Help those in need
Blessed are those who have regard for the weak;
the Lord delivers them in times of trouble.
- Psalm 41:1
God and His Word care about those in need. Unfortunately, because of political debates, the church has stopped working on behalf of the disadvantaged and has embraced other directions. It is the duty of God’s people to care for the needy without seeing them as a burden.
As the psalmist said, helping those in need is a joy. God protects and cares for those who do so, and He also prospers them. Whenever you have the opportunity, care for those who need you and receive happiness and blessings from God.
Helping the needy is a central theme of the gospel. Jesus’ own ministry on Earth emphasized those in need.
The Spirit of the Lord is on me,
because he has anointed me
to proclaim good news to the poor.
He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners
and recovery of sight for the blind,
to set the oppressed free,
to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor
- Luke 4:18–19
We must give importance to what is important to God. We are called to help the needy and the poor, to proclaim the freedom found in Christ to the prisoners and to everyone around us. Just as Jesus obeyed the Father and fulfilled His ministry, we must strive to fulfill our part in everything that God entrusts to us.
Let us share the gospel with those in need and share the resources that God has given us: “Freely you have received; freely give.” (Matthew 10:8b)

Day Before Yesterday's Word
Word of the Day: Everything You Need, God Will Provide
God knows what you need, trust. Jesus taught us not to worry about tomorrow. God knows what we need and will supply all our needs.
But this promise has a condition: to put the Kingdom of God first in your life. You have to surrender wholeheartedly.
But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.
- Matthew 6:33
Matthew 6:33 emphasizes the importance of seeking first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, ensuring that all other needs will be met. This instruction resonates as an invitation to place our trust in divine providence by making the Kingdom of God our primary pursuit.
By trusting in God's guidance and seeking His righteousness, you will open the doors to the generous provision He has promised to those who earnestly seek Him. So, plunge into faith, confident that God is faithful to His word and will fulfill His promises in your life.
Are you prepared to throw yourself into the arms of Jesus without looking back? Do this and then pray and ask. The God who knows you better than anyone else will bless you with everything you need.
Dear friends, if our hearts do not condemn us, we have confidence before God and receive from him anything we ask, because we keep his commands and do what pleases him. And this is his command: to believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and to love one another as he commanded us.
- 1 John 3:21-23
