Under Gods Command
Proverbs 19:17 He who is kind to the poor lends to the LORD, and he will reward him for what he has done.

Here God identifies with the poor as Jesus does in Matthew 25:31-46. As our Creator, God values all of us, whether we are poor or rich. When we help the poor, we honor both the Creator and his creation. God accepts our help as if we had offered it directly to him.
