KNOWING THE SPIRIT

I AM CALLED TO PREACH THE WORD OF GOD:
Spirit understands spirit. The only time anyone can understand a spiritual leader is when that person is in the same Rim of spiritual faith with the other. When the anointing is upon me,is only God and people with spiritual insight can knows the difference. As Isaiah said, 61 The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me; because the Lord hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound; 2 To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn. Is. 61:1-


THIS IS THE WORD OF GOD:
³ To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that he might be glorified.

⁴ And they shall build the old wastes, they shall raise up the former desolations, and they shall repair the waste cities, the desolations of many generations.

⁵ And strangers shall stand and feed your flocks, and the sons of the alien shall be your plowmen and your vinedressers.

⁶ But ye shall be named the Priests of the Lord: men shall call you the Ministers of our God: ye shall eat the riches of the Gentiles, and in their glory shall ye boast yourselves.

⁷ For your shame ye shall have double; and for confusion they shall rejoice in their portion: therefore in their land they shall possess the double: everlasting joy shall be unto them.

⁸ For I the Lord love judgment, I hate robbery for burnt offering; and I will direct their work in truth, and I will make an everlasting covenant with them.

⁹ And their seed shall be known among the Gentiles, and their offspring among the people: all that see them shall acknowledge them, that they are the seed which the Lord hath blessed.

¹⁰ I will greatly rejoice in the Lord, my soul shall be joyful in my God; for he hath clothed me with the garments of salvation, he hath covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom decketh himself with ornaments, and as a bride adorneth herself with her jewels.

¹¹ For as the earth bringeth forth her bud, and as the garden causeth the things that are sown in it to spring forth; so the Lord God will cause righteousness and praise to spring forth before all the nations.

I AM A RADICAL PREACHER, I DO NOT ADD OR TAKE AWAY FROM THE WORD OF GOD.

QUOTE OF THE DAY

Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; year, I will up hold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.

Isaiah 41:10
We know that God is not a spirit of fear, he is a spirit of power and strength. God bless you.

WE FED THE POOR

Good morning my brothers and sisters; I hope you had a awesome Thanksgiving's Day yesterday. We had a wonderful Thanksgiving's Day. We cooked and fed the poor and the needy in our community. I must confess, we didn't have enough food to feed them, they were too many of them. Nonetheless, we did our best. In addition, I thank all the members at "The Living Word of God Fivefold Prayer Universal Mini...

stries," and visiting friends who worked with us to fulfill this mission. God bless all of you.
This year I intend not to post the poor people's pictures on facebook, to protect their privacy. God sees and he knows there needs. We pray that each year we will be able to feed more and more of these poor people.
Have a bless day.

GOD BLESSED THOSE WHO CARE FOR THE POOR

Psalm 41

King James Version (KJV)

41 Blessed is he that considereth the poor: the Lord will deliver him in time of trouble.

² The Lord will preserve him, and keep him alive; and he shall be blessed upon the earth: and thou wilt not deliver him unto the will of his enemies.
³ The Lord will strengthen him upon the bed of languishing: thou wilt make all his bed in his sickness.
⁴ I said, Lord, be merciful unto me: heal my soul; for I have sinned against thee.
⁵ Mine enemies speak evil of me, When shall he die, and his name perish?
⁶ And if he come to see me, he speaketh vanity: his heart gathereth iniquity to itself; when he goeth abroad, he telleth it.
⁷ All that hate me whisper together against me: against me do they devise my hurt.
⁸ An evil disease, say they, cleaveth fast unto him: and now that he lieth he shall rise up no more.
⁹ Yea, mine own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, which did eat of my bread, hath lifted up his heel against me.
¹⁰ But thou, O Lord, be merciful unto me, and raise me up, that I may requite them.
¹¹ By this I know that thou favourest me, because mine enemy doth not triumph over me.
¹² And as for me, thou upholdest me in mine integrity, and settest me before thy face for ever.
¹³ Blessed be the Lord God of Israel from everlasting, and to everlasting. Amen, and Amen.
 

The good you do will live after you. God bless you.

 

 

JESUS IS THE ADVOCATE FOR THE POOR

BE LIKE JESUS, TAKE CARE OF THE POOR.

Jesus had a special sense of mission to poor and oppressed people. At the outset of his ministry, sometimes referred to as Jesus' mission statement, Jesus stood up in the synagogue at Nazareth and read from the prophet Isaiah:
"The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to release the oppressed, to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor." (Luke 4:18-19)
The biographies of Jesus depict him repeatedly reaching out to those at the bottom of the social pyramid--poor people, women, Samaritans, lepers, children, prostitutes and tax collectors. Jesus was also eager to accept people who were well-placed, but he made clear that all, regardless of social position, needed to repent. For this reason, he invited the rich young man to sell all of his possessions and give the proceeds to the poor. (Matthew 19:16-30, Luke 18:18-30, Mark 10:17-31)
Jesus commanded, "Love your neighbor." When asked to define "neighbor," Jesus expanded the traditional meaning of the word--defining our neighbor as anyone who is in need, including social outcasts: "But when you give a banquet, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind, and you will be blessed." (Luke 14:13)
In his portrayal of the day of judgment, Jesus pictured people from all nations gathered before him, separated into "sheep" and "goats." (Matthew 25:31-46) To the "sheep" he says, "Come you blessed of my Father, for I was hungry and you fed me..." In their astonishment they ask, "When did we do that?" And he answers, "When you did it to the lowliest of my brothers (and sisters)." Conversely, to the "goats" he says, "Out of my sight, you who are condemned, for I was hungry and you did not feed me..."
Jesus himself cared for those in need by feeding the hungry. Crowds of four thousand (Mark 8:1-13) and five thousand (Mark 6:30-44) had assembled to listen to Jesus. They soon became hungry. When his disciples suggested that Jesus send the people away to buy food, he responded by saying "I have compassion on these people..." and "you give them something to eat." He proceeded to perform miracles to feed these large crowds of hungry people.

Keil and Delitzsch Biblical Commentary on the Old Testament
Appearance and Message of the Angel of the Lord. - Joshua 5:13-15. When Joshua was by Jericho, בּיריחו, lit., in Jericho (בּ expressing immediate proximity, the entrance as it were into some other object, vid., Ewald, 217), - that is to say, inside it in thought, meditating upon the conquest of it-he saw, on lifting up his eyes, a man standing before him with a drawn sword in his hand; and on going up to him, and asking, "Dost thou belong to us or to our enemies?" he received this reply: "Nay (לא is not to be altered into לו, which is the reading adopted in the Sept., Syr., and a few MSS), but I am the prince of the army of Jehovah; now I am come." The person who had appeared neither belonged to the Israelites nor to their enemies, but was the prince of the army of Jehovah, i.e., of the angels. "The Lord's host" does not mean "the people of Israel, who were just at the commencement of their warlike enterprise," as v. Hofmann supposes; for although the host of Israel who came out of Egypt are called "the hosts of the Lord" in Exodus 12:41, the Israelites are never called the host or army of Jehovah (in the singular). "The host of Jehovah" is synonymous with "the host of heaven" (1 Kings 22:19), and signifies the angels, as in Psalm 148:2 and Psalm 103:21. With the words "now I am come," the prince of the angels is about to enter upon an explanation of the object of his coming; but he is interrupted in his address by Joshua, who falls down before him, and says, "What saith my lord to his servant?" so that now he first of all commands Joshua to take off his shoes, as the place on which he stands is holy. It by no means follows that because Joshua fell down upon the ground and ישׁתּחוּ (Eng. Ver. "did worship"), he must have recognised him at once as the angel of the Lord who was equal with God; for the word השׁתּחוה, which is connected with the falling down, does not always mean divine worship, but very frequently means nothing more than the deep Oriental reverence paid by a dependant to his superior or king (e.g., 2 Samuel 9:6; 2 Samuel 14:33), and Joshua did not address the person who appeared to him by the name of God, אדני, but simply as אדני, "My lord." In any case, however, Joshua regarded him at once as a superior being, i.e., an angel. And he must have recognised him as something more than a created angel of superior rank, that is to say, as the angel of Jehovah who is essentially equal with God, the visible revealer of the invisible God, as soon as he gave him the command to take off his shoes, etc. - a command which would remind him of the appearance of God to Moses in the burning bush, and which implied that the person who now appeared was the very person who had revealed himself to Moses as the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. (On the meaning of the command to take off the shoes, see the exposition of Exodus 3:5.) The object of the divine appearance was indicated by the drawn sword in the hand (cf. Numbers 22:31), by which he manifested himself as a heavenly warrior, or, as he describes himself to Joshua, as prince of the army of Jehovah. The drawn sword contained in itself this practical explanation: "I am now come with my heavenly army, to make war upon the Canaanites, and to assist thee and thy people" (Seb. Schmidt). It was not in a vision that this appearance took place, but it was an actual occurrence belonging to the external world; for Joshua saw the man with the drawn sword at a certain distance from himself, and went up to him to address him, - a fact which would be perfectly incompatible with an inward vision.

JESUS WILL NOT CALL A CHICKEN TO PREACH

kNOWING MY GOD IN CALLING PEOPLE TO WORK FOR HIS KINGDOM, HE WILL NEVER CALL A CHICKEN, BECAUSE HE KNEW THAT CHICKEN CAN BE CRUSHED EASILY BY SOMEONE FOOT OR A ROCK. NOTWITHSTANDING, HE CALLED PEOPLE WHO HAS NO FEAR, FOR EXAMPLE,PAUL THE APOSTLE, JOSHUA, JEREMIAH, AND JOHN THE BAPTIST. HE KNEW THAT THEY WERE ABLE TO STAND IN THE FIRE FOR HIM. THOSE MEN WERE EAGLE; THEY COULD CHALLENGES ANY STORM THAT WILL WIN A SOUL FOR CHRIST.
TODAY MANY CHRISTIANS ARE AFRAID TO SPEAK THE TRUTH BECAUSE THEY ARE AFRAID THINGS WILL GO WRONG WITH THEM. THE CHRIST JESUS THAT I VOWED TO FOLLOW, NEVER WITHHOLD THE TRUTH BECAUSE HIS ENEMY WANTED TO KILLED HIM, HE LET THEM KNOW THAT HE WAS THE TRUTH AND THE LIGHT.
"Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." John 14:6. SINCERE CHRISTIANS SPEAKS ALWAYS STANDS FOR THE TRUTH.
John 1:17 For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. 1 John 5:20 We know also that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, so that we may know him who is true. And we are in him who is true--even in his Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life.
And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. John 8:32.

And it came to pass, when Joshua was by Jericho, that he lifted up his eyes and looked, and, behold, there stood a man over against him with his sword drawn in his hand: and Joshua went unto him, and said unto him, Art thou for us, or for our adversaries? http://bible.cc/joshua/5-13.htm

YOUR EVENING SCRIPTURE

Chapter 8

1 There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.
3 For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:
4 That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
5 For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit.
6 For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.
7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.
8 So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.
9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
10 And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.
11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.
12 Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh.
13 For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.
14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
15 For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.
16 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:
17 And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.
18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.
19 For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.
20 For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope,
21 Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.
22 For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now.
23 And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.
24 For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for?
25 But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it.
26 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.
27 And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.
28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.
29 For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.
30 Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified.
31 What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?
32 He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?
33 Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect? It is God that justifieth.
34 Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.
35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?
36 As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.
37 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.
38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,
39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Trusting firm promises with you in fragile times, Pastor John (Ref)

For the believer, “death is swallowed up in victory” (1Co 15:54), because for a believer death simply releases us into the presence of our Lord.

Spurgeon in fact once said that

Your dying hour will be the best hour you have ever known. Your last moment will be your richest. Better than the day of your birth will be the day of your death. It will be the beginning of heaven, the rising of a sun that will never go down forever. Let the fear of death be banished by faith in a living Savior.

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I fear no evil For Thou art with me.
Thy rod and Thy staff, they comfort me Psalm 23:4

Spurgeon has these comments on Psalm 23:4 (ref)...

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. This unspeakably delightful verse has been sung on many a dying bed, and has helped to make the dark valley bright times out of mind. Every word in it has a wealth of meaning.

Yea, though I walk, as if the believer did not quicken his pace when he came to die, but still calmly walked with God. To walk indicates the steady advance of a soul which knows its road, knows its end, resolves to follow the path, feels quite safe, and is therefore perfectly calm and composed. The dying saint is not in a flurry, he does not run as though he were alarmed, nor stand still as though he would go no further, he is not confounded nor ashamed, and therefore keeps to his old pace. Observe that it is not walking in the valley, but through the valley. We go through the dark tunnel of death and emerge into the light of immortality. We do not die, we do but sleep to wake in glory.

Death is not the house but the porch,
not the goal but the passage to it.

The dying article is called a valley. The storm breaks on the mountain, but the valley is the place of quietude, and thus full often the last days of the Christian are the most peaceful of his whole career; the mountain is bleak and bare, but the valley is rich with golden sheaves, and many a saint has reaped more joy and knowledge when he came to die than he ever knew while he lived. And, then, it is not "the valley of death," but the valley of the shadow of death, for death in its substance has been removed, and only the shadow of it remains. Some one has said that when there is a shadow there must be light somewhere, and so there is. Death stands by the side of the highway in which we have to travel, and the light of heaven shining upon him throws a shadow across our path; let us then rejoice that there is a light beyond. Nobody is afraid of a shadow, for a shadow cannot stop a man's pathway even for a moment. The shadow of a dog cannot bite; the shadow of a sword cannot kill; the shadow of death cannot destroy us. Let us not, therefore, be afraid.

I will fear no evil. He does not say there shall not be any evil; he had got beyond even that high assurance, and knew that Jesus had put all evil away; but "I will fear no evil;" as if even his fears, those shadows of evil, were gone for ever. The worst evils of life are those which do not exist except in our imagination. If we had no troubles but real troubles, we should not have a tenth part of our present sorrows. We feel a thousand deaths in fearing one, but the psalmist was cured of the disease of fearing. "I will fear no evil", not even the Evil One himself; I will not dread the last enemy, I will look upon him as a conquered foe, an enemy to be destroyed,

For thou art with me. This is the joy of the Christian! "Thou art with me." The little child out at sea in the storm is not frightened like all the other passengers on board the vessel, it sleeps in its mother's bosom; it is enough for it that its mother is with it; and it should be enough for the believer to know that Christ is with him. "Thou art with me; I have, in having thee, all that I can crave: I have perfect comfort and absolute security, for thou art with me."

Thy rod and thy staff, by which you govern and rule your flock, the ensigns of your sovereignty and of your gracious care -- they comfort me. I will believe that thou reignest still. The rod of Jesse shall still be over me as the sovereign succour of my soul.

Many persons profess to receive much comfort from the hope that they shall not die. Certainly there will be some who will be "alive and remain" at the coming of the Lord, but is there so very much of advantage in such an escape from death as to make it the object of Christian desire? A wise man might prefer of the two to die, for those who shall not die, but who "shall be caught up together with the Lord in the air," will be losers rather than gainers. They will lose that actual fellowship with Christ in the tomb which dying saints will have, and we are expressly told that they shall have no preference beyond those who are asleep. Let us be of Paul's mind when he said that "To die is gain", and think of "departing to be with Christ, which is far better." This twenty-third psalm is not worn out, and it is as sweet in a believer's ear now as it was in David's time, let novelty hunters say what they will. 2). FEAR OF FAILURE:

And so you reason that it is safer not to do anything, concluding "If I do it I will fail" and you become effectively immobilized. Click illustration of paralyzing effect of fear.

A W Pink adds that

Fear is the result of distrust, of taking the eye off God, of being unduly occupied with difficulties and troubles." (from An Exposition of Hebrews, page 808) (Click devotional)

When the servant of God obeys and trusts the Word of God, he or she need not fear failure. 1 Kings 19 records the http://www.preceptaustin.org/how_to_handle_fear_(1).htm

GOD'S WORDS

Shepherd Taylor

People of the most High God does not speak by self, they can only speak when God gives them the utterance. It is not you who lives but God that lives in you. This is Bibical Perspective.
Matthew 10:19 But when they arrest you, do not worry about what to say or how to say it. At that time you will be given what to say,
Matthew 10:20 for it will not be you speaking, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you.
Now therefore go, and I will be with thy mouth, and teach thee what thou shalt say. Ex. 4:12 GOD'S WORD... God bless you.

VOTE YOU CONSCIENCE

OUR MAIN OBJECTIVES SHOULD BE FOR THE POOR IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. WHEN PEOPLE ARE LIVING IN POVERTY AND UNABLE TO FIND THEIR FIRST MEAL FOR THE DAY, ALLOWS THEM TO COMMIT CRIMES THAT LEADS TO VIOLENCE.  TAKE FOR EXAMPLE, ALCOHOL, DRUGS AND ILLEGAL GUNS, THEY ARE DESTRUCTIVE TO OUR YOUTH, YET THE PEOPLE WHO ARE IN POWER CLOSED THEIR EYES AGAINST THESE DANGEROUS ELEMENTS THAT ARE DESTROYING LIVES.

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN OF AMERICA, WE NEED JUSTICE FOR THE POOR AND NEEDY IN AMERICA, ESPECIALLY THOSE IN THE INNER CITY. WE NEED THE GOVERNMENT TO CREATE JOBS FOR THE JOBLESS, EDUCATION FOR THE UNEDUCATED. WITHOUT THESE ELEMENTS, AMERICA WILL CONTINUE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH CRIME AND VIOLENCE. THE KEY WORD IS, VOTE YOUR CONSCIENCE. PREVENTURE, PUT YOURSELF IN THE POOR MAN'S PERSPECTIVE AND TELL ME HOW YOU FEEL. FOR EXAMPLE, LIVE DAILY WITHOUT FOOD, SLEEP ON THE STREET DAILY, STEAL TO FEED YOU STOMACH, AND BEEN  CAUGHT, LOCKED UP AND PUT IN PRISON, AND TELL ME HOW YOU FEEL ABOUT IT.?

NO ONE CAN SURVIVE WITHOUT RESOURCES, AND LACK OF RESOURCES BRINGS ONE INTO THE BURING GROUND OF POVERTY. THE POOR NEEDS YOU AMERICA, PLEASE DO NOT TURN YOUR BACK ON THEM. ALCOHAL AND DRUGS DAMAGES THE BRAIN, AND IT TAKES AWAY THE ABILITY OF ONE TO THINK STRAIT. ILLEGAL GUNS BRINGS ABOUT AN EARLY GRAVE FOR THE YOUTHS IN THE INNER CITIES. WE NEED PEOPLE WITH THE HEART OF COMPASSION TO HELP THE POOR. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN OF AMERICA, TODAY I AM ASKING YOU TO LOOK OUT FOR THE POOR AND THE NEEDY AND VOTE YOUR CONSCIENCE.  GOD BLESS ALL OF YOU.

GOD'S MERCY TOWARD US

 PSALM 85 Lord, thou hast been favourable unto thy land: thou hast brought back the captivity of Jacob.

² Thou hast forgiven the iniquity of thy people, thou hast covered all their sin. Selah.

³ Thou hast taken away all thy wrath: thou hast turned thyself from the fierceness of thine anger.

⁴ Turn us, O God of our salvation, and cause thine anger toward us to cease.

⁵ Wilt thou be angry with us for ever? wilt thou draw out thine anger to all generations?

⁶ Wilt thou not revive us again: that thy people may rejoice in thee?

⁷ Shew us thy mercy, O Lord, and grant us thy salvation.

⁸ I will hear what God the Lord will speak: for he will speak peace unto his people, and to his saints: but let them not turn again to folly.

⁹ Surely his salvation is nigh them that fear him; that glory may dwell in our land.

¹⁰ Mercy and truth are met together; righteousness and peace have kissed each other.

¹¹ Truth shall spring out of the earth; and righteousness shall look down from heaven.

¹² Yea, the Lord shall give that which is good; and our land shall yield her increase.

¹³ Righteousness shall go before him; and shall set us in the way of his st


When we trust in God, he promise to have mercy on us. Why don't we live by his words and he will give us the blessings that we desire.

Destruction of poverty:
Family Hardship and its Effects on Cognitive Development

Summary
Studies have shown that poor families and those who experience hardships have a negative impact on the cognitive development of the chi...

ldren. However, the timing and nature of such hardships and their exact effects is not known yet. This study aimed to look at the effects of financial difficulties on the cognitive development of five-year-old children. The results showed that continuous financial crunch of the family from a very early age may hamper the cognitive development of children. Instability of the family structure otherwise did not show similar harm.
