    God’s message to the people of Israel reminds us of the need to rely upon His Spirit in the work we are doing today. We need to pray, trust Him and offer what little we have. Success is assured, not by human efforts but by the power of His Spirit.

    The poor in spirit understands that they are bankrupt before God. They have nothing to offer, nothing to plead, nothing with which to buy the favour of heaven. When we understand that, God can use us in a great way.

    The Beatitudes describe what every Christian ought to be. • Jesus says these are those who are truly blessed. • And He expects us to manifest these traits. • None of these traits are natural human tendencies; it is what we can become by the grace of God. • They are attainable and achievable ...read more
