Today’s passage highlights the moral imperative of caring for the needy. It warns that those who ignore the cries of the poor will themselves be unheard in their time of need. Solomon also reminded us that human power is insignificant compared with divine judgment, and that true victory in life comes from living justly and caring for others. Please open your Bible to Proverbs twenty-one, verse thirteen, and listen as Pastor Ray Viola completes his study of this chapter.
