Deuteronomy15:11

11 For the poor shall never cease out of the land : therefore I command thee, saying, Thou shalt open thine hand wide unto thy brother, to thy poor, and to thy needy in the land.

God by his providence will so order it, partly for the punishment of your disobedience, and partly for the trial and exercise of your obedience to me and charity to your brother, both which are best discovered by your performance of costly duties.
