Wednesday: To Help the Hurting
Daily Lesson for Wednesday 22nd of November 2023
Who among us hasn’t experienced just how hurting our world really is? Whether living in an environment of wealth and materialism, or living in an environment of poverty and material needs—it doesn’t matter. People are hurting, suffering, struggling. All one has to do, for instance, is read about the staggering amount of money spent on antidepressants in the Western world each year to understand that material wealth alone does not even come close to guaranteeing happiness or peace.
“The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, because He has anointed Me to preach the gospel to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the broken-hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed” (Luke 4:18, NKJV).
What does this teach us about what Jesus did and what we, too, in our own sphere, should be doing for those in need around us?
God is calling us to meet the needs of all people, even though we don’t know when or if they will ever accept Jesus. Though reaching them for Jesus is the foundation of our mission, we need to help those in need purely because they need help. We help them because we have accepted Jesus as our Lord, and that is what He calls us to do.
Jesus’ example of trying to meet the needs of all people is a biblical principle to follow. We don’t know if everyone whom He helped accepted Him or not.
To truly help others, we need to become aware of their needs. Every culture has its own way of showing how to treat a friend. In India, it is customary to serve food or a drink when entertaining visitors. It is easier to give a stranger token money than to comfort a friend who just lost a loved one. What your friend may need may be more than money or physical things. Often your sympathetic support during the time of a major loss could be much more helpful.
The important principle of being Jesus’ helper to our friends begins first with the goal of showing selfless love toward them, understanding their needs first before trying to offer help. Provide the help they need, even though you may not know if they are ready to follow Jesus.
Read Matthew 25:34-40. What’s the message for us here?

Daños colaterales: La guerra por Tierra Santa, Israel y los evangélicos
Cuando Donald Trump decidió en 2017 reconocer formalmente a Jerusalén como capital de Israel trasladando allí la embajada de Estados Unidos, se trataba de algo más que geopolítica. Para los evangélicos y fundamentalistas estadounidenses, esto fue un cumplimiento de la profecía bíblica, y representó un progreso para aquellos que anticipan ansiosamente el rapto y el […] Source: https://atoday.org/danos-colaterales-la-guerra-por-tierra-santa-israel-y-los-evangelicos/
