The whole Universe consists of elements which are mutually dependent on one another.

Creatures in different animals, interact with each other, and complement each other directly or indirectly.

The Grass grows for the Cow. The Cow defecates and its faeces becomes manure for the Grass.

Man exhales carbon dioxide and inhales oxygen from plants. Plants inhale carbon dioxide exhaled from man.

God fashioned the world such that its elements would be dependent on one another.

Mankind is not exempted from this.

We were created to be mutually dependent on one another. We were created to help one another.

The problem of today’s society is that we all want helpers, but very few want to be Helpers.

Everyone wants help, but only a few wants to help. Such a person who finds it difficult to help others, will never find generous helpers in his life.

The key to an outflow of Helpers from God is in helping others.

In Esther, we are introduced to a young lady, taken captive into a strange land, along with her uncle.

Her parents were killed in a siege on her Homeland. Hence, she was an orphan, in a strange land, living with her Uncle.

Mordecai was the Uncle of Esther. He was not a buoyant man. Rather, he was a poor gate man who served at the gates of the King’s Palace.

Despite the fact that this man wasn’t financially buoyant, he took Esther into his custody and took very good care of her.

His care and good wish for Esther made him to get her involved in the Beauty pageant held to determine the King’s new wife.

The Bible tells us that even while Esther was in the palace, under the custody of Hegar, Mordecai would come to check on Esther from time to time.

In his wit, he saw that Esther revealing her Jewish identity bluntly would greatly affect her chances of Winning. Hence, he instructed her not to reveal her identity to anyone.

Mordecai was not just a guardian to Esther. He was her mentor, coach, guide and Instructor. He helped this orphan girl as much as she could.

Years later, this orphan child, whom he had helped when she had no one to support her, became the Queen of the most powerful Empire in his days.

The Child who he had live with him when she had no one to live with, now had her permanent residence in the palace of the King.

Such is life, beloved.

The one who is seeking your help today might become your helper tomorrow.

The help you render today, are seeds that will guarantee you receive help whenever you need it.

There’s no act so Noble, nothing so great as helping others.

Proverbs 19:17: “Whoever is kind to the poor lends to the Lord, and he will reward them for what they have done.”

The Bible places giving amongst the most sacred of Christian activities. God declares in His Word, that when we give to the poor, we lend to Him.

On one hand, we are giving our skills and financial resources to the poor. On the other hand, Heaven records whatever you are giving, as something lent to God.

Man would say, ‘I gave XYZ amount of money to the poor’.

But in heaven, it is recorded as, ‘Mr Man lent XYZ amount of money to God. To be paid back with interest in due time’

If the Government of some countries pays back charity organizations for the donations they make every year; how won’t the government of heaven reward you bountifully for the money you’ve lent to them.

Hebrews 13:16: “And do not forget to do good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices God is pleased.”

Now is the time for us to release our help like never before. You do not need to have millions of dollars in your bank account before you give.

Give from the little you have. That is what makes it a Sacrifice. And as seen in that sacrifice, it is such Sacrifice that is pleasing unto God.

God Bless You.
