- Loss of ordained promotion, 2 Chronicles 12:22-23
- Divine dispossession of previous gains, Genesis 19:32. Lot refused to win Sodom but won the hearts of his daughters
- Overtaken by hatred and evil, 1 Samuel 16:14-15. King Saul kept on hating David that would have sustained his lineage.
- Denial of one’s children from getting helping hands.
- It is disobedience to divine order

SUMMARY: Helping others is divinely programmed to give orders to humanity.
