God’s Rescue Strategy
HEART //
In this world, the most wealthy, powerful, and privileged are honored and esteemed. In God’s kingdom, the opposite is true. Over and over again in Scripture, God reminds his followers to honor and defend the weakest and most vulnerable people in their community. He sees their suffering every day, and his heart is full of compassion for them.
Those who cannot fight or speak for themselves, those who seem to be nothing in this world, are special to God, and Jesus urged us to treat our hungry and needy neighbors as royalty. He told us that what we do to the ‘least of these’ we are doing to him!
As Christians, we are Jesus's hands and feet. We are to take what was purchased on the cross, the nature of Jesus Christ, and help transplant it into the hearts of people here on Earth. We are to behave not like this world but like Jesus. When the world sees us, we should look different because we are from another realm—a noble, brave, and selfless realm that teaches us to spend ourselves for the weak.
Psalm 140 says that God secures justice for the poor and upholds their cause, but Psalm 82 calls us in to do the work. He secures that justice through us! We are to defend the weak and the fatherless. We are to uphold the cause of the poor and the oppressed. We are to rescue the weak and the needy, to deliver them from the hand of wickedness.
He calls us out of indifference. In self-focus, we want to separate our hearts and our lives from the brokenness around us, but God challenges us to see people and then to take what we see and meet it with compassionate action. God so loved the world that he GAVE (John 3:16). When we call ourselves by his name we are called to do the same.
WORK //
Are you so sick of beans and rice yet? Isn't it starting to sink in what it would be like if that was your ONLY option? It's heartbreaking to realize this is the daily reality for so many in our world. Today, write down your thoughts on your beans and rice experience and make a plan to serve at a soup kitchen or homeless shelter in your area. Open your heart and make yourself available for God to use you however and wherever he desires within your daily life here and now, and trust that he will guide you into whatever plans he has for your future.
