I. RUTH NEEDED INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE SHE COULD ENTER HER REST.

Concluding study of this main point.

3. The position she was to take. She was to present her plea after the harvest supper, 4. She was to lie at his feet. It was a place of surrender, a place of waiting, John 12:3. This was to be done in secret, after the company had left. She was to lie until he took notice of her.

II. RUTH'S OBEDIENCE.
"And she said unto her, All that thou sayest unto me I will do," verse 5. She not only said she would obey but did so. "And she went down unto the floor, and did according to all that her mother in law bade her," verse 6.

1. She approached secretively. She made no display of her actions. What modesty and humility is required when seeking the fulness of God's blessing.
