He lifts up the Needy by Pastor Rod Parsley

He Lifts Up the Needy Defend the cause of the weak and fatherless; maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed. Rescue the weak and needy; deliver them from the hand of the wicked. Psalms 82:3-4 Maggie was found half-alive in a burning trash pile in Haiti. Mercifully, she was pulled out just in time. Her rescuers learned of the trauma that had been forced upon this poor girl. She'd been sexually abused and she'd been beaten almost to death. In time, Maggie's body healed and she learned to smile again, leaving behind her painful past. More importantly, Maggie came to learn about a Savior who loved her. She embraced Him with all her might and radiated with hope for her future. In the orphanage that took her in, she was loved by the younger children. She cooked for them and helped them in any way she could. Her future was bright and full of hope. But one day she got sick...and there was nothing anyone could do to make her better. Maggie died shortly before I left Haiti. The Bible instructs us to look after the poor, the needy and the oppressed: "Administer true justice; show mercy and compassion to one another. Do not oppress the widow or the fatherless, the alien or the poor" (Zechariah 7:9-10). Will you follow the Lord's command to help those in need?
