God Quote-Defending the Poor and Needy

JOHN SHIRK – In the Year of God’s Word, this is what the LORD says in Jeremiah 22:15 and 16.

Speaking of King Josiah, “He did what was right and just, so all went well with him. He defended the cause of the poor and needy, and so all went well. Is this not what it means to know me?”

Having a relationship with God will affect how we view the cause of poverty. Helping those in poverty was a cause that united the early church, and it is a cause that unites followers of Jesus today, because we are moved by His compassion to make a difference for someone in a place of need.

Jeremiah 22:15 and 16-that’s today’s God Quote for us to embrace for Life.
