BELIEVERS BE ATTITUDES Series| BEATITUDES (4)| CHIMDI OHAHUNA.
Bible Text: Matthew 5
1 And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him:
2 And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying,
3 Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
4 Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.
5. Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.
6 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.
The first "be attitude" of the believer is to need God very much as a child of God. Never have enough of Christ. The second "be attitude" (Beatitude) reveals how we enjoy comfort via the person of the Holy Spirit. The third reveals how Meekness helps us in times of emotional highs to not curse God or hurt others. Meekness speaks/reveals the believer's absolute faith in God.
This episode covers the fourth "be attitude"- Hunger for Righteousness (HFR) & Thirst for Righteousness (TFR). The blessing of God is made available to believers in different categories. The manifestation of the blessing is the proof that indeed we've been blessed.
The thirst for righteousness TFR is the sincere milk of the word of God. Drinking fluid cannot take the place of food in the body. You may be hydrated but not nourished. The thirst for righteousness is the need to be hydrated in the spiritual.
Hunger for righteousness, HFR gives us strength. If our strength fails... Is needed to stand in the evil day & the devices of the enemy. This is needed to exercise & appropriate the righteousness of God. HFR is the source of empowerment to exercise our place in Christ Jesus. Aldo used to pull down strongholds.
TFR & HFR are needed to fully live the life of Christ and help us work the works of God. Pray for grace to discern when you TFR & HFR, so we can go for filling & more filling with the righteousness of God.
Listen to this episode as a family and learn great lessons from the first Beatitude taught by our Lord Jesus Christ.
Jesus is Lord.
