DEATH TO BOAZ!

If I hear another woman of God say she’s waiting on her “Boaz”, I’m going to scream my lungs bloody and hit her upside the head with an offering basket! Real talk! You’ve read the title, so you probably already can guess that this post is not going to be the nicest cup of tea you’ve had to drink. But you have to drink it and YES THIS IS YOUR BUSINESS!

I hate to break it to you dear, BOAZ is not coming! Boaz was for Ruth and Ruth only. Boaz was tied to Ruth’s assignment. He is not TIED TO YOURS! I am afraid that the church has cooked up this lovely fairytale that every woman has a BOAZ designated for her. WRONG!

If you go into the word, Boaz wasn’t even all that aaaaanndd Naomi helped Ruth come up with a cute little scheme to get homie’s attention.

RUTH 3:1-5

One day Ruth’s mother-in-law Naomi said to her, “My daughter, I must find a home[a] 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.

What happened in this scripture is NOT GOING TO HAPPEN TO YOU! Look here, when you focus all of your attention on this fairytale you will actually miss what’s really important in your walk, and that’s YOUR ASSIGNMENT! Your assignment does not have anything to do with getting married. It has everything to do with you completing God’s desires for the kingdom. Also understand this, marriage is not your end all be all. It is not a vacation destination. It is A JOB. It is a promotion into a new position in the kingdom. Which means it’s NOT a fairytale! It’s rolled up sleeves, dirty feet, blood sweat and tears!

Yes there will be romance, bliss, and love and all the other glittery stuff you like especially when the union is GOD LED AND GOD FED, but your work as a believer DOESN’T STOP. It continues and it gets a little more strenuous. It will require all that faith and patience you used while in waiting, to be used in your marriage and then some, honey!

DEATH TO BOAZ! There’s no Boaz coming for you. A co-manager is coming for you, a partner in Christ that will effectively link up with you and your assignment. Take this with you as well, your assignment will actually merge with his assignment. Why else would God even allow you all to get anywhere near matrimony status? This is also why the devil is cranking out counterfeits. It’s to throw you completely off of your assignment! The devil will use this BOAZ fairytale to distract and deter you. Get your mind off this Boaz foolery and onto your assignment!

Don’t even play either, I sense a, “I don’t know what my assignment is,” spirit rising up from some of you and I REBUKE IT! This is all the more reason for you to stop thinking about that tall dark and handsome BOAZ of yours and ask God to show you what your assignment is and even further, give you instructions on how to go about tackling that thing! DEATH TO BOAZ!

What else does this mean? That you should not be worrying your pretty little heart right now over recycled bible clichés because you got a lot of work to do outside the desires of your heart! You hear me? Get to stepping!

Beyond the Thunderdome

  Ephesians 6:11  Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. Hey there my beautiful people! How are y'all feeling?  I'll be honest and say right now I haven't been really feeling my best.  The only description I have for what I'm experiencing is, it's like as if I can feel the ebbs and flows of the world.  The heaving and lurching and violent rushing of waves crashing up against rocks.  I can truly say that I've found a new meaning of what it is to be anchored in Christ.  And yet I press!  Despite how I feel, I press on  towards the mark for the prize of the higher calling of Christ Jesus, like Apostle Paul told the Philippians in chapter 3 verse 14 of that book.  Now t hat right there should have done something in your shando.  (inner man, ha!)  I wanted to be transparent for anybody who may be feeling a similar way.  Be encouraged, beloved...

Waiting for Superman

Songs of Solomon 2:8  "Listen! My beloved!  Look! Here he comes,  leaping across the mountains,  bounding over the hills." Well hello there! It's Misses Kill Your Vibes ALL 2019!!  And look a-here, tomorrow is Valentines Day. One of the most overrated, hyper worshipped, super advertised pagan holidays behind Christmas!  I HATE IT. You don't even get that day off for work. Yet people get worked up off an imaginary naked angel baby shooting heart arrows at other loose people.  I do not have time for that kind of violence.  I never do. I never did. Somehow I stumbled upon a section on my Facebook page that I thought no longer existed! So in 2009, as blogging begin to gain traction, Facebook would allow you a space to write notes. I would take advantage of it of course way before I started this page. It was pretty cool reading the stuff I wrote until I stumbled upon a host of love poems to some fantasy man god I'd molded fro...

Am I My Brother's Keeper?

According to Worldometers.com, there are 7 BILLION people in the world today. Did you read that? 7 BILLION! That’s an amazing figure if you ask me. It’s amazing because GOD took a few handfuls of dirt and breathed His own breath into a creature, a man, and He named him Adam. Then He pulled a rib from Adam and made another creature, a woman, and He named her Eve. From Adam and Eve came the FIRST OFFSPRINGS OF HUMANITY, Cain and Abel. After Cain KILLED Abel, Adam and Eve had more children and their children had children and so on, and so on and VOILA, 7 BILLION PEOPLE are on this Earth! But wait, let’s go back to that whole shebang about Cain killing Abel. How did this happen? The celebration of LIFE in the Garden of Eden had just begun and you mean to tell me somebody was killed ALREADY? You’ve got to be kidding me yo! Ya homeboy Cain got jealous of Abel basically because Abel received more favor from God. And it was not because God was showing any kind of favoritism either. ...
