYA.
• 14:22 NOW...LET'S RETURN TO OUR STORY
• 14:24 WHERE IT'S GOING TO BE AN INTERESTING EVENING
• 14:27 AS RUTH MAKES HER WAY INTO THE THRESHING FLOOR TO THE FEET OF BOAZ.
• 14:36 AND IT CAME TO PASS AT MIDNIGHT THAT BOAZ WAS STARTLED.
• 16:11 HARVEST TIME...
• 16:13 A TIME OF CELEBRATION.
• 16:14 THE GRAIN IS IN...
• 16:15 THE SEASON IS COMING TO CLOSE
• 16:17 AND THEY'RE GATHERED TO GUARD THE GRAIN,
• 16:19 TO BE TOGETHER AND TO ENJOY THE FRUIT OF THEIR LABORS.
• 16:23 RUTH COMES TO THE THRESHING FLOOR.
• 16:25 IT SAYS IN VERSE 8,
• 16:43 YOU ARE THE NEXT OF KIN,
• 16:45 YOU'RE THE KINSMAN,
• 16:46 YOU'RE THE REDEEMER;
• 16:48 YOU ARE THE ONE WHO CAN HELP US.
• 16:50 AND WE HAVE A CERTAIN RELATIONSHIP THAT IS ABOUT TO UNFOLD BEFORE US.
• 16:54 THIS UNCOVERING OF THE SKIRT IS A VERY IMPORTANT CONCEPT IN HEBREW THOUGHT
• 16:59 AND THROUGHOUT THE SCRIPTURES.
• 17:01 GOD HIMSELF USES THIS CONCEPT IN EZEKIEL 16:8
• 17:06 HE SAYS TO ISRAEL
• 17:19 THAT'S THE PICTURE THAT'S IN THE HEM, THE SKIRT, THE FRINGES.
• 17:23 WE SEE IT THROUGHOUT SCRIPTURE AS A PICTURE OF THE AUTHORITY OF GOD, OF THE SAVING POWER OF GOD.
• 17:29 AND THAT'S WHAT RUTH IS NOW COMING UNDER
• 17:31 AS SHE COMES TO BOAZ IN THE THRESHING FLOOR
• 17:34 AND NESTLES UP UNDER THE SKIRT, UNDER THE EDGE OF HIS HEM OF HIS GARMENT.
• 17:40 IT'S A VERY BOLD AND YET VERY SIGNIFICANT PICTURE FOR US
• 17:44 ESPECIALLY AS BELIEVERS THAT WE ARE TO WALK SO CLOSELY WITH OUR SAVIOR,
• 17:49 THAT WE'RE UNDER THE COVERING OF HIS GARMENT.
• 17:52 DON'T YOU REMEMBER THAT IN MATTHEW 14:36 THERE'S THAT INCREDIBLE PICTURE OF THE WOMAN
• 17:59 COMING THROUGH THE CROWD JUST TO TOUCH THE HEM OF YESHUA'S GARMENT?
• 18:04 IF SHE CAN TOUCH THE HEM SHE CAN TOUCH HIS AUTHORITY...
• 18:06 HEALING WOULD FLOW TO HER.
• 18:08 SAME PICTURE...
• 18:10 GOD'S PICTURE OVER ALL OF ISRAEL...
• 18:12 YESHUA'S HEM AS A PLACE OF SALVATION OR HEALING FOR THE WOMAN WITH THE ISSUE OF BLOOD.
• 18:18 IT'S AN AMAZING PICTURE OF WHAT RUTH IS COMING IN TO AS SHE JOINS BOAZ IN THE THRESHING FLOOR.
• 18:26 DAVID WAS SO TOUCHED BY HIS BOLDNESS OF...
• 18:31 MAYBE AUDACITY YOU MIGHT SAY.
• 18:34 DAVID WAS SO TOUCH BY THE AUDACITY THAT HE DISPLAYED IN CUTTING THE HEM OF SAUL'S GARMENT THAT HE REPENTED.
• 18:42 IN I SAMUEL 24 DAVID REPENTS
• 18:45 BECAUSE HE TOUCHED THE AUTHORITY OF THE KING, THE KINGLY LINEAGE...
• 18:49 IT WAS SUCH A SACRED THING.
• 18:51 IN ANCIENT TIMES THE HEM WOULD BE USED EVEN FOR IDENTIFYING YOURSELF AS A NOBLEMAN OR AS KING.
• 18:56 THEY WOULD TAKE THE HEM OF THEIR GARMENT AND USE IT AS AN IMPRESSION...
• 19:00 A SEAL TO SAY 'THIS IS FROM ME'...
• 19:03 'THIS IS FROM ONE IN AUTHORITY'.
• 19:05 VERY, VERY IMPORTANT PICTURE FOR US THROUGHOUT THE VERSES OF SCRIPTURE
• 19:09 THAT SHOW US THAT GOD WANTS TO NOT ONLY HAVE US TO BE AWARE OF WHO HE IS, HIS AUTHORITY,
• 19:14 HIS POWER, HIS STRENGTH;
• 19:15 BUT ALSO TO RELATE TO IT.
• 19:17 WE'RE SUPPOSED TO WALK SO CLOSELY WITH OUR RABBI, WITH YESHUA
• 19:21 THAT THE DUST OF THE RABBI GETS ON TO US...WHAT A PICTURE.
• 19:25 AND RUTH IS DOING THAT...SHE'S GOING ACROSS CULTURAL NORMS.
• 19:29 SHE'S BEING VERY BOLD IN COMING INTO A CLOSENESS WITH HER GO'EL.
• 19:36 THAT IS A REAL REMINDER FOR US IS HOW INTIMATE WE ARE TO BE WITH THE LORD.
• 19:40 REALLY I WONDER IF IT'S PASSION THAT SEPARATES US ONE FROM ANOTHER.
• 19:45 HERE WE ARE ON THRESHING FLOOR A PLACE OF SEPARATION.
• 19:48 AND MAYBE IT'S THE PASSION THAT SEPARATES US.
• 19:51 THAT WE ARE TO WALK SO CLOSELY WITH GOD
• 19:54 AND BE SO PASSIONATE ABOUT WHO HE IS AND WHAT HE'S DOING IN THE WORLD
• 19:58 THAT HE WILL RECOGNIZE US AS "OH, YOU'RE THE ONE WHO'S BEEN UNDER MY SKIRT"...
• 20:02 "YOU'RE THE ONE WHO'S BEEN VERY CLOSED TO ME"...
• 20:04 "YOU'RE THE ONE THAT'S BEEN TOUCHING THE HEM OF MY GARMENT"....
• 20:07 "YOU'VE BEEN DRAWING ON ME"...
• 20:08 "YOU'VE BEEN PULLING ON MY AUTHORITY"...
• 20:10 "YOU'VE BEEN GIVING YOURSELF TO MY PURPOSES FOR YOUR LIFE".
• 20:13 I WANT TO BE ONE OF THOSE DON'T YOU?
• 20:16 I THINK ABOUT THE VIEWERS OF THIS SHOW,
• 20:17 I THINK ABOUT THOSE THAT HAVE KNITTED THEMSELVES WITH ZOLA LEVITT MINISTRIES.
• 20:21 I BELIEVE YOU HAVE THAT PASSION...
• 20:23 YOU HAVE THAT PASSION FOR THE KINGDOM AUTHORITY OF THE LORD,
• 20:27 THAT PASSION FOR GOD'S LOVE FOR ISRAEL AND HIS PEOPLE.
• 20:32 AND I AM SO GRATEFUL TO BE PART OF THAT CONNECTION WITH YOU
• 20:36 THAT WE TOGETHER CAN FIND OURSELVES TOUCHING THE HEM OF HIS GARMENT
• 20:41 BEING FOUND UNDER THE ROBE OF HIS AUTHORITY,
• 20:43 HAVING HIS SKIRT SPREAD OVER US IN SUCH A WAY
• 20:46 THAT WE ARE COVERED AS IF WE ARE UNDER THE SHADOW OF THE WINGS OF THE ALMIGHTY
• 20:51 AS IT SAYS IN PSALM 91.
• 20:53 I WANT TO BE ONE OF THOSE
• 20:55 AND I'M SO GLAD TO BE DOING THAT WITH YOU HERE IN THE LAND.
• 20:58 I WANT TO ENCOURAGE YOU IN THE DAYS AHEAD...
• 21:01 ASK THE LORD, "GOD WHERE IS THE PASSION THAT YOU HAVE FOR ME IN MY WALK WITH YOU?"
• 21:07 "WHERE ARE YOU ASKING ME TO PUT MY HANDS ON THE PLOW?"
• 21:10 "WHERE ARE YOU ASKING ME TO GIVE OF MYSELF, TO SUPPORT, TO PRAY FOR, TO LIFT UP THAT WHICH IS IMPORTANT TO YOU?"
• 21:17 WOULD YOU DO THAT?
• 21:19 WOULD YOU BE LIKE RUTH AND GIVE YOURSELF TO THAT WHICH IS IMPORTANT TO THE LORD?
• 21:23 I THINK YOU'LL FIND THE SATISFACTION THAT COMES FROM THAT
• 21:26 IS UNLIKE ANYTHING ELSE IN THIS WORLD OR IN THE WORLD TO COME.

• 23:33 THAT WAS BEAUTIFUL MUSIC FROM SASHA AND ANYA IN ISRAEL...
• 23:36 A RUSSIAN COUPLE THAT GOD IS USING TO RESTORE THAT RUSSIAN SOUND IN THE PROMISED LAND.
• 23:42 GOD HAS OPENED THE DOOR FOR THE RUSSIANS TO COME HOME
• 23:45 AND THEY ARE DOING IT.
• 23:46 AND IT'S A BEAUTIFUL SIGHT TO SEE.
• 23:48 WE'RE GOING TO HEAR MORE FROM ARIE'S TEACHING ABOUT THE TOOLS USED ON THE THRESHING FLOOR.
• 23:56 WELCOME TO THE THRESHING FLOOR
• 23:59 OF BETHLEHEM.
• 24:01 WE REMEMBER THAT HERE
• 24:03 WE WANT TO PREPARE BREAD.
• 24:05 AND BREAD IS MADE OUT OF THE WHEAT AND THE BARLEY.
• 24:10 SO WE BRING HERE THE SHEAVES
• 24:12 AND WE CUT THEM IN LITTLE PIECES BY THIS SLEDGE.
• 24:16 WE CUT THEM BY VERY SHARP TEETH;
• 24:19 ORE MADE IRON OR FROM FLINT STONE.
• 24:23 BY PUTTING THE SLEDGE ON THE THRESHING FLOOR
• 24:29 AND CARRYING IT ALL AROUND
• 24:31 IT WILL CUT IT IN SO LITTLE PIECES
• 24:34 THAT BY LIFTING IT UP WITH THE WIND
• 24:37 AND WITH THE WINNOWING UP TO THE AIR...
• 24:42 LOOK WHAT HAPPENS...
• 24:44 IT SEPARATES.
• 24:45 I'LL DO IT AGAIN
• 24:47 AND WE CAN UNDERSTAND HOW MUCH WE NEED THE WIND IN ORDER TO SEPARATE THE MATERIAL.
• 24:53 THE CHAFF IS GOING BY THE WIND
• 24:56 BUT THE REAL...THE GRAINS...
• 24:59 THEIR FALLING DOWN BECAUSE THEY ARE HEAVIER.
• 25:01 I CARRY...I TAKE THE GRAINS AND THEN I PUT THEM IN THE SIFTING.
• 25:07 BY PASSING THROUGH THE SIFTING ALL THE REAL SMALL GRAINS FALL DOWN.
• 25:12 ALL THE OTHER MATERIAL STAYS HERE AND LATER ON IS THROWN.
• 25:18 THIS IS WHERE WE ARE SEPARATING THE WHEAT FROM THE TARES.
• 25:36 GREAT INSIGHT FROM ARIE ABOUT THE TOOLS USED ON THE THRESHING FLOOR.
• 25:41 GOD IS USING ISRAEL TODAY AS A THRESHING FLOOR TO SEPARATE THE NATIONS AS SHEEP FROM GOATS
