Modern American "Prosperity Gospel" Christians have shitcanned that teaching of the Psalms and of Jesus Christ. They are ravening wolves in sheep's clothing.

Psalm 41-1
"Blessed is he who has regard for the weak; the LORD delivers him in times of trouble"

Acts 20:35:
“In all things I have shown you that by working hard in this way we must help the weak and remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he himself said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’”

Paul
"We then, who are strong, ought to bear with the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves."
