Defend the cause of the Fatherless

Isaiah 1:17 says, "Seek justice, encourage the oppressed. Defend the cause of the fatherless, plead the case of the widow." Isaiah 58:6-8 says, "Is this not the kind of fasting I have chosen: to loose the chains of the injustice...to set the oppressed free...Is it not to share food with the hungry and to provide the poor wanderer with shelter...Then your light will break forth like the dawn, and your healing will quickly appear."
Malachi 4:6
Before the Great Day of the Lord(His return), He will turn the hearts of the fathers to their children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers. It is God's plan to reach and take care of the fatherless. Jas 1:27 says that this is true religion.
What is our part in this? Is it to adopt and take in 10 kids off the street? What is he calling us to? He is calling the hearts of the fathers to turn to the children. He is giving us the formula for our healings. Our healing will come quickly when we care for the widows and the orphans. It is clear what we have to do. We have to do something and to each it might look differently. We need to pray that out and see what our part is to play but let us not be still. This is a call to action(pray, support, funding, raising up, etc...)whatever that looks like for you.

Many Americans including Christians seem to believe that we ought to live in a mad (crazy) world. We certainly think otherwise. This is not about the election or endorsing any one particular candidate. It's about moral justice of a Nation. Let us not cover our eyes and ears when it comes to the issue of the shedding of innocent blood. Lord, have mercy on us.
