    The first step of a blessed life is the recognition that we are poor in spirit, that we have a deep need in our lives, a need caused by our sin. The second step is to mourn over our sin.

    BLESSED ARE THOSE WHO MOURN Matthew 5:4 The first beatitude confronted us with our deep need. "Blessed are the poor in spirit." The first step towards God is the recognition that we are sinners in desperate need of a Savior. That idea is frowned upon by the world today. However it is the ...read more

    WHAT ARE YOU THIRSTY FOR? Matt 5:6 D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones wrote, "If every man and woman in the world knew what it was to ’hunger and thirst after righteousness’ there would be no danger of war."

    So in asking you “How is your heart?”, I am not talking about the physical organ in your body. Rather, I am asking you about your moral and spiritual nature. How are things with you spiritually?

    based on 48 ratings

    Jesus Christ came into the world so that we might be reconciled to God. Those he has reconciled have been called to become agents of his peace in the world. How can we become peacemakers?

    THE PEACEMAKERS Matthew 5:9 Every believer is to be a peacemaker both in the church and in the community. Christians should never seek conflict or be responsible for it. Yet, we find that conflict if often the result of one’s coming to Jesus Christ. For example, a college professor shared his ...read more

    As we examine this beatitude, let’s note some ways true believers are persecuted and what our reaction to persecution should be.

    Do you remember pot-bellied pigs? They were one of the passing fads from the 1980s – that decade when all of us had big hair, big glasses and really fuzzy sweaters. Some of us also had pot-bellied pigs. Around our house, pigs were for eating and not for petting. The “pet pig craze” never caught ...read more

    “You have not passed this way before.” “Sanctify yourselves, for tomorrow the LORD will do wonders among you.” We are to spiritually prepare ourselves for what God has in store for us.
