I love listening to Dr. Jeremiah speak. He is to the point and focuses on issues we face today.
This video is a bit different from some of the others I’ve posted. It is part of the “Overcomers” series so the service is not held at Shadow Mountain.
But, as always, I believe you’ll enjoy this video message by Dr. David Jeremiah and will find it helps you through the day — as it did for me.
Introduction to the “Overcoming Bad Decisions” Video by Dr Jeremiah
In his insightful video “Overcoming Bad Decisions,” Dr. David Jeremiah delves into the story of Ruth from the Bible, demonstrating how individuals can navigate through the consequences of poor choices. He uses Ruth’s narrative as a framework to offer biblical wisdom and guidance.
Let’s watch and learn from Ruth and Noami about overcoming…
David Jeremiah: Overcoming Bad Decisions Video
The Story of Ruth
Dr. Jeremiah recounts the story of Ruth, a Moabite widow, who made a pivotal decision to stay with her mother-in-law, Naomi, and move to Bethlehem. This decision, found in Ruth 1:16-17, exemplifies loyalty and faith, setting the stage for God’s providence in their lives. Ruth’s story is one of redemption and divine orchestration, showing that even when we make decisions that seem unfavorable, God can use them for a greater purpose.
Biblical Insights and Lessons
Throughout the video, Dr. Jeremiah highlights several Bible verses to emphasize his points. He refers to Proverbs 3:5-6 to stress the importance of trusting in God’s guidance rather than our understanding. Additionally, he discusses Romans 8:28, illustrating that God works all things together for good for those who love Him and are called according to His purpose.
Application and Encouragement
Dr. Jeremiah encourages viewers to seek God’s wisdom in their decision-making processes. He underscores that repentance and faith can lead to restoration, as demonstrated in Ruth’s life. By drawing on Ruth’s example and other scriptural references, Dr. Jeremiah offers hope and practical advice for overcoming the repercussions of bad decisions.
This Scripture lesson helps us discover what happens when we make decisions without consulting God first.
We’re all guilty.
But, we’ll find in the Book of Ruth that God’s way is always the best way.
Ruth finds her kinsman redeemer. We did too! His name is Jesus Christ.
I hope you enjoyed the video and will follow the examples given to become an “overcomer.”
