What does our Lord say? Genesis 6:21 NKJV And you shall take yourselves of all food that is eaten, and you shall gather it to yourself; and it shall be food for you and for them. Proverbs 6:6-11 NKJV Go to the ant, you sluggard! Consider her ways and be wise. Which, having no captain, overseer or ruler, provides her supplies in the summer, and gathers her food in the harvest. How long will you slumber, oh sluggard? When will you rise from your sleep? A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep. So shall your poverty come on you like a prowler, and you need like an armed man. 1 Timothy 5:8 NKJV But if anyone does not provide for his own, and especially for those of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever. Proberbs 27:12 NKJV A prudent foresees evil and hides himself; the simple pass on and are punished.
