What does the Bible say about God's call to the poor and needy?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible emphasizes that God calls the poor, the maimed, the lame, and the blind, illustrating His grace towards those who cannot repay Him.

In Luke 14:12-14, Jesus instructs His followers to invite the poor and disabled to their feasts, highlighting a divine principle of grace and mercy. This call represents God's heart for those who are unable to repay kindness or generosity, illustrating His unconditional love and grace. When God calls the poor and needy, He acknowledges their inability to earn His favor, reaffirming that salvation comes through grace alone, not through human merit. This is in line with the teachings throughout Scripture that God seeks those who are humble and aware of their spiritual poverty (Matthew 5:3).
