Matthew 5:6 - 4th Beatitude
Gospel of MatthewSteve Gregg
In this discourse, Steve Gregg highlights the fourth Beatitude of Jesus, "Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be filled." He emphasizes that this hunger and thirst are not just for material needs, but also for something spiritual, and those who are continually seeking righteousness and remain unsatisfied in the world are blessed. He encourages the listeners to strive for contentment and resignation to God's will, while still actively pursuing their high calling. Ultimately, Jesus is describing someone who is deeply hungry and thirsty for righteousness, and they will be blessed for their yearning.
