JESUS WILL NOT REST UNTIL HE HAS A BRIDE

(Ruth 3:18): Once Boaz realized the turn of events that had resulted from his kindness to Ruth everything he would do from then until the consummation of this transaction would be in regard to her.

Jesus Christ is the same and will not rest until His bride is at His side.

(2Pe 3:9) "Not slack concerning His promise"
(Isa 62:7) "Give Him no rest" (Isa 62:1)
(Isa 42:4)He will not be discouraged until it be accomplished

When he knew she would be his he immediately went to work on making her his own.
·​Went to the one whose right it is.
·​Went to prepare her a place.
·​Gave her provisions to care for her until he returned.
·​Naomi was there to assure and prepare her.

Jesus came first to pay the price and make us His own.
He has gone now to prepare a place (Joh 14:1-3; Rev 21-22)
We have the earnest of our inheritance (Eph 1:14)

He is not resting yet (Heb 4:9) for "there remains a rest to the people of God"
The last minute inspection is being made now.

The Spirit is preparing us (Joh 14:26).
Bride is making herself ready (Rev 19:7; Eph 5:26)
(Heb 9:28) "Unto them that look for Him" (Tit 2:10-14; Phi 3:20)

·​He will not be relaxed.
·​He will leave nothing undone.
·​He has given us provisions.
·​We have the language, citizenship, bank, home, Spirit.
·​We will have the body for it.
·​He is stirred up about it.
·​He keeps moving forward.
·​He is working within our bodies to prepare us.
· (Joh 19:30) "It is finished"
·​Isaac went to meditate.
·​Esther would wear whatever the chamberlain chose
·​"I have a baptism to be baptized with and how am I straitened until it be accomplished" (or, let me do it now, I am anxious to get it done)
