Why We Should Be a People of Compassion - Mike Reinsel - The Least of These - X Multiply

Elevate City Church

God’s will isn’t about getting Him on our agenda, but getting us on His agenda. And His agenda is serving the “the least of these”. His agenda is investing in the lost, forgotten, forsaken, and marginalized. With our time, yes. With our relationship, yes. WIth our talents, yes. And with our money, yes! A commitment to serve the Poor, the Prisoner and the Orphan. Jesus said in Matthew 26:11; the poor you will always have with you. James said in James 1:27; true religion is caring for widows and orphans. Jesus said in Matthew 25:40; whatever you have done for the prisoner you have done for me. It will be impossible for us to elevate the name of Jesus without caring for the least of these. Over the next 10 years we will give $1,000,000 away to serve the poor, the orphan, the unborn, and the widow. We will partner to see 1000 women and girls set free from trafficking in Jesus' name. We will see foster homes opened and orphans adopted and partner to end the generational cycles of poverty in Clarkston. Matthew 25:31-40 31 “When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, then he will sit on his glorious throne. 32 Before him will be gathered all the nations, and he will separate people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. 33 And he will place the sheep on his right, but the goats on the left. 34 Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. 35 For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, 36 I was naked and you clothed me, I was sick and you visited me, I was in prison and you came to me.’ 37 Then the righteous will answer him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you drink? 38 And when did we see you a stranger and welcome you, or naked and clothe you? 39 And when did we see you sick or in prison and visit you?’ 40 And the King will answer them, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers,[f] you did it to me.’ We'd love for you to subscribe to our channel and turn on notifications to get updates on our latest content and resources that will help more people know Jesus and people know Jesus more.
