“Pure and undefiled religion before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their trouble, and to keep oneself from the world.”
James 1:27
I heard this description: If a child is found by a real Christian, the child will be fed and cared for, and handed back to his parents.
“But Abraham said, ‘Son, remember that in your lifetime you received your good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things; but now he is comforted and you are tormented. And besides all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed, so that those who want to pass from here to you cannot, nor can those from there pass to us.’ ” Jesus in Luke 16:25-26
Ezekiel 22:30, “So I sought for a man among them who would make a wall, and stand in the gap before Me on behalf of the land, that I should not destroy it; but I found no one.”
“Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man is coming.” Jesus in Matthew 25:13
Derek Prince states:
Intercession is the coming between one who needs God and God. Jesus is the perfect intercessor. It’s not thinking of what you want to pray about, it’s opening yourself to the Lord through the Holy Spirit and letting Him share His burden with you.
There’s more than one easy answer!
Jesus says: “Therefore, whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets.” in Matthew 7:12

From “Don’t Give Up,” Derek Prince: Moses was the most powerful person on the earth behind Jesus. He waited 40 years tending sheep. We also need to cultivate meekness. The key to promotion in the Kingdom is to abase yourself.
“Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.” Matthew 11:29 (KJV)
“Then one was brought to Him who was demon-possessed, blind and mute; and He healed him, so that the [a]blind and mute man both spoke and saw. 23 And all the multitudes were amazed and said, ‘Could this be the Son of David?’
“24 Now when the Pharisees heard it they said, ‘This fellow does not cast out demons except by Beelzebub, the ruler of the demons.’
“25 But Jesus knew their thoughts, and said to them: ‘Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand. 26 If Satan casts out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then will his kingdom stand? 27 And if I cast out demons by Beelzebub, by whom do your sons cast them out? Therefore they shall be your judges. 28 But if I cast out demons by the Spirit of God, surely the kingdom of God has come upon you.’ ” Matthew 12:22-28
“In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace” Ephesians 1:7
“For if the blood of bulls and goats and the ashes of a heifer, sprinkling the unclean, sanctifies for the purifying of the flesh, 14 how much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?” Hebrews 9:13-14
“But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin. 8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 9 If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” 1 John 1:7-9
“By that will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.” Hebrews 10:11
I need Jesus. Some churches do a corporate fast and prayer or Daniel fast at the beginning of each year.
