The Poor and Needy!
Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who know you raise the poor from the dust and lift the needy from the ash heap. In Jesus’ name, amen.
In many communities, homelessness is a big issue. In many places, there is a coordinated effort to help those needing help. There are opportunities for those who find themselves in this situation, including outreach programs and government assisted housing. Volunteer organizations also assist those in need.
Psalm 113:4-8 (ESV) reminds us that God has not forgotten those who are poor and needy.
“The Lord is high above all nations,
and his glory above the heavens!
Who is like the Lord our God,
who is seated on high,
who looks far down
on the heavens and the earth?
He raises the poor from the dust
and lifts the needy from the ash heap,
to make them sit with princes,
with the princes of his people”.
God is working behind the scenes to provide for those in need. Praise his name for all he does.
