'More than Anything Else' — Matthew 5:6

[Jesus continued:]
"God blesses those who hunger and thirst for justice,
for they will be satisfied."
— Matthew 5:6 NLT

Key Thought

Other translations use the wording, "hunger and thirst for righteousness," where this translation refers to those who "hunger and thirst for justice."* Except for a voluntary fast, most of us who spend our time on the internet don't know what it's like to be really hungry. But nearly all of us, at one time or another, have been very, very thirsty! To hunger and thirst for righteousness and justice is to want what pleases, honors, and reflects God more than anything else. To be righteous becomes our consuming passion. This spiritual commitment takes on a primal drive, much like hunger and thirst drive us physically. Like so many of these beatitudes in Matthew 5:3-11, finding our lives in God, his nature, and his character is our only path to true and lasting fulfillment.

* The same Greek word is sometimes translated "righteousness" and sometimes "justice" in a particular version of the New Testament. For example, Matthew 10:41 has the same basic Greek word as Matthew 5:6.

Today's Prayer

Holy and Righteous Father, while I know I can never even approximate the edges of your righteous character, please use the Holy Spirit to make me into the person who reflects your holiness to those around me. Where I am inconsistent, please help me become faithful. Where I am tempestuous and undisciplined, please bless me with self-control. Where I am insensitive and unfeeling, please help me see life from the point of view of others. O Father, I so much want to please and honor you in what I say and do. Thank you for your grace. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.

*_Day 121_*

In my eyes am closer to GOD, but in GOD'S eyes am far away from him.
What does it mean to be closer to GOD ALMIGHTY ? To be closer to GOD is to spend time with him, by studying HIS WORDS, prayer and intercession and living by his TRUE HOLINESS AND RIGHTEOUSNESS LIVING
What is this HOLINESS? HOLINESS in my dressing,my appearance both physical and spiritual, my speech, my character, my heart, feeling emotions and thought, my marriage, my secret life, HOLINESS in what I do and say, HOLINESS in everything

PRAYER

*Dear God, thank You for another day. Thank You for waking us up and giving us another chance to walk in our purposes. Thank You for every breath, every blessing, and every way You continue to show up for us. So many people have turned away from each and every one of us, but You’ve never changed. You’ve never left. Your word in Deuteronomy 31:6 says, “Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; He will never leave you nor forsake you.” Today we ask for strength to face whatever is ahead of us. Help us to stand strong, not in our own ability, but with confidence that You are with us through it all. No weapon formed against us will prosper, because You’ve already gone before us to prepare the way for us. Give us Your strength and peace, and help us face this day knowing that You have already given us the victory. In Jesus’ name, Amen!*

*"You are my hiding place; You will protect me from trouble and surround me with songs of deliverance."* *-Psalm 32:7*

Beak the Limit of Worries (2)

Text: _Do not be anxious about anything. Instead, in every situation, through prayer and petition with thanksgiving, tell your requests to God._ (Phil. 4:6 NET)

Anxiety and fear will be multiplied as YOU THINK about the problem. The Peace of God will overflow in your heart as you think about His Word for the situation. Take a moment and meditate on the verses in this study, and let them rule your mind all day today. The secret to overcoming worry every day is trusting that God cares for you and that He will take care of whatever is causing you anxiety- “casting all your cares on him because he cares for you”. (1 Pet. 5:7 NET). You cast your cares on Him by trusting Him to make a way out. This is God’s design for you to overcome worry every day. As you trust God, the impossible happens. When you trust, you cease worrying. There is no need for you and God to “worry” about the same thing. You trust and let Him “worry about” what to do with the situation! Of course we know that God does not worry – He solves the issues. Let Him!

Remember that the key to overcoming worry is to DO what God has said. It is not just doing it mechanically but in trust and faith. No matter how long you have prayed or studied the scriptures, nothing happens until you DO the Word. God’s Word to overcome worry is not some tedious commandments like fasting for 40 days that you will think I just cannot do that today. It is simple - “Do not be anxious about anything. Instead, in every situation, through prayer and petition with thanksgiving, tell your requests to God”. (Phil. 4:6 NET). Do His Word today and see that it works. Rather than worry where that money will come from, just do what this scripture says - refuse to worry, pray about it and thank God for hearing you. It sounds too simplistic, right? Yes, because God is the One doing it and not you!

Pray:
Ask the Spirit to help you keep your mind on God rather than that financial need, pain, relationship crises etc.

*_because of the hope which is laid up for you in the heavens, of which you heard before in the word of the truth of the Gospel,_*
Colossians 1:5

*Prayer :*

Thank You for a great inheritance reserved for me in heaven. Thank You for the hope that message has given me even at the most difficult times.

May this blessed hope overflow in love for our brothers and sisters in Christ.

Teach me not to get caught up in the worldly pursuits. Give me a proper perspective and help me align my life with Your will.
In Jesus' name, I pray.

*_Happy Sabbath_*

'Extending Mercy' — Matthew 5:7

[Jesus continued:]
"God blesses those who are merciful,
for they will be shown mercy."— Matthew 5:7 NLT

Key Thought

God treats us much, much better than we deserve. That fundamental, undergirding spiritual truth is the reality of grace. He has seen us in our sin and had mercy on us because of his great love for us (see Romans 5:6-11). Even though we have repeatedly proved unfaithful and undependable, both individually and as a group, God has been gracious and merciful. He has repeatedly offered forgiveness, help, redemption, and salvation when we least deserved it. Rather than dealing with us strictly as law would demand, God has dealt with us as a loving father does with his children. This conditioning reality must show up in us also. How can we claim to be his children and not be merciful? How can we call for retribution against our brothers and sisters, when fairness would demand we pay a great penalty for our sin? In the Kingdom family, mercy rules. When that mercy is forgotten by us, then God has promised to use our standard of mercilessness when he judges us (Matthew 7:1-2). Yet as long as we are merciful to others, God will show us mercy.

Today's Prayer

Holy and righteous Father, I confess that I often want justice when I am violated and mercy when I sin. Thank you for not treating me as I deserve, but instead providing Jesus to be the atoning sacrifice that extends your mercy to me and fulfills your justice on my behalf. Soften my heart that I may reflect your grace and mercy in my dealings with those who have injured me. In the precious name of Jesus, I pray. Amen.
