FIRST OBLIGATION
Our
duties to God first reflect in our duties to our home. We must first learn to
care for our nuclear and extended family before going to the society. It’s
wrong for the society to know you as a generous/holy/anointed etc. person when
the immediate members of your nuclear or extended family have never enjoyed
generosity/holiness/God’s grace etc. from you.
Charity
they say begins at home; love, care, attention etc. should also begin at home.
Before taking out what you have, first give to the immediate family. Christ
during the miracle of the bread first gave to his apostles and then the
multitudes, yes, begin your orphanage care from your home, village, community
and then the rest of the world as the Lord leads.
1Ti
5:8 But if any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own
house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel.
If
you can’t provide for your own people, even when you think you are feeding the
world, then you have denied the faith and worse than an unbeliever.
Don’t
forget your mother and father don’t forget you siblings and cousins, don’t
forget your land etc. if God has placed it in your hand, let the members of
your household enjoy. Let your charity truely begin at home. You are truely
respected when the respect originates from home to abroad and not only abroad.
God
bless you.
