*GOD IS FOR THE LESS PRIVILEGED*


*By Pastor E O Gabriel  15 September 2023*


SCRIPTURE: For the oppression of the poor, Or the sighing of the Needy, Now will I arise, saith the LORD; I will set him in safety from him that puffeth at him - *Psalms 12:5*


Our Society shows a lot of disdain for the less Privileged, they take delight in oppressing the poor and the Needy.


David was walking on the rooftop of his house on one fateful day and saw a married woman bathing. He sent for her and slept with her, despising whatever the husband will do. The woman later sent to the King David that she was Pregnant. In order to cover up his sin, King David used his advantageous Position to orchestrate the death of her husband. 


When her husband died, king David took the woman as a wife. Both the woman and her husband were poor because they had no Power to fight their injustice.

But, God arose for them and dealt with king David. The house of David still suffers the Punishment till date - *2 Samuel 11- 2 Samuel 12:16*


Our Anchor Bible Text tells us that the oppression of the poor and the Needy will not go unpunished. They have no Power to fight their injustice, but the Lord who made them will arise and fight for them. 


*Therefore, we should know that in all our dealings with the less Privileged, we should know that God is on their side.*


The Bible says, whoever oppresses the poor reproaches his Maker - *Proverbs 14:31*


*The Question is who will reproach God and go unpunished?*


*Therefore, Wisdom demands that we should help the less Privileged rather than taking advantage of them.*


*Prayer:*

Father, in any way I have oppressed the less Privileged, Please have Mercy on me.

Wisdom is a critical requirement for profitable life in time and in eternity.  ●Ecclesiastes 10:10 makes it clear that wisdom is profitable to direct.  ●So, it is not possible to experience a profitable life in this world and in the world to come without wisdom. This means, the absence of wisdom is the abundance of losses, losses in this life and in the life to come. People lose where wisdom is lacking. People even lose their souls in eternity in hellfire because they did not apply their hearts to wisdom on the earth. A profitable

Jacob was enlarged, and the Bible says, the man (Jacob) increased Exceedingly - *Genesis 30:43* The Enlargement of Jacob was with a lot of Struggles.  He Struggled with Esau, his brother, in the womb - *Genesis 25:22* Even when he was born, he continued to Struggle with Esau, for his Birthright.  Jacob, in his quest for Enlargement, deceived his father. Jacob also Struggled with Laban, his Uncle. Jacob Struggled with God - *Genesis 32:24-30* *Though Jacob enjoyed Enlargement, his Life was full of Troubles, Pain, Stress, Fear, Depression and the likes.* The conversation between Jacob and Pharaoh
