Advent Calendar 2025 and Prayer Diary

Orphans and Vulnerable Children
Every year you are to give ten percent of your harvest to the LORD. But every third year, this ten percent must be given to the poor who live in your town, including Levites, foreigners, orphans, and widows. That way, they will have enough to eat. Deuteronomy 26 v12.
Religion that pleases God the Father must be pure and spotless. You must help needy orphans and widows and not let this world make you evil. James 1 v27.

Listen and sing along (opens in YouTube)
Ding dong merrily on high.

Daily Bible reading: Psalm 10 v12-18

12 Do something, LORD God,
and use your powerful arm to help those in need.
13 The wicked don’t respect you.
In their hearts they say, “God won’t punish us!”

14 But you see the trouble and the distress,
and you will do something.
The poor can count on you, and so can orphans.
15 Now break the arms of all merciless people.
Punish them for doing wrong and make them stop.

16 Our LORD, you will always rule,
but nations will vanish from the earth.
17 You listen to the longings of those who suffer.
You offer them hope,
and you pay attention to their cries for help.
18 You defend orphans and everyone else in need,
so that no one on earth can terrify others again.
