Topic: Blessedness Part 4: Blessed Are They Which Do Hunger And Thirst

Text: Matthew 5: 2-6

2And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying,

3Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

4Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.

5Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.

6Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.

Key Verse: “Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.” Matthew 5:6

Message

Hunger and thirst are considered the two strongest desires of living things. The basic effort of every government and family is to make sure their citizens or children are free from hunger and thirst. No child likes to be hungry. Hungry people are looked at with pity and disdain. Some people even say: “It is better to go naked than to go hungry.” But it is sad that people struggle so much to feed their body with food, and do everything to quench their thirst, but leave their soul starved of righteousness. Those who are spiritually poor, mournful and meek must be desperate to act like God and live like Him. The happiness in being hungry and thirsty after righteousness lies in the fact that God will satisfy such sincere desire. All our efforts and claim to be godly are of no value before God unless we are righteous in thoughts, words and actions.

God’s presence, His fear and daily drinking of the water of His word alone are necessary to keep you righteous and satisfy your spiritual thirst. Desire and pant after these and you will be filled.

Prayer for today: Lord, create a strong desire for You and Your word that I may be righteous all my life

GOSPEL REALM: STEPS TO SALVATION
1. Admit that you are a sinner. "For all [humans] have sinned, and comes short of the glory of God....[and] the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 3:23)
2. Repent now. "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out ...[for] if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness " (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:9)
3. Believe that God loves you and Jesus died for you. "God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet Sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8)
4. Invite Jesus into your life through prayer of faith. Jesus says, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20)
