ජෝබ් 29:16

The Bible has a lot to say about the poor. In fact, Jesus has clear instructions for Christians as He reminds us that the poor will always be among us. This 5-day plan will help readers gain a biblical understanding and perspective on the poor, apply it to their lives, and prepare them to share this learning with others.

The book of Job chronicles testing a righteous man's faith through suffering. Although Job's friends attempt to comfort him, it is only by God's revelation of His wisdom and might that Job finds true comfort. Even in deep suffering, God can do all things, and none of His purposes can be thwarted (Job 42:2).

Created by Walt Larimore, MD, this 30-day daily devotional consists only of Bible verses - what God's Word says about thanksgiving and rejoicing that leads to gratitude and blessings. It's designed to inspire and encourage every Christ follower through a season of expressing thanks and gratitude to our Father in Heaven.

This reading plan will help you understand God's heart towards the poor and suffering and will demonstrate our responsibility. In each scripture reference, read the entire chapter to understand the context of each verse. Ask yourself if you are following God's intentions towards the poor and suffering.
