Foundation’s Great Commission
James 1: 28- A true religion is that which supports the vulnerable widows, orphans and aged in their times of disgrace.
Isaiah 59: 6-12 – The kind of fasting that Christ wants is this to remove the chains of oppression and the York of injustice and to let the oppressed go free, share your food with the hungry and open your homes to the homeless poor.
Give clothes to those who have nothing to wear, and then the Lord’s favors will shine on you like the morning sun and your wounds shall quickly heal. He will always be with you to save you. His presence will protect you on every side, when you pray, he shall answer.
If you put an end to this oppression, if you give food to the hungry and satisfy those in need, then the darkness around you will turn into brightness of noon. And he will always guide you and satisfy you with good things. He will keep you strong and well, you will be like a garden that has plenty of water like a spring of water that never goes dry. Your people will rebuild what has long been in ruins, building again on old foundations. You will be known as the people who rebuilt the walls, who restored the ruined houses.
2 Corinthians 8: 6-14 – Everyone who sows sparely shall reap sparely as well as well as anyone who sows generously shall reap generously as well. Each one should give as much as he has decided on his own initiative, not reluctantly or under compulsion, God loves a cheerful giver. God is perfectly able to enrich your needs. You through the testimony of your ministry glorify God by the obedience of your faith and profession of the Gospel of Christ Jesus and by the simplicity of communion for them and for all. And by the supplication on your behalf earnestly desires your good because of his excelling grace of God upon you.
