Deuteronomy 15:1-23
Every seven years you must cancel debts. Every creditor shell cancel he loan the has made to his fellow Israelite.
Be careful not yo harbor the wicked though:"The seventh year, the year for canceling debts, is near," so that you do not show ill will toward your needy brother and give him nothing.
Be generously to your brothers and do so without a grudging heart; then because of this the Lord your God will bless you in all your work and in everything you put your hand to.
If a fellow Hebrew, a man or woman, sells himself to you and serves you six years, in the seventh year you must let him go free. And when you release him, do not send him away empty-handed. Remember that you were slaves in Egypt and the Lord your God redeemed you.
Do not consider it a hardship to set your servant free, because his service to you these six years has been worth twice as much as that of a hired hand.
The firstborn animals have to be set apart for the Lord your God and do not put the firstborn of your oxen to work, and do not shear the firstborn of you sheep.
Why?
The Lord asked us to be generosity to every poor man, our property is because of the blessing of the Lord. When we be generously to other brothers, the Lord will bless us get more.
We were the slavery of sin, now we can do more to the sinner, bring them to Jesus be free. Now we are the servant of the Lord. All of the property is the Lord lend to us temporary in this world. To be a good servant in the house of the Lord.
How?
Be generously to others, for the poor childhood and struggling in past a few years we might thought it was earned by my strength, remember if the Lord did not gave us the chance and blessed us, how can we earned these? How can we are living until now? Praise to the Lord. Thanks his giving.
